I think I would be more at peace if we chose Leake at 10 and traded up to Wilson at 13. Gothard is a very typical GWS pick tbf but with McMullin, Jones, Peatling and arguably Stone developing alongside O'Halloran, Brown, Greene, Daniels and Bedford, the small forward role is probably not the go...
Only reason was North must've threatened to trade up to a high teens pick for gothard. Can't see any other real reason. That 2nd pick a bit of a weird trade imo since Wilson to me is equal in talent, also fills a need and suits our gamestyle. Maybe he was really against coming to Sydney or they...
I like him, looks like a hard worker, quick and nimble. My only gripe, which is not necessarily even a bad thing, is that he runs and plays alot like Binga. Hunts the ball, reliable and a great 'assist', team-first player. The club may in fact choose for that I suppose.
But in an ideal world, I...
Love the idea of Collard for some X-factor. Would think if we went smaller with our 2nd pick, would be going for O'Sullivan with our first pick. Again with only Aleer and Haynes as KPD in defence, would likely need to draft 1 more key position player to supplement our stocks.
Collard would be...
The more I watch Leake's highlights the more I warm to him. When playing midfield, the disposal from congestion is a bit wild at times but really hunts the ball/player both offensively and defensively. Has goalkicking sense in front of goals and holds his position well, playing stronger than he...
Neither would of their own accord nominate us. We need to do the ground work, approach them and be keen. We have to be active to attract players to us at this stage. Only way we maintain a constant flow of elite young and middle aged talent.
Personally, JUH would demand more money and more...
If we miss out on Elliot Himmelberg, every chance we get him even cheaper the following yr. But with Haynes' contract ending next yr, any chance we have the money to have a crack at Sam Darcy in 2024 given most of the Dog's attention will be on holding onto JUH. Massive contracts for...
He looks very composed with ball in hand and has good vision/kicking skills for a key position height player. His 20m massage kick in between defence and into forward 50 is low and directed. Rare in a player with the height of a key position player. Appears technically a much more assured kick...
My thought is if we draft the Wizard, he will be playing round 1 deep in the forward pocket with Snooze. Basically freeing up Stormy to roam into the midfield more often.
Caddy is talented, but for me it's just the number of developing key forwards we have on our list vs key backs. The VFL...
Played 9 SANFL games, averaged 2.2 goals (4 goals x3 times, 3 goals x1, 2 goals x2) and 3.8 tackles. Fits the mould of player we are trying to get and creative inside forward 50. Dont hate the idea like everyone else, but as with all our small forwards, the issue will be soft tissue injuries and...
I think if we do try to tempt Melbourne, it won't be using Finn or Cadman. We had Taranto/Hopper previously who were great inside mids. Clayton, albeit a better version of them, at the expense of Finn would at least in my opinion take us back to our one-paced, contested Leon Cameron model...
Brown was shocking in front of goal. Bedford with an easy miss. Keefe missing the handball to TFG. Tom Green out on the full instead of passing to an open team mate. Umpires had poor calls both ways, but that one was lost on our own boots.
Proud of the effort and the season nevertheless.
