Those 2 examples of Richmond and Geelong had 1 thing in common, Neil Balme arriving. Similar to Collingwood when he arrived in 2000 and they played in GF in 2002 and 2003. Whatever he brings to the table clubs should be looking for because the changes are significant and instant. Sorting out...

Good effort, camp, burton, hass hamstrings, Bailey tanking, GC priority picks, Keays goal and theres a sleuth of others. Burgess, Dawson, Rankine, Oliver, Michaelanny would say tide is turning

Inexperienced vs young McAdam, Hinge, Hately, Murray, Worrell are 22+ not exactly young being in the system 4+ years

Harris Andrews is the outliner. Teams that focus more on rebound are happy to go a bit shorter so looks like a trade off is worth it unless you got a Darcy Moore type that is gold.

Left footers like Dawson and Hinge allow the field to be opened up and quick transition when they get it right.

We dont have a lot of talls on the list but Worrell, Butts Murray all at 195cm and Keane 194cm compare favourably to most other sides. If Murray is gone then absolutely we need a KPD imo. Worrell I have no issue with, he's a gun. I dont think Butts is a KPD personally, certainly more an...

Media are often puppets for faceless men so it only takes one or two powerbrokers to ignite the fire. Look at Sheedy last year. Dew this year was from inside first. Kennett with Clarkson. Tex and Dawson performances have masked a lot of errors and taken the heat off Nicks over the past 2...

Just because you go to the draft doesn't mean young players will get to certain levels of games if selection policy isn't that way inclined and one must allow for injuries etc. Milera, Doedee, McPherson, Taylor, Rankine, Hamill to name a few. Worrell and Doedee are classic cases of guys...

Funny how the default is comparing to NM. Why not compared our 20-22 y.o to WB 2016 side? Youth is not NM issue its being a basket case club. When we got pumped the most it was with Sloane, Laird , MCrouch and little to do with youth. If you keep playing to many older players who arent going...

Midfield of ROB, Laird, Dawson, Sloane, Keays ave age 28.2 years.

Think about why? How many games have been given to players leaving, retiring or simply not up to it vs the kids over the past 4 years? Likes of TT, Berry could easily be over 50 games and someone like Worrell should be well above 12. Keep making excuses for a guy that sways with the wind instead...

Dew gone and hes back in the 1sts. 19 disposals and 2 goals in a loosing side

The level of incompetence is embarrassing but not as bad as how long its taken a lot of people to wake up and some still haven't. When taking into consideration Burgess influence and lack of injuries, inclusion of Rankine and Dawson and Texs resurgence thr overall improvement is bog average to...

Since 2018 13 picks under 30 and how many are starting midfielders? 0.00 We have to go back 10 years to 2013 for the last genuine starting midfielder from the main draft being M Crouch. 🤮🤮🤮🤮 Picks 1, 5 (Rankine), 6, 6, 9 , 11, 16 (plus McAdam), 17 (Dawson), 17 (Michalanney F/S), 24, 25, 28...

Out coached by a rookie coach twice in the same year. Will be a run of the mill coach that enjoys the complacency of Adelaide hierachy until the outside noise becomes to loud.

Firstly there's a high chance you have read the room incorrectly. There are times someone asks a friend or colleague to accompany them versus your insinuation it was forced upon the employee. Not only have a see an employer but 6 of his employees turn up with a company truck to remove the...

We arent privy to the facts. Im just using examples where people step in and get involved and even doing the right thing can cause people to turn on them There was mention of telling a girlfriend to have an abortion The was mention of breaking up a relationship. We dont know the why? For someone...

Are you serious? Have you ever gone to a house and rescued a women from DV? Have you ever dealt with a marriage when one person was using and destroying the family? Have you ever met two young people in a relationship who make each other miserable but cant call it off? They never denied that...

Extraordinary amount of players over 30 and logic says your right except they have been able to avoid it and i suspect they will continue. Talk out of WA a few weeks ago was Darcy will be there next year and after Jacksons performance on the weekend it may be in the best interests of Freo.

Quite possible 12 wins and good % gets it done. Ess, GC, Syd, are 8 point games and a win over ESS would be significant in the context of the season and finals.

Someone needing to throwout the conspiracy theory term usually means their in denial of most facts. AFL is championing most agendas oneway or another. Same year a 19th license and new stadium deal for Tassie. Follow the money

I still dont think Butts is the answer but serviceable coverage for when KPD is out. Himmelberg would be my 1st choice but hope we are looking at Cox either this year or next. More of a need than Redman imo even if Doedee leaves. Cox, Murray, Worrell, Michalanny become a very good 1v1 defensive...

Media are winners as are the AFL as its kept them front and centre and they take any advertising. I wouldnt be surprised if some of these dramas are being created to influence a yes vote for the voice.

Bit unfair to use Petracca as a comparison when he did an acl. When comparing to the likes of LDU, Parish, McGrath, Rayner, Cerra, Rozee, Butters miles ahead of most of those. On par with the likes of McCluggage, Taranto, Neale, Walsh. Only guys like Oliver and Nick Daicos ahead You would be...

Ifs, maybes, coulda, shoulda. If it wasnt for subbing Soligo and Dawson to defence. How about Brown as the sub and Himmelberg over TT. The fact Clarkson took over a team a lot poorer and lower than the one Nicks took over and is already 25% ahead in the W/L ratio of Nicks in the 1st year.

The 3 examples with context. Henry was an Academy pick and went early as SOS went rogue so where he went was partly irrevelant. Pickett was a SOS pick and being an expansion club was full of high picks. Collingwood took DeGoey the next pick say no more. GC had 4 picks and was a disaster draft...

Arlo Draper had concussion issues at the start of this year. 1st game back 21 possies in VFL 2nd game 24 possies 5 marks 6 tackles Looking very good and going to be hard to break into Collingwood midfield

Massive tank

Lyons and Brodie either werent requirednor couldnt make the suns side and went on to play in finals teams the following year. Next year out of contract and probably dont need our 1st which maybe a mid teen one at that so depends how he travelling. Lynch, Jenkins, Jacobs barely made their...

Yes predominantly Buckenara. Tambling was actually staying with Buckenara and Richmond were convinced Hawks were drafting him and Franklin. Richmond thought they would get Delidio at 1 and Roughead at 4 and both players have confirmed this. Hawks went Roughead and Richmond were caught off...
