  1. Interesting to see that Joel Smith played ostensible defender on Weed - he was training with forwards earlier this preseason, yeah? Was this due to unavailable players, just to give Weed a ‘big’ to be matched up on him?

    Yeah, happy to be shown I was wrong - I want all players on our list to be successful but Brayshaw’s form over 2017 and 2016 was awful and had me seriously worried for his future

    But I have - I’ve said multiple times his improvement once he went inside was enormous I always said if he continued on as he was he was going nowhere, slowly; thank goodness he hasn’t, as I was really worried about him and his development With an inside mid role he was terrific, but I think with improved disposal he’ll get even better
  4. God I’d much rather be Rupert than Lachlan - he seems to burn everything he touches

    Sure, if you say so

    No, I said if he kept going the way he was going early in the year and last year and the year before he was going nowhere, slowly - you know, when he was playing outside mid and getting it 10-15 times a game if he was lucky Since going inside mid permanently he was a revelation, even if his disposal if still sloppy imo

    The player comparison with De Goey is a strange one for me Statistically, they’re very similar in 2018: https://www.footywire.com/afl/footy/ft_player_compare?playerStatus1=A&tid1=12&pid1=4041&fid1=S&playerStatus2=A&tid2=5&pid2=4043&fid2=S&type=A By the end of the season, De Goey was basically playing full forward for the Pies, which is the main difference btw the players Im quite happy with the way Trac is developing, which is consistently He’s always going to be that fwd-mid combo player who gets between 20-27 possessions, 4-8 marks, 1-3 goals, and 3-5 tackles a game I’d much rather that if that’s the base from which he can build that the inconsistency of a Sylvia for instance, who could get anywhere from 10-40 possessions, 1-10 marks, 1-6 goals, and 0-8 tackles a game Consistency in performance at this stage of his career is key in terms of him becoming the player we want him to be
  8. Crows wasted their $$ cos the afl, the two clubs, and saca were working on the Adelaide Oval plans by then Freo facilities are a mile from anywhere Plenty to play out for MFC yet
  9. His leading, marking, and kicking has always reminded me of a (right legged) Matthew Lloyd Flops less than the velvet sledgehammer tho
