This bit is telling to me: "Brisbane football boss Daly has also had discussions with the Demons before deciding he wouldn't put his hand up..." So you have the conversation and then decide against putting your hand up. Almost like he was told we want number 5.

I think success as a coach is more important than success as a player. Probably helps if you have both though.

Flanders is a Hunter Billings...

Thought exactly the same thing, Unky Bitts.

They can't defend though. That's the bigger problem.

If it's true.

It's very odd, because Luke is actually the nicest bloke.

Wasn't King calling for his head for most of the year?

But Flanders plays for another side, so automatically has to be good. If he was at Melbourne, the same posters complaining that we're not targeting him would be calling for him to be delisted.

They're definitely scatter gunning it and my St Kilda mates can't work out why they went for TDK when they have some very promising young talls on their list already. That said, I think St Kilda are on the up and could well play finals next year.

I'm sorry you lost your cat. Are you sure it was Lewis that did it?

Yeah, nice. Spread the TPP across multiple years. Clever list management.

The hardness thing with Bison is in the air and going back with the flight of it. I presume that's what @Gator is talking about. While the hardness of Lindsay being described is in his tackling ability. I was surprised with the excellence of his tackling and his ability as a first year player off half a pre season to lockdown on mature bodies in tackles. That's how I saw them this year.

True, but they're different players that bring different skills, so it doesn't worry me. Hi.

Bizarre from @Gator , but each to their own. Langford will be an A grader very quickly IMV. Sure, he picks and chooses when to go sometimes, like most players these days, as to the question marks around his marking, the last month or so we started to see his aerial work. No player at 18 or 19 should be the finished product.

Bowey, Langford or even Lindsay.

.

Yeah, I think you've nailed it. It's those dinky little kicks that aren't on that he turns over.

I noted that. I guess I was implying he was pushed. Or at tue very least both parties deemed it was time for change.

One of the key stats that I look at and rate is score involvements. And Clarry is often not particularly high on score involvements, particularly in the last two years. But he had 9 score involvements and 1 goal assist. It was an excellent game from him.

Kozzy butchers the footy by foot. He's brilliant around goal, but turns it over a lot further up the field.

Ben Crowe was billed as a mindfulness mentor, but I always viewed Shand and Crowe's involvement as tokenistic and PR related. No idea where Crowe went. It clearly didn't work. Fitness and psychology would be top of my list for next year, along with a good tactical coach.

I find the moving on of club psychologist Stephen Rendall very interesting. It's clear we need something new in the psychology space. A new coaching voice is a start, but there'll be some pretty major reprogramming needed of some senior players. I wonder if the view is we need a new psychological voice too. @Engorged Onion

Agreed. Never really in that.

Good list management, Tim Lamb. @Slartibartfast , you must be having a party. A Slarti party. 👍
