Nascent

The options weren't great

Da real mvp

Love your work @WheeloRatings Thought L Pickett had much better defensive pressure and your stats support that.

Silver retro demon jumper.

I suspect so as well. Melksham would be the obvious replacement if fit but wonder if they'll put Kentfield in if he's recovered from his knee as well

Wonder if cross out will result in blinky bill coming into the side...

I read somewhere that key forward and potential top 10 prospect Jack Pickett has done an ACL and will miss the remainder of the year.

Hopefully Luker and Jefferon are back this week or next. Feel we could do with one more key forward. Cross coming out of the goal square is probably not the preferred set-up despite him contesting well.

We're not having much luck when it comes to the NGA rules. I wonder if Corey Ah-Mu is actually tied to us as well or will go the way of his brother and be "in our NGA" but without the priority access. Anyone with Twitter care to ask Twomey about Prasads and Ah-Mu's status? About the only one I trust to have accurate information on the matter.

Can't access the article, can you summarise what it says please.

That was almost as enjoyable as the win itself

Had 24 disposals and kicked 2.3 in his second game.

Gameday thread is a place to vent akin to shouting at the tv. Not useful, insightful and rarely represents reality but can be cathartic to release frustration (kinda useful then I guess). Not sure why anyone reads anything else into it.

6 Pickett 5 Sparrow 4 Lever 3 Steele 2 Gawn 1 Fritsch Apologies to Chandler

It will be this unless there's an injury

FYI it appears holding the man is no longer paid

I really want to like Sharp but that was the worst spot to kick that ball.

Good effort from Paddy on the deck there

So many players putting in little to no effort

Just watched the last quarter online of this afternoon stingrays game. Corey has serious size, kicked a goal from full forward then went on ball and had pretty much the next three clearances and laced out an inside 50. Uses it well. Looked gassed at the end of the game. Will need to see more to look at what his athleticism is like but he looks a serious prospect for a bottom ager.

I'll be content when Collingwood, Geelong and Hawthorn join them to form the bottom 6.

Ben McKay wanted to leave a basket case club. Goes to Essendon...

Sharp and L Pickett having 0 tackles as small/medium forwards is less than ideal. Throw in Fritsch (0), JvR (0) and Chandler (1) that ball is coming out with ease.
