He'll probably nominate for the pre season draft

Gold Coast hold the first two picks in the PSD as well.

Wonder why ‘innocuous’ is in quotation marks

Aish officially a Docker.

Karma is a bitch Jimmy.

Brisbane - tick
Melbourne - tick
Perth - tick

I hope he stops over at Sydney somehow on a 2 year deal before making his way to Adelaide.

Before finishing his career in Tassie in 2026.

Lol, that'd be gold. Finishing his career at Norf.

They'll be happy - it'll be the first time they've landed a target!

Anyone think that Jenkins is going to be a steal for Geelong? Just got this feeling he’s going to explode and dominate next year.

I don't, he needs a dominant midfield.

They had a great start to the season and part of that was their goal kicking accuracy was up there with the best teams ever (around 60%). The midfield wasn't looking like top 4 material over the last two months of the season. Selwood and Ablett are looking like they're capable of a few great games per year and losing Kelly changes a lot.. Losing Kelly would be similar to us losing Robbo or Mcluggage.

He’ll kick plenty of goals but won’t dominate. That’s never been his style

Or Neale or Zorko.

Well, it was reported he did it in Western Australia on Monday prior to the trade period ending...put it down to the Bell tolls...

 

[morsie]

Reading an article on Shaun Grigg going to the Cats and am, the intellectual property he is taking.He specifically mentioned Craig Mc Rae as preparing his VFL players to step seamlessly into the firsts when needed.
Have we ever tried to get him back to Brisbane?Do people think he would be a great acquisition?

Whilst adding 4 more top 20 draft picks this year including picks 1 and 2 to their existing young core of Bowes, Ainsworth, Ballard, King, Rankine and Lukosius, the Suns will also have the ability to pre select Alex Davies though their academy and Darwin product Joel Jeffrey before next years draft in which they'll likely have another top 2 selection. Come 2021 the Suns are going to be just as flushed with young talent as they were when they first entered the league.

Note Davies and Jeffrey are rated at this early stage as top prospects among next years crop. Having watched Davies play I could see him being a top 10 pick. Jeffrey has huge praise and having just watched some of his highlights as a 16 year old in the NTFL I have to say he has all the tools to be a star(Height, pace and skills). I think the Suns might actually get it right this time. Stuart Dew is going to have a lot of talent to work with.

True but development could be a big issue with them. Do they hae the coaches to get the best out of them...

Will have to wait and see but I think they've made in roads in this area and have definitely put in work to improve the off field infrastructure.

They'll get the best from the talent if the talent stays.

Retention has been more of a problem for them than development in my view.

Yep, not much point getting them in the front door if the back door's wide open.

I would like to keep the back door shut.............Tight!
