Non-Lions discussion 2022

[pulpdriver]

Yeah, Lobb and Liam Jones off to the Bulldogs.

They will be very beneficial acquisitions for the Dogs.

 

[luthor]

Dogs only winning the frees 8-7 at half time.

Bulldogs fans apoplectic

If Jones is close to what he was like in his last season at Carlton, he'll be a big addition to their team. Decent upgrade on Keefe, Cordy and Gardiner. Lobb should be a handy upgrade on Bruce who's struggling come off the ACL.

Dogs will bounce back next year you'd think.

Going to be an interesting draft with Melbourne, GWS and Gold Coast potentially holding half of the first round picks. And Sydney already hold two as well.

Don't understand this, GWS and Gold Coast only have one pick each in their first round and Melbourne's first pick is not until pick 34 on current ladder as per Lore Provisional 2022 AFL Draft Picks.

Suns get another 1st rounder for Rankine, GWS get 1 or 2 for the likes of Taranto and Hopper. Demons should get at least 1 for Jackson.

There's a lot of "gunna" in that though.

 

[pulpdriver]

That's a great goal from O'Driscoll. Speed around the middle so deadly.

 

[a mayes ing]

Freo have some really good young players. O'Driscoss, Serong, Brayshaw, Frederick just to name a few

And the skills to match

GWS potentially getting some combination of first round picks for Taranto, Hopper, and Bruhn. GC getting ours (potentially) plus Rankine.

And Melbourne likely to get multiple firsts from Freo, who will likely get one from the Bulldogs for Lobb.

O’Driscoll was the player a few of us liked at one of our late firsts in the 2020 draft, which we traded to Melbourne.

Big, inside mid, with power and speed, who can spread as well.

 

[pulpdriver]

Hasn't hit the scoreboard much but he would've liked but Logue's had a solid game as a forward today.

Crumbled under any sort of pressure today. Had a few shocking moments

 

[FLVanLandingham]

saints completely.....nothing.

lucky the cats have missed some easy shots

 

[pulpdriver]

Bolton is such a high impact player. Really wish we had a fit Starce last Sunday.

 

[AFLQLD]

Bolton is the most dangerous player in the game. In terms of ability to turn opportunity into scores, I would have him ahead of anyone else by a decent margin at present.

Dev's mate too. That was an added attraction getting him in that draft but they both looked the same player so it didn't make any sense getting him.

 

[JasRulz63]

Has a score involvement 44% of the time he disposals the ball which is impactful when he's getting it 18 times per game.

I remember pre-draft he was known as a potential flight risk (WA kid), and so that might have made a few teams wary of going after him. Could have gone higher otherwise. Very dangerous when inform

 

[luthor]

Just watching the Geelong /Saints game.

IMO, Hawkins is the most protected species in the AFL.

He blatantly pushes and shoves and it's play on.

He gets the slightest nudge and it's his free kick.

It's pretty funny watching Geelong supporters clamouring to defend him at even the hint that he gets away with anything. Very sensitive bunch they are.

 

[FLVanLandingham]

i just can't stand his stupid oily arms.

a side note, so many more head clutching in the last 2-3 years. that dalhaus one was a free kick, but he clutched his head so dramatically, then got up so quickly when the whistle was called. I guess they're just making sure the ump sees it.... I see our players do it too so oh well.

if it ends up stopping so many head knocks I guess its good

I never got that. How can oiling of the arms and shoulders be legal? The AFL are doing all this education and rules around head protection but that allow a player to have a substance that will encourage head high contact.

Wish we listened to briztoon and drafted Bolton instead of Cox
