yep, was very carefully selected wording which points to the obvious - sort of goes against the grain of "transparency". Hopefully you guys can turn this around quickly.
If Curtin is avail we should take him, not sold on Watson who looks great against his peers, just concerned his size will struggle with the rigours at AFL level. Hope I'm wrong but just see it as too risky for such a high pick.
The thing is he hasn't incurred any financial hardship from this and it was never the club making the allegations. The AFL need to come forward and admit that their own protocols which we abided by are flawed. As a result they should hand out compensation for the emotional strain to the parties...
Those top 10s you mention are still v young and a WIP, Ward doesn't have the leg speed so will be a slower burn, DGB needs a role and McKenzie needs the gym and some grunt, all have the skills....just need time.
The other kids (a year or 2 older) like Day, Newc, Weddle, McDonald are doing well...
unfortunately no one knows what constitutes the right way to tackle because it's only the random aftermath which determines whether it's a normal tackle or act of manslaughter.
Fair grounds to appeal...the main one being no player in the history of the game has copped 3 weeks for laying a tackle whilst being under a player. It looked nasty and hope McLuggage recovers ok but he rolled off Sicily causing him to pivot downwards...wasn't entirely from the momentum of the...
Picked up Aliir Aliir last week for 420k, only had the poor scoring game vs Pies where he gave away 3 frees.
Otherwise has scored 105, 111, 96 and 110.
Ranks 11th for defenders last 3 rounds with 104 average.
Doesn't need much of it...Avg 12 disposals and 5 marks per game...intercept marking...
What does Howe offer? A run with player needs more strings...he coughs it up too often with basic errors and isn't damaging on the outside. Fringe at best imo.
Agree..Hodge just tells it as it is based on experience doesn't push a left field idea, betting justification or discuss waist girth/hand size of a player...refreshing.
Fair assessment - I'd also add
Howe - is a trier but too often coughs it up to the opposition
Lewis - needs to play permanent FF for the remainder of the year
Jiath - let the man loose, love it
Kosi - Box hill
Atkins - a little ripper, tough, reliable.
Henry - never rated him until this game...

Scrimshaw was all over the shop at GC, full of talent but v homesick which affected his attitude up there. A work colleague's son is good friends/played jnr footy together...said he was a "v talented nutcase in need of harnessing"...a little OTT perhaps but definitely came to the right club to...
He's looks a v raw/could be anything type player. Has the athletic attributes to break the lines and not be burnt by the smaller fwds. If decision making under pressure and field kicking needs tinkering then he's at the right club. Happy to have him for a packet of doritos.
I think she's a breath of fresh air, wasn't sure at the start but I think she's grown into the role nicely. Balanced, asks the right questions, doesn't have to raise her voice to make a point like Kelli Underwood and has more insights and ideas than 80% of the blokes.
