We rely on individual brilliance rather than being a well drilled and structured team. It feels like we’ll lose against that game style in finals.

Personally I think he'd make a fantastic wingman, lovely skills on both sides of the body. The ability to turn onto your left is massive in assisting quick ball movement and wingers can often have that final kick into the forward 50 so kicking skills vital.

Rioli and Rozee had an unbelievable half of footy...

Yep, that was my take away from the game, our forwards don't or are told not to makes leads. Another year of bombing it to the top of the square.

And Luke Power as well, what a team they had...

If Luke Dunstan is coming back to SA then he'd be perfect. He's a big bodied, experienced mid that would rack them up at SANFL level. His skill level is ordinary, but that's why he never quite made it at AFL level, it's good enough for SANFL.

Made a mistake leaving him out, he'll be there as a rotating centre square mid/winger.

Possible Maggies Team: Visentini Scully Charleson Evans Lord Anastopolous Burgoyne Mead Lorenz McCallum Clurey Sinn Marshall McKenzie Williams Ist Ruck Sweet Narkle McEntee Int: Walsh, Better balanced than what we had this year.

You've simply made this up, he was trialed as a defender in the VFL at the back end of 2022. He's probably played about 20 games in total as a defender. I mean I'm sure the club would love to get a proven AFL defender, but that doesn't appear a realistic option this year, so Esava is the best...

In one if his interviews when he signed on, he said he’d had a chat about where they see him playing going forward and they said they want to try him on a wing, said he was fine with that.

Georgiades will be given a go on the wing, this is already confirmed. Bergman will finally settle onto a wing with BZT taking his spot in defence. A backline of Rat, BZT, Aliir, Houston, Jones, Burton looks much better.

And what would you do if you’re list manager? Let’s assume McKay said no to us ala Grundy…

Cripps will get Sav and BZT done, no way they declare their hand this early without assurances. Cripps will have to get creative, which based on JHF trade is his forte.

I'd love for us to be able to push Bergman and Houston to the wings. I mean Houston plays as a high half back so almost wing now anyway.

Just a reminder that we were asking for a first rounder for Ladhams and he ended up being used as a pick upgrade. What clubs say now has no bearing on what actually transpires in trade talks.

The Rat has the physical attributes to play on the big forwards, he's strong and quick for his size. I mean we're not getting the finished product in terms of a seasoned defender, he's still learning his trade. I also think the way Geelong play they don't really play man on man defence, they...

Houston for me, great player and polished media performer.

Couldn't agree more, own it, accept the penalty and ensure we do better. Nothing else needs to be said.

The club deserves a kicking on this one, anyone who suggests otherwise is deluded.

No way on god's earth are we offering 7 years, just media garbage...

Burton droppable, been poor…

Sinn’s elite leg is a myth, the odd good one doesn’t make up for the shanks and floaters.

How many games has Esava played in defence, 10-20 games? Isn't it fair to assume he'll get better with more experience and therefore has more upside than McKay? I think he'll end up at Port based on him wanting to come last year and being able to pay considerably more than Geelong.

Brilliant news, excited to see what this kid can become.

McCallum is a horrible kick of the footy, can’t see it improving enough to play AFL.

I’d prefer to get Himmelberg as a free agent and play him as a defender. I think he would suit our style where our defenders intercept mark and move the ball quickly. I heard an interview with him at the start of the year, he was definitely hoping to continue as a defender, as he did at the back...

You mean like SPP and DBJ on a half forward flank and Dylan Williams off half back? I think the two best games he’s played have been as a pressure forward.

Mmm, might want to look again...

Had a blinder of a last quarter, hopefully can keep that form…
