  1. No. Whatever it takes.
  2. He was outnumbered or in the wrong position in nearly every marking attempt. Couldn't decide how much of this was was due to Hogan, his opponent or the ball being delivered to the wrong spot. Good chance it was a combination.
  3. Yeah after we prised him out of the hands of Man U.
  4. The whole thread says this...? "That's about as fickle as the Demonland thread on Sam Frost. He went from someone that wasn't worth a trade (we'd pick him up in the PSD for nothing) to someone who was better than James Frawley." Or is that just what BB has summarised as the thinking of the group? BB's point was to equate the silly people on the saints forum to Demonlanders in general, perhaps even including himself. Perhaps we could just agree that all footy forum users as a group are fickle.
  5. According to who? Just the vibe?
  6. i didn't think so. No "Frost is better than Frawley". The truth is such a hindrance when asserting superiority over the peoples of Demonland. The grimy little groupthinkers.
  7. Who were those fickle and silly group-thinkers? Can you show me a quote?
  8. I too think he is perfectly suited to being the best player of the modern era.
  9. If we get Petracca he won't come with the maturity and dare I say it the IQ of some of the other high picks. He is 18 years of age and most of us at that age had a fair bit of growing up to do. Thankfully I think that our club has the system and personnel to be able to guide a kid like this.
  10. Is there a Sherrin in front of me? If there is is yes the right answer?
  11. I would be flabbergasted if we did not use ND40. Surely something is in the pipeline.
  12. If that is the case then you would think that would be using ND53 unless we had something very good lined up at PSD
  13. It seems to me that the draft runs deepish in terms of mids. Later in the draft in other years you tended to get players with questionable disposal etc down the order. It seems that there is a group of really solid mids around aour 40 and our possible 53 picks. Of course my expect opinion is based on highlights and phatom draft profiles. Is there anyone with a more informed view?

    I don't think it hurts to have family connections at a footy club, as long as decisions are made wisely and nepotism isn't in play. If Tyler Roos is believed to have a lot of upside and is worth a rookie spot, then I hope we get him. I have coached my sons and while sometimes it has it challenges I can impart information to them with intimate knowledge of all of their strengths and weaknesses. I am sure this has made them much better footballers and has ultimately helped the teams. Roos is a shrewd character when it comes to this sort of stuff, if he is selected as a rookie there will be no nepotism. If he gets a game it will be because he has earnt it.
  15. Close. Moreland is from Geelong West-St Peters. Grgic is Bell Post Hill.
