If Dogga leaves i'd take Draper for sure. Has all the attributes. Rucks well and can take a mark and kick a goal. With proper coaching can develop into a very good ruckman
Finals last year, unrealistic expectations this year. A strong club would have got around him, looked at the coaching team around him and made the necessary changes. But chasing Clarkson openly totally undermined any chance of that approach
Bringing Hird back. Laughable
Would prefer the doggies to win this purely to ensure Carlton need to win against the Pies. Finals on the line makes that a massive game. And I want carlton and the pies to belt 7 bells out of each other
No fan of Hawthorn and hate to say this but Mitchell has them playing an exciting brand of footy. Superb transition from D50 for that goal.
And no fear taking on the risky kick into the corridor
If he does leave he going about it the right way in terms of continuing to put in and giving his all. And finding form at the perfect time
For those that reckon the draft picks will compensate for his loss (I’ve been tempted too). I recall one instance on Friday night where he took the ball out of the ruck, ran 10 or so metres before lowering the eyes and hitting brown on the lead. There isn’t another ruckman in the comp that does that never mind a 20 year old ruckman. A freak of nature.
control the controllables as @FlashInThePan pointed out and hopefully that’s enough to overcome his home sickness
Nothing like a big Friday night win to put a pep in your step for the rest of the weekend
Was at a function last night with a number of Carlton supporters. They were fretting over their game today whereas I could relax and enjoy the evening safe in the knowledge our double chance has been secured
He's a chance for sure but the problem is his teammates will take votes off him
Wines and Neale had the advantage of being excellent players in teams where there weren't many other stand-outs
I'm with @mo64 as well. I'm not all that fussed about it. My focus is on gong B2B not the brownlow
I'm not sure an apology and a promise to be better cuts it. It's disgusting what he said. If he said something similar about race or sexuality he'd be facing a long ban. Don't know why vilifying a family member is ok. not even a slap on the wrist
If Harry doesn't want anymore publicity about this then that's totally understandable. It's a deeply personal matter. I'd hate to have my family dragged through the social media cesspool because of this
Words can't describe the contempt I have for that low life Zorko
