Where do you see him lining up McQueen?

Surely that's our fault, somehow....

So Grimes on a half forward flank? I don't think Grimes preseason warrants him automatic selection regardless of how good it's been. Let's see if he can back it up during the NAB games, then as we know home and away matches are different again.

I agree with DeeSpencer with regards to Pedo/Hulett, other than that I think your pretty close to the money with who will be playing. Halfback, kicking skills and dual position are vital as you've highlighted. I read on FB that Clark wanted a kicking coach at the Hawks in his first year, when told the club couldn't afford one he had it taken out of his wage. (Not sure how true but says a lot if it is.)

Ex Melbourne player + Hawthorn = right place/right time.

Classic....

Just to clarify....Pedo would be starting on the bench with 3 mids??

I agree, can we add to that - debuted too early - poorly developed (Roos now in his third year) - we played them after returning from interstate trip - games at Etihad - hasn't found his position yet - the added burden of the captaincy

Same goes for Grimes then.

Stupid question....that's the odds for making the 8?....the bookies will go broke

I actually think the AFL as a whole should be run by a panel of people rather than one person (I understand Gill has people underneath him), club representatives, former greats of the games and a couple of punters who love their respective clubs.

Doesn't sound silly at all. 13 wins got North in 8th spot last year. We won 7 plus if we weren't so ......... up we should of beaten Saints/Carlton/Essendon. That's only an improvement of 3, 4 to be safe.

Dawes wasn't shafted, he was told he'd have to fight for his spot, he chose not to and asked for a trade to us where he was guaranteed a game and probably more money.

Drop beat down and go with hammer time.

I'm loading up on us to win it. The GWS game is more of a danger game.

Fair call, will be interesting to see if he goes down the assistant coach path in the future or follows up on his studies.

Well I've just woken up (and yes I'm at work....) I did say if he plays a full season.... But I then agreed to BB's 40 goals and a bets a bet. Game on. Back to work....

Let's just keep it at $100 mate as I have a carton with BB as well.

Coopers or Jimmy Squires Golden ale or Fat Yak..... Count me in BB.

Feel free to laugh, he's a good set shot on goal, Pies have a good draw, Pies have a gun midfield which is something we never had in his time here, 1 goal per half of footy isn't asking much. Your good for a $100 then Dazzle??

Serious question....where are they utilising him now?

If he's not playing would like to see him in the rooms before the games and on the bench during games talking to the players.

I don't think his mindset will have changed too much RJay from what it was when he left here, more so he'll be in the right spot at the right time to be on the end of someone else's hard work.

With a midfield containing Pendles, Swan, Varcoe, Treloar, Steele, Adams and Greenwood the ball should find him on enough occasions. Plus he's not the primary target. These are the teams Collingwood play twice. Dees Carlton Richmond Eagles Bulldogs If I say it equates to 2 goals a game as opposed to 40-50 for the season it's sounds more feasible ( stupid logic I know....).

Who is Jimmy Toumpas. Toumpas for 500.
