  1. Agreed machsy, it's far more difficult to rate young key position players because often they have a huge physical advantage over the kids they're playing on, Jesse did it against men at casey
  2. Will be interesting to see who cross plays on, last year he totally destroyed Polec twice and it seriously restricted their run, this year that's not an issue. I reckon we can match them on the inside
  3. I think if anyone was going to make it back its Trengove, incredible character and a great leader of the club and I think on that and his potential upside is well worth the risk of another short term deal, be it as a senior list player on less money or a rookie selection.
  4. He's going to get hold of a defence at some point this year and kick a bag, imo he's been building each week
  5. We aren't going to land shiel without offering him the mother of all contracts and there is no guarentee that even if he agreed to come to us that Jeremy Howe and or first pick would be enough, I think we'd be better off trying to get a couple of blokes from the next Teir down and developing that superstar from within Howe and our first pick for coniglio and tommlinson??
  6. I hope we look seriously at Tomlinson from he Giants. he will be a gun imo and is probably behind a few in the pecking order at the Giants now.
  7. I reckon we will persist with Trengove on another short deal, and probably lose garland and Howe
  8. Most of his disposals have to be shots at goal... He had 21 disposals on the weekend so if they're all shots at goal I'm totally fine with that
  9. That's where we differ faulty, I'd like to see the young men of the AFL looked after and not treated like test dummies
  10. Lance, this is bigger than rules, that's what they don't get, technically they may have broken no rules, morally their conduct is close to the worst in the history of Australian sport and embarrassing to the code. If my kids were subjected to that I'd be fuming
  11. The fact they undertook an injection regime of this scale and can't produce records of it should in my opinion mean every person involved should be banned from the AFL. Banned substances add another layer to what is already a disgusting situation, and I'm yet to hear a single quality argument from anyone associated with Essendon that justifies the actions of the club and certain officials. Until that happens my respect for the club and code is all but lost
  12. Guys I've decided to apply for the Carlton coaching job, I'm not at all qualified for the position and I don't even really want it so on those two points alone id have to be a certainty
  13. Mark neeld installed as early favourite for the coaching job, Steven trigg quoted in saying neelds success in securing high draft picks without tanking is unrivalled
  14. If that wasn't a [censored] you to the Carlton footy club nothing is
  15. Prestia out for the year now too? Seriously did rocket kill a puppy in a previous life or something?
  16. Jesse can roost a ball, don't worry about that!
  17. He just looks difficult to tackle to me, bit of Fyfe or judd about him in that sense
  18. If gws wanted to cough up pick 7 for him they clearly rate him, we might well get more value trading him
  19. I think if Viney, Jetta and Tyson are fit, they play because they're best 18 easily
  20. I remember in the 05-06 grand finals worsfold using hunter as a defender but as soon as they kicked a goal they'd move him forward in a proactive move to try and turn one goal into two and build momentum, I think that's how we should use Howe
  21. He played well as a sub, maybe that's his go, I'm not sure he has the conditioning to play for quarters but being able to impact like that as a sub makes him super valuable
