    Player Watch #40: Eddie Ford

    He was only smart, because he had plenty of time to study while injured, if he'd managed to spend more time training/playing, would probably be dumb as dog s**t. It's one of life's great dilemma's:grinning:

    Past #17: Lachie Young - NM trade #63 for LY in '20 trade period - delisted end '23 - 39 NM games / 1 NM goal - thanks Lachie

    I know you can't compare under age footy to AFL, but his draft video package certainly highlighted very good skills, regarding kicking depth/penetration to advantage, hopefully he can bring that to us over a long career, as you state, with only 8 games with dogs, hard to get the full picture.

    Players who have actually got better in their early 30s

    I'm going to throw in one from left field....John Blakey, from the age of 30-35 (Seasons 96-01) missed only 2 matches, in an era where North were playing 22-25 games a season, averaging about 18 disposals off half back, great user of the footy, still had good pace, tough as nails, couldn't ask...

    I've never been a fan of Hawkins, but i think he's improved, i think age has moulded him into the ultimate professional, can't quote stats, but just watching some of his games, in a world where goal kicking has become appalling, he seems to have worked on his kicking and is very dependable.

    Past #50: Ben Brown - Traded to Melbourne with 2020 #28 + 2021 R4 for 2020 #26 #33 + 2021 R4(Bris) - 130 gms / 287 gls - thanks Ben

    I think everyone's got this arse about. If we retain Brown, he hopefully kicks 40/55 goals, Larkey is the man, if we keep Brown, Larkey in my eyes, becomes a 60+ goal kicker and if combined they can get it to over 100 between them, we're not finishing 9th!!!

    Past #15: Paul Ahern - delisted after 24 NM games/6 NM goals - thanks Pauly

    I make this comment broadly to all of us, but I think the time for pointing out deficiencies and laying the boots into players departing the club has been and gone, these posts should be thanking them or wishing them well, if not, then.....shut the fock up!!!
