Be pretty funny if Taylor picked up a key position player with 7 or 8. The melts on here We have no gilded young prospect at either end so I don’t know where this is emanating from

There’s a technique to It that’s for sure. You want the baby wrapped up nice and tight but also stay on their back.

Oh this thread is about to go sideways

Your Buckley’s chance if that happens

A thousand miles to go before that happens

On the White thing - we don’t have to take 6 rookies. We can take 39 on the PL and 5 on the RL. That would only really apply if there is an unlikely bid in like a 10 pick range after ND37 but if it does happen we will just have 39 on the PL.

Yep. Come 2030 we will have so much cap space Look Out

Well I’m sold. Vote ‘No’ on Open Elections

Reality

Utter cope from DD and a few others. Laughable. We may be worse so that we can be better. A few are going to be moping in their Carlton Draughts I think come May.

Sorry for the vomit emoji - the sympathetic vomiting again. … Also, your grammar…

Georgia Gall is going to waste a great talent if she can’t lift her intensity in contest and stop short stepping into contact. She will also get herself hurt and injured the way she half gets into spots. The juxtaposition between Tayla and her is stark, and while no one should expect her to be on the other end of the spectrum she is almost unplayable without the stars that accompany her in the forward line. Georgia Campbell has improved in that space so I hope she can emulate her namesake.

Eliza was curtailed. Geelong gave us little width and we make silly mistakes and what I call ‘look up’ mistakes; taking an extra second dwelling on the ball because what you see up field is not exactly what you thought. You then get tackled or you give it up. The best teams you’ll notice it is just unconscious - they don’t think, they act, the thinking has been done on the track and players know where there teammates will be. Alyssa Bannan plays sometimes like a new born baby who is figuring out object permanence. She’s not alone. But Tyla, Eden, Tayla, Megan, and the Defence won that game for us with individual moments of brilliance. They are a fun team to watch and a great team to root for. Can’t say the same of the men’s the last few years.

We have to win. This team should have a home prelim.

He’s from Wentworth If he was from Mildura would you say the same? Pretty much the same place

No worries. Can you look up ‘rhetorical’ for me?

What pick did we get Jack Viney for again?

Kysiah was a pick that we reached for. I am sure it took our ‘grade’ in the draft from the experts down to a ‘B’. Pretty glad we had such poor judgment at the time tho

I will play around with ChatGPT later and make it say what I believe to be true You have to be pretty bloody naive if you think any footy club is going to not put a thumb on the scale for who they want on the board. The club has given itself a right kicking up the you know what the last 12 months, they don’t need a hair-raiser elected by the throngs to continue the kicking.

Just pick him at 8 then. Or trade down a few picks and pick up a future pick of decent value

WTF are you doing bringing this thread back from where it belongs

I agree that our ball movement and commitment to a coherent plan in transition is the genesis of our problems. But our lack of forward structure didn’t help and exacerbated the issue as what we they to move quickly to? JVR not leading into the right spots, Jefferson not being ready/right, and the others being nowhere. I also don’t want to solve the issue with middling first round picks as reaching for talent is the last thing we should do. But we should not just wave away our tall forward issue - Brody Mihocek will be a walking example of what we have missed the last 4 years and what we need to have a succession plan for pretty soon.

So Goodwin gets all the blame there? Max went along with it when the going got tough on him being able to move forward and be selfless - he was the one that couldn’t do it. He could not sacrifice his game to see whether that would improve the team. For those that say - Max was/is the best solo ruckman in the game and we are making him a forward for 60 mins a game?! I am not arguing that that is a great strategy - it’s a failure from the jump. Yep absolutely. The thinking was flawed. But Max also has to take the hit - whether he wants it or not - that he refuses to work with other rucks and wants it entirely on his terms. That is the challenge of his brilliance.

Well they have to win. And they have to beat the Lions in Melbourne. Two must win games to get into a Prelim that they have to get into. Nothing is ordained but they should have a home PF, anything less is the failure.

But this way we deathride Carlton
