Agree with you, bit of a hybrid player who seems to do most things okay but nothing really well to set him apart from other playersI’d call him a high half forward. Hasn’t done much on the wing or as a small forward.

You've got a point because last year he was rarely named in the staring 18 as a half fwd (twice I think); it was usually wing or interchange (roughly 10x each cant remember). It would be interesting to see his "heat maps" from last year. Imo, he hasn't really stamped his name on a role under Fagan. He has 1 solitary Brownlow vote to his name. A good ordinary player perhaps?Is Taylor a small forward though or a link up wingman who kicks a goal or two per game.?
So unless he is either top 7 in possessions or between 8th and 20th on the goalkickers list then he will be in the reserves??
He won't get to either mark I hate to say and I like Lewy Taylor. Considering he hasn't missed a game in the last 2 years I think you're off base.
Yes he needs to improve but that can be said of most of the list. You're expecting exponential improvement for a guy who is never going to average 30 touches or 2 to 2.5 goals a game.
Potty mouth?I know everyone is going to think that this is pure 100% unadulterated dross but I have never claimed to know any inside goss, and probably never will again.
My step sister is best friends with Ryan Lester’s sister. She informed me that Zorko and Kalinda were separated and he had been staying at Lester (and Emma’s) place. And that he hadn’t slept with anyone or cheated, that it was only texting. And that Kalinda now feels really s**t and guilty for going public and hanging Zorko out to dry.
I personally am not a huge fan of Zorko. But in this instance it appears as though he is the victim.
FWIW my step sister also said that Lewis (Zorko’s son) is cute as hell, but has a “potty mouth”.

I'm pretty sure that would be just for the T20, and yes I agree it was bloody loud, are you a cranky old man shouting at clouds like me Big Sauce?Did notice field tonight, also noticed extremely loud PA system is back
Kev Mitchell Jnr was one of the best curators in Australia and seeing as it is the Brisbane Cricket Ground the wicket kinda matters.Got some free tickets to the Big Bash tonight, not a fan of T20 but couldn't knock back a freebe.
Anyway the point of this post is to say that the outfield looks in pristine condition for the upcoming most important season, doesn't look splotchy like it has in the past, maybe the new groundsmen is concerned with more than just the wicket block.
Adele’s disease.The grass issue was a disease of some description, I couldn't find any info on this but seem to recall an article or 2 at the time.
Agree the wicket block was fantastic, the outfield though was ordinary for quite a while. Now that you mention it I do have a faint recollection of the disease issue, still I think it is well established that Kevin Mitchell Jnr was no fan of the Lions using "his" ground and that we were no fan of his. Hopefully the new groundsman has a more supportive stance re all the Gabba tenants.Kev Mitchell Jnr was one of the best curators in Australia and seeing as it is the Brisbane Cricket Ground the wicket kinda matters.

“Yeah a fair bit,” Swann said. “I don’t like talking about him (Mitchell) much, I just call him the bloke who cuts the grass, but if he had his way there wouldn’t be footy on the ground at all.
“He’s a cricket man and it certainly seems to get the priority as far as we can see and this is a good example of it.
“A couple of wickets in the middle got re-sown so that they’d be ready for a Test in November and it’s buggered us up along the way.”
Swann wasn’t the only one furious with the grand final stuff up as Brisbane legend Jonathan Brown and former Lions coach Leigh Matthews lashed out at Mitchell.
Brown was disappointed but not surprised by the turn of events given his experience with the venue’s management over the course of his decorated playing career.
“I lived this for 15-16 years ... the AFL are second-rate citizens in Brisbane, especially when it comes to the Gabba,” Brown told Fox Footy on Monday night. “It’s all about the cricket. Fair dinkum, for the government heavyweights not to be able to step in in this situation ... it’s like Kevin Mitchell is the be-all and end-all there.
“It’s an absolute disgrace.
“We’re trying to grow AFL in Queensland still and for it not to be at the Gabba is really disappointing.”
Brown said he had even been required to ask permission to have a kick out on the turf in the middle of football season, such was the curator’s authority.
