I’ve swung on many players with our first pick in the upcoming draft. I’m settling on Sam Gayfer if he is still there. He models his game on a combination of Curnow & Tracey. Big strong competitive key forward who I believe will chase & tackle. We badly lack this in the side
@stuvaiC@1116sen@SENBreakfast Said to this my dad. I was sick of the 6 day into 5 day breaks on the back of interstate trips. Start winning and playing good football then the prime time games will come at the back end. Consistent weekend football is fine
1. Sam McClure
2. Kane Cornes
3. Carlton

5. The 82000 weekly shows that say the same thing.
6. JRiewoldt hosting anything
7. Off-fence and Dee-fence
8. Sydney not wearing white shorts for away matches.
9. People using stats without context

@1116sen@kanecornes We could play our gather round game around the Football Park housing development for all I care. It’s still going to be televised and up against strong opposition. The amount of travel with 5-6 day breaks is far more important
@Shrappy71@1116sen@kanecornes Unfortunately they list teams in alphabetical order & no team is the home side. Still likely scheduled for a Geelong trip later in the season
@Heighway_@Chookmania You want the best players in games amongst themselves & not good players being picked as they destroy apprentice tradies & students on a weekly basis.
@JamesLowrie24@PaulAmy375@SubbiesCricket Very nice James, good coaching set up with yourself, Geoff K & others. I keep an eye on Rayanjot games, at 13 you could see his batting smarts & love when young players have confidence to tell old fossils like me how to bat. Joti’d I did see bowl too last season, quality
@Stavr04@uvmcda I 100% concur with your sentiment Stavro. I’m judging him on what he can offer our playing group. We had some unsavoury characters in the 2004-11 model but for the most part they played football to a high standard & responded well to Lyon & Co. We’re improving the list.
@neil_saints We still have 10, 16, pick 40 odd. If we’re not at least trying to improve the list for the immediate future then sadly Nas won’t be sticking around. We’re addressing both. Delisted Dow, Keeler, Patrick said who he is significantly better & will hopefully draft well next month
@StKFootball Chol has kicked, 37, 42 & 31 goals last 3 years & puts forward pressure on. No star but he is close to our best goal kicker on those numbers. Can do 10% ruck with TDK doing 90%. I reckon he is a good fit & only 29 years old
@Dee__Kay__ He is right to an extent. Can’t delist 12 players as much as we’d want to do so & replace them with 12 x 18 year olds or mature age players in one hit. We still need some mature bodies for when injuries start again. Big thing we’re doing is developing a young midfield
@TimFernandoITPB Wouldn’t surprise me we trade picks to move up in the draft & may even do so on the night of the draft. We’re miles away, I’d hate to see us trade for a player
@tim_michell Adam Treloar never wanted to leave the pies. Forced out due to salary cap pressure, different situation to this though. Probably Nick Stevens is an example
