Nah they went more than 15m and didn't go backwards

Love this bit from his dad Shaun "He can definitely jump higher than me" Wow! I can see why we were happy to turf Howe!!!

We need competitive footballers with skills - tick We need runners - tick We need to improve on the players we delisted - tick Goodwin has intimate knowledge of this guy's ability. We need to back his assessment.

Its hard enough for clubs to pick talent at 17yo that will become AFL regulars. Its harder by some magnitude to do that at 16yo. Much greater drafting risk IMO

I think you'll find Salem said he wants to try and move into the midfield. A bit different...

You can only offer what you have so if 25 is marginal overs for JM then so be it. Its not like you can pick or choose to offer pick 31 if you don't have it. Sometimes you have to deal with what you have, BTW are we the first club ever to have done a trade deal with Essendon??

You're right about the first bit....

Who doesn't have them? A bit harsh. Your first comment about him being a superb kick of the ball was right.

Yeah, but he might get banned and what do we have to give up for him?

Please don't rewrite history. I can't be bothered going through the EFC/WADA thread for you but WADA were not happy. They accepted it because if mitigating circumstances. EFC won't have that luxury.

Ah, damned lies and statistics

He's already EFCs favourite... I pray we don't take this goose.

No

Sorry but I think this is rubbish. And in any case it wasn't televised on Channel 7. This is a Coll home game and their supporters get in for free unless they have 50000 supporters with those dodgy 2 or 3 game memberships. Probably more something like that. Hawthorn Carlton had 25k on a Friday night and we had 23k against the Saints on a Sunday at 3:20pm. Its not us who are the problem. But fans generally are sick of the AFL and their rigged fixturing. Or maybe people didn't want to go because they didn't want to have racist shouted at them because they booed.

Way too early for this thread. Happy to back Roos and PJ and Jason Taylor. Have done OK so far.

They are not racehorses or greyhounds you know....

Hardly. Stef Martin, Nik Nat and plenty others didn't start until a late age - 17or 18 I believe....

Better that the new recruits learn from the word go that the big time is not an easy ride and that if they want to make it they have to put in. I assume that was what the session was about adn if so I am stoked. No automatic selections, you're all players - doesn't matter what number you were drafted, the hard work starts now. That is a big change from a few years ago.

I agree. Its hard to judge a player from a video but I don't get the love for him. I would be surprised if we take him,

A day without sun is like.....night.

[censored]'s doing well at GWS isn't he?

Gysberts....

LOL two turnovers and one out on the full in the first 1:42 .... He'd fit in beautifully.

We'll get pole-axed by WCE this week and by Norf the week after. 8% at least. The spoon is ours. Lock it in.

...without ever having seen Tyson play!
