Thought that too 'norm', Westy but a better kick.

It's going to be a long summer... When does the footy start? Please!

Maybe May, Petty, Tommy or Ricks spot...

I haven't seen any of these girls but hope we go with O"Hehir as we need a big, classy mid... It's the one area where we get beaten up.

If he's to make it, I think it will be as a key position player. He's not a ruckman. Seems to have good hands and a bit of agility, just no ruck craft.

You would sure hope so...

There is no arrangement with Scopus and the MFC...and no reason for one. As 'Red' says above our arrangement would be with the Trust.

It's why I would like to see her go back... I think we have the forward half covered now but have need of another tall back. Her athleticism and intercept marking would be good coming off half back I would think. The Hawks didn't even want to give up pick 14 so we can forget overs.

Love to see her stay on 'norm'...could imagine her running off CHB, what an intercept mark she would be and blasting the ball forward.

Yep, it's creating separation in those first few steps...

Why do you feel the need to attack other posters? Surely you can express an opinion without lowering yourself to this.

I like Sherriff a lot but I think Fitzy really stepped up in her absence this year.

I've always thought she has been a big part of the culture of the team and it's why I tread carefully with her and her performance on ground. It just appears she's really struggling with the bigger and faster opponents now in the system I'm not sure what position she plays. I don't think she can hold her own as a mid anymore so where does she play? Would love to see Lil come out and have a big 2025...

Absolutely not a cop out...you obviously don't watch games or understand footy if you think roles have nothing to do with it.

I think he will be 'bin'...1st year player, his kicking was a bit inconsistent. You would expect that with the increase of pressure in the game.

Different roles, both great players. 2 AFL Coaches awards says he hurts sides, obviously not with his goal kicking.

Are you advocating Duke playing in the centre this season?

Your initial statement was wrong...but whether players pass him by or not is another thing all together. His field kicking is a strength but will it be enough? He is no guarantee of a game and still being in the rehab group does not set him up well for the season ahead.

At the moment Duke is in the lead with exposed form but we've got some good ones in the mix now...

I didn't want to push it 'Macca', might have gotten 'Adam' a bit too excited. I'm also one to have high hopes for Kolt. ...we've certainly drafted well.

Just feel comfortable in the knowledge that we got 2 to add to the one we got last year 'Adam'...

Premiership player, pinpoint kick, smart footy brain.

That can't be right...some experts on here who have never seen him play rate him very highly & think we made a huge mistake in not taking him. Edit: it's good to have an opinion but at least it should be a little bit informed. Our club recruiters who have a good record of picking talent didn't take Riak & now 'goodwindees' tells us another clubs experts don't rate him. They could be totally wrong of course and the kid could go on to have a great career but you have to trust our recruiting department especially when all you are going on is the vibe. Anyway, good luck to the 2 kids mentioned above I hope they do a Teddy Whitten to those who doubt them, particularly Ricky.

Hopefully they're lining Kozzie up and he baulks leaving them to collide with each other...that would be a right whack.

I think it was John Northey who set that up a few years earlier than Neil...had a mate hiding out.
