He wouldn’t be the first player to struggle in there first year as a stand alone captain and I dare say he won’t be the last, he will be fine next year.

I've not seen any of Sholl that I can recall, so I had a look and his stats aren't too impressive.

If I could have any player from gws it would 100% be Toby Greene one of the most influential players in the comp
For us? Hard to argue.
These sorts of players make a difference on multiple fronts.
We can look at stats alone but the Greene and Papley types add something that many others don't have......and when I see Butlers name get put against Papleys....well....best not say.
We don't need seagulls. Impact players only, thank you Austin and co

Brother's a bit injury prone
Dow is 20 years old ffs most of the up and coming mids, like Setters, are 22 before they are playing consistent AFL footy and 24 before becoming really good players, another pre season of hard work on his running and running patterns and a simplification of his core responsibilities and we will see a 21 year old Dow that could well be ahead of the curve, and before people mention Cerra and Brayshaw we will see where they are at compared to Dow at the end of next year after an injury free pre season and a good run into next year.
If I could take anyone from them for our team it would be Whitfield all day long and twice on Sunday, he is exactly what we need.
Spot on, we’ve worked to hard to build our list to throw in a bad apple now, disaster waiting to happen.
Yep we are past the need for a Brodie and there are much better options around than 2MP, Ladhams for one who is stuck behind Lycett who just signed a 5 year deal.I can see the logic in 2MP. Would be a good replacement for Casboult.
Not sure about Brodie despite his talent. He'd be playing the same role as Cripps and Setterfield. We've also got Kemp, Stocker, Dow and Kennedy who aren't getting regular games too.
Outside run should be the priority IMO

So that Kouta guy not much chop two years in the rezzies and only 14 games in the seniors by 20 yo
let’s cut him
Not a chance in hell Carlton goes anywhere near DeGoey one of our biggest platforms is Carlton Respects so yeah no chance, does he have talent?absolutely he has heaps and could be up there as one of the best at what he does, but he is Collingwood material enough said.

Plenty of top 10’s haven’t cut the mustard. Not saying Dow won’t yet but he’ll need to show substantial improvement whether he’s 20 years old or not next year, we won’t keep him on the list until he’s 22 or 23 if he doesn’t find another gear or show he’s capable of it
This is a point I’ve made several times in the past, our rebuild wasn’t just our list but our whole club from boot studder to CEO, the point being our development program has been rebuilt during this time as well and is only now, that we have gotten Power and O’Keefe, that we are really concentrating on development and that we will really start to see the results that more experienced clubs get from there young players, people need to remember this when judging our results up until now, you don’t become a greAt club overnight it takes time and patience to get the right people in the right positions before you can get the results we want.
Which is exactly what I’m counting on, would happily give you our second rounder for him or try to upgrade it if necessary as he has all the attributes we need probably more so than anyone, as I said in my earlier post I believe he is a hybrid between Ed and Murphy with all of Ed’s defensive capabilities and the potential and ability to be an offensive weapon as well like Murphy, therefore he fits 2 long term needs for us in the one player which in my mind makes him what should be our no 1 priority.

Ladhams isn't behind Lycett. He was playing seniors and playing very well, then decided to host a house party despite Covid restrictions and copped a 5(?) game suspension.
His games this year have been very good and his disposal by foot is exceptional, also have followed his development at Adelaide because I liked him for us in ‘18 and he is the son of an ex player, has a reputation as being a really hard worker that does all the extras he can to get better, just a really good young kid with attributes that are what we need, have a look at him this weekend when we play Adelaide he’s a ripper. People at Adelaide reckon he could be the best kick ever and that’s people that knew one DJarman. Has just shown glimpses of what he could be at this stage but I like him.I've not seen any of Sholl that I can recall, so I had a look and his stats aren't too impressive.

They’ve actually been playing both but with Lycett as the no1 ruck and Ladhams playing more forward, Lycett is there first choice ruckman and as I said they gave him a 5 year deal, been rumblings about Ladhams being possibly gettable.
Sure I can agree on that...dow could still become a gun mid so its a risk trading him.
If we get papley it will get done with draft picks as most trades do eg kelly, gibbs, shiel, neale, treloar etc

Fair call. I don't see it though. He's getting a game at a premiership fancy, and you'd think they'd be keen to implement a gradual transition from Lycett to Ladhams, especially given both are passable second forwards.

That the prevailing justification for keeping Dow is him being 20, rather than demonstrated form, says a lot.
In 3 years I cannot recall an instance of Dow using his burst of speed to chase down and tackle the opposition. There is no excuse, age or otherwise, for there not to be numerous examples. That is why I'm confident Dow is not worth holding onto, irrespective of him being able to carve out a career.
