The Athlete applauds your use of the Athlete in your post. Well played sir you are now a member of the The Athletes. It's a good place to be

The boys are both likely to get drafted next year in my opinion. Lucas more silky and Ben extremely contested and plays tough either inside the contest in the middle or across half back. Ben needs to improve his disposal a little but can certainly win it and has good speed/endurance mix. Lucas...

The athlete finds your response amusing. The athlete has made his position clear. Tyler Welsh will struggle to be a first round pick and Hargrave is 50/50 to be drafted at all. Barratt from South Adelaide won't be drafted. Perhaps when suggesting the Athlete get a clue you should provide your...

Well I guess it will have to be bookmarked and we shall see whether the Athlete is right or not. He will be. The Athlete knows!! But just so you know it't not a guess that turns out right here is why. Welsh is 192 and doesn't look like he will grow any more. That's enough for someone who is...

hahahah Haggas did you not read what I wrote about these SA kids?

S Sorry I forgot to add Barrett highly unlikely to get drafted and you haven't included Tom Luck who is clearly in the top 3-4 from SA

I am geniunely interested if this is serious or you are just chucking names on a page. From an SA perspective you can't have ben watching these players. Hargrave no guarantee to be drafted let alone top 5. Welsh zero zero chance of top 5. Don;t have Herbert or Nicholls who are top 5 SA at this...

thanks heaps mate that is unreal!!!

what is this story?

Thanks they are some awesome ideas. I have tossed up telling the story from the ankles but don't want it just to essentially go from start to finish but who knows I might play around with your idea to open it and see how it looks. Other thing is I don't really want to go with re-enactments so...

Sorry I forgot to say my working titles are "Welcome to the Show" in honour of Campbell Brown or "The J Curve" in honour of how he literally changed the game and the way it is played today.

Hey legends I wanted to appeal to the great cat intelligence and resources we have on this board. For a long time I have been thinking of writing a documentary about the life and career of Steve Johnson. IF anyone loves the ESPN emotive docos I think Stevie would be absolutely perfect for it...

He is an absolute animal in his sheer determination to never stop getting better. You have a really top kid on your hands IMHO

Some content for you saints fans of one of your new recruits. I will post stuff when I get my hands on it but I think you can find some more interesting Mattaes stuff if you are keen @sportsminded on insta from time to time.
