Be in the top 5 kicks in the comp.
It's not irrelevant at all. As great as jackson is, he's not a natural forward so you cant go and call him a forward (same as Melbourne are realizing as mobile as Grundy is, you cant just push him forward - same as Nic Nat was never a forward. Doesnt mean he wont kick goals, but there's a big difference between natural forwards and mobile types who can push forward. It's the same reason that Fyfe has never and will never work up forward. Jackson is a great hybrid player - but i think he's proving he's better in the ruck pushing forward. The same thing happened at Melbourne. Last year Melbourne started playing Gawn forward and giving the ruck duties to Jackson, as they realised Jackson wasnt as dominant up forward - but by playing Gawn forward so much, they robbed themselves of an AA ruckman. Same has happened this year at Melbourne.
And Blicavs was an unmatched athlete in running ability and his ability to run the length of the ground - a back who suddenly gave an option up forward.
I know we still see him as a big part of our future. He’s also had multiple injuries. Never really got going.The “people that matter” then proceeded to give Brodie a 3 year extension in April about 3 or 4 games into the season.
He’s barely been sighted at AFL level since.
If they were not happy with this application and defensive running during the preseason - what hand him a big contract extension a couple of weeks into the season?
Your ITK knowledge is excellent so I’m not doubting you for a second.
Who could have guessed that giving a player with workrate issues a long term contract extension would send him back to the comfort zone.
Glad to hear that the club still have faith in him, he was a massive part of our season last year.
I don't think there's anyone of need that we need to go after though, I'd rather we focus our attention on further developing the players that we already have.Id just love us to actually be heavily linked to someone after the season we have had
He wants a game each week
We thought this last year and here we are in the bottom 5
We need two high quality wings with speed roaming up and down Optus.
I thought you were insulting our young forward line, I think Sturt will get to Fritch level and I thing Amiss and Treacy will be alot better than the 2 fwds you quoted. Our Forward line in the future is looking pretty bloody good.
Not really well covered considering how injury prone Darcy is.
Ohhh shiz. Yes 5 haaha
s**t happens, sometimes there's a back step, just means we have to move forward to next year. Not much you can do about it.
