Very similar player to Seb Ross. I wouldn't say no but not the type we put too much effort into getting

Re: Why Paddy_ Emma Quayle Book- exerpt

I think it's a bit concerning that the recruiter (not sure who) said as a side note to taking McCartin was that there wasn't a good KPF in this years draft. What about Shaky (I know that's spelt wrong but that's how its pronounced)? I know we won't be able to get him as he is expected to go number ...

AFL as in the sport or the organisation? If the former then it sounds like James Aish.

Saints in for Aish

I'd trade this year and next years 2nd rounders for Aish and the Lions 2016 3rd rounder. If both teams have a similar year next year to this year it'll be Aish and about 40 for 25 and 25. With academy players required this year and next it's an appealing trade for the Lions however they would push t...

Not really. He should never have been given a rookie spot IMO. Am allowed to say that or should we do a poll to see if I can say it?
I don't believe the club expected Sinclair and Lonie to be as advanced.

Re: Recruiting deck chairs on the good ship, St Kilda

Speaking of recruitment can someone help me out. The media seem to be reporting that both Treloar and Aish are going to Collingwood. According to a poster on here, Crozier is also keen on the Pies. Now firstly this proves the Pies have a competitive advantage in recruitment - mainly because they ar...

Recruiting deck chairs on the good ship, St Kilda

Every time I think about this bloke getting a gig at our footy club I shake my head. He's the worst recruiter in the business. No doubt he would love to trade pick 6 for Carlisle.

Billings and Lonie add some foot skills and they replace two with below average foot skills. Dunstan isnt too bad either.

Re: I think we'll get a top 4 pick in the draft.

Parish is a combo mid. Does his best work as an outside mid however very capable of winning clearances. His playing style is a little bit like Marc Murphy. Less productive but more damaging. Parish is always heading towards goals and can break the lines. Will be a star IMO. Likely out of our reach ...

Any comparisons with Hogan at this stage are seriously unjust. Technically this is Hogans 3rd season in the AFL given he spent a year 2013 in the VFL and then had an injury interrupted 2014 (lower back injury) which would have been used predominantly to build up body strength. On VFL form, Hogan ki...

Re: Geelong admits sourcing drug from Dank in 2009

Between 07-10 Geelong were a team of bodybuilders. They were that much bigger than any other team. It was like West Coast circa 92-94.
