  1. Happy to say it was a pleasingly unremarkable 8 kick, 8 handball, 2 tackle-game from ANB - probably our 15th best on the day

  3. One of the two free kicks for this was. Jeff Dalgliesh was the umpire on both occasions.

    You are referring to Sam Stynes. He was a top ager last year so overlooked by clubs. Played for Xavier College with the odd game for the Sandringham Dragons.

  7. Yeah hes a quality VFL player but has been overlooked repeatedly since his under 18 year when he was in the draft mix. Probably a case of him not being athletic quick enough to play as a running/outside player at AFL level and not big enough to play other spots. I really thought Hawthorn would take him in mid-season draft, may have been his last chance
  8. Hes a good VFL player but he plays nothing like VandenBerg. Much more of outside player with a nice kick on him and has been playing a lot of half back for the Hawks in a Birchall-like role. Cant see us having any interest. He's 27, been in about 9 drafts and Hawthorn could have taken him in the midseason draft and passed.
  9. Not a criticism but today is probably an example where maybe the voting system should be reconsidered. Nearly a dozen players deserving votes today, whereas in a couple of matches there have been one or two worthy. In any case: 6. Jack Viney 5. Clayton Oliver 4. Tom McDonald 3. Max Gawn 2. Jay Lockhart 1. Sam Frost Petracca, Salem, Brayshaw and May were all good contributors.
  10. Him at Sam Frost attended a coterie function today, so he is still around the club.
  11. I was not around for this part of our history but my father who has watched the dees every week since the 60s has always said he was our worst coach ever and used to play teams with far too many talls (top heavy)

  13. To my eye every week we are about minus 6 in correct holding the ball decisons. We dont get three we deserve and we concede three we dont each week. As a close in contested side as a rule, this is killing us.
  14. Only from one source but Brendan Rhodes suggesting its an ankle injury for Lever. Maynard concussion.

  16. Jack viney played finals series last year at 65% fwiw
  17. Agree biggest time waster on Demonland. Does not have a clue!
  18. As one of Alex Neal-Bullen's major detractors, it seems unfair not to acknowlege that he played a good, pretty much error-free game and was a valuable contributer. Not in the best half dozen players but not far away.
  19. He had been useless playing effectively as a tall defender. Last night he was pretty good playing basically as a small, rebounding defender.

  21. Last year Gawn's hit out to advantage rate was 35-36%, this year it is currently at 32.5%. He is winning only 50% of ruck contests though this year which I'm certain is well down on last year, so he is slightly less effective at winning hit outs this year and doing slightly less with them.
  22. It doesn't automatically follow that points from stoppages is indicative of laziness on behalf of our midfield core. We are still the number one clearance team in the competition but have dropped from 2nd to 17th in contested marking and from 1st to 11th in inside 50 marks. Scores from stoppages against could just as much an indicator of opposition efficient ball use as it is a black mark against the work ethic of the midfielders. Of course that could be an ingredient.

    Yes but you are not correctly valuing either of the two trades and your way of viewing them is hyperbolic. The Lever trade is nowhere near a trade of Lever for a top 10 and a top 5 pick. The pure picks traded was Lever, picks 35 and 47 for picks 12 and 19. What actually happened is most easily represented in two parts. 2017 draft we got Lever and Petty for Darcy Fogarty (FWIW I think we would have drafted Zac Bailey or Matthew Ling) and 2018 we forego the rights to pick 19(most likely would have taken Liam Stocker who was taken with that pick) in exchange for the ownership of pick 47 which we on traded to St Kilda to move up the draft. If we had done the trade of pick 19 with Carlton wed be needing to swap picks with them at this year's draft.

  25. It also allows him to play significant game time in the ruck at that level. Would suggest he will play mainly for the Stingrays whilst Preuss is at Casey and back up Wale - Buxton if and when Preuss plays in the seniors.
