  1. Not the worst idea to bring him in. Lord knows we need all the help we can get in the forward line.
  2. Good point DD. Nic Nat isn't known for his kicking ability either i guess.
  3. And then there's Young's kicking ability................................................ It's called football for a reason.......right? Or am i mistaken? Mahoney said during the members forum “Yes, we’re going to bring in players over time, but it’s not going to be massive changes. This list has been built over five to six years of going to the draft and adding players through the trade period and that is going to help us deliver to our ambitions. We think we’ve got enough talent to deliver what we want to as a footy club and that’s sustained success.” Young makes us a better team immediately and would be an asset with his kicking, whilst Jackson won't improve our team for a few years yet.
  4. That video at the 12 second mark of his kick has allayed some of my fears of him being without a decent right foot, it'd be better than half the list on their preferred sides (admittedly just the one kick for sample size).
  5. Agree FiTB. Bid on Green @ 3, that way it stops GWS from bringing in 2 quality players before our subsequent pick 8 (and thus one less top quality prospect for us to contemplate drafting). What's the worst that could happen? We pick up Green.....................oh no 2 Clayton Oliver's in our midfield. Yes please!
  6. We were ultimate professionals back then
  7. Pretty good Nelo, the closest i'd get to 3km would be around 15 minutes (and that's when i was relatively fit, lol)
  8. Too much logic, unable to compute.
  9. This is where we have to put our faith in JT. I'd much rather the choice be in his hands than BP.
  10. I recall it being said that we were throwing a members forum to explain what went so wrong this year. And so they should.
  11. Agree mania, but i think a fair % of the blame lies with the club also.
  12. Agree that a question needs to be raised at the members forum about this.
  13. Demon Disciple replied to Earl Hood's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    From what i recall, Viney was a pretty big Hawks fan too, prior to being drafted by the Dees.
  14. didn't we say the same thing to Rory Sloane. Ah well,that's the way BP and CC operated i guess
  15. Geelong can eye our picks right up to the moment we call our player's come draft night. That's as close as i'd let them get.
  16. Agree, it sounds more like a scenario where we take Jackson @ 3 and Ash @ 8.
  17. If Kemp is gone and Serong and Weightman are both available at 8, it becomes an absolute no brainer. Young & Kemp or Young & Serong would be just reward for us supporters after such a [censored] year.
  18. Nothing. But it won't happen. Dare i say it, i reckon the AFL would've ticked off Harley and us already associating with one another, just not in the public eye.
  19. Another saviour hasn't shown his face now for over 2000 years, 12 months is nothing SL ?
  20. Really hoping it works out for him. Both Harley and the MFC can do with a bit of good fortune.
  21. Possibly there at our pick 8, so doesn't surprise me.
  22. Cale Morton is also a former Larke medallist, as is Josh Shache, David Swallow and Andrew Hooper. Means squat in terms of making the grade in the AFL.
  23. Another way of saying he has huge potential. I hate the 'p' word. A fancy way of saying what could be and not what is. We have had very few success stories recently with regards to developing that potential into actual talent. Jackson is far too raw for my liking.
  24. nothing
