Adam The God

He was a good pick, wouldn't call him an amazing pick. But yeah, agreed, academy access and COLA has kept them up. Meanwhile, their coach and team consistently crumble on the big day or even for 3 quarters in qualifying finals too.

And a bloody good premiership winning coach...

Gulden was an academy player. As was Heeney, as was Blakey, as was Mills. You know, like all their best players.

On ya, Greeny! 🤦

If we were playing FIFA maybe, but in reality state league players do not have the elite fitness required to play at the top level for a season. Those guys know what standards get you there and would be good back up, and good for Casey to develop our younger guys coming through. Taberner is a stronger back than Schache if required and Ross is no worse than JJ, Dunstan or Harmes.

Separation of church/synagogue/mosque and football club, thanks very much.

Walsh would work in any system because he's a machine runner. Having Lingers and Walsh in the same team would be a dream, and probably mean we could tweak our system even more.

Nah, I was all for Cerra pre Carlton, but not only has he failed to live up to expectation Inhad on him, he's constantly injured. The Carlton mid I'd like is Walsh, but he too has injury problems and they'd never let him go. He'd be perfect in our system.

Meh. We have way more pressing needs. Like elite mids to support Viney, Clarry and Trac. And half backs to help our transition game. Houston and Cumming are still good ideas, Cumming is preferable given he only costs TPP.

TDK is a nice player, but I reckon they're going to shed a highly paid player soon. He's a difficult one, because they've already got two star forwards and a good ruckman, if I were them I'd be trying to turn TDK into another mid or even a Houston.

And the Blues still haven't win a flag for 30 years...

What are you talking about?

Maybe not...

Green can steer the ship for a year, and then Smith can take over.

Haha, sorry to be a pedant, OD. I think he's going to be a star. He'd be one of the best forwards in the game if he one grabbed more often. I'm a big fan. You?
