Player Watch Josh Rachele - Re-Signed to End of 2029

[Mr_Moogle]

Lets not forget the way Duursma taunted Lynch before HT.

Led to Lynch kicking the first goal in the second half.

Lol. What a stupid bitch.

 

[George Kramer]

I think he us way iover-rated

He cost port that final against WCE when he dropped a sitter chest mark in the F50 under little to no pressure

He may be overrated but bringing up an error in a big final in your first year of footy isn’t proof.

However - Draft stock does not mean diddly squat. It is important. It always has been and always will be.

this is true

one of the reasons it’s true is that the people who select someone high have a lot of skin in the game. They are invested in it coming off and in some cases their own job is at stake

 

[ams4crows]

Those guns on an 18 year old! He looks excellent, doesn't look like a small forward looks like he could actually be that elite mid we so desperately need

 

[Mr_Moogle]

We must be spoilt as a supporter group when people don't want someone with speed, elite kicking and goal sense

Its odd given how crap our small forwards are.

 

[Pick4To6]

Injury free pre season, this kid plays round 1.

Could be anything. We have a very good young player.

 

[adelaidecrows]

I hate to post early predictions but damn, this kid is already cut. Round 1 without a doubt.

Surely a lock for round 1

Wooooaaahhhhh boy

 

[spenze]

I like how people are saying this guy is a lock for round 1...

James ******* let me have a breather Rowe and Lachie Scattergun Murphy are his opposition...as long as he isn't in rehab for a knee injury he will be a shoe-in round 1

 

[spenze]

In saying that, think he'll be a fan favourite

 

[Clayton Lamb]

But did he get caught ??

Rachele thinks so!

 

[GROTTO]

Rachele thinks so!

They are impressive guns for an 18 year old kid.

Wouldn't surprise if they (and us) improve up the ladder - they got their man this year and wont have to fox it next year. Some put an asterisk against the last two ∀FL seasons due to covid - I'd put an asterisk against the last two Crows and North seasons due to "rebuilding"

Sure thing.

 

[1970crow]

Never underestimate the year of a contract renewal!!! Watch him this year and we can talk tough as much as you want. Port will just pay and get the player they want. He is worth a mid first rounder

Problem is, as Roos found out, that the contract year uplift from career cruisers is fool's gold. We even saw this with Gibbs at Carlton and then the 2 years that we were after him.

 

[1970crow]

Odd hill to die on considering your badgering for Fischer McAsey to be gifted a Rd 1 spot, who himself is a reserves footballer in the fourth worst side in the AFL.

To be fair to Kristof, I haven't seen him say he'd pay a first rounder to get Fish to us.

 

[1970crow]

Brownlow confirmed.

I saw him in the Intercol, he killed it. I wanted him after that.

Bit young for you, but good news is as you get older the age gap thing becomes less a societal no no. Just hold your horses for a few years.

 

[1970crow]

I’m thinking Pies

hawks won’t be far away , GC if they fall away

it’s not impossible for us to have a worse season than 2021 , it’s more a chance than people think even though I think not

I don't see any of Suns, Pies, us, hawks and Roos leaving the bottom 5. Us and suns have home ground advantage every second week, so I reckon we're unlikely to finish bottom 2. But outside of that, picking the order is a crap shoot. I can see us going backwards on wins but with a better %.

 

[1970crow]

Charlie Cameron also had X factor. Unfortunately he didn't want to display it here.

Wasn't his designated role.

 

[1970crow]

Last thing you need in a forward line is someone with goal sense and a burst of speed...

Make a good defensive forward with those traits.

 

[1970crow]

But did he get caught ??

What I like is he's still looking for an option whist under pressure. Plenty of time left before needing to indiscriminately release the ball. We've been infested with the mindset that the ball must be released before an opponent lays a finger.

Edit - and his rig of course, looks a unit.

 

[UcantCme]

He may be overrated but bringing up an error in a big final in your first year of footy isn’t proof.

Maybe its because the kid talks a bug game by his arrogant port like on-field actions

Acting that way even in your rookie year will naturally draw critics especially when you choke on doing the simple footy fundamentals under no pressure

If he is happy to pull out the bow and arrow, im happy to do the same and right back at him.....

Nearly as much as he can curl?

I can definitely see at least one side leaving the bottom 5 as there are some pretty vulnerable sides in the league at the moment. Carlton, Saints, Eagles, Geelong, Richmond, Port and even the Dogs could genuinely freefall next year. Stalled teams, old teams and multiple finalists who were on the recieving end of potentially squad destroying losses in the last final series.
