Watched the Carlton Aflw match vs Gold Coast and Matthew lappin commentating. "If you over coach certain players they stop playing on instinct" I thought it was a statement that applys directly to our performances so far this year and maybe a hangover from the Bolton days while we were devolving a young and talented list.
 
I have a feeling Parks could be Jones's replacement in future.
I see Parks as someone who might be able to pinch hit as a KPD, but overall lacks the reach and ability to be in the same postcode as Jones' game style.

Probably more of a blend between Weitering and Docherty, really.

EDIt:

Gulden & Campbell leading possession winners for SS. Elite kicks. 1st year players (Academy learnings).
Campbell should have bid on even earlier. Very complete, very athletic midfielder.

Harf has girls well drilled. Keeps it simple
 
But Box Hill...
Geelong was leading the race with this initially but Richmond have taken it to another level.
The stand alone argument completely overlooks the fact that Carlton had the keys to the NBs and opted to to invest very little in them.
If this attitude remains, the move will amount to a marketing ploy & very little else - hopefully the penny has finally dropped that a strong development pathway will often result in a strong senior side.

Surely the Swans cannot keep all of their gun kids on their books. Would love us to pinch Ollie Florent, What is his contract status ?

Thought he re-signed recently. 2022
Will Hayward 2024 but can’t get a look in so far this year.
Really like the look of Gulden. Tough HFF/midfielder with an accurate left kick. Dominator.
 
The club seems very harmonious but missing the winning attitude or desire (sans Sam Walsh)
Where is our development more so? High end picks should be more damaging by now. Bar #1’s, we’re lacking.

Interestingly enough I remember commenting on Sam in his first year how he seemed to quite often be having a go at his team-mates for not passing or turning it over etc etc.

I can't recall what I thought at the time, probably said he was being a brat. I haven't really seen any of that from him at all this or last season. I think I miss it. I think we need it sometimes.

Kozzy Pickett. Of course, he’s still on the draft board when it’s our pick in 2019 (Pick #10).
Naturally, we overlook and decide to drop down the order to #18 and pick the kid with an ACL...

I say this slightly tongue in cheek as I’m a good wrap on Kemp but imagine having Pickett in our forward line applying pressure like he is tonight against the Saints.

Fck me.
