    Essendon might be dumb enough to go for him They are desperate for inside mids as well

    Injury Injury Report - Lalor 8-12 Prestia & Sims 3-4 Hotton 6-8 Clarke 7-10

    No Lalor?

    Agree, he’s a little bit in that Caddy mould where he’s a little bit caught between being a genuine key position marking target and a small pressure player and when we have the choice of one or the other coaches tend to pick the specialist at one role over the player who is adequate at both...

    Oh if that’s the case disregard it 😂 Was purely working under the assumption he was out of contract must of missed he still had another year to run

    Even the fact that oppo coaches matched up their best defenders on Faull instead of Fawcett when they were the only two big forwards in the side across a handful of games says a lot imo

    He’s out of contract isn’t he and would be an UFA? Might just be something he wants to do

    Even down back It’s gone a little bit un celebrated over his time with us but Nank has saved a lot of goals and even saved games with a strong mark in the backline

    I would make a ton of sense I would be shocked if Geelong didn’t try to get him over Would ****ing hate it all the same

    Absolutely agree, just trying understand what would be the thinking behind Yze’s comments

    Injury Injury Report - Lalor 8-12 Prestia & Sims 3-4 Hotton 6-8 Clarke 7-10

    Not necessarily No doubt it’s super concerning but he can still potentially have a very good career Dan Menzel did 4 ACL’s early in his career but managed to finish off well and notching up 150 games

    Might come down to consistency? Baltas form as a ruck forward has always kind of fluctuated, he’s had some amazing games but also some stinkers where he is a complete non factor Compared to his backline work where the baseline is always above average to some real exceptional games Granted...

    Would of at least understood if that kid who kinda got robbed last week by Grilj got the nod who played a better game/Grilj had played much better games previously They really need to change the whole award, just make all players who meet the criteria eligible for the award without the weekly...

    Totally agree with all the points raised if we look at our un contracted players this season we have Prestia - gone Ralphsmith* Trezise* Alger - extend Clarke* Smith* Fawcett* Rioli* Lefau - extend? Broad - gone/trade Vlastuin HaysBrown - extend Retschko - extend Mansell - extend Burton -...

    Would probably give him 2-3 With the likes of Prestia and Broad hanging up the boots that experience glut is only going to widen so guys with Sonsies age/experience will be needed even more He’s shown enough this year that he can play at the level and rewarding him with some security might...

    I kind of really like his role right now with a good split between the two His defensive work has been really good over the past two weeks but still given some kick outs and a licence to help break out of d50 as an outlet

    Player Watch #45 Thomas Burton

    Hotto Lalor, Mansell Kmac2 and Ross would probably push him out if we are talking about a fully fit squad The old suspects would take mid rotations from Ross/Kmac2 forcing them to the wing/ half forward again Hotto, Lalor and Mansell would rotate between deep forward and half forward with...

    Player Watch #8 Jonty Faull

    Always seemed somewhat obvious to me as well even when watching him at VFL level Fawcett has some great skills especially his marking but he just doesn’t seem proactive enough when the balls not coming in Would of been the perfect type of player 15/20 years ago but now even the big guys can’t...

    Player Watch #22 Sam Cumming

    Haven’t taken much notice across the round as to who he might be up against Maybe Robey who had a high teens game with some clearances and goal But who knows honestly I didn’t think Grilj deserved it off last week when he has had a lot better games Can be a bit of chook lotto

    Coach Adem Yze

    Yeah, just a lot more comfortable and less robotic Seems like when he is doing the pressers he’s kinda working out what he’s going to say 1st so it seems disjointed (probably buys himself time by using the “ums” to articulate exactly what he’s going to say Behind doors not so much scrutiny if...

    Autopsy Roast & Toast v WCE/Changes For Adelaide

    **** he’s a good player when up and about Does what he wants in traffic and has the skills to back it up, unless he runs into Kmac2 of course Would love to have him if the price is right

    Coach Adem Yze

    Can’t underestimate Lynch either we have someone with the experience and body to be that on field instructor and focal point for the young players to bounce off and structure around It’s really made our front half so much more competitive

    Player Watch #3: Dion Prestia - Calf 3-4

    You are ignoring the fact we still have Lynch, Broad, Vlastuin and Prestia We needed to move the older statesmen on to provide both list and game opportunities to the kids especially when it was deemed the club was going into a scorched earth rebuild If we kept them all we would of just been...

    Player Watch #3: Dion Prestia - Calf 3-4

    Yup, it sucks right now but I prefer that we ripped the bandaid off If we kept Jack it’s not just his on field presence that probably means less games for the likes of Faull it’s also a list spot for a kid If we include Cotch that means two less from that 2024 draft crop that despite the...

    Probably just would mean non contact for the pre Xmas stint and maybe the initial weeks of the pre season proper Not a massive deal imo, if we are weighing up the extra experience he would gain playing the season out

    Player Watch #8 Jonty Faull

    Lynch is a pretty handy key forward who would be doing a mountain of work with him, Faull probably has more in common compared to Lynch in terms of skill set and competitive nature compared to Jack as well It just takes time for it to all click for key position players especially forwards that...

    Player Watch #8 Jonty Faull

    Got robbed of a really good one up the ground imo Think it was in the 2nd and he juggled one from long down the line he ended up losing control from what was some front on contact from an oppo player coming the other way Should of been a free but regardless it was great to see him pressing...

    Na fair bump mate Always happy to be proven wrong and change my viewpoint especially when it’s in the face of a positive change for the team and the player

    Maybe Yze and that pesky match committee do know a thing or two about player development

    Player Watch #21: Noah Balta

    Yeah, when Yze initially joined the club he wanted Balta in the forward/ruck but we copped injuries to Gibcus and Young so it forced him back again 2025 was a write off and looks like for stability’s sake he just kept him back to try and get him to find some form Funny how it’s gone full...
