Luke Jackson was skinny in his first year. Should have been delisted.

I like that .. they sure bore the brunt of his brilliance.
I can't see this at all.
Watch the VFL game against the Lions at the Gabba this year .He shows all the signs of a Forward ruck option at AFL level .

Bloody hell. Totally get why we passed.
Probably looked like drafting Dewey.

saw an interview with him and he was desperate to get to us. What could have been. Same draft as Dusty
Dusty, Fyfe, Arseberry, Grimes and Webberley. What a draft it could have been

I am a fan of him as a player and think he has a lot of potential to not only be one of our main rucks, but a star ruckman of the competition. He has a while to go, but I’m quite bullish.

miss jeromey. We took griff with the pick before Fyfe. FMD
If we took Fyfe we may have won a flag in 2013 and missed Lennon.

Fyfe would've kicked that goal in the 19vfl gf as well.If we took Fyfe we may have won a flag in 2013 and missed Lennon.

and we probably would have sat out the entire 2014 draft. Probably should have any way what a s**t show that was
Not so sure about that, have you seen Fyfe's goal kicking record?

Slightly better to than Georges.
Maybe Dimma wanted to loan him to the Gold Coast to get him on the Stewy Dew diet

CCJ's departure is a disappointment.
Means we have to secure Samson.
Invest in the young lad for the next four years.
Nank is only 27, has several years left.

I believe this guy will be a serious player for us in a couple of years… has ability and more importantly serious mongrel.
He is huge, has skills and he moves like a midfielder. There's nothing not to like about Samson. Mobility wise he makes CCJ look like the Statue of Liberty.
reckon samson compares pretty well to ccj first year at vfl , recall watching a game at box hill back then and nothing much caught my eye
CJ was well behind Samson in his first year. We deliberately didn't play CJ much to keep him in the gym, from memory.
yep ryan just gotta keep on improving , had a terrific first year with several multi goal games , and plenty of good marks . would like to see him get some upper body strength before next season
Big Sam is only roughly 16 months younger than Coleman-Jones. So in Ryan’s first year with us he is actually older than CCJ was in his second year, 2019, when he was decent in our VFL flag. In fact when Ryan played his first VFL game for us, he was older than Coleman-Jones was in that 2019 VFL Grand Final.
It has been reported the club is trying hard to keep Coleman-Jones and I think that is the right thing to do. Having said that I think Ryan looks a terrific prospect, but remains multiple years away from being able to compete well with AFL rucks and key position players.
