Every player drafted is a risk reward gamble. When you have JT the odds are stacked in your favour.

Given the number of home grown WA players on our list and the quarantine requirements to enter the state. Does anybody know the club's stance on WA players going home to visit family over Christmas?

Unfortunately, due to living in the most locked down city in the world I haven't seen much of Casey over the last 2 years. In the rare opportunity I got to see Rosman in match simulation at training he looked good and on tv he played well in the game for Casey I watched. You seem to always look for a negative. I don't think you understand JT's draft strategy and the fact we keep retaining and gaining players suggests we won't be pushing players out as you suggest.

Rosman looks the goods to me. Saying we paid top dollar for Langdon is ridiculous. We paid top dollar for May and Lever too. All 3 premiership players seem pretty cheap now. You can afford to do that when you recruit brilliantly in other positions and need to fill a deficiency.

He should stick with 32. Think of the fans. I'm still stuck with 37 on my jumper for big Maxy.

Woey jnr is a fair bit shorter than his old man even taking into account he is barefoot. Wonder if he still has some growth left in him. Woey snr didn't really blossom until he was 21.

In the leadup to the GF there was alot of talk about the past players WhatsApp group. I imagine they would be going off tonight

Just waiting for the welcome to the MFC TAJ thread.

I haven't seen him play, I'm happy to say that up front. What surprises me in the bio it says improvements (weakness) is contestested footy JT normally only takes competitive players who love contested footy even if they play on the outside.

The lot of them should just move in with Stick's Brayshaw

Didn't Clarry have glandular fever at the beginning of his draft year as well?

On the AFL website they have done the top 10 Sorry I misread it. They were saying will they go as predicted and listed club and player.

Or Somyurek to completely snooker them and a need to change the news cycle. Either way I don't care. Let's all get there and celebrate.

Surely lifting the premiership cup should have been in the season highlights for big Maxy.

Sorry if this an ignorant question but when you are heading towards a premiership I had much less focus on the draft this year. I imagine WA and QLD u18's played this year but Victorians would have played little in the last 2 years. Is that correct?

Can someone who has watched young Woey more than me explain why he has explosive pace and his bio has a strength being a penetrating kick but an improvement (weakness) hurt factor?

When we talk about strong preseasons we think about fitness and weight rooms. Weid needs a strong preseason between the ears.

You don't win premierships unless you have the best players. It's no coincidence that Oliver won the coaches award the year we win a premiership.

@Skuitis the clear winner for pub fights or UFC. @WERRIDEE is the best team for mine but it hurts because doesn't have Oliver.

After this year I need to reasess my favourite MFC players. Alan Johnson is still up there. I am wearing number 9 in alot of childhood photos. It was before Neitz and clearly Johnson.

I can't wait for our next grand final where a player kicks 6 and nobody thought he would win the Norm Smith. I'd be looking at Bailey's brother as a rookie this year who apparently kicked 20 in a game during the season. Or at least get him to Casey.

You would be filthy if you were a Brisbane supporter and Casey Voss goes on to play for another club.

Let's be honest we all care more about the 20m sprint because of Taj Woewodins time. In horse racing you line up form based on sectionals at any given track. If you race at a different track you can't really compare the times. Young Woey is obviously quick and I'm pretty confident we will pick him up BUT there seems to be alot of WA boys featuring in the 20m times. Better deck?

JT seems to have an emphasis on drafting highly competitive players but also players who blossom late. He talks about it alot when interviewed and has said Taj Woewodin really showed improvement in the late part of the season, which is a dead giveaway we will pick him under F/son. Sam Peaa has clearly blossomed late. If he has a competivee streak in him he will be on our radar.

If we didn't get our culture, coaching and development right Sparrow and JJ could be on the scrap heat. Now they are waiting in the wings of a dominant midfield and can seriously look at becoming a part of a dynasty. You need alot to go right and the dees are ticking those boxes at the moment.
