    Sam Walsh beat us in the 2023 semi final with 34 touches and 2 goals on his way to a Gary Ayres medal for player of the finals series.

    and has basically been broken ever since

    the gary ayres medal is a strange one - if you finish in the top 4 and go thru to win the premiership in straight sets it's harder to win it as you don't tend to have played as many games as someone who has come from outside the 4 / lost in the first round of finals but make it thru to the grand final and still not win a premiership - for instance, jackson macrae won it in 2021

    The half back position seems to suit Tholstrup way more.

    Agreed

    Mostly as he’s not smart nor skilled enough to flourish as a half forward / mid at this stage

    His kicking still looked like it left a lot to be desired - under no pressure executing a switch kick he still failed to hit targets

    He clearly seems to have a great attitude and positive personality but he is a long way from looking like a first round pick should as they are about to enter a third year on an AFL list

    guaranteed $$ and certainty for Walsh - makes plenty of sense for him

    baggers were damned if they did, damned if they didn’t - as one of their better players to lose him as a free agent and get a pick probably circa 10-18 would have been worthless, particularly with Andrew Walker’s son set to be a top end pick at this year’s draft when they already hold two first round picks to help them match the points that will be required to select him

    Dovaston: 3 kicks, 7 handballs, 0 goals
    LP: 12 kicks, 1 handball, 0 goals

    you forget the 12 bounces for kuzzy pickett 🤣

    very exciting to see him in red and blue for the first time

    what i liked about kentfield playing in the seniors is that he was capable of taking jvr's spot as the spare ruckman, leaving roo up forward as the 'true' chf

    it will be interesting to see what king's plans are for max the elder and max the younger, and whether they can play together in the best 23 - i struggle to see how given that gawn is clearly at his best when able to utilise his incredible around-the-ground workrate to grind his oppo ruck into the dust

    tholstrup as half back is something we've not seen before - he's got the defensive intensity to suit the role

    footy brain / awareness of positional situation / speed of decision making a worry

    he just reminds me too much of tapscott
