Re: St Kilda to chase Kristian Jaksch

Off to the Doggies for 5 years according to 3AW. That chase was short lived.

Re: We have to take Petracca at number one

Pretty sure that Pelchen played a massive role in building a list that ultimately netted the Hawks the 2008 premiership. There's many ways to skin a cat in order to get 3 inside 20 and if it doesn't happen then big deal. Richo would also have a fair say into the type of player we need and if Petracc...

Re: signing #7 Acres to 2018

WA boy, longer term contract makes sense given the lure of returning home. God knows we don't want another Jamie Cripps type situation. Good positive move!

Re: Eli in 2014 - upgrade or rookie?

Upgrade him, will only cost us pick 80 or something ridiculous. A known quantity is far better than passing on a pick later in the draft. Already had a year in the system so will be better next year.

Re: Richo on hooking into the list

TDL, Jones, Fisher, Schneider, Hayes and Dunnell will probably be moved on. I suspect Sipposs will be shopped around and wouldn't surprise me to see Monty moved on at the right price. Coach has already flagged we'll be younger next year so I would expect that most of the older guys will be eased out...

Re: Petracca Vs McCartin

FWIW Petracca is already developed so there's a reasonable chance he's playing better against the kids due to his size. This years draft is choc full of KPP's whereas as next year will again be a midfielders draft by all accounts. For that reason, take McCartin so he can have at least a season with ...

Who should get the No.7 guernsy

Ok, with the assumption that Lenny is retiring at years end who do you think is the most worthy player to get the cherished No.7?
I'll start with the obvious one - Luke Dunstan. Lenny clone. Possible future captain. Perfect choice for mine!

Re: Spencer White must play

I don't see why they wouldn't give him a couple of games. I know he's raw and needs to work harder but seriously we are pathetic at the moment. Pretty much every other player on the list (except Markworth) has had a game. Roll the dice, play him and see if we have a player.

Re: Nicky Dal recruit of the year

It was a mutual decision. He fits Norths needs a they needed outside class. Doesn't get tagged either so it's no surprise his numbers are up again this year. Not ideal that we had to trade him but he won't play in a premiership at North so he effectively marking time until he's done! Still a champio...

Re: Worried. Wake up call (to me)

We have a lot of holes on the ground at the minute. No Fwds, Midfield depth and even another 3rd tall defender. We got hammered out of the middle as Warnock pretty much did as he pleased in the hi touts dept. Some perspective though, we are a side in transition. Half way (possibly less) through a to...

Re: Knee jerk reaction threads - pls post 'em here

Simpkin unfortunately cannot play. By my count he had at least 6 kicked on him, possibly 8 (Gubstan 4, S'Makers 4) Fancy letting Schoenmakers give you the stick. It's time to leave him where he plays his best football. At Sandy!

Re: Are we at all surprised?

We have been incredibly bad today. Hawthorn run harder, kick better and hurt you when they have the ball. We have played like a team that is light in for talent. Not overly surprising though. Shows have far we need to go before were anywhere near the Hawks level.

Re: New boys - How many games?

I don't understand how Bruce doesn't play most games. We cried out for key defenders during last season and we go and get them and don't play them. I see Delaney FB and Bruce CHB which then frees up Fisher & Roberton to play the rebounding defenders role.

Re: Jimmy to re-establish himself

Dempster could quite easily move into Jones role in the midfield so that would free up a half back spot for Gwilt. If we are to move forward as a club then Jones sin't in the best 22 unfortunately.

I'm pretty sure Port poached Hinkely from the GC last year after a "drawn out process". He's a flog Kochie, trying to use his media influence to scare us off.

Why sound Williams out before you sack Watters and then baulk at his terms. Just seems strange that we would push someone to coach the club ho wasn't interested 24 hours ago. Wreaks of penny pinching for mine.
