Premisson to train at Stkilda = career likely over?

No idea but clearly the best name in the AFL.

Zerk-Thatcher says hi

Zerk-Thatcher says hi

Who is he? He wins but the toilet is close.

Doulton Langlands' work rate was as high as any in the day's action. He ran from half back to half forward, to the wing on the other side of the field and then pushed back again, all in the one play, covering in excess of 100 metres in one sequence without slowing. On another play, Langlands ran with ball in hand 20m in the back 50m arc, kicked short to a target, then ran in support from half-back to half-forward. While the 187cm, 79kg, GWS Academy member only had the 10 disposals, he provided run with ball in hand and kicked long.

 

[King_Steele]

I like this pick.

Speed & good ball use.

 

[Saint Shags]

So did my homework and talked to a few of the Senior Tallangatta and District league players at work. Guys seemed to think that Paton will be a really good pick up.
Thoughts were that although may not play multiple games next year would eventually find his way into the midfield - may start at hbf but mid was going to be his real position. Still very impressed of him winning the BnF as a 16 year old.

Also Collingwood picked up Flynn Appleby

 

[Stewart66]

the main differance was each week Cox was getting better and better heck in 2004 he was very very close to being signed as a Saint as GT went hard for him.. in his WAFL performance COX was killing it it was only Gardi keeping him out for Lewie his VFL performances have been hohum and he is trending in the wrong direction to the point where i doubt any other club besides us would consider offering him a rookie spot...
thats sadly AFL footy some make it some dont but Lewies situation is very far removed from that of Cox

Know Cox’s history mate , with respect Matthew Lobbe carried Port Adelaide’s ruck one out they were
Offered unbelievable trade for him which they knocked back only to give him away later on

Things change at football clubs particularly Ruckman

Seen Lewis be played out position many times at Sandringham difficult to impress when you are sitting on the pine
Or being played out of position because they had too many ruckman in team .

Think it is smart move as most ruckman improve their craft over 25 years old .

 

[StCicatriz]

wasnt JB's mate who was a first rounder for richmond in the rookie draft?

 

[Barrels]

Oi Rors, your mate...

 

[Barrels]

At least we can say this much... Sandy’s gonna be quuuuuick...

 

[TheJackal]

So we've drafted Coffee, Kent, Grouch and Royal. Can't think of one for Paton.

The General. Duh.

 

[King_Steele]

Oi Rors, your mate...

If Longer/Hickey go down we’ve still got Pierce as backup with Marshall also capable as a “emergency break glass” option.

 

[StCicatriz]

Oi Rors, your mate...

my god.

anyone wanna guess how many games of tom lamb's that bloke has watched in the last 3 years. i'm going with 1, back in 2015

 

[Barrels]

If Longer/Hickey go down we’ve still got Pierce as backup with Marshall also capable as a “emergency break glass” option.

He’s barely 23. That’s about 15 months old in ruck terms.

 

[Quixote]

By that ratio, Mummy was eating 40 dim sims as a 12 month old. Impressive. Can't imagine the nappy

Doulton Langlands, I knew it!!

 

[Kilroy]

Man of Steele and Clark Kent? Is that even possible?

 

[VDS66]

Moron shamer.

I'm an anti-moronite

 

[VDS66]

The General. Duh.

Wasn't the general with 2 t's?

I thought Paton Place or Paton Pending...

 

[gringo2011]

No idea but clearly the best name in the AFL.

Logan Austin wants to take him out now. There can be only one.
