Angus Brayshaw is a leader.

Can this be moved please to the trading board. Cheers.

When people are discussing potential list changes the same names are put fwd, JKH, Stretch, ANB, Spargo, Wagner, Omac etc. Petracca and Hibberd seem to escape scrutiny. Hibberd turns 30 next year (last year of contract) so would be of no interest to any of the other clubs. The Suns would be chasing others in that age group but in the Luke Hodge mould. We lack star power, when we drafted Petracca I was so excited thinking he would become a hybrid of Dangerfield and Robbie Grey. He is yet to deliver on his dominance as a junior and regularly goes missing for periods in games. I personally don’t think he’ll ever become the player we need him to. We are faced with the Watts / Hogan scenario, what have we learnt....We held Watts 1-2 years too long and got minimal return. We got rid off Hogan at exactly the right time and got May in return. Some argued we should got more and whilst this year hasn’t been great for May most were happy we were able to land him when we did. The time to move on Petracca is now, package him up with next years first round pick or trade for a mid to late first round and package that with next years first round pick and go after some real midfield class. Let’s go after Kelly, Cogniglio or Whitfield. Offer up some big money and make something happen. Another year of waiting for Petracca’s to reach his potential doesn’t cut it anymore.

His marking is also a highlight, very talented.

Next year will by my 15th consecutive as a Redleg. My automatic renewal will continue to remain active.

Garbage, did we drain Petracca’s talent or is just not developed as we we had hoped?

How was that a free to Danger in the last 90 seconds.....

A big sucked in to any who has any association to the Geelong Football Club in any capacity.

And this is exactly why Jones should not play on.

A farewell game for Lewis and Jones.

Fritsch and who?

Totally agree.

I wasn’t one of them but my thoughts are that some tough calls need to be made. We can’t carry Jones next year. Hopefully we get pick 2 and use it, not to be on traded. Trade Petracca (I know I’ve said this before, apologies....)and package him up with a future pick and make a bold play for some class off half back to replace Hibberd. Draft in not one but two small indigenous fwds. We need some energy and creativity up fwd. Not all the answers but a start.

He’s gone missing this qtr, Swans KIDS are running rings around us.

Because we accept players “did some nice things” as opposed to “tore the game apart” or “changed the course of the game”.

Little to no impact, we should also start looking for a replacement for Hibberd. Will be painful if Jones goes another season, and he will.

What’s his set shot goal kicking like? When will a final decision on priority picks be announced? Cheers

I think we are, I was talking to my mate yesterday and put forward the hypothetical that if we were to play the Suns either this week or next with a win putting us ahead of Carlton and finishing 16th. We both agreed we would find a way to lose. Sadly we know it, so do the players, yet on the flip side we’re offering players clearly past it new contracts. Madness....

But they released such an emotional and powerful video during the pre season, they stood in a circle yelling “our ground”.

Working on our skills, kicking and shots on goal in particular.

Ok, I’m not across it to be honest. Would love another star to come in and play along side Gawn and Oliver.

I always think back to the Salem/Tyson or J.Kelly. If these 2 kids are as good as people say we take one with our pick.

Whether it’s Brown or someone else, we need a key fwd that can consistently take pack marks and kick goals. We also need 2 quality small fwds. I was unaware of Brown’s free agent status, so now knowing that obviously changes things. But seriously, does anyone honestly believe Petracca is in the top 5 fwds in the comp, or in the same league as Grey or DeGoey. How different some of the comments on Brown would be if he was already playing for the Dees.

Ok course you’re out, because you can’t answer the question.

Most definitely, was thinking something similar myself. Also means we keep our 2nd rd pick.
