    Yeah, worth noting in that Curnow match up Draper was a 20 years old playing on a 27 year old. Draper might end up being the Johnno type! But I don't think we really know yet. He's playing that role because he hasn't had enough time to condition his body into a real KPD physique. Look at how Sam...

    Aleer. I like his athleticism next to Weitering. Wont cost a fortune in trade or $. Don't think we could afford SDK or Lever.

    Some excellent names there, we/I would love on the list. Realistically, with the drafting of HOF, moving JSOS back, adding Haynes and having the luxury of swinging Kemp back as well as Lewis Young, who I remain amazed can’t work with Weiters, we have enough short term options. Quality costs both...

    My knock on Nick has always been his marking and lack of physical game. He has always been a guy who can get 15 - 20 possessions in the VFL so that side does not worry me. Obviously he is a little stronger this year so he can hold his own in the ruck and in the ruck contests on Saturday he was...

    Training Pre-Season 2025 - The boys are back in town.

    Thats interesting because watching the Intraclub all I could think of was, "wow everything Sturt touches turns to gold" My second thought was that I'm definitely worried that he is going to be such a massive "what could have been" He was definitely blowing up in the later quarters, fitness is...

    Training Pre-Season 2025 - The boys are back in town.

    Sam Sturt maybe. Reid's played mostly half forward in match sims from what I can tell. Sam Sturts lost a bit of ground in my eyes as far as training form goes. Both Draper and Reid would be locks if it was based purely on training form in my eyes. Obviously its not so the preseason matches will...

    I’ve not been a fan of the Draper/ Bryan combo simply because I don’t see Bryan as a threat beyond the centre bounce. Having said that, I’d be absolutely stoked if he came on as a footballer and was able to impact the game as a forward and become a marking presence around the ground. Are you...

    [emoji120] thanks Ant, your write ups much appreciated. Good to see Perkins in his natural position and sounds fit. I'm worried about the forward set-up again. Draper playing as the fwd/ruck will give highlights, but I doubt he will be the consistent presence we need to stop leaving D50. I'd...

    Not a lot to add about today. With McKay / Ridley / Laverde / Jones doing various levels of rehab work the tall brigade is a bit stretched for match sim. Only 4 quarters this week. No interchange. Essendon traditional jumpers had the strong side for the first 2 quarters and had an 8 goal lead at...

    Jedwab and Toma are the only ones we desperately want to keep. Bailey Scott is a loss, he's a good solid player. Give it a rest dude. He's retired. It's not even remotely relevant, you just look pathetic.

    So are you saying Darcy would have played more if he wasnt on such a long contract? No I dont think so,. If a good ruck is one of the most important players in the team and if you have a really good one and if other teams are coming for him with longer or more valuable contracts what do you...

    Sam Berry is not best 22. A fit M Crouch will be in the team and we now have Peatling also. Main midfielders will be Dawson, Crouch, Soligo, Peatling, Rankine. Rachele to go through there at times. I dont have Berry in the 22. He's too similar to Crouch and Peatling. Crouch is a much better...
