Regardless who we take, remember in the great wise words of Richo, “going young will be a disaster”.

Alan Richardson "We need to go older"

Where's Russell Robertson Neita and The Ox at. Get Shane Woewoedin back to play with his son. Stephen Tingay, The Febey's, Marcus Seecamp.

I guess the good thing is we are all getting older every day hey Richo

I like this. Richo is clearly concerned about the philosophical implications of discovering the fountain of youth.

Or eating fruit from the Tree of Knowledge.

 

[Topkent]

If we target an inside mid ill fly home just to glass goody myself

 

[Topkent]

I like the player but that McAdam trade just looks horrific now.

I mean the idea was OK if only his body held up and wasn't made of cellophane.

 

[Topkent]

Hawthorn have one tall forward who kicked over 30 and it's Chol who's just an athletic tall that does nothing Fristch couldn't do. The stupidity of play 3 talls and Fristch and then seeing people talk about us drafting or trading for another key forward. It's like we are a years behind the best teams forward set ups.

 

[Deelighted]

Pick 5 for Houston given where we're at would be bad enough as is, but with tassie on the horizon it's insanity.

 

[MarcMaverick]

We need to be sellers not buyers this trade/FA period.

 

[I Love Lamb]

Hoping Salem requests a trade. Sparrow also, would bundle him up with ANB for Rachele.

 

[Topkent]

Saw something very interesting on first crack, since the AFL changed the rules around tackles the average time it takes for an ump to throw the ball up from a stoppage has gone from 13s to about 6s

It means teams can't just crowd stoppages anymore and have that game style be successful aka Melbourne Freo and Carlton. Meanwhile sides that rely on speed like Hawthorn are dominating

That's true but on the flip side the Dogs have three genuine gun KPfs, Swans play three talls too. Blues with no injuries also.

I totally agree with your point that a KPf/s are no use at all if we don't fix our ball movement issues.

They wouldn't trade one of their forwards for the 3 of ours, swans tall forwards don't win them games their midfield do and neither the swans or dogs play 2 defenders forward and send their best forward kick chasing up the ground.

So what you're saying we would be going for our fourth flag this year if it wasn't for the CFL and Steven Shocking changing the rules to target us specifically

[Bluelegs]

Surely he picks Collingwood over us.

This is without doubt exactly what I was saying

 

[Topkent]

How amazing would it be that we signed up Gawn and Viney for 7 years just to go out and spend the money on Tom Lynch

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

IF Melbourne get Tom Lynch and Max King

Multiple players found. Use birthday to differentiate. eg [PLAYERCARD="23/11/1962"]Joe Smith[/PLAYERCARD]

THEN who cares about the midfield, gameplan and culture? Problems are solved.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Tim Lamb with pick 5...

 

[MarcMaverick]

Tom Lynch, Max King

, 2MP are gonna solve our ball movement for sure .

 

[MarcMaverick]

Need to be stockpiling picks like Richmond have done. If we get some talent, via FA, at the 23-27 year-old age range that's a bonus. We have too many over-30s and the youth aren't there or being given enough exposure.

Need to get rid of Spargo, Bowey, Sparrow, Salem, Hunter, Oliver etc... and restock. All of them have peaked and are showing massive regression.

 

[Crusty Demon]

I'm actually more nervous having a higher draft pick with Lamb as our list manager.

Stinga was just about my favourite player ever, so I'm 100% in for this.
