Only because of injuries.

God i want to strangle my router atm.

Which defenders did we have unavailable during the finals?

I honestly can't remember any to be honest. Could be wrong though.

 

[dajesmac]

Howlett was drafted 2 years ago. And who the hell is Morrow?

His name is Tom, and he has great potential.

 

[Masto]

Are you talking about Brennan? You thought he was so good you wanted to move him to the midfield. Now he is only in the side because of injury?

waters.

Funnily enough there was a player named Tom Morrow, played for Geelong.

Brennan started as Sub for the Elimination final.
Rosa went down in Rd 22 and missed both round 23 and the Elimination.
Waters went down in the Elimination and didn't play again.

 

[dajesmac]

Ah of course, how could I forget Waters.

Oh well, as I said before happy to amend my statement to best 25. Can honestly see him being more than that this time next year though.

He's clearly best 22.

?

Why were you arguing against my point then? haha.

Sorry. That "bait" wasn't for you.


I don't think Woosha believes in a best 22, so why should we? My thread regarding Brennan didn't suggest as Masto is, that I thought Brennan should somehow walk into some sort of midfield role. What I think the match committee would have done with more fit players going this years finals, hasn't got a lot to do with me partitioning some ideas for the future.

Just because i don't think he would have played finals with a full squad of players, doesn't mean i don't like him. He's far better than I thought he was when we drafted him.
I stand by the argument that we never should have traded our third rounder in the 2010's draft. Alex Fasolo or Ledger would be more than handy depth.

Tom Howlett has good similarities to adam hunter

 

[dajesmac]

Funny, I remember hearing the Cook -> West Coast talk quite a while ago. Interesting to see if it does happen. Would be pleased, but does it mean we'd have to delist another player to use #62?

He's a bit old, not sure he's the type of character we want at the club either

who`s old ? and what type of character we talking about ?

Yes jokes work better when your links work.... try it now haha

Say what you want about the drug addicts at least they made this part of the season allot more exciting...

 

[joeyavalanche]

If we don't need to lose someone of value I'd be happy to take a punt on Lucas cook.

The way i see it, he's an AA under 18 centre half forward and played for maybe the worst club at developing stars.

As an under 18 AA he'd have been taught invaluable footy knowledge in that system compared to someone else we might select with a pick in the 70s.

Big kids who've played as successful key forwards all through juniors often have a hard time competing in the afl esp when they aren't the big boy anymore.

With everything else that's going to be available at that pick I think it's a calculated risk and worth nabbing him

 

[Ian Dargie]

I don't think Woosha believes in a best 22, so why should we?

What do you mean?

I get that our best side isn't set in stone. There are probably 5-6 guys either side of the cut competing for those last few spots. But is that the same as "not believing" in a best 22?

If you asked Worsfold to pick his preferred team from a full list, do you reckon he'd be unable to do it?

 

[GrandBlue]

Trying to de-Melbournize two players at the same time? I have to say, that's pretty brave on your club's behalf.

Hopefully whatever they're carrying doesn't find its way in and fester.

 

[QS]

Yep - I don't think it will be too hard to de-Melbournise Morton, he has the skill, just needs the work ethic. Like the bloods culture thing, it just washes over you.

 

[Masto]

Tom Howlett is a rookie pick at best. Joseph Morrow is no chance. Interesting both born 1989, school mates of yours?

Why are we talking about bloods culture? Its a myth just like the Shinboner Spirit. We should be talking about Woosha culture.

This makes no sense.
On one hand you're saying they are a myth, and then it follows we should be talking about Woosha culture.. What is it to be ol' mate?
