Will kick 50 this year pretty easily if he fixes his set shot. Will be better than Naughton

Let’s hope they opt for Pat Voss instead

Finn Callaghan would be one I’d want us to be talking to as well, we need to start playing his best mate Blake Howes and who knows, we might be a chance. Out of contract next year I think. Oh and throw the kitchen sink at Bailey Humphrey like we did on draft night, stuff the 4 year deal he’s just signed …

As if the Roos could care in hindsight that they traded Ben Brown, we're lucky he played three weeks of good footy in September 21' otherwise you'd have to say the trade's been a bust for us not them

Ben Brown’s onto his 10th knee operation whilst Tmac’s body has held up all summer and has played in every match sim but he’s the cooked one? Yeh ok! Not sure where your bias stems from or your inability to admit wrong but the last two years you’ve proclaimed Ben Brown has been training the house down each summer and it has amounted to absolutely nothing when it counts.

I missed the second half of the match sims it seems JVR got busier in the second?

Did alright getting a generational ruckman off our hands didn't they? Only took them 3 years

Surely he and club could've done the selfless thing, come to a financial agreement and retired. Who didn't see this coming? Won't play a game this year. Could've used his spot to select JVR's brother in the rookie draft but now he's training with Freo which could turn out a disaster for us, they know what they're doing ...

Alongside your mate Ben Brown

As a centre half back? damn thats impressive

Petty in match sim?

Is Tholstrup training or injured? Haven’t seen / heard much about him?

Bang on, Tom McDonald and Ben brown will both be wasted list spots all year, very ordinary list management. Why was Schace re signed also? He and Fullarton are the exact same player, tall forwards who can pinch hit in the ruck. Neither a pure ruckman. We desperately needed another pure ruck backup for Gawn and they went and got another tall forward? Bizzare. Where is our Brayden Preuss or ruckman of that calibre waiting in the wings when Gawn gets injured or rested at age 32? Is Verrall it? At age 19? Do not want to see JVR having to do extended minutes in the ruck but I feel like he will. How this wasn’t addressed in the trade period coupled with the loss of three inside midfielders and no replacements dumbfounds me a bit

Are you joking? The club pushed for him to retire, he hasn’t fired a shot in the last two years

No one’s saying midfield depth was our issue last year. We’re saying it’s going to be an issue THIS year. How can you not see that? When we lost Oliver, we could’ve called on Jordan, Harmes, Dunstan if we wanted to. Who are we calling on this year if need be? Oliver will not be there at the start of the season, Brayshaw will not be there in the midfield at the start of the season. It’s a completely different ball game this year.

Match sims just happened and our socials team are compiling this [censored]. Says it all.

Yep bang on, these guys aren't even injured it's load management. Who cares if they miss out on one match sim in January, bit of an overreaction

Midfield depth is a real issue. We lost Harmes Dunstan and Jordon and didn’t replace them with anyone. Billings is the closest thing but he’s a half forward who can occasionally pinch in the midfield at best. At this stage our best midfielder isn’t even at the club and there’s no way Brayshaw will be thrown in there too early this season (at all?). We won’t have the luxury of Trac going forward at this stage. We don’t know if Rivers is a midfielder or not, sample size way too small. There really isn’t a lot to call on this year, coupled with no legitimate backup ruckman either. If one or two go down I think we are in trouble. Surprised this wasn’t addressed during the trade period.

I’m not saying he’ll miss games I’m saying we can’t throw him into the midfield round 1 surely? Too risky, I’d be surprised if he’s not at half back or on a wing to get back into it

Do you know if Shane is carrying an injury or just a niggle that's got him training away from main group?

Casey it is good call

The team was at Casey today and Clayton was at Gosh’s so probably just doing his own thing

Petty is not out of contract this year

Thanks for your work, gives us a lot better insight than anything the club has / will post
