Analysis 2019 List Management Discussion II

[Kramer1]

We finished 5 games out of finals let alone being serious contenders, coupled with our young talent still being quite green would indicate that we're not.

I dunno. Tough run with injuries, lost plenty of tight ones, two of our best didn't fire a shot all year, eyeing off 2 quality inclusions, perhaps more, number of young players approaching physical maturity, another pre season under Russel, a full pre-season for Teague to implement his game plan...

I don't think we should limit just how quickly we can overtake a number of teams.

 

[Arr0w]

Or two? Why not? Still have him ahead of Butler in any case.

Short term views, no wonder SOS is against it

 

[Blues_Man]

Because we won't be challenging for a flag next year ..Butler is younger

 

[Dravid's in]

OK, OK....So It wasn't my idea.

It may not come about, but it does make sense.

All good Harks.

Posted that as an endorsement of your idea, considering that carlton09 gave the idea of Martin off HB the thumbs up and has had some good info in the past.

 

[Blubagger71]

I certainly don't see Martin playing off half back. I also am far from bullish about Docherty's return. He wont have played for more than two years. Far from convinced he will be anything like he was previously.

Doc will be fine. I'm tipping a slowing start, a few 17 - 20 possession games then slowly elevate through the next 5 or 6 rounds. By midseason break, he will be a 20+ possession lock while significantly improving our effective inside 50 numbers as either the hit up or creating opportunities. 30% of time on ball by midseason.

Jack Martin is going to play midfield with rests at half forward. If you have a Rolls Royce you drive it along the boulevard, not on the country roads.

Glass overflowing type of person

I personally think he's done, very few come back.

I guess we will see next year. I'll continue to back him in. He will want to repay a perceived debt.

 

[HavUEvaSeenTheRain]

Doc will be bloody good for us next season if injury allows plus he will have had 18months? recovery time. He won’t lose his smarts and plays a role where you don’t have to contest or run hard to find a lot of the ball. I think it’s something like three quarters of his possessions are uncontested. It would have to be the easiest role to come back and play if you are a smart footballer, which Doc is.

the two that didn't fire a shot - 2, 10, 25?

 

[Kramer1]

Doc and Williamson

 

[thylacine60]

nah, serious? not fire a shot means didn't deliver through poor performances...…….....…….

 

[Kramer1]

Maybe in your bizarro world.

I mean didn't make the starting line. Didn't receive a certificate of participation. Didn't fire a shot.

[ItsAllAboutMe]

Petrucelle is out of contract, is Victorian and with an Italian name like that is a good chance he grew up a blue bagger..

Unfortunately I think this is closest to reality. Hopefully we are wrong...

 

[Robbo's my hero]

News of my death has been greatly exaggerated.

Alex Johnson returned from his 6th reco with the Northern Blues and completed the season strongly. Let's not write Doc off just yet.

The old... you don’t use a Rolls Royce to plow a field..

Buggered if I know. This was my first reaction the first time I heard it

That was pleasing to come about (and the rumours of us drafting him..?) but sometimes it’s the level up that’s the crippler.

Ever the optimism aren’t we

 

[Revenant1965]

Hi. Just trying to understand where we may be at... If we get Papley, Martin and Butler, would there still be enough draft currency to do another meaningful trade... Also, would someone like a Tom Cutler still be on the radar...
