Bit of a circular conversation that you stumbled on. BJ suggesting Cuners mental capacity is lacking.What evidence do you want? Who is he that you are speaking of?
I was answering a general question about mental strength and the relationship with repeated injuries.

Yeh just a lack of speed for me. Saad and Durdin are the only genuinely quick players. (Gov too but not really a run and carry type)FB: McGovern - Weitering - Newman
HB: Docherty - Young - Saad
C: Acres - Cripps - Hollands
OB: Pittonet - Hewett - Cerra
HF: Silvagni - Curnow - Walsh
FF: Motlop - McKay - Durdin
Ruck: De Koning
Midfield: Kennedy
Defender: Williams/Cowan
Wing/Forward: Fisher
Hard to say what is missing from our best 22 that we need to become genuine contenders.
Perhaps an icing on the cake player with line breaking leg speed. In the forward half.
I'd say those 3-4 players are the last pieces to replace. Cowan and Hollands purely due to age, I think they're both going to be very good players but obviously need to continue improving and avoid any second year blues. Every chance next year they are at a level we need.FB: McGovern - Weitering - Newman

I know it’s only 3 rounds in but can someone kindly provide some commentary on the way we are trying to play (Game plan).
there would have to be a plan around how we attack and how we defend as a team.
We would have practiced this through preseason (drills) and now that we’ve had 2 preseason practice games and 3 league games what can we pick up in terms of our playing style?
im genuinely curious and it’s not something I can pick up clearly when watching our games.
and FlandersSundays watching GCS - Ainsworth and Hollands watch
Given Mot's efforts up the ground recently, I'd swap him & Fisher around. Mot's delivery has been very good, as has his efforts at the contests and he gives us a 4Qtr game.FB: McGovern - Weitering - Newman

I would love to see us invest in another HIGH pressure small forward to go with Durdin and replace Owies.
Only has to have 10 touches a game but force half a dozen turnovers a game out of defence and we are a much better side.
Ahh. No. I don't believe that's the case.Bit of a circular conversation that you stumbled on. BJ suggesting Cuners mental capacity is lacking.
Duursma looks a absolute gun, not sure how can get up high enough to draft him.I'd say those 3-4 players are the last pieces to replace. Cowan and Hollands purely due to age, I think they're both going to be very good players but obviously need to continue improving and avoid any second year blues. Every chance next year they are at a level we need.
Fisher and Silvagni don't hit the scoreboard enough and don't provide any real point of difference aside from being reliable users. Ainsworth, Gresham, Butters etc who provide the same creative ball use but have elite speed and good tanks. JSOS with a genuine 3rd goal kicking option - Ryan, Cumberland, Himmelberg, Rayner etc.
We aren't far off and theres a chance we could address both of those spots at the draft depending on how high we finish this year. Watson, Moir, Caddy, Duursma could provide instant impact in both positions but all of them are expected to go very early on.
Wont hear any argument here....I might get chased out of town for suggesting this, so apologies in advance……..
If Ginnivan can’t find his way back into the Pies team this year, is he an option to look at come years end? Kicked 40 odd goals last year, has some footy smarts about him (though not so many in public toilets)?

Good player but don't think he'd fit in with Motlop and Fisher already there. Durdin our only small fwd with real speed, I'd think we'd be looking to inject some more into that area of the ground to help us keep the ball locked in the f50.I might get chased out of town for suggesting this, so apologies in advance……..

Nate Caddy
The nephew of former Richmond forward Josh Caddy, Nate is an athletic and aggressive tall forward. Strong on the lead, Caddy is a high-leaper who is a strong aerial marking threat and a dangerous one-on-one mark. Just short of key position height at this stage, Caddy can hit the scoreboard in bunches and will be looking to spend more time pushing up through the midfield in 2023.PLAYERCARDSTART22Josh Caddy

Harley Reid
Reid displays the versatility to isolate one-on-one deep in the front half, intercept and generate meaningful rebound from defence or play through the midfield and win the ball and explode forward. A blend of Dustin Martin and Luke Hodge, Reid is the early favourite to be the first selected in next year's draft. Reid's performance for Victoria Country against Victoria Metro will remain in the minds of recruiters as one of 2022's most influential.
Jack Delean
A talented forward who made a name for himself in 2021, Delean is a small marking forward who hits the scoreboard heavily, averaging more than a goal per game in 2022 in the SANFL Under-18s. A high-leaping, strong aerial marking threat, Delean is also a talented finisher around goal and is a reliable set shot converter. He can set up teammates inside 50m with his clever work by foot and is also adept at ground level.
Zane Duursma
The younger brother of Xavier Duursma, Zane is a talented and high-leaping forward, who does his best work taking marks inside 50m. He's also a marking threat on the lead and one-on-one. A talented finisher around goal in general play who can hit the scoreboard heavily, Duursma is a reliable set shot goalkicker with a good approach. A good ground ball winner, Duursma can push up through the midfield and win first possession. He will also take on the game with his pace when given the opportunity.PLAYERCARDSTART28Xavier Duursma

Ashton Moir
A talented and dangerous forward, Moir is a match-winner who does a lot of his best work inside 50m but can also impact games through the midfield. Moir is dangerous overhead, one-on-one and aerially inside 50m. He is also strong at ground level, often making something happen. With ball in hand, it feels like he can finish from anywhere. A gifted athlete, Moir is a high leaper and possesses explosive pace and good agility.
Koltyn Tholstrup
A damaging and speedy forward who can push up through the midfield, Tholstrup takes on the game with his run and is a good kick that can find targets around the ground and inside 50m. A capable contested ball winner, Tholstrup is dangerous at ground level, a strong mark and can hit the scoreboard in bunches when playing forward.
Nick Watson
A small forward, Watson is as ready to impact games at AFL level as any prospect in the pool. Despite standing at less than 170cm, Watson plays much taller than his height and is both an overhead marking threat and dangerous at ground level. He often serves as his team's primary avenue to goal. He possesses exceptional skills and can set up teammates inside 50m for shots on goal, finishes around goal at will and converts his set shot attempts.
What's the plenty of off field baggage? Obviously the coke incident but we've obviously already got players here doing it.No to Ginnivan. Would look at him if he came free but he won’t, and arrives with plenty of off field baggage.
