Can't wait to see if it was just his injured foot that was making him crab-like in movement or notHow bloody fantastic would it be to see him back, though?
As a hockey player who has shitty feet, shins, and knees, I'm fairly confident that's what it is. Ready to be proven wrong, but fingers crossed.Can't wait to see if it was just his injured foot that was making him crab-like in movement or not
Looked like OP, whatever it was he's had a hell of a lot of rest from it.Can't wait to see if it was just his injured foot that was making him crab-like in movement or not
The only way i could improve on this team, is to find a replacement for dawes. Whether that is pederson, frost not sure. Seems like dixon is going to the power, so forget that oneA few pointers about this side. Feel free to debate
-unless we trade in some gems, Harmes cements his spot in the Best 22 if he has a good pre-season. I really hope the club elevates him off the rookie list. I am very excited by what he can produce, and given his leap and contested marking I reckon he makes a potential target on the half-forward line
-whilst we're all a bit disappointed with Lumumba and his drop off from pace and run from half-back, poor disposal, and inability to rack up the touches, defensively I still reckon he's been alright which is why he holds his spot in the team, but as a half-back, not a winger
-I'd want Trengove playing at bare minimum a month of solid VFL football before getting him anywhere near the first team. It's been such a long time
-If he ever comes back, Frost is best 22. Frost provides pace and can pinch hit in the ruck, something that we need given Gawn is still developing his tank and Dawes cannot pinch hit very well. Personally, I'd play him up forward unless Garland leaves as we are quite settled defensively
-We all hope Jimmy Toumpas makes the first team and shows his potential but he has not done enough for my liking yet to cement a best 22 spot
-If Petracca has a good pre-season he should be in Best 22, if he is as good as he is rumoured to be
-Grimes needs to work hard if he wants to be back in the side or rely on other players injuries. Still makes too many mistakes and not damaging enough by foot for my liking.
-Obviously expect the likes of Kennedy-Harris, Michie, Pederson, Toumpas, O McDonald and our top draft pick or traded in player to play games at stages throughout the season depending on injures and form etc
Only difference between this team and current list is absence of Cross, and assumed absence of Howe. Garland I'm hopeful will stay

To much congestion trying to sign them all at onceI'm seeing a real lack of Bennell, Dangerfield, Treloar, Dixon, Carlisle and Prestia... aren't we a destination club

I thought prestia has re-signed with the suns?
Prestia was never out of contract. Is contracted for 2016 and decided to honour that contract rather than seek a tradeI thought prestia has re-signed with the suns?
Roos said we would be active traders, not much left, bennell, redden, carlilse...anyone else?

Also, Jetta?

Don't care if it isn't going to happen this is my team. Dawes, Lumumumba, Howe, Grimes traded. Garland let go. 4 runners in defense to get movement happening, a super mobile forward line around Hogan with Brayshaw and Vandenburg also rotating through. Tougher, quicker and more skilled is the theme. Hopefully we bring in a gun in trade week to push Harmes out of the 18.
He's got the size, strength and athleticism of a classic full forward. 20 years ago it would have been the kid's assumed starting position and I still think it would still work. Was a 100KG key forward until his last 18's year where he slimmed down to 95 and went into the middle. Reckon we'd be a matchup nightmare for opponents with the team I posted and we'd lock the ball in a lot better. Plus there's Pedo there too, he is sooooo much better than Dawes.A first-gamer at full forward? That's Hogan-like!
