  1. Or if the front wheel gets puled toward the vehicle being hit, then the 4WD could climb the side of other car, and then tip over. 2 handed driving Jesse, in future. So did Jesse, and the Ambo's, after the fact.
  2. Playing Possum & hiding in full view. Very deceptive, they are. Those stationary cars. I ran into one in my drive-way, as a lad.
  3. Are you hinting around p5, for 10 and a couple of future picks?
  4. I think it's about the other club receiving our picks. I think your answer lies there-in. Ladder jockeying, isn't just during H&A matches. I think we want 4 new boys. List management is happening right now, to cover off Gawn Garlett, Jones, Hibbo, et al. I think we'll take 4 kids each year, from now on. It's OK, we'll trade back into some of them on the rebound, when they want to leave interstate to come home. imv.
  5. I agree with this analysis favouring marking ruck-men over just tap ruckmen. Both Ottens and Keating were excellent in the aerial duels. And you forgot another, more recent sandgroper. Dean cox https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2006_AFL_Grand_Final#Teams
  6. Yes. Preseason or rookie, I would think. We cannot put all hopes in 18 yr olds, to perform from day 1.
  7. Yes, I know that, but moving on Hogan has left the spot open, & Tom Mc is our most experienced tall who marks the ball. His high half forward role has been filled by Tomlinson, that's why we recruited him specifically. They have almost the same skill-sets, endurance, strong overhead, running power. How do you know that Toms foot won't allow him to cover so many miles, anymore? Langdon coming onboard fills our needs of midfield running power, with some speed. Eliminating the Immediate need for Young. Stephens would be more than enough acquisition. And Ash has the step/weave through traffic, we need. Maybe a Weightman, might also add some step to our list.
  8. Yes. He's worth a rookie spot IMO. We are light on for experienced tall forwards. If one goes down, or hits flat form, we will be in dudu again. We need a plan B, just as Pedo would have been helpful for us this year.
  9. Lets hope Freo have the sense to offer us 7 & 10 for p3. Otherwise they will not get NicNats replacement back from us. With us getting Langdon and Tomlinson, we have strengthened our midfield aerial strength, and our midfield run. This covers off the loss of T McDonald's midfield run and marking, beyond the 50. I think they are rebuilding TMcDonald to play more a power forward role. Which he was poor at this year. I wouldn't want to be in Preuss's boots in 2020. I would be playing him to get him up to speed as a ruckman in his own right, ready to trade at end of season to the Suns, for a player or decent pick, in return. The Suns will be just about ready for a powerful physical ruckman, for 2021 season.
  10. I'd like to get picks 7, 8, 14, & 24. And in so doing try to get Ash, Stephens, Weightman, and Dylan Williams. https://draftprospects.prod.afl/prospect/1009253 https://draftprospects.prod.afl/prospect/1004848 https://draftprospects.prod.afl/prospect/1011803 https://draftprospects.prod.afl/prospect/1009195 That gets us plenty of leg speed, skills, agile stepping through traffic, and X factor. Also, Callum Jamieson from WA, might be just as good a pickup as Luke Jackson, but at a later draft spot. https://draftprospects.prod.afl/prospect/1011243
  11. Ash has a couple of things we don't have. He has the Leg speed, poise and spacial awareness to cut at the right time, drawing opponents to him as he delivers the ball. Taking important metres with pace, and setting up forwards. He can also play wing and IMO, could play small forward flank, with these qualities. I think he could become a dangerous half forward.
  12. Hey Et. I'd like us to trade out pick 3, for picks 7 & 10. Holding pick 8 for ourselves. ( 7, 8, & 10 ) Then look to trade out pick 10 to the cats, for picks 14 and 24. ( 7, 8, 14, 24 ) This would be my dream to hit up the draft with.
