Re: Saints drop out of race for Fyfe - Herald Sun
I would think that with the TPP increases our chance of landing a "big fish" have been reduced and reckon we may well bring in a decent player of the Devon Smith ilk, but not a big fish like Kelly. I have no problem with that, use our draft picks well and keep with the strategy of peaking ...

Re: Mcstake
I thought Paddy advanced today in his development.
Did not clunk his marks, got to a lot of good positions but was often bypassed, or received poor delivery.
Could have kicked three or four.
Get games into him, and when he leads, kick it to him. (Hopefully with a decent pass)

Re: Mcstake
McCartin should stay in the ones for the rest of the year. He is a presence, missed his marks today and had no delivery. He is different to the other forwards was in the right spot often but ball not delivered (same with whole forward line today)- matter of gelling with the play structure and settli...

Re: How I would trade 2017:2018
In 2-3 years Paddy will be our best big forward by a long shot. I am surprised he has been given so many games in the ones to date. He is a big lug and was always going to take time. He is currently learning how to contest and minimise his chances of getting his head whacked, needs a bit more fitnes...

Re: Can Longer save Richo's hide??
Longer provides a stronger presence at ruck contests. He won more tap outs than McEvoy and I thought more than held his own. McEvoy kicked 2 goals, one where Billy was pushed in the back & the second he was not in the ruck. He is vital against Mummy next week - better option than Hickey. There i...

Re: Match thread v cats
Very good effort - showed we can beat anyone. Got some bad decisions, Longer, Riewoldt injured, Steven etc ran out of legs, Gresham had a poor game, coaches should have tried harder to clamp down Selwood, Dangerfield, bit of experience won the game. Scoreboard flatters Geelong. Developing sides main...

Re: Billings and mccartin
McCartin has not reached 21 yet, he is a key forward, Petracca is just another solid midfielder, no gun in my opinion. As has been stated a number of times, good key forwards are very hard to find or very expensive. I do not expect McCartin to really have an impact until he is 23 or 24, about when w...

Re: Petracca v McCartin
My only concern with McCartin is keeping him on the park. I have no doubt he was the right choice & he will be a gun forward, and has shown plenty already.
One gun forward is worth 2 top midfielders - and midfielders are much easier to recruit/poach.

Re: Luke Dunstan to be traded?
A lot of people look at the stats after the game, watch the highlights, but don't really see the work Dunstan does in the clinches, getting the ball out to advantage. One of our most valuable players, every team needs a couple of Dunstans. Already one of the midfield leaders. Surely there is no thou...

Re: Billings
A mistake, I think, to try to turn him into something he is not ... a tackling machine, grunt type of player. Sure, work on his weaknesses, but get him to play to his strengths. Good vision and good reader of the play and creative. Maybe a run and carry out of defence role? Anyway, nowhere near rea...
