A forward line JVR, Petty, Smith, McAdam, Fritsch plus smalls Kosi, Chandler, ANB, Spargo reads ok

Yes, but only if we can get all of those on the park consistently, esp for finals. 

Still think we are one tall, competative forward short, ie. not Schache or Grundy. Jefferson is a long way off, if at all

After last night, does our 1st rounder now become 14 or 13?

TIA

Will he be available at our current (Freo) pick? 

Taylor and Lamb have shown that they will trade up if they see someone they like. 

McKercher.

Will be a better kick than Clarry, Tracc or Viney

May and Sparrow were huge in the last quarter

Blues knew that if they shut down Fritter our forward line was rooted

Can Tmac please, please retire? Please?

So, will JVR be an automatic in next week?

Dunno, Tmac showed a bit

Why select Schache as sub if Goody won't put him on, despite Tmac being a witches hat?

Does Koz get suspended???

Is he playing, is he? Hadn't noticed

Shown the touch goal another five time and I still can't see the touch.

Wrong colours, mate

Schache attack ON

Tmac OFF

Tmac could hardly do any less

@picket fence how you coping with Spargypants being selected? Panic attack settled down yet?!!

Schache sub????

The speccy will never go, it's the games biggest spectacle, hence the name.

It won't go, but contact to head in the speccy will be a free against. Players will have to be very careful in the contest

The Manor’s attack dogs are quite excited today!

It’s a good omen

Please send them over to Eddie Maguire's house, pronto!

Knee to back of head in marking contest will def go at some point.

There will be some over riding rule created that covers ALL contact with the head - marking, bumping, tackles, etc.

Incidental or not, any contact with the head will be instant free against

Reckon it will be around about the time a $500 mill settlement is reached for CTE damages to current/past players

Money is what forces the AFL to change

If he throws Spargo in the ruck I’m going with insane. 

Don't be silly, Spargopants will full back gorilla minder

Is this the 'Is Goodwin the right guy 2.0' thread?

Kossie only attended 1 centre bounce last week. Want to see him in there more

And as sure as day follows night, the Carlton rucks and mids will smash into Max all night long without the umpires noticing

I am making a desperate effort to un visualise the image this created .

Would've thought it to be right up your alley!

Time to hit Voss with a loss

We have or will have a good hand in a draft that goes deep. Why bet the bank?

Hope we don’t get sucked.

No, the draft is apparently about 30 deep. After that is drops off significantly. Expecting only about 60 players picked

But yes, atm we have a good hand

Isn't Petty under contract and McAdam not?

Averaging 1.4 goals a game

 

Good lord, if that's how inaccurate he is, AF will be beside himself 🤷

If we don't trade for an established key forward, which i cannot see, I think we'll go for mids with good foot skills in the draft.

We have JVR, Petty and Fritter with Jefferson to hopefully put some muscle on over summer. That is the core of our tall/ish fowards, assuming they play most games. Or hoping, I should say.

Our problem is delivering it with vision and precision i50, which McKercher will do for 10+ years

Once again, our club lives on its knees.

Ain't that the truth. Would 100% be a different outcome had it been Viney on Daicos
