Petty is really slotting in nicely, he is looking calmer with each game

Clarry is immense at hitting contests at full steam

Monster goal from the kid

F*^%, Zorko is one of those blokes you just love to hate.

Don't know what is going on at the Saints, but boy are they insipid

Pretty excited for this one. Think it's a nice little stretch to test our character with 2 genuine contenders in 2 weeks. I'm concerned about the structure Langdon provides and his positioning. It is incredible how often the ball seems to find him. Trac is due to rip a game apart and with Clarry getting all the hype in recent weeks, he may just slip under the radar (relatively speaking)

Key defender at 192cm & 79kg’s is a stretch. Maybe he becomes a third tall in the Tomlinson mould, albeit 2cm shorter

Reckon there could be wholesale changes at the pies over this offseason. They would probably take anyone

Bruzzy would be a superb addition. Plenty of grunt about him and is a ready made replacement for Nev/Hibbo. Does not really fit the dees Private School stereotype, but Bruzzzzzzy!

The hairstyle leads me to believe he drinks a bit of his own bathwater. It may be well off the mark, just what it portrays to me. I don't agree with @Diamond_Jimthat he walks into any starting 18. I think there would be a few coaches who wouldn't accept the off the ball stuff. Port, Brisbane and Geelong immediately spring to mind. He definitely picks and chooses when he wants to contest

Fair point on Bruest

He's an interesting one. I can appreciate his goal kicking but don't necessarily rate him that highly. If the game is on our terms he is handy, when it isn't he becomes very ineffectual. He can't create a goal in the way a De Goey or Stringer could with brute strength or a massive contest

This is an incredibly short sighted view. The club and passionate supporter base on here should always be pondering the future and if we want to keep winning then we need to keep improving. A 10-1 start 12 months ago would have been considered impossible but we made improvements in to make it happen

Thought there was talk of Geelong. Or was that them getting involved as a third party and palming off Clark?

How much can I chip in to guarantee this?

He’s had a fairly rapid fall from grace!

We have done an unbelievable job on Bont, he’s had very little room to move so far

He’s been so close on a few occasions tonight, hope this gives him wings and he kicks a couple more in the last

Similar to what is being discussed with Tom Mitchell right now. His effect is being nullified because he's got no one of use to give the ball to.

How many games has Narkle played over the journey? Not surprising he's waiting as he's finally had a decent game

Agreed. The vulnerable categories are pretty slack in getting it done, meanwhile the people not in those categories who are ready cannot. If it was opened to everyone, vaccination numbers would be much, much higher. I'm under 50 and not in health and everyone I know is waiting for the green light, just never seems to come

I was laughed at for suggesting Viney would struggle to play more than 10 games in the pre season

I think our game is still very reliant on being able to attack. Not sure we are as good when things aren't on our terms and the doggies will certainly make us pay at Marvel

I don't know that Harmes can go with Bont, gives away a lot of height and weight (8cm and 8kg at a quick glance)

I don't know that we have anyone capable of standing Daniels? Fritsch is too timid, ANB is probably not smart enough. Melksham is too concerned about his own game. Maybe Spargo, but he's proving too useful going the other way. Would be ideal to try and isolate Daniels on Kossie, he'd have his hands full then.
