    Would have been nice to see Flynn get a game, from the outside it certainly feels like he's built up a body of work and deserves a go. Overall, I'm pretty content that we've chosen the likes of Lord & Moir ahead of some of the elder statesmen. Would be nice to see Flynn, Wilson, & Ison get a...

    but what about when basic skills, d50 stoppages and giving up significant momentum swings have effective been 'our brand' for 5 years? Is that still not on the coaches?

    Mate, I said "we all know if they pick Lord it's going to be as a defensive winger or half fwd or something dumb anyway", I wasn't even calling for his selection, I was commenting that we play him in outside roles that don't suit him. I'd also argue that the best he's looked was when that slow...

    I think his performances as on ball, tagging the likes of butters, serong, and anderson, were significantly better than any of the times he’s played the wing/flank/outside roles. You mention our experienced like they’ve got some kind of positive history of talent development, positional...

    And on Thursday, in terms of centre ball-up attendances, it was Walsh 87% Cripps 74% Hewett 70% Smith 65% Lord 4% (just the one) As well as Pitto 83% O’Keeffe 17% So basically 4 mids sharing every centre ball up.

    He also hates a bit of attention. Lord can mind him at stoppage. Bit of a hard read from last week - what with Gulden out so early (33% & 2 CBA), plus the weather, plus it being a practice match - but their 'main four' was Warner, Rowbottom, Sheldrick, and McInerney, plus cameos from Heeney...

    so they find upwards and 1.8 over a minimum of 8, then give up the highest pick value ever traded. what if they get him and he blows consecutive knees? Or they get him and just don’t win the flag? You know, because it’s bloody hard to do. Either way they’re handcuffed on list management for...

    I think not waiting for the rucks to lumber across from the other side of the ground will have some impact too. It’s a double edged sword; if the new rules favour athletic rucks jumping at the contest, that works in favour of a high vale player like TDK, but if there’s less ruck contests in...

    Newman - yeah but also coming off a missed season with the knee and working through hammy issues, was never really a run and carry player anyway Saad - yeah but despite the positive preseason reports so far he's been trending down of late and not in some peoples 23s these days Cowan - yeah but...
