You're seriously pushing the limits of my tolerance. I suggest you take your trolling elsewhere...

I think our resident hillbilly will still find holes in that, despite its sound logic.

You're obviously disoriented. So let me point you to where you were trying to go before you tripped over your shoelaces and fell on your head.. My link

ha ha classic!! Fev's the 'thinking man's neanderthal'.

You're the only one in this thread who thinks Blease's career is over. That makes you pretty special...

He did a great job on Franklin in 08' when he was on fire. And a couple of others in more recent times that escape me..He does play above his size. But I see what you're saying. I think we could probably do with developing another key defender, but pretty unlikely with a 1st round pick. Not many KD's go 1st round..I don't think many current gun KD's were 1st round picks (Frawley excluded...) There'll be opportunity to address this 2nd round onwards... Anyway, this thread's supposed to be about Brodie Smith lol..

I think you're being a bit generous there... anyway, i'm looking forward to seeing him next year. He's exciting and I reckon he'll add another dimension to our midfield if he can stay fit.

He's lost none of his pace. If you'd actually bothered to follow what's going on at the club, rather than just blurting whatever idiotic thought comes into your head you'd know that...

Well it seems as though we're playing him as the no. 2 KD, and I think he's doing a fairly good job. Sure he's a tad undersized, but his closing speed and anticipaion make up for it imo.. Height wise he is around the mark for most FB's, though his weight's a bit less. I like the look Of McCarthy from SA who's about 195cms as a KD, but he probably will be gone at pick 12. I don't think there are any other KD's that are worth a 1st round pick.. I'm guessing we'll go for a more versatile or midfield type, unless there's a really good KPF they rate at pick 12.. I think our KD's is OK, and we can perhaps bring in another in the later rounds. Gotta take best available in round 1, and thats generally not a KD as previous drafts show imo.

Oozes charm doesn't he??

Voss is the new Peter Ridsdale.

So Brisbane essentially gave up Rischitelli, Henderson, Kane Lucas, and Bradshaw for The World's Biggest Liability... We seriously need to trade with Brisbane more imo.

Terrific. The club has really been making a big effort to communicate and make that connection with the supporters, which is good to see...

Smith looks a great pickup for any team after an inside-mid. with pace. I'm not sure that's what we need though, esp. with Jack Viney coming through in a couple of years (assuming he signs on)..But who knows?? BP has already pointed him out as a player he likes. I think we're OK for Key defenders. I mean we've already got Frawley and Garland who have All-Australian potential as key defenders..We've got Warnock, Rivers and Martin who can play as backup KD. Up forward we've got Watts and Jurrah who are enough imo to build a forward line around (although a big, agile, strong contested marking forward would be ideal) they don't come up too often in the 1st round.. I reckon we should obviously take the best available, but i'm assuming there'll be some versatile types who can compliment Frawley/Garland rather than challenge for their spot... I think its more the 'disposal' coming out of defence that we need to improve, because our defenders are doing a reasonable job of shutting down the opposition. Its generally turnovers that are killing us when we come out of defence..

I'm assuming he was one of the players Paul Roos was frustrated at for not pushing his case for a senior call up..
