whatwhat say what

well we know where she keeps edina monsoon's mobile...

i'm not nearly as high on hore as others - dropped multiple times in 2019 and injured the entirety, more or less, of 2020 same goes for lockhart; even at the end of 2020 it was jetta that was brought in when hibberd was injured, not lockhart

yeah, i dunno about that on a scale or ordinary to average, i guess so but...ideally neither would be best 22 in a good side

reckon harmes might be viney?

i'm going off the assumption that the central back 7 of rd 18, 2020, will be the core around which we build - i personally am not a huge fan of smith, hibberd, and tomlinson in the same line-up, but it would seem that the footy dept. like it and it holds to my theory that we're more trying to emulate geelong's back 7 approach it looks like a middle-tier side to me, right where we were in 2018 and 2020 - somewhere between 5th and 11th, before finals seniors B: Smith - May - Lever HB: Hibberd - Tomlinson - Rivers C : Langdon - Petracca - Salem HF: Melksham - Weideman - Hunt F: Fritsch - B Brown - Pickett Foll: Gawn - Oliver - Viney I/c: Harmes - Jackson - Brayshaw - Baker Emerg: Jones - vandenBerg - McDonald - Sparrow reserves B: Jetta - Hore - Lockhart HB: Bowey - Petty - Chandler C : Jordon - Jones - Rosman HF: Neal-Bullen - McDonald - Spargo F: Laurie - M Brown - Bedford Foll: Bradtke - vandenBerg - Sparrow I/c: Nietschke - to - be - determined

i think we might be more looking to emulate the geelong model of using mobile talls as defenders rather than genuine 'smalls' like us, they like to play a 7 man defensive set-up if you look at their grand final team, they had: taylor and henderson as kpp, then henry, stewart, blicavs, kolodjashnij (plus the option of tuohy) as mobile tall defenders, plus bews as their sole 'small' defender sadly i think nev might be cooked while lockhart does not, to me, look the answer as a small defender in the last round of the year we had may and lever as our kpp, then tall flankers in tomlinson , hibberd, smith, and rivers, while salem was the only bloke smaller than 6 foot in our set-up in terms of depth, petty is the obvious one as kpp defensive option, although t mac is an option here, while jetta and lockhart could potentially provide lock-down small defender options and bowey is seemingly going to be groomed for the smaller rebounding type fwiw i don't think our defence / defense was settled the entirety of 2020 - in addition to the 7 we finished the season with, we also had jetta, lockhart, harmes, and o mac playing through it at various stages the beauty of what richmond and geelong have is that they're all predictable to each other in terms of how they will play

taj woewodin sounds like a prospect we have serious eyes on, as does kalani white some further years down the line very interesting that they're focusing on bowey being a defender straight away; we clearly have a position becoming available in the coming years for a small defender who can hit targets by foot and execute the switch

kennett is sticking around til his dorks are in dingley

we can match salem if he is offered a contract by another club like you, he's a must-keep for mine

steele was technically bid on with a pick in the mid-teens but only 'cost' gw$ a pick in the mid 20s has become a super inside mid for them

bite the bullet and make the move to casey

Never forget that he he masterminded and oversaw the dismantling of the youngest premiership team on record due to his own hubris and arrogance

scum writer - footscray supporter ninefax writer - filth supporter both probably wrong!

i refuse to believe fraser rosman isn't actually 27 years old

classic weasel word

all the speculation in the lead-up to the draft had us grabbing max holmes; how serious was our interest in him and what was your reaction when geelong made the trade to bring him in and - theoretically - gazzump us by taking him?

but...but.....i thought the afl was in charge of fixturing?!??

aren't we due to get both anzac eve and qb? other big ones in the first six rounds would be: carlton v richmond (opening game of opening round) the filth v footscray (first friday nite) geelong v hawthorn (easter monday - i think they share the gate?)

obviously predicted best 22, 2021 is very different to round 1, 2021 because, for instance, if brayshaw is not even going to be resuming training til february then there's no way i can see him being ready to go at the start of the season i am hopeful that at least one of the kids we've picked up - probably either bowey or laurie - will be a debutant and be able to play at senior level immediately we have traditionally played a 7-man defence under goodwin with a wing pushing back to cover defensively - will that continue in 2021?
