Player Watch #5 Jack Ross - Extended Until 2028
We play the kids to get games and experience into them at the level. The expectation of most is we won't win a lot of games, but it will be a big bonus if we do it with the kids. I dont think we are gunna win many games with our most experienced players all playing so what is there to lose and... -

Player Watch #5 Jack Ross - Extended Until 2028
other options for the wing but i agree Algar could play wing or hb in time. who knows thats where he may end up. For now though he is one of few who looks to have forward smarts and craft. His Preseason by all reports has been good so he must be in contention. Have called for Campbell to play... -

Player Watch #5 Jack Ross - Extended Until 2028
In front of who. He is one of four experienced mids we have and by nearly all metrics he is behind Hopper, Taranto and Prestia. You surely are not suggesting Lalor, Smillie, and Hotton and McAuliffe all who had serious injuries problems last year are not to be played given the very fact we are... -

Player Watch #5 Jack Ross - Extended Until 2028
He still has Hopper, Prestia, Taranto in front of him. They are all similar in many ways to Ross .Just no way we can play all four imo. I continue to ask the question if those three are in front of him still and by most metrics they are its a fact we cant just fob off, then who does he play in... -

Player Watch #16 Josh Smillie
Hmm quad requiring surgery. Looked it up it can take up to 12 months to recover from that surgery. Not sure how anyone can put a time frame on this issue.And if they are id like to know the thinking. -

Player Watch #6 Sam Banks
don't think he had a good start to the year at all. He was okay and very similar to the back half of 2024. It wasn,t until Short got injured and he got that loose almost exclusive outside role that people talk about improvement. Think that role just about anyone can play with half a footy... -

Player Watch #28 Kane McAuliffe
they all fit pretty easily just like Lambert, Cotchin, Martin, Edwards, Grigg, Caddy, Prestia even Graham did in our premiership years. Imo all primarily mids But Martin Edwards and Lambert were important parts of both mid rotations and our forward half set up.. Some had pure mid roles and... -

Player Watch #17 Maurice Rioli Jnr
Already im playing Hotton, Lalor, Smillie, McAuliffe, ND#3,Ross, Taranto Hopper and old man Prestia in front of him in the midfield. The reality is he has survived on a few highlight run down tackles he does not have the motor, skills, cleanness always fumbling or ability to consitently get... -

Player Watch #28 Kane McAuliffe
He adds that real point of difference to Taranto Hopper and Prestia nowdays who has lost pace. He is big powerful quick fast and explosive all words sum up his game. He is a brute of a tackler only 20 and is one of not many mids we have who looks capable of going from inside a contest to... -

Player Watch #28 Josh Gibcus
100% right. what did we putv into his development as a junior? you know what absolutely nothing. We had the good fortune to have pick 9 and this highly talented junior kpd was available yet some how he owes us on that count as well. -

Geez that is a genuine slap in the face to Puopolo. -

Player Watch #17 Maurice Rioli Jnr
Please enlighten me apart from the run downs which are not that many by the way, what does he actually display that is elite ??? He is ordinary in almost everything. -

Player Watch #28 Kane McAuliffe
He may be tidy and make good decisions but nothing about Ross says hurt factor. He is just meh in everything he does. At the least Taranto and Hopper can be relied upon to win a lot of inside ball what outstanding attribute does Ross display. Kicking well not really. And to be honest Prestia if... -

Player Watch #28 Kane McAuliffe
Ross may well have clocked a quick time but he sure as hell rarely produces that pace in games and is widely critiqued for it.. -

Player Watch #28 Kane McAuliffe
Minus two if Sonsie and Dow are really gone. Plus minus 3 at seasons end if Prestia retires so back to where we are now. List right now is about 4 mids short for mids imo. With trades delistings retirements it may take 3 years to get that number right. But that all good we are in early...
