Analysis The Brown Shoots Thread

[HBF]

The 4 Danihers brothers all played together in a game for the Bombers in the early 90s.

First time it happened was down at Moorabbin in the early 90's.

 

[Soapy V]

Lots to look forward to.

Cripps Weitering Docherty Curnow Plowman McKay will be stars

Others who have the potential to be at least very good are Silvagni Cuningham Graham Sumner Byrne Jaksch DVR G-Mac Boekhurst & Smith. Phillips maybe in time

Handy role players Kerridge Wright Curnow Whiley.

Good starting crop of green shoots

If we draft Ben in the future, then we would have to draft Tom. Regardless of his ability...
Can you imagine your grandfather, father and two brothers all playing for Carlton and you miss out? The poor kid would have the worst inferiority complex in history.
If Ben comes, we are morally obligated to take Tom.

Poor Trevor Chappell.

 

[Faz 2000]

Clokes? I think.

That was two brothers and a sister.

 

[Funk]

That's a very empty forward line. Pagans paddock?

Bolton's Sahara!

But the troops are massing behind those dunes!

I'm loving Weiterings attitude on the field. My only concern headed into the season was maybe that he was too boring. Very professional, a bit of a good boy without much personality. I love that he's proven me wrong. Obviously with the Riewoldt incident, but also on the weekend when Tom Lynch gave away a 50m penalty afterwards Weiters ran up and gave him a shove and some lip. Not in retaliation more of shove and "Good job mate." type of thing. Obviously shows he's much different on the field and hopefully in the locker room than in the public. Someone playing with some pride is nice to see.

Poor Trevor Chappell.

Underhand comment

 

[thylacine60]

Trevor the most famous of the lot.

 

[BlueGum]

Greenery coming along nicely

Plowman and Sumner looked good first up, and Charlie was even better 2nd game in.

Reports from Preston had good showings from KJ and SOSAJ, improvements from Clem ad JGM.

Would be good to add more this afternoon.

 

[JustaBattler]

Jones and Casboult the power forward combination one could only dream of!!

 

[Tony Lynn 15]

GREEN ****ING SHOOTS!!!!!!!!!

[Tony Lynn 15]

You called it dude!!

 

[Masqualero]

The backline looks like it might be something special in not to long from now!

 

[thylacine60]

Jones and Casboult the power forward combination one could only dream of!!

Walls/Jezza - Lloyd/Lucas - Roughy/Buddy - Levi/Jones - Paris/Carlton............pretty sure........

Walls/Jezza - Lloyd/Lucas - Roughy/Buddy - Levi/Jones - Paris/Carlton............pretty sure........

Imagine Jones actually coming back strong after missing a sitter when it mattered? Strange things happen in football.

Should be good for his confidence hopefully.

Lord knows we need a KPF kicking goals.

 

[SBYM]

The backline looks like it might be something special in not to long from now!

Crazy that it has actually conceded fewer points than seven other teams, incl. North and Adelaide.

Coming together nicely...dem goals but...

[windows]

Green shoots list:

Silvagni
Cuningham
Weitering
Curnow
Phillips
Kerridge
Cripps
Docherty
Byrne
JGM
KJ
Sumner
DVR
Plowman

Not including Graham, Boekhurst, Buckley, McKay for now. But maybe...

Not a bad list!

 

[Beer n Skittles]

From the 2015 draft:
Pick 1 Weitering - Played every game, one of the clubs most important players already
2 Schache - Played every game, looks good
3 Mills - Played every game, important player already
4 Oliver - Ditto
5 Parish - Ditto

It seems like there's far more than usual first year draftees stepping up this year. Maybe it was a shallow draft, but the first round is looking very strong and we had four picks in it.

A small green shoot for the future... reminds me of someone
