[Geoffa32]

Love the look of Gollant. Lynch out Gollant in.

Cook on the wing for DMack.

Am I wrong in saying Strachan just seems like a better option than ROB…

better tap ruck, better kick and better awareness of his team mates and surroundings..

Be careful of rating any performances this week. Even poor players can look a million bucks when you're belting an opposition.

Good:
Laird and Keays - capped off strong seasons with a dominant performance, 16 clearances and 78 disposals between them
Strachan - Putting us in a good predicament, hitouts to advantage were huge
McAdam - Goty nom coming up but played his best overall game for the season
Butts - Just keeps building, capping of a stellar season
Schoenberg - Has a huge bag of tricks, our most skillful mid by far
Neddy - Kicks straighter at goal and hed just about bog
Cook - Going to be a star

Special mention:
Mackay - Love him or loathe him, he's got the best out of himself on and off the field. Nice to gift him a goal and send him out a winner, all the best Dmac
Lynch - Has had a defining role in our club since 2015, elite at what he did and who could forget the 10 goal game, Thanks Lynchy

Who is missing from our team that should be playing in R1?

Milera? ROB?

Tough to say, so much can change in a pre-season. Sholl, Berry, Pedlar probably in the mix too

Lol who are you guys to call another team awful

Not even Tassie wants you!

Good
Laird, Keays, Sloane, Doedee, Schoenberg.
The young blokes.
Butts, Jones, Cook, McHenry, Strachan. Gollant, McAdam.
The forward line looks a much better structure with Cook and Gollant in it. Why not earlier?

Bad
Murphy. Not AFL standard.
Frampton at times.
Thilthorpe gets pass as he is young and had a better last quarter.
Our lack of a decent small forward.

Ugly
The season. Onwards and upwards.

Some will whine about dropping a couple spots in the draft, but in a year when there's a clear top 3 who we weren't getting then you can throw a blanket over the next 10, who gives a *?

You can't buy a team building win like that one. Lets all the young guys head into the preseason with a lot of positive energy.

The Mackay banana in the pocket would have been legendary.

Then it hit the post.

Just thought I was missing someone obvious that should be in R1 to improve us even further.

Sholl and Berry will be good inclusions too.

Clearly we’re experts

he was pretty good against Gawn last week too though..

 

[Scorpus]

Cook looks like a draft steal, no wonder we live traded up to get him

Good: Some nice moments for Lynch and D-Mac at the end.

Bad: Talia missing out

Ugly: The general standard of the match. Pretty bleak.

 

[Sanders]

Of course we won.

yay winning culture. Yay

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

McHenry with a lazy 13 score involvements from 24 touches

Just realised he's still eligible for a RS nom. He did more than enough to get one.

Once he bulks up a bit (not too much) he will be a gem.

Love seeing how excited Thilthorpe is seeing other players succeed. Captain material

 

[Rags_118]

better tap ruck, better kick and better awareness of his team mates and surroundings..

Doesn’t seem to have as a contested pack mark, which of course is where ROB excels.

I‘d be looking for an upgrade on both of them over the next 2-3 years..

 

[Redleg Crow]

Keays and Shoenberg's best ever on the AFL rating

 

[Mutineer]

Luke Brown

He'll need to get back to his very best or he might struggle to keep the youngsters out.

 

[footy4ever]

Good

The win

To see Jones developing into the footballer worthy of the draft pick number.

Strachan. Can we play with two ruckman because would love to see him get more games.

Ned

The fitting send offs.


Bad

the win.

ROB was our best and fairest last year…bit early to write him off I think. Strachan reminds me of Rehn though. I’m glad he get a couple of games this year.

 

[Redleg Crow]

Should ditch this thread and just go to a GBU 2021 thread

 

[BACCS]

Keays with the lazy 38 touches, 84% DE, 2 goals, 2 goal assists, 10 score involvements, 6 clearances and 10 inside 50s. Anyone that says he can’t be best 22 in a contending team can get stuffed, he has been very good this year.
