  1. First, I think Jackson is a bit of a unicorn they don't make many, if any, of those so when you have one you should keep them There is no way either of Rosman or Turner are going to be his replacement IMO. Turner is more in the mold of a hybrid Lever / Petty type. Rosman I'm not so sure if, or where, he fits in. He does has some ability - I think he needs to have a very busy summer and maybe get Dogga to give him some tips on how to get bigger and stronger
  2. JUH is a really interesting one - he certainly looks capable - but so does the Weid 😲 JUH's kicking last night was poor and as Lethal said he simply looks incapable of winning possession unless its via a mark - if that's your one and only source it makes it a bit tough in the AFL - for a guy that not a monster in size he doesn't seem to be overly agile
  3. True - you forgot to add that half of that next $100k goes to the tax man
  4. Actually agree with Max on this (at least at this stage) - it forces Weid to get involved and get a bit more physical I'd still like to see a combo of Weid and LJ in ruck and Max 80% in F50 as the key tall - especially if BBB is not performing
  5. One of my all time favorites - incredible athleticism and a ton of courage
  6. Perhaps you were a Collingwood supporter in a previous life ?
  7. I am 100% confident of one thing This thread is easily going to make 100 pages before we know what LJ has decided
  8. Trying to be objective here - I wouldn't swap our list for theirs, nor home grounds, nor jumpers, nor coaches - when its all said and done they are a very unattractive proposition
  9. From a supporters point of view its always great to see our best players commit to the club long term just like we have - it shows a clear aligned interest in wanting the club to be successful long term. These guys should all know they have a fairly unique opportunity to enjoy a sustained period of success if they stick to the script and keep working hard. Its the sum of the parts that makes a great team - lets hope all of the parts think the same way
  10. Turner well and truly deserves an extension - he does show a lot of promise His work at Casey has been on par with Tomlinson in my opinion - every chance to grab a permanent spot next year with another big pre-season behind him. If he can it will create more options to go forward (if required) say, Petty or J Smith
  11. Sounds like you may have some personal knowledge or insight here - if so, thanks for sharing
  12. You know this or just speculate ? I say the latter
  13. What decision ? he hasn't made a decision yet as far as we know - or have I missed something ? There's a lot of jumping at shadows going on here atm
  14. Personally I've always been confident that Gus would stay - not so sure about Jackson However, the days passing with no commitment is very disconcerting
  15. Its easy to misinterpret what is said in these situations but that was my impression too We seem to have gone from "we are confident" he will stay to "we are hopeful" - disappointing change in tone
  16. Pretty sure that was covered in the unfulfilled talent assessment - either way he is potentially an interesting option which I have no doubt our list management team have or continue to assess
  17. I'm not sure if Jordy understands the difference between training and partying - on that basis he certainly did set a cracking pace
  18. Disrespect the opponent at your peril - nobody gets a sniff until they well and truly deserve it If JVR is considered the best available for a position in the 22 great - if not he plays at Casey BBB is very lucky he isn't busting the door down IMO - despite being a big lad I just don't think he has the physical maturity to compete in a KFP at AFL level yet
  19. That means Gus is requesting a trade too then - the sky is falling 🙄
  20. He is certainly big enough, mobile enough and seems capable in terms of marking ability Has been mostly played as a defender so no idea if he could make a go of a KPF role - his brother does ok ! If nothing else would be a stronger physical presence than BBB - having said that he is below average on almost all key stats during his career so on that basis your assessment of unfulfilled talent is either spot on or he just isn't good enough Not the worst idea though IMO
  21. Straight swap with BBB ? 😀
  22. His new home or our new home ? 😀 When is our new home going to be announced ?
  23. Lach-ed in: Star Lion Lachie Neale inks contract extension (afl.com.au) Another signature - be nice to see some similar news from the MFC
  24. The arguments and logic for signing on for another 2 to 3 yrs at least seem compelling - does make you wonder why it hasn’t happened yet
