I see him as similar to sav. Has the attributes where afl will suit his game more than vfl.

Replaces Buzza on the list. That’s got to be a win.

Does he have any mongrel? He looks seriously big. Like I’ve met Paddy and he’s big and Jenkins is bigger. He looks like he might. We need that. A bit of mongrel that is.

After watching the vid of all his 2018 goals, I think we can confidently say he is now our best KPF after Hawkins (for next year or two at least) and is about as accurate and long a kick as Hawk.
Could really add something in terms of threat and foil for TH. We do need to be careful to preserve pressure in the forward half though.
Was against this move, but coming around fast. Get him into some hoops and I’m sold.

Kreuger has to force his way in. If he can't get past Rohan and Jenkins (and Harry and Henderson for that matter) it will indicate he is not ready or not good enough.
I agree he is versatile and can play either end. All he has to do is rack up scalps or goals in the VFL. He has looked great in patches but now he needs consistency.
2020 will be his third senior season. The ball is squarely in his park.
Jenkins won't stifle him if he is good enough. JJ provides depth.

Now we have some forwards the missing link is an intelligent forward coach.
Relatively soft I think..Came up through basketball background.
And midfield coach

With all due respect, this isn't 1975.
If a CHF starts at CHF he'll be at CHB by the time he gets the ball.
In my team I have all of Hawkins, Jenkins, Rohan starting on the first line.
One or two would lead out. One stays deep.
And having said that, when you see forwards reset how often do you see two near the goal square at the same time?
My reasons for putting Steven at CHF are this.
Steven himself said he's a forward. And I want narkle to add X factor in the guts.

Corey Enright is unintelligent?

Depends how many times Hawkins gets rubbed out for doing something stupid next year!!!!
It says a lot about our coaches mentality when they put a coach who never once played as a forward in his whole career as the forward coach.

You don't get gifted AFL games, you have to earn them.
I'm sure if he improves and impresses he'll get his chance
On the flip side Enright could also provide insight into the things that challenged him as a defender. Positioning, leading, forward pressure etc.
Nothing seemed to challenge him too much

It’ll be good for the kids and even Hawks to have a new voice in the forward line

Luke Breust challenged him in the dying seconds of the 2016 qualifying final.....and won.....and lost

Krueger will be into his second year on the list. It's pure unadulterated garbage to even consider him "forcing" anything. If he gets a game or two then excellent. If not then he will continue to learn and be ready in his third year.
Fair points. But you could say the same about putting a forward as the defensive coach. He knows what challenged him but still didnt practise the art himself.
Definitely not soft, doesn’t take any crap from what Iv’e seen.

Gee l don't think so!...pretty aggressive from what l've seen.
Should hardnen up the forwardline give protection and more opportunities to the smalls. He's a big plus for them imo.

So, you agree he's unintelligent?
Would you also care to point out how he did such a terrible job this year?

A couple of things & not to be a pain, but how many of those top 10 picks actually played in a premiership though?
As you noted, Collingwood has 5 top 10 picks since 2007 but they were all taken since 2013 - so none of their top 10 picks actually played in their 2010 premiership (Sidebottom was pick 11 and highest pick since 2007 but before 2010 premiership)
And, you have Port listed twice but no Hawthorn
