  1. Has kicked 11.14 in 30 games. If he's a forward he's a small one in a scoring sense.
  2. I've got no interest in blowing any remaining cap space to sign this guy, but can't believe we'd go in the paper saying "we'll pick him if he wants to play for us". How about saying "we're keeping our options open and reserve our right to draft him if he's there at our pick" in the hope that he either comes around (preferably at a reasonable price) or it hopefully poisons the well by either influencing what the Blues do in the draft or even better convincing them to offer him more money that he's not worth.
  3. Somebody with a criminal record that we wouldn't ordinary touch with a 10 foot barge pole.
  4. Didn't they also 'misplace' a bunch of the records of who was jabbed with what? Thanks for the safe space to ask this innocent question without Essendon cult nuffies jumping in.
  5. Only if he signs the contract
  6. Didn't hurt us too badly when McDonald did it in mid-2017. Not against parking a mature player on the rookie list but if Gawn/Preuss both go down we can get away with it.
  7. The Caldwell chat inspired me to learn more about him. First page of Google "Jye Caldwell's frustrating run with injuries has continued". Will fit in perfectly!
  8. I can accept Jetta being ranked poorly. At his best he's great but even when he played this year he was average. However, by that logic having Kolodjashnij above Petracca should ensure he's never allowed to submit an article again without taking a [censored] test first.
  9. Missed the chance at having an A+ name on the list. Instead we got Leigh Williams and next thing the poor bloke was in a coma.
  10. Was happy to get him for free but would have been on the countdown to the inevitable pre-season injury.
  11. Is there a full list of the votes? I find it NQR that the club would only post the top 20 on the website. I'm sure Kade Chandler won't slash his wrists when he's shown finishing 37th.
  12. The first quarter against Collingwood (second game) was top shelf. If he stays fit and plays that next year we'll get good value.
  13. The tour that Hawthorn claimed didn't happen must have been a raging success.
  14. If we improve enough in 2020 we can get shafted by next year's priority pick too.
  15. Does anyone seriously think Martin would be the player he is today if we'd drafted him? He'd have ODed on sleeping pills with Daniel Connors then rammed a chopstick through somebody's head after being revived. Meanwhile, have we ever drafted somebody post-jail? I know Jurrah and Fabian Francis landed there after playing for us, and I'm told Robert Walters did too but not sure for what, but trying to think of somebody we got after they'd been in the clink.
  16. Open but only in an even season. More likely we'll get good just in time for a Hawthorn '88 or Essendon '00.
  17. What about the Adelaide bloke called 'Anzac' - that name will get over huge if he makes their list.
  18. Would help identify the regulars who shouldn't be playing.
  19. Brayshaw's third place is the most overrated stat around. We mock Brownlow votes for being ridiculously slanted to midfielders and know full well he wasn't in the top 30 players in the league last year let alone top three but still get caught up in comparing his seasons like there's something new to be learnt. We all know he was ordinary this year, don't need umpires to tell me.
  20. Do we get our priority pick for 2013 at the same time?
  21. The good news you don't have to wait long for a sixth.
  22. About time we had another bash at an Irishman but I would like Ronan Devereux just for his charismatic name.
  23. And I bet you first bounce Round 1, 2020 he's lining up as first ruck for Casey not as a forward. If we're going to have a Reserves team it needs to be used for development, not to try and win an increasingly meaningless cup.
