.... and then when you win the ball, slam it on your boot or handball it to a team mate 1 metre away from you.

Usually about 3 minutes before the start of the game.

Being a Saints supporter has an adverse effect on anybody's clarity of thought. Speedy recovery!!

Ruptured achilles does most players in.

Gresham is averaging less possessions but slightly more goals per game than he did with Saints last year. Either way - I wouldn't be paying that much for this sort of output...

Game plan is starting to look more and more like Richo's when he barely had enough players to field a team. Flood back but don't run forward too much.

I reckon the match ups will be JHF will line up on Steele, Rozee will pick up Windhager, Wines with a run with role on Ross and Butters to tag Garcia.

Wow - now thats the sort of radical change I was expecting after last weeks game.

If Kings out I'd definitely go with Campbell in the ruck and Marshall fwd. And Owens in the middle And Phillipou at Sandy And Garcia as a mid And Collard fwd And Howard in defence And Jones as the sub

Yep a couple of weeks of relative calm to start the PGE, but now its starting to slip backwards.

Great report - only missing one important detail - did you talk to Ross?

Quick look at the AFL injury list shows about 8 to 10 players listed as hamstring injury's still more than 5 weeks away from returning. Another 8 or 10 who are closer so being fit - I've got no idea how long they've been sidelined prior to this week. So clearly its not something unique to the...

I think you've missed the directive from the AFL that injury recovery estimates now must be more realistic than the ever hopeful - "Hamstring - 2 weeks". Thats why we are seeing some players come back a bit earlier than original expected.

No he didn't. Sure he was in the centre square alongside Daicos at times, but so was Rowan Marshall.

Played the last 6 games at Carlton last year as a mid. Averaged 7 clearances a game including 4 centre clearances a game - Jack Steele has averaged 1.7 centre clearances a game so far this year. Dow will help.

No problem with Ross playing but his job now is as a run with player. You need 6 or 7 players capable of running through the midfield for minutes each game. We get everyone back from injury and options look a lot better. Steele, Dow, Windhager, Henry, Ross, Clark, Sinclair, Jones, Phillipou...

Yeah and unfortunately the next week he was sent back to tagging. I like the idea of Marshall Steele Dow and Windhager together - seems a really solid attacking midfield.

Sanders would want to be far better than a "nice start" - cost them Pick 10 & 17 last year and this years 1st rounder to get him and a couple of late picks. I reckon you'd be screaming for blood if we did that.

Leading goal kicker in the AFL at the moment has kicked 25.7 (75% conversion rate). King has kicked 6.6 (50%) King clearly needs to add the "Hogan Stutter" to help with his accuracy.

Aside from those in actual contention, clubs like Gold Coast and North would be a suitable target. Both Gold Coast and North will have a shedload of talent who will all want money around the same time. North may prefer to give a a first rounder so they can then pay for LDU, Sheezel, Wardle...

I don't expect it of Reid but sometimes players come in and make a huge impact but then don't progress. https://www.footywire.com/afl/footy/ft_player_compare?playerStatus1=A&tid1=19&playerStatus2=I&tid2=12&type=A&pid1=7045&pid2=3935&fid1=O&fid2=O

I did - AFL players with type 1 diabetes Jamie Cripps - 234 games Sam Reid - 181 games Nathan Bassett - 210 games Dale Weightman - 274 games

No I think its moved onto a discussion about outright pick purchasing. The idea being discussed now is that a clubs could directly buy draft picks from a club (most likely one in contention and with salary cap issues) and the money they get for selling the pick is then added to their salary cap...

Doubt that any on that list (other than Howard) would net us a pick. But lets say we snag a couple of extra late picks for players, that gives us 6 draft picks to be used how ever (4 draft picks and a couple of trades???), then sign a delisted free agent as "depth" then a hold over list spot...

Don't believe any of this talk about a "rebuild". What we will be doing is what every club does every season - turns over a portion of their list in the search for players either through the draft or trade. Might have a different focus because of a different coach but it isn't a "rebuild" We...

What's a "hard rebuild" and how do you achieve it? If it involves delisting "list cloggers", where do you get the additional high draft picks to secure either quality draftees or satisfy trade requirements? If it involves getting additional high draft picks, who are you trading out to get...

Caminiti is the least of our problems https://www.footywire.com/afl/footy/ft_player_compare?playerStatus1=A&tid1=16&playerStatus2=A&tid2=8&type=A&pid1=7133&pid2=6491&fid1=O&fid2=O

I think I've made this observation a few times but didn't realise how appallingly bad we are in this area.
