The Kalani White Thread
I don't quite see the traits that they obviously see if playing Kalani down back. The next 6 months will be interesting for him.

Assuming we keep 5 & 9, who are you picking?
Oh yeah, he certainly was. Had a 14.5 beep test and I'm sure he was top 5 in the time trial.

Thanks Adonski. Due to some other life circumstances I've missed about 2 weeks of draft developments and conversation.

And if it is an issue, his IQ and speed of decision making more than makes up for it. Smartest brain in the draft for me.

I'm warming to Travaglia at 9, think he offers the most versatility. Still hot on Lindsay but it looks like a bit of a reach at 9?

I like the alternative pathway into AFL coaching sometimes. There's no hard and fast rule.

2024 Player Reviews: #2 Jacob van Rooyen
Don't bust the merchandise. That's the bottom line. I'm sure he's happy to pinch hit ruck but he's also still in the phase where his thirst for the game is clouding long term judgement. I think the Ox comparison is good in the way that if he's going to ruck I'd like him to be a forward line ruck specialist. I don't need him taking 30% of centre bounces.

The Soccer thread
Ruben Amorim officially named as Man Utd manager. Liverpool was right into him until he decided to meet with West Ham and we moved on. I personally would have liked to give him a shot but it was something completely different to what Klopp had engrained in the club. For United though, it could be anything, he's a young coach who plays with 3 at the back and with true wing-backs. Will it work? No idea. But it will be different and it will be exciting to watch if the right players are involved.

Also, always attack a man/woman's strengths. No-one expects you to go for the strongest part of the fort. Up the middle, that's where the action is, grab life by its little bunny ears and get in its face because that my friend, is living!

From the vault
I remember on that cd the club brought out around 98 hearing Don Cordiner say that in the dying seconds of the draw that he was contesting a boundary throw in at our forward pocket and his intentions were to give the ball a huge thump through for the winning behind but Norm Smith got in the way trying to pluck it out and snap a shot. Smith grabbed the ball just as Cordiner punched it out of his hands and the ball stopped about a metre or two from the goal line before the Bombers rebounded and the siren went. Imagine if that happened today..

Devastating. Don't know what is worse, struggling to have kids or losing one.
