For those who follow this closely what your thoughts on Harry Armstrong? Would he be worth pick 13 if we got our hands on it? Thanks

What a couple of weeks, we’re paying $24 for the premiership in 2025 (11th favourite).

Not across everything & not wanting to lose Oliver, but if this does eventuate why we only looking at a future 1st and not this years? I assume because this years first goes for Bailey Smith. Surely Oliver would warrant our choice of this years or next.

Do we honestly care as much as we used to? From tribunal inconsistency to umpire favouritism I think the medal is viewed differently of late.

Ok we’re getting off track here. I would like a fwd that can mark on the edge of 50, turn, take one step and load up. Walker and Franklin have done that repeatedly, Hogan cant. As for Franklin being the best fwd of the last 25 years, on goals kicked yes he is but I’d personally take Jono Brown in his prime.

Thanks, however I don’t agree with Hogan. I don’t think he’s ever been able / confident over 40 metres. I’d love a fwd like Tex or Franklin than can regularly slot them from outside 50.

All I know about any potential draftees is from what I read on here plus on the AFL website. How good are these mids? When did we last have a key fwd that could take a contested mark and kick them from outside 50? Neitz?

It’s about balance. We’ve struggled to score for 3 years. An understanding of when to move it quickly is lacking, also our fwd line is so congested and our smalls are often not in the positions.

Chol.

We’ve had a pretty strong side for years, players like Harmes & Jordan couldn’t get a game. We need to remember there are 18 teams, some players drafted here knew from the outset they weren’t going to be starting 22. Who did we miss out on? Additionally if a kids been good enough they’ve played as we’ve seen with McVee. There’s only so much talent in the competition, this is why a 19th & 20th team will not work.

Fair call, I’m tired….didn’t consider that.

As for a trade not being able to get done. I don’t think that was the case. Jeremy Cameron went to Geelong for picks 15, 18 & 25. Dangerfield went to Geelong for picks 9, 28 & Dean Gore. If Trac still wanted to be traded I think a deal would of gotten done, we wouldn’t of liked it but it would of got done.

How much of this can be attributed to the Max Factor?

Not sure if already mentioned but from the little I’ve heard / read Roffey did a great impression of Kimberly Cheadle at her congress hearing. She subsequently resigned shortly afterwards.

This.
