[Gosaints12]

Not Mastern.

 

[Flandersss]

I can see us signing Masten as DFA. Wouldn't be the worse signing IMO.

Johnson from Port

Johnson from Port

Just looked him up, his bio looks nice, fast and evasive live wire forward. Can he play? Call the Saints and see if they'll rookie him.

 

[cooperrules]

Why they elevated joyce is just plain dumb list management.

Walker and m brown are miles ahead in ability.

****en charity.

They were obliged to as Joyce couldn't stay on the rookie list any longer

You could do worse than Mitch Brown. He's good fill in for Bruce until King can be the main man.

Your suggestion has a Dr Hook vibe about it

Walker right in, and pick Brown, Cooper let your hair hang down
Coops is talking about having Joyce walking
You're going to make me lose my mind
Walker right in, and pick Brown, Cooper let your mind roll on

Yeah I just don’t see getting fill ins as the way we go. If we use them then we see a genuine place in the team. We’ve got enough role players

If King goes down or gets tired we have zero options. We didn't want to commit to Bruce for a long time but were happy to have him for now, that says we will probably pick up a Rowe type at some point. Brown is still a very good player and young enough to give us 3 to 4 seasons. He's very mobile like Bruce and can run end to end. He's a tall utility/ forward who in April had 25 disposals, three goals and 11 marks against Brisbane and was their 3rd best player behind a 7 goal Tippa and a 35 possession game from Merrett. Also got a Brownlow vote that day. Had 23 disposals, 8 marks and 4 goals against Adelaide in Adelaide.

He was a bit of a talisman for them, when he was on they were too. I wanted him when the Bombers got him, he was playing at Sandy and looked way better than most of our listed guys. Bombers got him as a drug top up when they cheated and he was kept on ever since.

Yes he plays like Bruce and is a “good” player but Bruce isn’t good enough to get us where we want be. Like you said and I agree - sick of being sh#t.
I disagree we don’t have a forward option - Battle is your guy and a natural leader
We’ve got more KPDs than KFC has salmonella outbreaks so he’s excess to needs there especially with Howie coming in.
Anyways

I think he's a good player, thats why I want him. Battle has played a few games forward and might be a gun but he's currently a very high quality back. It's still pretty hard to see what our list management wants to achieve to be honest. I think we have a whole lot of things going in different directions and lack a bit of a clear plan sill. What we chased in the trade period is probably not where I would have put my energy but hopefully hindsight makes it look logical. Just as long as we don't end up looking like the Dees in hindsight.

Id bet we will play Battle mainly at CHF or at least start him there and see how he goes. Last year you may not have wanted him to go back because he looked so good up forward in his few games prior. A season at chb will be great development for him to be a chf. Also our backline is pretty stacked with kps and half backs. We could have a backline like:
Paton Carlilse Wilkie
Roberton Howard Webster
Depth / Rotation: Brown, Geary, Clav, Austin, Coffield, Clarke, DMak, Joyce

Agree Battle will likely play fwd in 2020

That article by Cornes you posted.
Wow.
I did not realise they traded 2018 #6 out for May.
And in the process lost access to Ben King.
Not even hindsight would suggest that’s going to be prove to be a great decision by them.

Mitch brown is way better than joyce. Thats good list management replacing delisted players with better players.

 

[Impatient Saint]

Essendon have become a career killer, not unlike us for the last 8 years. We dont need their cast offs, as Brown was lucky to get the games he played. Midfield is our greatest list need...

Mitch Brown has been playing footy all his life - won’t get better in fact will start to slow down, which isn’t as bad for a ruckman but not a forward. Joyce is young been playing for only a couple of years and for my eye improved out of sight from his first game.

 

[Johnnyrayflamingo]

Mitch Brown...FFS no.
