No he won’t ever be a midfielder. But I’d like to see him attend the centre bounce and then push forward like Stringer. Then a high half forward can take his place and push into the midfield in general play.

Surely if/Collingwood trade out their 2021 1st they will want 2021 (later) picks back. They still need the draft picks in that draft to get Daicos, they just don’t want top picks swallowed up.

Thilthorpe ended up playing most of the season in ruck which he isn’t ideally a primary ruckman.

What did you write to Fages?

What do you mean they’re still in discussions?

I don’t quite get it. Do you mean you’ve heard he doesn’t want to stay or does?

Riley Knight?

Butts?

You’re going to be so wrong. He has all the qualities to be an elite mid and the few games he has been trialled there he has killed it. I can see him winning a Brownlow one day.

What’s the 10 points?

I can’t imagine Hawthorn offered Frawley $800k+.

Ricciuto’s role is a volunteer position. No way would Hodge join our board to be a director of football for the love. That’s why all board members are crows supporters. They give their time for the love of the game, they don’t get paid.

I don’t want to see Poholke again at afl level and I hope he isn’t on the list next year. I watch all the sanfl games too. He is too slow by physically and mentally for afl level. He is a good sanfl player because the game is slower, but unlike other slow players, he is a slow decision maker too.

We should. He played well. Kelly should make way for Talia. Butts and Hartigan are both mobile and pretty quick for their size.

I reckon Poulter will go before pick 20. His physical attributes being a 190cm mid would make him more appealing. I can see Powell going a bit later than him because he is 180cm.

It’s so typical for Adelaide to prefer the smaller, hardworking, vanilla, accumulating mid (Phillips) over a taller mid who has x-factor and go forward and be a real threat too (Hollands). We need to go for the higher potential guy imo. Look at Bont & Oliver in their draft years. Both clubs...

Of course. AFC hate speed and x-factor. They much prefer the slow accumulator with sub-standard skills but will apply themselves.

How is that in anyway relevant?

No way. Graham has at least proven himself on the biggest stage which even our best players were incapable of doing in 2017. Graham in his 5th game destroyed Sloane and on top of that kicked 3 goals himself on the biggest stage. I’m far from all in on Graham, but if you’re comparing him to...

In that case Geelong will have to weigh up what is a bigger cost overall to them. 1) paying Brad enough $$$ that would give us band 1 compo so they get him for nothing but have to pay more $$$. 2) pay a bit less $$$ but AFC force a trade and they have to give up pick 11. So would they rather...

I also think it’s specific to Sholl though. It is the one chink in his armour. He is very similar to Atkins in that regard and I’ve heard him say a couple of times that it’s his area of improvement.

Let me guess, Damian Barret?

Ok great Port will be the type to go after Rankine’s sister’s boyfriend. They are much more strategic with that sort of stuff than us.

Fogarty is not 194cm. I’m sure you saw it somewhere but I just don’t believe it. I’ve seen him listed as 192 & 193 in other places too. And I’ve seen him multiple times alongside Tex and he looks a touch shorter. Plus he has midfield qualities of course he could play as a 3rd tall. He is much...

Newchurch highlights.

Good 5 min package of Newchurch.

They have been doing that.

If anything he was better in the 2nd half. He helped get the ball going our way. He was definitely one of our better mids. I was really disappointed in Wilson & Poholke. Whilst I don’t see them as afl starters, I expected much more from them at this level (basically Port’s sanfl side). The...

I think this is more about method and guys playing well below their best than the actual personnel out there.

No loss. Should never have been a 1st rounder. His value was always a 2nd rounder by most draft followers. AFC seemed to rate him higher than most.
