Imagine imagining something that never happened.

Imagine imagining something that never happened.

For what it's worth you should take over the clubs social media, your stuff is way less cringey and lame.

Not wrong. I still laugh at the Austen Tacious / Richo mash up from years back whenever I think about it.

Former Carlton defender Liam Stocker is set to train with St Kilda in a bid to resurrect his AFL career.
The former Blue, who was cut from Carlton after 28 games in four years, is keen to trial with the club when preseason training starts for the first-to-fourth year players next week.

Stocker, 22, wants to show he is worth a second chance at the top level after struggling to cement a regular position in navy blue last year.

Delisted Essendon key position player Josh Eyre is also considering a potential opportunity to train at a new club after he was dumped by the Bombers.

Ex-Essendon speedster Conor McKenna is also on St Kilda’s radar along with Brisbane, Port Adelaide and Geelong after deciding to return to Australia from Ireland.

Liam Stocker could be taken by the Saints in the supplemental selection period.
Stocker, from Sandringham, could add to the Saints’ defensive stocks with best and fairest Jack Sinclair expected to push for more time in the midfield in 2023 after an excellent season.

Stocker showed considerable promise as a tough ballwinner in his draft year, but there were concerns over his fitness and ability to break into the midfield at Carlton.

Stocker has recently questioned those doubts about his fitness base and said he was eager to maximise his potential after battling with life in the hubs throughout the Covid-19 pandemic.

Stocker also had to deal with the spotlight which followed him after Carlton traded its future first-round draft pick with Adelaide to snare him at pick 19 in the 2018 draft.


If he impresses, Stocker could be taken by the Saints in the supplemental selection period which allows clubs to select players without using a draft pick.

Liam Stocker could be a handy addition to the Saints’ defensive stocks.
It will be a new chapter for St Kilda under second-time coach Ross Lyon who was headhunted by the club to take over from Brett Ratten.

It will be a homecoming for Lyon after coaching the club to three grand finals and four finals campaigns from his five seasons in charge between 2007-11.

St Kilda greats Robert Harvey and Lenny Hayes have also returned to the club along with respected football boss Geoff Walsh in a bid to help lift the Saints under Lyon in their 150th year.

But the list lacks top-end talent after loading up on mature-age and role players in recent years.

The Saints have pick nine in this year’s draft after deciding to keep hard nut Hunter Clark.

You’ve just described George’s life thus far, Doc.
Put yourself in his (tiny) shoes, as a lonely, hairy Greek Pygmy - can you blame him?

Did giggle when i read that

Pretty happy with Stocker. There is a player there.

A lot of Blues fans were disappointed when they de-listed him. Has had some well-publicised battles, would be a great story if he made it as a player.

Quote - hard nut Hunter Clark. LOL.

He is a certified hard nut. Let's not forget when he got absolutely poleaxed in that game against North a few years back, he miraculously came back on the field and just about won the game for us. That knock turned him from a boy into a man and he played like it. He has a lack of effort (my opinion), not a lack of courage.

100% he doesnt lack courage

Reminds me of Mark Waugh so much talent but so laid back

 

[moirae42]

Yeah courage is not one of his problems.

Wasn't he the one that Carlton supporters laughed at fir moving up the draft table to pick him? Or was that, someone else?

It must be hiding pretty well then. Seriously though, hope he does well and wins a spot. Good on him for having another crack, there must have been something there for Carlton to jump at.

A number of Carlton supporters were pretty upset he got the chop.

The knock is his tank.

Twomey had him going to Richmond at pick 20 in his mock draft that year.

From Sandringham Dragons/Vic Metro

Stocker won the Morrish Medal in the TAC Cup after storming home in the back end of the season, having missed the NAB AFL Under-18 Championships with a broken jaw. He's a big and strong midfielder who is great at the stoppages, a nice kick on both feet and will back himself to play plenty of senior footy next year. An articulate, confident character who might have been ranked a little higher if not for his interrupted first half of the season. The Tigers lost some depth in the midfield in the Trade Period and bringing in another ball-winner could be a priority.
