Autopsy X Things you learnt vs. GWS (Incl: The Classical Music 'I love Beethoven' Thread)

[Millky95]

A process of elimination...
Hanners just signed a long contract.
They won't trade JPK that would be, there is no word to describe what that would be.
Heeney. NO.

Will get premium dollar for Parker or Mitchell. Makes sense to trade for something that we need (KPD/Ruck) to keep challenging.

Not saying that is what I want to happen, but seems like the obvious thing to happen.

I know. It looks likely. Makes sense

I just don't want it to happen haha

If Mills turns out to be all that and a bag of chips Parker or Mitchell will definitely go. They would be mad not to with the money that will be thrown at them.

 

[Millky95]

How much more praise can I give a player than that ?

"Would get a game for Hawthorn"

Or am I trolling now too?

Fair call. Parker > Mitchell then

If Mitchell stays fit IMO Mitchell >>> Parker.

I like Parker's ability to go forward (when he has his accuracy going at least) more

Mitchell has never quite added the goal kicking in, he is the better by hand and foot of the three though and younger


Will be interesting would the swans trade someone of value where we have depth to fix a need?

We have enough forward firepower. We need Mitchell's skills in the middle.

Maybe. But a mid that can also be damaging forward is always handy.

Or I've talked to vonn too much

Vonn's in love isn't she?

All sense goes out the window.

That's ridiculous, don't see Dawkthorn trading Hodge, Mitchell, Lewis or Burgoyne.

True, but they all seem to fit in nicely together. Can the same be said of our group of mids? In time I think they can be as good but unlike the Hawks we have needs elsewhere on the park which we can only realistically fill by making some sort of sacrifice in the short term.

I think the retirements of others will fill that void.

Loved his run down. I thought "Cunningham's on today, he's gonna catch your ass". Great to see him among the goals again too.

EDIT : Also that mark !

We cant get enough speed

Now to just get him jetta and rohan all fit and in form at the same time

When he's up and about, he has a bit of swagger about him. Think those two snap goals against crows last year. Hopefully he gets some confidence from the GWS game, he's an important player for us

Also liked seeing Reid clunking marks across half forward (10 was it ?). Particularly early he was playing hard, chasing hard (excellent run down), grabbing everything. Let down a bit by kicking but the effort was huge. A big bodied bloke like reid running amok and creating a bit of havoc put a lot of pressure on. He's done it in a few games now but I'd like to see it as his opening showpiece.

 

[The King!]

Reg rugby pass was also promising if he wants a career change

 

[RainMachine]

That 30ish metre chase by reid was great and I dont think he see it enough from him for a guy with that athleticism.
IF Buddy's another week so be it, I reckon our forwardline will be nice with tippo, reid and possibly rohan

We will need his marking in the finals to get out of D50, like 2012 when he would mark almost everything and we wouldn't get bogged down in our D50.

Goodes in the middle made a bit of space forward

Also felt we kept a fwd structure more this week

He's very athletic for his height and also starting to throw his body around a bit more. He seems to understand his role now (the role of being everywhere). I hope the confidence continues to grow.

Macca's distribution was spot on and Goodes hitting the congestion at pace gave us a lot of forward momentum. I really like seeing those two in the middle.

Does rose play a full game this week?
