  1. A farewell game for Lewis and Jones.
  2. 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.
  3. He’s gone missing this qtr, Swans KIDS are running rings around us.
  4. Because we accept players “did some nice things” as opposed to “tore the game apart” or “changed the course of the game”.
  5. 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.
  6. What’s his set shot goal kicking like? When will a final decision on priority picks be announced? Cheers
  7. 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....
  8. But they released such an emotional and powerful video during the pre season, they stood in a circle yelling “our ground”.
  9. Working on our skills, kicking and shots on goal in particular.
  10. Ok, I’m not across it to be honest. Would love another star to come in and play along side Gawn and Oliver.
  11. 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.
  12. 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.
  13. Ok course you’re out, because you can’t answer the question.
  14. Most definitely, was thinking something similar myself. Also means we keep our 2nd rd pick.
  15. I’m all for Brown but not at the expense of our first pick. When people want to criticise the team the same names are always thrown up ie ANB, OMac....etc etc. For a pick 2 with all of his physical attributes Petracca possesses, he has been a massive disappointment for me, and is yet to totally dominate a game from start to finish. I don’t believe this is a Goodwin issue, I just think he’s not that good. I would be all in for trading Petracca for an established player not another 1st rd pick.
  16. Petracca being ahead of AMT says a lot about this. Betts at 9, he got dropped last week. You’re still yet to answer my question.
  17. Drafts can be lottery’s, Petracca is supposedly a gun, a ready made player and only 23 years of age. GCS don’t need more picks they need experience. If Petracca is as good as people suggest surely he’s be the perfect fit?.
  18. If GCS were to get picks 1 & 2 would they give up pick 2 for a “supremely talented 23 year old who is rated as one of the best fwds in the comp”?
  19. One of the best fwds in the game....I can only assume you read that article on FB too, that was comical. Petracca is overrated far too much on here. He continually misses easy set shots on goal, this has been an issue his whole career. Please enlighten me to which games Petracca has been the difference in the last two years. Trade him now whilst someone might still give us something of worth or we can do a Jack Watts all over again in two years.
  20. Throw Petracca to the wind and see what comes of it. If Brown was gettable who would want Petracca.
  21. Omac before Frost. Petracca is a star. Carlton will beat Melbourne. What next people....
  22. I don’t see an issue. He’s clearly in our starting back six along with May and Lever.
  23. How much longer until Melksham is back?
