Are you after a debate? Because I really CBF'd. It's just an opinion of mine.

Not really but I do think he has the most potential to pick the worst option. His clip showed that beautiful lace out pass to Howe so I know he can kick the pill okay.. More composure will result in a much better player.

I can see him running off a half back flank after a brilliant intercept and then spearing a pass directly on to an opposition players [censored] in the forward 50.

Very interesting indeed. Thanks for sharing.

Craig ignored him too. Too slow, short kick of the ball. VFL standard and will be lucky to keep a spot on the list.

Reads the play the best when across half back and can use that to provide better on-field leadership. Getting smashed in the middle takes away both these elements.

If this is even remotely true I would expect Sydney to slip significantly next year. If they're once again a top 4 side I would say it's not had much impact at all. I base these opinions on our own recent history of player discontent.

It's relative to our rise to 8th.

Remember this photo was taken when wearing a GWS jumper. Makes sense.

I share similar sentiments. Surley even if the Dogs wanted to go young why would they not keep Cross on as a handy back-up player?

A fully fit, best 22 on the ground will be something to behold.

Still a [censored].

Exciting times indeed. The midfield will be unrecognisable next year. Both in personnel and playing style. Go Demons.

Mahoney stated back in May at a pre game function when the we played Freo that they were working on Frawley's extension. To think that he does not have it in front of him by now is delusional.

Latest on Black if you've not read it yet. http://www.afl.com.au/news/2013-10-16/black-call-imminent Born in QLD, raised in WA, played for Brisbane, started his coaching career at MFC? I admit that idea of Black becoming a coach is purely based on the logic that he's played over 300 games, won three flags, bagged a Brownlow and a Norm Smith medal along the way and is a 3 time All Australian and club Captain. As far as retired players looking to move into coaching, there's hardly a better candidate. A fair chance Leppa keeps him at Brisbane as a coach if he decides not to play on but if that doesn't happen I would be very impressed to have at Melbourne.

We only just kept Watts on the back of Roos signing on. Jackson, Bartlett and several other new appointments can only provide so much influence to keeping players. Another sht year and Frawley will seek out success at another club and I won't blame him. Frawley would look at Rivers playing off in a Prelim, Petterd in an Elim and will most likely watch on as Sylvia plays deep into finals next season. A footballers career doesn't last forever. Gotta make hay while the sun shines.

At least it's a contribution. You should try it.

I don't believe picks alone will net the two Crows players we're keen on. Pick 22 for Vince Pick 36 for Lyons Throw in Jack Fitzpatrick (not ideal) Or Tapscott Deal done with the Crows.

Think it was Jennifer Coight.

With dodgy ankles.

Are you sure of this? I thought Matthews was going to be working with the backline in a development role.

Yeah and also used to sook and disappear after being challenged or criticised whereas old mate just keeps coming back for more.

I don't get this. Adelaide have a gun 23 year old who just won their b&f and will most likely be good for another 7-8 years and people think that Adelaide missing out on draft selections for a couple of years is going to be oh so detrimental. Recruiting has changed drastically over the last decade and with the advent of free agency and more research going into state leagues than ever before, I can't see how clubs are going to be affected as much as Carlton were for many years due to cap rorting. Our pick 2 will not secure a player like Sloan.

Separate budget.
