    What would he cost though? Saints already likely to have picks 4 & 5 if you believe the press re: Battle compensation, so they'll play hardball Still think its best to use early picks on promising mids.

    Fair enough, i dont know all the behavioral ins and outs - just looking at a football and list POV. I know he's not elite but still think there are some benefits given our list want/needs - especially if its a salary dump from the Dogs etc. Worst case its 2 years at Casey doing a Schache.

    What do you consider a good goal return for a (secondary) small forward like Kade? Kicked 12.6 this year. No doubt if we were a bit more fluid and functional it would be a higher number. No chance for me they drop a player 3rd at the club for tackles. Would like to see Kolt, Milky and Kade in the same line up.

    I tend to ignore certain parts of AFL footy not associated to my team, what are the cultural elements for Lobb? I'm still not against Lobb if the Dogs are fitting some of the bill. Assume we're next year we're down Tomlinson, JSmith, J Schache, Ben Brown TMac? I'm not sure how long Fullarton is signed for either Petty long term ? it's not the worst addition for depth/occasional game - relieves some pressure on Jeffo/Verral/Adams/Turner etc, Sounds like Lobb wants a regular spot so we may not have that on the table for him either way. Also mindful that we need to be drafting some gun mids. I know we're linked with Josh Battle but so are Hawks and Collingwood and not sure how we'd go there. Was reading on FoxFooty that the compensation band for him may end up Tier 1 as well giving Saints Picks 4 & 5 (at present) - Not a bad result for them I guess.

    Has he been spotted in rehab groups at training?
  6. Ah apologies, missed that in the EOFY madness. Thanks
  7. Not that there was malice with Trac, but Moore's knee taking no prisoners in 2024. We can get a slightly better look at Ned Moyle at least.

    If we want to be unpredictable we need Sam Frost back. A true excitement machine, a football maverick, when he has the ball who knows what he will do next

    And another live track from my favourite artist of the last 5 years or so, The Bones of J.R Jones.

    These guys probably been my most played artist of the last year, two brothers just playing some sweet western/Latin American instrumental tunes. Recorded live the other day.
  12. This coupled with Klopp leaving, hope you've picked up a new hobby! All the best bro!
  13. I might be wrong here but remember last year reading we were the highest scoring 4th quarter team? Last 2 weeks we haven't gotten a goal in the last 2 weeks. Wonder what's changed? Apart from a little more inexperience in the team.
  14. panicked but also didn't disguise it at all
  15. I blew up in the group chat and the neutrals weren't having it
  16. Didn't look out of place, what happens when Salo is back though?
  17. 5 Contested Marks, just flip him to the other end.
  18. Thought we'd lose the game by 6-8 goals. Ended up shaking and nervous in the final minutes. Some fellas stepped up that game yes we missed a few, but Brisbane had a few peanut brain moments in the forward line as well. Little unlucky the May mark on the wing wasn't called. Also did Rivers run too far?
  19. Feel for K Brown, bit stiff being omitted after 10 minutes, can only imagine they wanted him getting more playing time in the 2s as opposed to being sub again. Hopefully we see him back in for the eagles game.
  20. Brown with 2 key involvements there, onya pup

    Have they said much about Spargo? A month ago he was changed from 2-3 weeks to TBC and has remained on TBC since.
  22. Wish this extended to opposition fans at games, some of the things I've heard have been deplorable.
  23. We're regularly having low disposal games from forwards - pretty much everyone has fallen victim to it this season, some repeatedly. Would love someone smarter than me to pin point it. Midfield game plan? Midfield disposal efficiency issue? Playing people in forwardline w/o the nous for it?
  24. Re: Fullarton i think we all need to remember what was said when we drafted him in “We’re really hopeful Tom’s got a lot of development in him," Lamb told AFL Trade Radio. “As the year sort of rolled on we thought we might need some backup in that area of the ground.” Hopeful development and back up!
  25. I tune into Casey games every so often so not fully aware of all the depth in the other teams. But its interesting to me that Carlton. Collingwood, Essendon are also low on the ladder despite doing well in the AFL. I know collingwood have had some injuries, but what does that say (if anything) about the depth of Carlton and Essendon?
