Little Richard

He picked up Tex Walker with pick 75 in this day and age where the draft is a lot more accurate, so couldn't hurt to have a go!

MN: 'CQ is closed this weekend, time to focus on the footy' BM: 'Footy....?'

Fairly sure we are around 5th for contested marks, though it's not a super important stat!

Damn was looking forward to watching Hunt too. Absolutely love Velasquez and was shattered when he lost to Dos Santos... should handle Silva okay. If they stay up, Dos Santos should win it fairly quickly but if Mir can ground him it could be interesting! Mir would have to have the superior ground game yeah? Watched Mir vs Tank Abbott the other day on unleashed... funny fight!

How about waiting until a player has played a senior game or two before he is delisted? Davis has looked fairly convincing in the seconds in my opinion. Oh thank god for that then!

Some of those inswingers from Ando bent a mile. Think Cummins, Pattinson will be pretty ineffective there unless we can get a coach who is knowledgeable about the conditions over there. Has McDermott been replaced yet?

Who are people liking for Dos Santos/Mir?

Would be a good statement but at the moment we should use whatever picks/available players to trade for. What do people think we could get for this poor excuse of a footballer?

If you don't want to support the club at the time they need us the most, you can f*&k off and barrack for someone else. Cannot give up now.

Early days but you never know, he might not need one!

Trengove will be a star, just has to overcome the hurdles he has been faced with this year. Aside from him I have the most faith in Blease, Cook and Gysberts. I really hope these guys come through for us. Don't think Fitz will make it to be honest, though I am happy to be proven wrong.

A mate of Fitzgerald's

Do you have the same view of Jack Darling out of interest?

Not to mention being an integral part of one of the best sides to ever play the game. I bet this guy wakes up in the morning and p*sses success

A 7 year deal to a 25 year old is ridiculous, let alone to any player. I really hope we don't try and get him, money and picks can be better spent else where.

The money we have would be better invested in a gun midfielder than a gun CHF/FF! We need to be able to get the ball down there first.

Hopefully having a good look at the way Riewoldt runs.

Agree with this, but I think Martin's second half showed he was a class above, and he should be brought in for Fitzpatrick, who has to show more solid form in the VFL. Jurrah could be worth bringing in even though he didn't light it up, purely for the fact that he can pull something out of nowhere, and bring a bit of 'x factor' to the side.

Not Hurley??

Very depressng viewing. Have to say Bailey knew how to make the boys spread after the stoppages

He seems to have some hunger - I've seen a few optimistic chases and uses his body well but as has been said, just way to slow. Crashes the packs well, wouldn't mind a mark now and then though!

Wouldn't mind seeing this; at least Neeld would have the players that he believes he needs to make his gameplan work. The fact that we have the wrong sort of players plays a big part in the inneffectiveness of the gameplan at the moment I would say.

Ah, how old is he?

Taggert looked great, as did Tynan. Can't be sure but don't think Taggert won a heap of the ball? When he had it though he looked fantastic. Don't mind Lawrence either, could be a genuine prospect as a small forward.

I know he is not a star, but we should really have a look at Myles Sewell in the draft as a replacement for a Moloney sort (if he goes). It amazes me that this guy has not been picked up by any one, and it would only take a late pick; why not have a crack?
