    Personally I think they gambled that Brown would get through the season.  Unfortunately his knees are done.   

    Yep buddy let him down. BBB had a great pre season and started the first few games well. Body just not up to it any more

  2. I wouldn't proclaim to knowing this year's draft, but watched a bit of the U/18 and mcKercher for me. Racks up possessions is quick and is so clean, kicks goals as a midfielder and his left foot kick hits targets, stays low and moves quickly through the air. Genuine elite much which we don't have many. I could see him playing on wing in our team in 2024 with some midfield minutes.

    No from me to Mabior Chol. Half decent forward but definitely not a good enough ruckman. He’s a bit of a ‘tweener’. I’d also be wary of anyone Hardwick has tried to offload from TWO clubs. 

    Yes from me, any ruckman who has aspirations to be a number 1 ruck anytime soon isn't going to join us after the Grundy fail. Chol is competent enough which is all you need, certainly an upgrade on Tmac and Schace.

    Wouldn't worry too much about the hardwick thing he was behind Nankervis and Soldo in ruck and lynch and reiwolt as a forward. I understand he would want out and not play again for hardwick. 

    Chol is at least athletic enough to be a better than zero when it hits the deck when forward.

    Partially agree but most of these players listed are midfielders. We need better ball users in the whole front half.

    Good ol on the couch always find a way to spin stats to suit the narrative. Not saying these blokes are elite but 3 of the bottom 7 in the comp is rediculous
