Weren't we saying this a generation ago though? "Our core isn't Armo, Gilbert, Hickey, Weller... It's Billings, Acres, Lonie, Steele..." Starting to think the issue isn't drafting or talent identification, it's development. If we have botched the Marshall/Steele era and are looking to the...

I hope they send Gresh to him for a 'defensive' job. Do Essendon actually have any defenders? King out sucks. Who comes in? Hayes ready? Keeler for a taste? Time to unleash the Moose?

This is what Scotty Watters meant when he said we could be a juggernaught. Then the media ripped him apart.

I hate kids making their debut as the sub. Something about it just really rubs me the wrong way and I feel like, culturally, it's something that clubs should get right away from. If Collard is good enough to play then let him play and get a few touches. Feel his way into it. Don't sit him...

Witts yep Goldstein yep Gawn - Split time with Jackson and Grundy until the back end of last year. Lycett - Dixon, Finlayson, missed games... Grundy - Cameron/Cox, Gawn Not very often teams roll with a single ruck playing such a high % of game time across the season. If...

Big year for Max Heath. RoMa will be 29 at the end of the year and we can't keep relying on him to ruck 90% of games, 25+ weeks of the year. If Heath is still off the mark then I could see us making a play for someone to come in and split time.

Yep. The classic "I tipped them to make the top 6 and they've failed..."

Premier: GWS Losing GF: Brisbane Rest of Top 8, in order: Carlton Collingwood Melbourne Adelaide Sydney St Kilda Brownlow: Bontempelli Coleman: Larkey Rising Star: Walter Saints B&F: Owens Break out: Windhager Fade out: McGovern bros to retire mid season. Coaches sacked or move: Bevo...

I would have LOVED McLean from Sydney. Perfect player for us ATM. Not a heap of options in 2024 so alot on the development of Heath and Keeler.

Nuts that we are talking about wanting to "move past" our clear #1 mid and one of the best 2 way mids in the comp. Top 18 for tackles per game and of those players he's topp 10 for goal assists LEgit, elite, inside ball player.

Crouch ave 6 tackles a game. That puts him in the top 18 in the comp. Of those 18: 10 players had more goal assists 2 players kicked more goals - Brayshaw & Bont Crouch kicked more goals than Steele, Laird, Dawson, Dunkley, Mitchell & Libba who were all in the AA discussion. I can appreciate...

FB: Wilkie - Howard - Webster HB: NWM - Battle - Windhager C: Hill - Steele - Wood HF: Butler - King - Henry FF: Higgins - Sharman - Cordy R: Marshall - Crouch - Sinclair I: Owens - Dow - Phillipou - Ross S: Rotational I think we want to get Sincs on ball in 2024. WIth Windy playing HB late in...

Some great Qs I would presume the following: Costs: The AFL Reserves Comp could be sold to Kayo/Fox etc to help generate some extra revenue. That would also help attract sponsors. Gen Admin ticket prices would go up. Nothing huge but $5 across the board would help. I assume club memberships...

But that's perfectly fine. The clubs want full control over development. They will get that with the NRC (National Reserves Comp) even if it means topping up the list with kids and also rans. I could see playing coaches becoming a thing. Guys like Selwood, Betts & JRoo could be paid a coaches...

Hold ya horses. There's still time for RTB to name Windy as Co captain or something...

Picked Longmuir. Depends on how hard the Freo fans/media go at him vs Peter Bell & the list management team but the expectation was for Freo to push into the top 4-6 this by 2024. Same sort of situation at the Dogs. Bevo is an absolute space cadet but I rekon he's starting to sell the idea...

6 years on, I'm ok with letting it go. We've held onto the past for way too long, hoping guys would come good. Time to seriously look at the future and raise the bar on the skill level and training standards around the club.

Hoping Heath gets a couple of games next year. Rucks seem to fly around every off season so, even if he feels he's not going to get a gig with us, a few good games will up his value. Going to be very interesting to see how we line up our best 28-30 guys. I don't think a best 23 really works...

Sconemakers Can we nickname him The Baker?

Exactly. Club had a feeling this would happen which is why they were willing to let Gresh and Billings go.

Arie would legit eat him for a post workout snack. Can you imagine the campaigner vibes that Arie and Pou are gonna be sending each other during games? FMD I'm so happy SOS pulled that trigger. Saints are gonna be ******* awesome to watch over the next few years

Petition to sponsor Arie please boydie

I'm so ******* hard right now

Hahahhahahahahahahaaaaaa Amazing

Shot in the dark - #1 - Paddy Dow #2 - Phillipou #4 - Caminiti #15 - Darcy Wilson #23 - Liam Henry #24 - Lance Collard #25 - Sharman #27 - Riley Bonner #34 - Angus Hastie #37 - Hugo Garcia #41 - Arie Shoenmaker #45 - Liam O'Connell

Do we know if anyone went to Arie Shoenmaker's birthday party?

https://central.rookieme.com/afl/player/hugo-garcia/ "Garcia was still able to hit the scoreboard, but more importantly brought defensive pressure wherever he went, balancing between offensive and defensive modes that helped his side." RTB might have a new favorite player...

Lolol Who?

Would LOVE Shoenmaker with our next pick. Perfect Coff replacement on the list. If Henry takes the #23 then give Lance the #24. Locker buddies. Also puts him next to Pou which helps.

Looks a player. SOS & RTB clearly looking to rebuild the midfield around speed and athletic ability. Seb Ross would be worried, especially if his hammy goes again...
