There it is, never in doubt GR. Thankyou. His clean hands, opens opportunities.

I haven't seen anything overt. He strikes me as having the mongrel in him. I've seen him win free kicks, and get pushed by an opponent in anger. He simply laughs it off. The game seems his focus.

I should add. If GWS surprise and take one of Wardlaw or Sheezel, I would certainly take Cadman.

This is arguably our most important draft in recent history. Our first two selections vital. I’ll focus on the likely prospects only. I’ll preface this post by saying that I’ve combed through recruitment vision from the prospects Under 16’s, 18’s and other Tier 2 footage. Outside of Wardlaw...

Absolutely all for it. He has stalled developmentally for a host of reasons. Stock is not the type of bloke to make excuses, but they're certainly valid. The role/s he has been assigned haven't played to his strengths. Clarkson would have him shortlisted as a candidate to support our...

Arguable Tas, if I may. Max King's display against Oakleigh where he kicked 8.5 was a supreme display. Masterful in the air and snapped some beautiful goals. He does his ACL, and it destroyed a huge top-age campaign that I predict would have seen him go 1/2 in the draft, on the back of a...

An interesting prospect is young Nate. Nephew of Josh and son of Saul, he has shown real promise for my Knights this year as an under-ager. I've seen a lot of him, and he impressed for a side that was, at times underwhelming and well beaten. Rangy at approx. 191cm, mostly playing tall, he...

He was a wonderful prospect. I remember him kicking 4.5 or 4.6 vs the Pioneers and he had something like 15 score involvements for the day. One week, he would be low touch, high impact close to the goal. The next, he'd push up the ground and find it a whole heap more, still punishing...

Port approaching the second week, having to 'seriously consider' including quality players was an inevitability, not lost on any party in trade discussions. We may profit on the backend by way of picks, but I'd be upping the ante, and pressuring for a player. - I would be in the ear of Miles...

What a grand day to be a North Melbourne supporter! Clarko evoked such emotion in me today that I watched the press conference through teary eyes. His passion for the club comforts you that he remains one of us. Our great club is filled with even greater people. This board long filled with...

Our supporter base should be stoked. Our selection is in line with our philosophies. Will is a perfect representation of where we stand and what we wish to achieve. I'm happy with this selection. As a club our strong due diligence is a credit to our recruiting team over the last 18-24 months...

You can bet your bottom dollar that Joyce and our coaching staff would be salivating at the effect his inclusion has on others inside the best 22, more than just adding his footballing ability to the side, which is immense in itself. For a mid, his signing would have such positive structural...

The astute observer would do well watching the final quarter again, with a view to Sugar's work at every contest. For the half-forward role he plays, his 6 disposal 4th quarter, was influential. His pressure acts inside the forward half, a direct factor in team goals. He'll long hold his...

I know the feeling, of running just behind the perennially deserving giantroo in previous years, and to all and sundry on this great board, consider it an honour. He knows I love him, but I will leave him out of my 3 votes for the first time, just because he'll win anyway. 3. The Other Dean -...

I talk from a pure list management decision. I wouldn't be in the business of bidding for the sake of bidding. If I were in charge of Brisbane's list and McCluccage wasn't on the board. All things considered, I would be strongly considering Bowes ahead of anyone else. Period.

Unfortunately, pretty solid Tales, imo. Perryman is solid, and I think he's a safe bet to become a really productive AFL footballer. a 200-gamer who'll be a perfect replacement for Heath Shaw. They'll be stoked with him. Dominated for NSW with an average of 417.2 metres gained. Can't go wrong...

Look, there's no doubt that GWS and GCS have some absolute premium talent at their fingertips this year. Bowes is a really nice prospect who I like. The way he goes about it, reminds me a lot of Ben Cousins. His score involvements were really impressive. Brisbane would be stupid to not bid for...

Fair enough. Always stripped well in my eyes. As for this year, he had his niggles but I didn't see much of a drop in his strength through the hips or his core. He's lost a step no doubt. Post-achilles, we've now got a large enough sample size which suggests exactly that and I have a strong...

His folds tazaa? Trying to understand your angle on Spitta here.

Hearts to hearts BOG tonight.

I'll just do a little bit on Dylan Clarke while I have time today. Someone who I thought had a good champs and because there'll be a bit of interest in him, as above. For some time now, I've been a big believer in prospects showing what they're made of in the championships. It's a glimpse into...

4 weeks out from the draft. I'll get into this thread for the first time very soon, and smash you all with statistics and thoughts on the best prospects, and those that I've seen up close, including a few bolters and who our SA team rate highly.

Could stand on the head of anyone, could Cathal. In-fact he sat on my head once, which would have made Maj proud. I feel like we've had this conversation before TPA.

Corr - Enquired about him? I can't say that I've heard anything of the sort. In saying that he's an interesting prospect as it stands right now. He was a real bolter when drafted and a big reach imo. I worked with him in his draft year, and I would have said on here at the time that he would...

Yep, we have a lesser midfield. Talent and depth. I know the Dogs aren't a favourite around these parts over the past few years, but I've always talked up their list here and always rated the talent coming through from 2013 onwards, particularly that midfield. I remember watching them live vs...

I can confidently tell you that we were huge on Burton RZ. We would have taken him at #21 if available imo.

I don't begrudge him for taking the offer and I'd just like to thank him for his service to our club. He's provided us with years of enjoyment and I only wish we saw him on the park more often so that he could have provided us with further highlights. Daniel was our best midfielder for...

I hear a team up North are looking at offering Brandon Ellis a bit of coin. I hear he's open to a move and he'll be strongly considering his options over the coming months.

Bryce Lewis was mad for him at the time. So, it's probably an apt emoticon.

A few BT. I've heard more whispers relating to the draft and who we're looking at there. I'll get into that thread in time. Obviously, I heard about Mayne a few months back, but nothing since, and I'm hoping that interest has waned. Swallow is a realistic target, and one I think we'd look...
