Amon Woulfe’s ears are burning

2nd best. I see Max as BBQ - always reliable, whenever, wherever

Rankine is Chicken Crimpy

This inability to debut any player whatsoever (in what is clearly still a year where we should be nurturing young talent) might be the the single most annoying thing I’ve seen from this club in a few years And that’s saying a lot

Someone pls put Sholl’s face on this

Pretty obvious it’ll either be Sholl or Pedlar in at this point. Hopefully the latter And hopefully Ned sub

I know Pedlar had the highest clearance-winning % of any of our players last year, but I’m still yet to be convinced he’ll develop his tank enough to get consistent touches through the middle. Not grouping him with Rankine/Rachele/Soligo just yet

What article?

Did Rowey directly challenge McHenry on the shape keeper stuff? That’s well above ‘empty buzz word’ territory

Id love to see him become as prolific and damaging as a Zach Merrett (if we’re thinking of similar-ish players at similar stature), but that is setting extra high expectations

Rated 8th best kick in the comp this year? Hinge was great against the Blues (not so much for the rest of this season), but I now remember why I don’t pay attention to Hoyne’s stuff

If GC demands our first this year (and assuming we can’t move our 2025 1st into this year), would you walk away?

He’s improved this year in that regard, seems to have added an element of acceleration to his game But it’s not on the level of the Port trio, i agree

And an injury to Thilthorpe has shown we are deficient in key forwards (Burgess/Gollant) If you’re not happy with Butts/Borlase, then bring in better depth

I’m not so sure Keane as 3rd tall would work, I don’t think he has quite as much leg speed as even Worrell

Fair enough (don’t agree fully, but I see the vision as his intercept numbers seem to be currently down on previously, I think they’ll improve), but that leaves the 3rd tall slot vacant It’s Murray and Keane that will be holding down FB and CHB, respectively

Murray/Keane/Worrell That’s your three defensive talls for the next five years. I’d be spending the money elsewhere at this stage

Parnell out for the season, so really we could take three. Personally, I reckon we’d take two maximum

It’s fine as a one off The gradient is giving me WCE ochre vibes, though

Dale is the one I’d love, but I’m not sure he’d be the most available I’d take Daniel for pick 30-odd

VM coming through with the goods again

You’d think that injury stamps Parnell’s papers, shame it has to be done by this

Need to get our ‘next gen’ mid brigade all at the club by next year I’d suggest that includes Soligo, Rankine, Rachele, Edwards (he’s shown enough base traits to make me confident) and whoever we take with our first this off-season Berry a possibility too, and Curtin the wildcard

Yeah Cumming would be my preference, would also provide some speed which Daniel doesn’t really have That said, I wouldn’t be against going after both, particularly if WB are paying part of Daniel’s salary

Definitely has some nice goal sense for an inside mid, far better than Laird/Crouch in that regard Keen to see how much he accumulates in a primary inside mid role next week, without Crouch in the side. Would like to see him be a bit cleaner with ball take than his last full game, as well

Butts would surely get destroyed by the more mobile 3rd talls Murray for Butts seems like the obvious answer, Murray is just straight up better as a 1v1 defender and generally gives more confidence with ball in hand

Lot of people asking the question whether we should throw the game/rest AD against the Pels, on social media I think it'd be ludicrous honestly, considering we'd probably be facing the Kings (just as much of a bogey team) in the second play-in game

Don’t necessarily agree with this (think he can play a role in a good side with good coaching), but it’s risky giving a three year deal to a role player, particularly if it takes them to when they hit 30

Three years is probably one too many, but he’s likely a best 22 forward for us for a little while yet (as long as we put many good ball users around him)

Coaches votes: 9 Sam Walsh (CARL) 9 Izak Rankine (ADEL) 5 Taylor Walker (ADEL) 3 Jake Soligo (ADEL) 2 Ben Keays (ADEL) 1 Mitchell Hinge (ADEL) 1 Charlie Curnow (CARL) So it’d be Rankine/Walsh Walsh/Rankine Walker/Soligo Keays/Walker Hinge/Curnow
