In a perfect world, Kelly any day of the week.

No there isn't. If Tyson were to be traded, it would be to a Victorian club.

Jones looked like more of a 2nd round pick tonight - 30s. Maybe just a form drop in the last week or so.

He'd need a decent attitude adjustment. He didn't do any of his preseason programs in his time at the club. Made Oliver look like Captain Commitment

Chris from Camberwell?

I have no idea what he's thinking. I'll put it more simply... the kid couldn't buy a goal. When he finally kicked one, he played a lot better....in my opinion.

Watching the Weed last weekend and the games he's played in the Ones, he looked to me to be suffering from 'Cant-kick-a-goal-itis.' He looked low (not devoid) on confidence and largely ineffectual. He was mostly in the right spots and laying tackles - trying to get all the little things right, but not hitting the scoreboard (other than points). IIRC, he hasn't kicked a goal for awhile and, for some, the longer it goes on for, the more confidence you lose. Last weekend it looked to be more of the same and I thought, we'll see a completely different player if he could just kick a goal. He finally did and I thought he played really well after kicking the goal. In fact, he kicked another and looked to have a much stronger impact on the game. My interpretation only.

I reckon Zak will work as hard as Nathan to improve his game and will end up being a good player, probably more role player than anything else. I don't think he's a first rounder though, at this point in his career.

Nope, coin not required

If he's got until the end of 2017, I'm happy to see what Goodwin and Macca can do with him.

The Perth Dees?

He sounded very keen to stay at Adelaide when interviewed the other day (on the box)

If Langdon was right we would let Hogan out of his contract a year early to go back to Freo. Yeah right!

That crimson dial is reminiscent of Lingy.

Nice hat!

I can smell the stink of Essendon's midfield from here. There's no argument on that front. Time will tell, but if you look at this latest Top 10 from the Hun. They have us taking Parish, then Essendon with Curnow. It's conceivable it's the other way around and our need for a forward (in a talls draft) is considered more pressing. I can see a case for both and you have a compelling argument. I'm just leaving the door as wide open for Curnow at 3 as Parish.

You could equally argue the same case for Curnow. Melbourne wanted Pick 3 as they didn't think Curnow would last until 7. Essendon's need for forwards (or potentially in Curnow's case forward/mid) is just as strong as ours, or stronger if you want to compare Hogan with Daniher. I would be surprised if Essendon didn't go for a forward as well as a mid. I'm not saying that's what'll happen but the argument's valid.

Happy to back Goodwin on this one if we must.....but NOT for pick 25. Pick 43 is more than adequate for Melksham, particularly after seeing that budgie smuggler shot from DA's collection.

This is Essendon we're talking about. Their demands will be nothing short of hilarious.

Nope - the unfulfilled potential must be in boxing Pass

I'm just wondering the last time we won a game when we were favourites. Is that another embarrassing record that needs to be broken? Granted we wouldn't be favourites too often, but anyone know when was the last time?

No, IIRC It was Hall, Dixon and one other but can't remember which one

If we're talking captions (G Rated for the kiddies) then Viney is clearly saying 'Tool' as he trots away from his road kill.

IIRC King is from NSW which should give him a third year on the rookie list (unless something's changed)

Can all the mods dump all the Ollie Wines threads in here too along with Picket Fence's 200 broken record repeat nauseating references. Thanks
