Re: Coff
Has had a horror run with injury , on way back mid season and does a calf. No way could have played this year after that at afl level. Was a top 10 pick and top 5 in B & F so compensation would want to be reasonable. Be at pains to see him go before others . Just because another club enquirers d...

Cordy or Dougs
This will be a tough one. Probably a decision not expected to have to make 24 weeks ago.
Any guesses

Re: EX-SAINTS OF THE LAST DECADE AT OTHER CLUBS
Agree with most. Stanley was a mistake - never really tried as a ruck properly at Stkilda. Made worse drafting Goddard at 21 who didn't work out at all. Names such as Steele, Touk Miller, Maynard, Mitch McGovern, Dougal Howard, Langdon drafted afterwards doesnt help - also that stanley is now a Pre...

Re: What price Liam Henry?
interesting in recent times this type of player and time line sees a similar pick to where they were originally selected.
My guess would cost a late first rounder ?

Re: Top Heavy?
Anyone else think we went in against Brisbane with too many talls? The game changed when a running player, Byrnes, came on for Battle. We had Cordy Wilkie, Battle down back, with Hayes, Membrey Sharman as the tall forwards. But we also have Owens and the Pou who are hybrid forwards who compete in t...

Hope he is retained, has something we lack in regard to elite foot skills and poise. Just needs some continuity of games.

Re: Ross out, clark in who subs
Jack Hayes. Can give Roma a chop-out. Give us a big body up forward. Versatile and can play a number of roles. Good, competitive guy to have on the show. Or Coffield if he’s right Huge risk to go with any big as a sub. mid gets inj or concussion then too top heavy , where as if big goes down easier...

To me I would see this as a logical move and sub being one of Billings or if they want to potentially use him in finals Coffield.

So how much do you pay him to keep him? What's he worth to us (contract wise) to stay? If he was offered 600-700k by NM (or anybody else), would you match/beat that to keep him? Similar question re Gresham - how much are you prepared to offer to keep him? That is the big question, which really appl...

Re: Our list is better than we think it is
Interesting take on the list, and agree it isn't too bad, but a coach with a clear plan and players understanding their role and requirements helps .
