What about Shane Edwards?

Something to think about.

The reality never are 15th and a young side.

There is nobody on the list with finals experience.
The Dogs has Boyd and Morris.
The Tigers had played and lost a few finals together.

Plugged kicked a lazy 13....
Lol.
Just incredible.

Great post.
Very interesting stats.
What a turnaround.

He is 27 and has played 130 games.

A bit more than a project player.

Probably ripe for the picking to head to NSW if he wants to go north.

If we want him for his Hawthorn ip- no thanks ( Get Sam Mitchell or Brett Ratten )

Jordan.
He plays ruck.

Will go to Swans or GWS imo.

He's gonna be a ripper. Elite.
Don't you worry.....
Just wait until he strings a few games together.........

Should be straight in.
Id also like to see Connellan get a run at it ahead of Lonie.

Stonecold after reading team this week

Too old for us.

Adelaide aren't the savvy club they appear to be.
Paid overs for Sloane and Jenkins imo.

Maybe we should have a sniff around Rory Atkins.

Riewoldt was a tall skinny aerobic athletic freak and a trainaholic built for the modern game.

Any comparisons with Paddy are ludicrous. Besides the draft pick number.

The accurate comparison to Roo on field is Charlie Curnow.

Oh dear god.

There is being positive.

And then there is just being plain ridiculous.

He might be old, but who is skippering us next year?
Someone needs to

Mav Weller

At 35 games Rooey had kicked 30 goals. Given a couple early were down back. His first bag was Stewie Loewe’s last game when he kicked 6. Which was around about game 28. Roo played alongside Stewie (for his first 28), G Train, Sammy Hamel, which meant he would get at least the 3rd tall defender on h...

We are the $2 shop of the AFL.

Most inconsequential club apart from the Gold Coast Suns.

Choco is of west indies heritage.
Not aboriginal.

The whole thing about who a player supported as a kid is always rubbish.
Players are grown men. It is business.
Who they went for as a kid almost never comes in to it so all.

Who is Tony74?

Could be the same bloke....

Andrew Waddington?

As close to Tony Watering as I can find....

Definitely a better player than Savage.

The umpires were very s***. I think it was just before half time when they got those two 'high tackle' frees in a row. It was simply bizarre.
Lucky they didnt get a goal - but it probably cost us one.

True the stuff only the insiders see. The off ball blocking for example.
Valued very highly internally

No doubt he was poor; but I’ve never seen a forward able to kick bags when the only delivery he gets are munged helicopters, hospital passes, grubbers or 15m either side of him. I have, but he was the greatest player I’ve ever seen. Been away for a while, but am 'inspired' to stick my oar back in. ...

e.g. when defenders don't try to spoil and the ball is delivered lace out. Tend to agree. This is the AFL circa 2018. The fwd line is ultra congested. The defenders are all good. Week in and week out. Those suggesting if Paddy got some more lace out passes he'd be a star are dreaming. This wont hap...
