His kicking stands out for me, but it doesn't really matter what we think. If Taylor wants him, I'll trust him. He's got a very good eye for talent.

About to watch the new Borat film with the wife instead. I'm sure it'll be much better viewing than watching either one of these teams win a flag.

So it's burn it down to the ground or accept mediocrity as the only two alternatives? Must be a pretty boring black and white world you live in, OD.

And I'm saying if we finished second last again then sure, otherwise IMV you don't have your whole board stand down over something like that.

If Taylor rates someone in the draft high enough, it'd be worth it IMO. We can figure out ways of getting back into next year's first round at the end of next year.

I doubt this'll happen as he appears to be a Goodwin favourite, but Melksham would be depth for me from now on. He's depth for the defensive forward role or even Fritsch's third tall role or half back depth. He doesn't tackle and neither does Fritsch, but at least Fritsch has 2 to 3 shots at goal a game.

Nah, Smith is over the line. That's already been confirmed on Demonland. If we are still in fact pursuing Polec, I'd say we want Smith off half back and Polec on the opposite wing to Langdon.

Well, you're wrong.

Lol. Should we start a thread on Dean Kent's BnF finish too?

Agreed.

If so, we obviously don't think we can get the Phillips deal done, or we prefer Polec as a player. Probably fair enough too.

If we rate a player high enough it doesn't really matter that it's compromised, providing we think we can land them at our pick. Let's say for argument's sake that Taylor rated Macrae's talent on par with an 18 year old Clayton Oliver, you'd do whatever you could to get your hands on him. I would anyway.

This is why I think, if possible, we should try and bring him in. Keep spreading the profile of our elite mids and with Taylor behind our recruiting, I'd love to give him another first rounder to use on a mid. Who knows what next year brings. I'd be trading next year's first rounder to get in this year if we think we can land the player we want.

That's the one.

No, I wasn't happy, but there is grey, you know, OD. I wouldn't be getting the entire board to step down because we finished 9th. That's knee-jerk ridiculousness.

Me too, gotta watch out for the estrogen though.

There we go. Fixed it.

Yeah, I'm happy enough with the addition of Smith and I'd like Phillips too. Otherwise, I'm happy with Salem playing off half back.

Tmac's on the table = IPA ?? brilliant.

Well, it's Murdoch too. Sir Keith started the IPA. And I'd argue it is political. The majority of the Government are IPA members, along with Bolt, that rock spider and that traitor trying to broker a better trade deal for his country of birth over the country he lead and still derives a pension from.

Brown and Smith will come quite cheaply. If Nev goes, there might be a way of landing Phillips and sending him to the wing and Smith to half back. Otherwise, if we can get back into the first round (via the Preuss deal), the kid Taylor likes can play off half back. I think we need to find a home for Tom. Hannan will get to the Dogs relatively cheaply I would imagine and Oscar may well end up at the same club as his brother again. Unless a really good deal comes up, I can't see us trading Brayshaw or Harmes.

It's pretty clear that the club was happy to see him leave and he won't be coming back.

We don't need to trade Harmes to bring in these players. So I'd be playing at half forward.

Sparrow is bog ordinary, otherwise I agree. I'd be keeping Harmes before Sparrow, but clearly Goodwin loves Sparrow. Have no idea why.

Wish we got the same deals he did in 1975. Daddy's equity and crumbling NYC essentially paying him to take on abandoned buildings and refurbish them. HyperNormalisation explores this brilliantly.
