hardly a gamble
have u seen the number 2 picks in the last decade? all better players than chips + we get 12 years out them. Chips has 1 or 2 years tops.

I know people have emotional attachments to players - as we al should because its a great team emotional game- but this is a completely ridiculous debate.

It is a no-brainer. As for your undermanned defence - we have a million medium sized defenders. Chips doesnt play tall so doesnt help our structure anyway . we will staill need a larger defender without or without chips.

Can't say I agree with that call.

Daniel Wells. Not Better Than Fisher.
Andrew Walker. Not Better Than Fisher.
Jarryd Roughead. Not Better Than Fisher.
Dale Thomas. Not Better Than Fisher.
Scott Gumbleton. Not Better Than Fisher.
Trent Cotchin. Fair call.
Nic Naitanui. Potential but has a long way to go.
Jack Trengove. Potential but has a long way to go.
Harley Bennell. Potential but has a long way to go.
Stephen Coniglio. Potential but has a long way to go.

And the two before that were Ball and Kosi. Not better than Fisher.

Massive underselling of Sam Fisher there Con. Can't agree with your opinion at all....HOWEVER, if pick 2 is up for Chips....would be very hard to say no to that.

You couldn't but I am sure it isn't.


Lance or James??

There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)

Jimmy Toumpas will be an absolute champion midfielder.

I would actually consider 12 & 14 over pick 2 only. The depth is quite reasonable at that stage but I must say I havent seen much of Toumpas so should really judge him. Or if we had 12, 13 & 14 we could swap it for the Bulldogs 5 & 6... Its about as likely as Frawley though so its not gonna happen guys!
