This is a completely different comparison. You're referencing blokes that are in the early 20s in Gawn and Watts. Garland is 27 and his scope for improvement is limited.

Melksham is a horrible decision maker with very poor disposal. What game have you been watching?

He is the whipping boy at Essendon. Hopeless player.

Dawes and Pedersen are better than Reid.

Surely, some Godfather-like offer has already been put to him.

Calm down, HH. Just enjoy watching him play.

With Matt Jones still getting games, we're still at least one, probably two off seasons away from having a truly competitive midfield. By that time N Jones and Vince will be close to 30 and we'll need to start thinking about their successors too.

Yeah, it did. That's why I liked the post.

Agreed, but I think they'll want someone else to allow Salem to eventually play in the midfield.

Well, no, not all of us are going on some YouTube clips. I have seen Petracca's clips online, but I wanted to know from someone who has actually watched him play, ideally multiple times.

It'll be really interesting to see who we get this off season to play off half back. Will they go with just pace again (H) or will they go for elite skills (McKenzie)? Obviously, a mixture of both would be great. I've no doubt they've identified this area of the ground as severely lacking.

I haven't seen him play. Would you compare him to someone like Stringer?

Drop him. No need for mugs.

Once again. Was saying he wasn't worth it. Would much prefer Heppell or Carlisle. Wouldn't touch them though with bans looming.

Yeah, that's not really point being made. The DE stat is one of the most useless stats in footy. Tells you pretty much nothing.

We'd have to give up too much for him and Heppell is a better player. He's a little overrated for mine too.

Carlisle, Heppell, Zaharakis and probably Hurley are the only guys I'd touch on their list, but ultimately I wouldn't risk any of them. NOTE: I understand Zaharakis isn't one of those potentially facing a ban.

Love Nev. He's tough, reads the play well and is certainly showing great leadership.

Reliable enough, I think. I actually have a couple of connections to him.

I'm told he's on peanuts, and rightly so, as he's never been on the park a full season and until now hasn't grabbed that #1 ruck spot. Apparently, he wants a little more, but will sign with the MFC.

Well, he certainly did that. Was pinged on about 3 or 4 occasions against Collingwood. You might want to watch the replay, mate. My sister and I just finished watching it. We thought he was hopeless live. On the replay, it was confirmed. I counted four effective things he did in the entire match. Most of his disposals put team mates under pressure or simply went backwards, with nothing gained. He'll keep getting games I think, because he didn't get dropped after the St Kilda game. He was even worse this week, but until Salem is available, he'll get games. Howe on the other hand played just about the best game I can recall him playing. He was dominant in the air and really set the tone early.

Fascinating. I wonder if Roos had an inkling this rule would be passed for this year? Is this how he intends to get this A+er into the club? I'd use our 2016 first rounder for Prestia if we really like someone in the draft this year.

Treloar isn't a big bodied mid. But he is a great accumulator and has a bit of x-factor with his goal kicking and speed.

Apparently, I need to re-read it. Apologies and apologies to Redleg too. Yeah, apologies, mate.

Sorry, why is everyone telling Olisik to grow up? Redleg's comment about 'war dance' in regards to Bennell was completely irrelevant to his footballing ability and should have been called out.
