Yeah this is the most logical approach, so naturally it came under no consideration.

Was wondering the same.

If he had better decision making/skills he'd be incredible

We're 6th overall for points scored, yet last in accuracy. If we kicked a bit straighter they'd be saying how deep the fwd line is.

Get him on the plane to Metricon.

Fair enough. Thought Melksham could have come in for him personally, but happy to see him hold his spot.

Give them an extra couple of days off training? Not sure why rests always need to involve missing a game

Good to see Rivers remains in. Wouldn't make sense taking out one of our more composed players.

Bowey for Hibbo, Sparrow for Jordon. Too many fumbles for Hibbo. Glad they kept Rivers in.

Limbo skills are off the charts, and could be a future quarter back

He looks a fair bit better an athlete than Daniel, for what it's worth. Quicker with a bigger leap - 7cm taller than Daniel, too.

Surely Hibbo instead

Get killed by Daniel and then bring in Bowey haha

Constable and Crouch are too similar to Viney, Harmes. Big bodied ball winners with little versatility. Shame there's a bidding war for Cerra, he would be nice as a cherry on top type mid...but not for $700k. Keen to see Carlton put all their eggs in one basket again tho.

Been thinking this for a while (even when we were winning) is that Oliver & Petracca carry too much of the load. Viney can, on his day be excellent, but having donated his brain to science often makes mistakes similar to Harmes. Compounded with Brayshaw's moment into full-time podcasting it does get a bit thin. Personally I'd move Rivers or even Bowey (in time) to the wing, and try and reignite Brayshaw's career in his actual natural position. Maybe even Rivers into an inside mid role. Reminds me a bit of Yeo, booming kick, tough, good mark for a mid (not Yeo good, but close to it). On Jordon, think you're underselling him a little, reminds me a bit of Macrae, albeit not as good as athlete. Obviously tough to gauge his upside though.

Brayshaw + a pick for Cerra is the move One of Bowey or Rivers to the wing next season Balances things out

Is Sparrow an upgrade an ANB? Not sure, but couldn't be worse I've been a Brayshaw defender but some of his efforts were terrible, throw Bowey to half back and Rivers on the wing if they think he's got the tank

So you place higher value on mauling lower sides than beating the best ones? Interesting. We could lose tonight, because the dogs can be a good side, but they’re not a premiership threat. Literally Port Adelaide 2.0, look amazing against sides 7-18 but shaky against the rest

I think it's more to the fact that the dogs are highly overrated (and still have a couple injuries) rather than our top 8 record

Nice try, Luke

Not sure Bevo's ever outsmarted anyone

Dee's by 52. Naughton's second game in a row so he's due to get injured too which help restrict the dogs.

Was I not allowed to agree?

Their forward line is crap. Naughton's a star but if you restrict his output the rest crumble. With that being said, JUH is the ace up their sleep, whether he can show it consistently though is another story for a 1st year player.
