You've already played Fog in defence in the SANFL and he's been injured a little
In all seriousness, there's only enough room in your forward line for either Fog or Tex. Frampton a must as he competes & gives a decent ruck chopout.

Agreed to him starting in the SANFL but I don't agree we are hanging him out to dry. We have given him heaps of chances and he has never showed more than the odd glimmer. Needs to now earn a spot and stop making excuses for his performances. First it was Godden, then his role, now what?

Who rucks when ROB needs a minute or two breather? Surely not Himmelberg on today's effort. You could do a Dogs or Tigers & mix Tom Lynch through there around the ground, but you probably needed to have experimented with that already. Tilthorpe I spose.

I mean "hanging him out to dry" by continually playing him. It's at the stage where it's harming any development he might get because he can't get involved.
You can kill a players career by picking them when they don't deserve to be there.
Go back to the SANFL and dominate for a month.

Berg has credits in the bank after last year.

He sooked it up today because he was in the twos, let's be honest and when he went into the ruck was non-competitive.
Frampton is your guy.

Berg is far more talented than Frampton.

It will be Thilthorpe eventually, but I reckon we'll try to keep him out of the ruck this season.

Average first half, got better as the game went on.
Doesn't have that confidence back yet but it'll come

I think Fogarty is more talented than all your forwards, it's just how he's been developed and the room you have for a player of similar ilk, like Tex.
If anyone gets to heyday Tex, it's Fog.

Reckon Thilthorpe is our best potential forward... but yes, it's questionable whether Tex & Fog can co-exist.

I reckon Tilthorpe can be Simon Madden.

Far more mobile than Madden & likely to play more forward than in ruck.

LOL, "I want a rebuild where we win every game"
All I want is a rebuild that has direction and is consistent in its approach

Was disappointed ROB was not in the leadership group. Not really sure why Lynch is in their as well tbh. Has a lot of wraps on him about how great a club man he is but just doesn't deliver onfield where it matters most. Has taken over the Andy Otten role.I burped up some vomit when I listened to that AFC video this morning.
we go in unchanged in the leadership department after coming last. That’s draft tampering.

I reckon he can be Paul Salmon but clean beneath his knees. That's my hope anyways

That's a fair assessment.
Was not around in Madden's time, is he the benchmark for a very tall forward with those skills?....Or maybe Salmon looking at later posts.

Simon Madden was known more for his ruckwork than a forward... so not the best comparison.

More of a ruck than Tilly, but if we get a career like his out of RT we'll be winning flags.
