It'll be option 2. Similar to last week.
English is in this week but I doubt we'll get much from him. I'm not too convinced in his mental fortitude to push through a return from injury and might be a bit hesistant. I think Jackson is going to make him look very silly and is someone that can...
It takes a very special feat to play 76 games and never once be in the top 20 players on the ground.
I genuinely don't think he's ever played one game and I've though 'geez McNeil was good today'. At his absolute best, he's a passable bottom 6 player. At his worst which is quite often, he's a...
The funny part was selecting Gardner and then dropping him a week later.
I mean what did they expect he would produce? Last weeks performance was literally was he's produced his whole career. It'll be the same with Coffield when he drops and easy mark and gets pushed off the ball by Voss 5 times.
This is going to be an absolute flogging. We just need to minimise the damage. It might be our biggest loss under Bevo (2021 grand final).
I'm more optimistic about the upcoming weeks if the health of English, Bont, Ed, Libba & Arty (and then JOD & Lobb) improve.
The backline is diabolical...
It's not as bad as it was 12 months ago. Sellwood & Jacques look like long term players. Budarick is a good small defender and Dale is the distributor.
If you were to bring in another medium defender, you would have to sacrifice the third KPD which I'm not against doing. I've been wanting a...
I's negligence by the club. 'Why would we bring in any marginal KPDs when they are't better than what we have?' was the line used.
Sam Frost is no good and he would've been our best KPD for 2026.
I tend to agree.
Even moreso if the symptons are ongoing. I initially thought he was feeling fine (even shortly after the game) after a minor concussion and that the club was just being conservative after another knock. Clearly not the case at all.
If English, Libba, Naughton & Jones play on Friday, we’ll ‘only’ have 7 players on the injury list.
Darcy, Weightman, Lobb, JOD, Budarick, Garcia & Kennedy.
I'm glad El Souki looks a need as well and could slot in as early as next season.
I wonder if we'll see a lot more bids on father son/NGA selections go unmatched with the removal of the discount.
The half forward role is by far the hardest to play in the AFL, even moreso for younger players. You get stuck in no mans land too often.
If we cast out minds back 7 or 8 years ago, our own Ed Richards was plonked on the half forward flank with minimal impact. I don't like developing younger...
