After watching Brisbane industrious blue collar (with a tonne of ability) take apart Geelong’s outside running mids, we need to draft the closest thing to a McCluggage/Ashfield type. I know we have blue collar Taranto and Hopper but they are temporary fixes. Is Robey good enough below his knees? Is Sharp classy enough or quick enough.

Sharp isn’t miles away from a Dunkley prototype
 
it would be very un clarke like to pick a hyped up draft bolter, he's as stubborn as pigs skin... he would've known who he was gonna pick for months.

safe & lame is the mans mantra...

fear not brother

Yeah but hes not the recruiter. Hes the guy that will trade pick 2 to another team for a couple of teens picks so that team can pinch Robey
 
Lachie Neale pick 58! Some thought he was BOG last year and some BOG second half today.
All depends on how the recruiting staff rate the talent. They may prefer a higher potential player but high risk, or move into next year if it's a stronger draft etc. There’s several strong reasons to split/trade our draft picks...or stick with current picks. But I'll back the research of the professionals over fixed views.
nah, Lachie was not BOG in my mind, last year or this year

Lachie played well without playing the first half, not sure what that means.

Maybe he likes the opposition to have the sting out of the ground in them because they have played a half before hand.

I reckon they might have stumbled on something with him and play him as a sub again sometimes.

Will Ashcroft is a superior player to Lachie in my book, from and including last year

I do not see Lachie as a barometer for the Lions which is why they won without him in finals this year

Brisbane Lions as a midfield have a lot of depth, Dunkley, McLuggage 4 goals, Bailey(should have been a heap of goals) all played roles including Levi

Raynor and others. When Neale retires I do not think it will be a great difference to this group

i will say it again midfield speed and skill. glad the lions won but my q is how are going to stop brisbane bears?
we aren't, but in our case father time is on our side, and other factors.

Baby time can be beaten, ala Will Ashcroft, Tim Watson, after Watson 1993, Baby Bombers, no one beats father time, even Danger.

if we are focused on premierships in the future it does not matter if we are looking long term, we have time on our side, our draftees have time on their side, our future draftees have time on their side

Hopper does not beat father time, so if he wants to win a premiership, he better get a move on. If Hopper moves he can help Richmond with baby time while helping him win premierships elsewhere

Heard from someone connected to another club at Grand Final breakfast they expect us to take Sharp and Robey and very unlikely we’d trade back.

I would be happy with those picks. A bit surprised that the Weagles go Duursma and Cumming (presumably?)

I like the look of Cumming over Sharp, but only just.

Grlj looks good too, but not as good as the "top 4".

Eagles are going Duursma and CDT. Lock it in. Harley is already arranging for Duursma to move in with him

Mmm I mean I’m not mad about it at all, if this is true.

Mcglugage was BOG yesterday, I have a family friend who is a lions maniac and thought so too. He was tagged hard as well.
AFL will push hard to get Ashcroft to match Dusty’s 3 norms.

Clug cashed in once the tag was removed and Geelong gave up. Was pretty well held up to that point.

Have to strongly disagree with this. Lachie Neale played one of the great halves of Grand final footy and it's no coincidence that the Lions started dominating when he came on.

I spoke to a Pies supporter, let night, who thought Geelong would belt Brisbane, Cameron has a broken arm by the way from yesterday, but had a bet on Mcluggage for the Norm Smith and felt he should have won, I have actually not seen the full game yet as busy doing other things

Dunno I know the ashcrofts don’t hard ball, or tackle, they Like to run free easy pickings. Clug had a dusty like game… 25 plus and kicks 4? That screams norm. Even Charlie Cameron 4 goals mostly when game was on the line. The AFL will push Ashcroft to be better than Dusty they love breaking records which I can’t stand, just let them play and give to the best player. Harris Andrews was enormous too gets no love??? Jaspa fletcher got 3 votes and was enormous ???.

Make sure you acknowledge this when proven on the money

Seeing as he’s extremely close with him he may tell me. He told me ages ago about Harley and Richmond, which I said on here.

Yeah well I think handling the tag, getting 26 kicking 4. 10 score involvements would do it. Zac Bailey was stiff as well, I thought the fact he kept trying whilst missing speaks volumes.
