To make it a little more interesting for Brisbane

Always love your excel work @Lucifers Hero I did the squiggle ladder predicter a few weeks ago and it had us finishing 12th, now it has us finishing 8th. It has us losing to Freo, gold coast and Collingwood but beating GWS, Dogs, Port, Collingwood have a very tough run, would love to demolish them in the last round and secure finals for us and keep them out of the 8.

Hopefully SG considers this when deciding who should be primary ruck

Are the dogs trying to build the tallest list possible

The timing of it all is unfortunate, i know a player may want to push surgery back etc. If the decision was made sooner might have been able to have another pick in the mid-season draft

For me (aside from chips) it depends on the kick off and what i'm doing pre-game as to whether I will grab anything substantive at the game. Royal Stacks in the MCC not a bad option tho tbh.

Only the first bit!

Is it true that this thread has sparked my interest?

Any recruiting manager will have hits and misses. Taylor doing a good job at the moment, perhaps we hold him in slightly higher esteem due to the drafting which occurred before him.

Just looking at that year, Stats as follows Ruck Contest/Hit outs R1 - 24/4 R2 - 20/2 R3 - 14/5 R4 - 23/6 R5 - 14/6 R6 - 19/7 R7 - 13/1 R8 - 47/4 R9 - 10/1 R10 - 17/3 R11 - 15/2 R12 - 16/5 R13 - 13/2 R14 - BYE R15 - 17/4 R16 - 16/1 R17 - 16/4 R18 - 0/0 R19 - 0/0 R20 - 0/0 R21 - 0/0 R22 - 0/0 R23 - 0/0 FW1 - Did not Play SF - 12/0 PF - 22/1 GF - 11/0 So Total of 339/58. Whoever we put up is going to have a difficult evening though.

Coaches vote - good to see the young brigade represented Melbourne v West Coast 10 Trent Rivers (MELB) 7 Jacob Van Rooyen (MELB) 7 Caleb Windsor (MELB) 2 Ed Langdon (MELB) 2 Judd McVee (MELB) 1 Kysaiah Pickett (MELB) 1 Tom McDonald (MELB)

I went up a few years ago, didnt sit with the cheer squad cos had some Queenslanders with me. Small stadium so most seats are pretty good IMO

He also gets in a lot of good goal scoring positions but is burnt a bunch too.

The MRO once Demonland is happy again

Spin that roulette wheel I guess.

Stage set for Fullarton, but any chance they'd do Petty for Max and just run the Disco/JvR/Petty through? Saves a tough call on Turner this week. is 3 pinch-hitting options and no real ruck nonsense? Draper/2m Peter/Cox all over 2m

Was still making lung-busting sprints late in the 4th quarter. Key component of the forward line pressure.

NAIDOC Week runs from Sun, 7 July 2024 – Sun, 14 July 2024; a few clubs already ran out with their Indigenous Guernseys over the weekend but we had our usual kit on, will it get the call up next Saturday?

it's coming back with the hair

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?

Ah apologies, missed that in the EOFY madness. Thanks
