58er

Goffy we don't need Yze to straighten Fritta out. It's purely in his head. Ftotta needs to develope some muscle and start believing in himself more! Once doing that he will have some swagger ( confidence) and kick straight tackle well and lead straighter and nit Into the pockets.

Agree Tom All players try their best and it's disrespectful and blatantly rude. Hope you can get a good preseason in and have a great 2021.

No certainty our Club would have been any more successful with the moves you say you would have made! We May well win a flag before Saints with Maysie at FB. !!

Not as many as they did before 1964 !! And only 2 flags!!! P

Turner slightly better than Spirit NS but Rivers is a lock in at HB Lockhart also at BP Petty either CHB or CHF. A half Forward line of Melksham Brown and Hunt would be lucky to run us 5 games on 2021. Withernden is a good player but not necessary as Lockhart is IMO developing nicely as our BP. If he came msybe he could play in the centre. Polec a good selection with run and carry providing he plays team footy. Ben Brown would be gettable and add to ourcfirward line with Petty and Weid plus Jacko as X factor relieving Gawny in the ruck. Fritta and Kosi as well plus Bedford Melksham and Brown as depth also Hannan.

If Mitch Wallis was at Melb he would be in the 3 selected with Weid Kosi and Fritta as forwards so Brodie is not out of place as a possible recruit. Is versatile as well and top draft pick.

All of this poses more questions than answers and Part of it is pure speculation by a D/Ler that has not posted for a long while and lives in the Border bound closet called WA!!! And then a general comment we all know would be not correct if The Hawks decided to Enforce their contract with Yze as they have every right to. Please Any further information Chooka And WWSW not General speculation???

And what are they? deficiensies ?

Raised my eyebrow a little but not a great deal between any of the three debutants who all have great AFL careers ahead of themselves. Looking forward to next year with their progress and also Lockhardt as well.

BBP Really like Riv and he will be a top liner maybe a future skipper but feel both Jacko and Kosi are something special also. Jacko could be TheX factor Player of a Gener ration and Kosi The best small in the AFL. All 3 could well be better than the 3 at Port who debuted in 2019.

How can you ruin a young players career on this sort of logic. Yes I was annoyed and disappointed that Jay missed the last few rounds but he is a future back pocket fir a decade and his ability will win out in 2021.

And they will be older if they recruit Higgins next year and delist Narkle!! Gary " The Litylemaster" at 35 will retire of course and prob Harry Taylor at 33/34?

Let's get Petty fit and firing and KP back or forward awaits. Liked Sparrows improvement and the way he was hungry when either in the play or resting on the Forward line to score. Goals from mids are priceless and we must get more from 2021on.

Not sure on what I've seen on Stephenson lately He is devoid of all confidence and doesn't want to go in fir the ball Phillips has always struck me as a hard worker and bobs up fir a goal now an then. Maybe Polec warts and all is the go as he is a longer kick and penetrating to the forward area or A target. Still mid twenties also.

Some Good points Dr D and Pollyanna about our age group which most stars this year are coming into their prime AFL lifetime and games. Youth is looking good with 2019 3 guns Plus Locky and 2018 listers inc Sparrow Jordan and Spargo from 2017 and Weid A little older. BUT as I keep repeating all or most of these need to keep developing fast for or us to get into a premiership window. That improvement if supplemented with Petty plus Ben Brown say (or Daniher or Gunston ) Polec or a Giants young mid or small Or Narkle from Cats AND Saad or Will Brodie from Suns ie 3 ready made niche selections fir desperate needs any thing is possible from 2021 on. Most if not all are in the frame I or gettable and suit our team. The shining example To all what's required in fitness etc is Trac and how a new player can improve is Ed Langdon.Work is required on fitness and skills and greater game plan.

That's rubbish and giving Jack no credit as a footballer. I think he could be A Wallis up forward and given a run any where on the forward line role to get the hall and pressure the defenders BUT must play first option and kick right foot much more.

I would reckon ( even back it in) we swap a player like HF or outside runner that is in a best 25 but who can't get a regular game also. We will also shop around fir a forward/ ruck with some cred who can do 2/3 years till Jacko is ready to play in the centre more than half the game and Maxy will be winning us games from up forward resting a bit.

Geelong should be looking also Swans.

Both Tom and Polec Salary are about $600/700,000 so could cancel each other's out instead of each Club paying say $250,000 Out on each deal over 2 years.

We need a long term 50 goaler to assist Weid to become a 35/40 goaler as well. Ben B is a chance and Joe D also BUT the money asking may be prohibitive hence the discussion on Tom Mac as his salary is similar and each could offset the other at the two Clubs. Another Mitch Brown is only depth not a future FF for 2/3/4 years!

[censored] really

Not going to happen No team wants a Sat pm fixture each week What's normal from the old days Sat arvo??? Only Twilight Sat And Sunday 6 pm are spots needed to be filled Gree with the two blockbusters but I would like 2 Thursday games as well and 2 extra Sat nigh or more Sun arvo 3.20 games for Free to Air blockbusters at G or interstate that our sponsors deserve esp if we are winning and in the 8.

Not according to him KD who I believe is in a much greater position to judge than you or I!! Thank goodness for that and good luck with us or any team he aspires to join to attempt to regain his AFL career,

Good list would add Saad and Will Brodie from Suns as a real gun is a top 10 pick not playing in Suns 22 best and they are realistic re his desire to play in AFL Withenden wouldn't be my choice not on ability but Lockhart is his clone in the back pocket so Saad fits the running bill of HB. Polec similarly on the non Ed L wing. Brodie is a HB Centre or mid is young and Woul be a great top up fir Harmes if he doesn't recover his 2018 form agsin. Plays tall and small I believe from memory. Don't know Cummings but Narkle looks promising as a HF.

My guess or opinion is that our output this year was very good from our Guns Aand B graders ie top 10/12 in the B andF zBUT our last 6/8 in the team did not provide the depth and support we expected and needed. I class Hannan Harmes Jetta AVB ANB Smith and Oscar in this category. Hunt Has a level he can go to like the lady game Baker When tried was a pleasant surprise and other than his disposal on some occasions was a little ragged plus Spargo put together 2 great games vs Woods and Giants Where he hit the scoreboard but was not so prominent in a couple of the othersBut Charlie generally can be defensive but we need much more than that consistently. He had developed and 2031 should see that even further. Thats why we should be looking at 3 of Ben Brown or Joe Daniher or Jarrod Polec Or AdamSaad or Will Brodie or Peter Wright ( if Pruess goes). Our depth is a myth except for Sparrow as we don't know how Jordan or Bedford Will be fir to lack of opportunity, All players have room for development and the Assistant Coaches need to be Replaced to give fresh ideas and break down Goody's stubborn approach to players and roles within the team and to have major input in our Game Plan for 2012 and beyond.
