Re: Round 16 Team v Carlton

He only played a half.

Perfect warm up if he was going to be brought in as the sub.

Saw this guy against Port Melbourne about 4 weeks ago. Played terribly but that could be a one off. Looks an excellent prospect at Ormond next year so yes if this is thread about recruits for a D grade amateur side then yes lets get him. Actually with a bit of luck we may be C grade.

Re: Matthew Watson (Carlton) - KPD

So he's not getting a game for carlscum, hardly a powerhouse team and you want to recruit him. I didn't say I wanted to, I asked the question whether it was something worth considering.

No doubt to Plugger's dismay, my search continues... Only (nearly) 21, great size at 195cm and 100kgs, thought that's bordering on short in these days of 197cm plus KPFs :P! Naturally a CHB, with a booming left foot from memory, and will only be 21 next month. Not getting a game this year for the Pa...

Wouldn't have a clue whether they're good, and no interest in 'I told you so.'

Re: FB: Matthew Sully - Geelong VFL

You missed the bottom line.... Now 196cm and 95kgs... Also keep an eye on Fraser Fort (Geelong Falcons, 18, 196cm 84kgs) and Harley Walshe (Western Jets, 19, 196cm and 90kgs). Walshe was eligible to be drafted last year, but as a bottom ager and at only 83kgs. Likened himself to Dustin Fletcher due ...

A lot beefier than Dylan.

Plays as a genuine CHB/FB by all accounts too.

Re: Git 'er done: Taylor Adams - GWS

Ideally (for me) we'd snag Adams, Jack Billings and a monster FB from somewhere - anywhere - I don't care about a lot of extra skill sets, like attacking prowess, just give me a solid kick on a genuine gorilla-stopper body, with adequate pace. Peak Matt Maguire but 195cm and 95kg plus! Not asking to...

Re: Key positions

From what I have seen LEVER doesnt have the body strength or speed to play as a key position player, he wil be lucky to remain on the senior list after this year you would think. Ferguson may develop into a CHB with some luck. They both need size and strength which for some reason SAINTS players se...

Re: Key positions

Be very interesting if Tom Boyd fell through to our first pick in the draft; 199cm, 102kgs, on 17 and mobile. Very Tom Hawkins-like from the footage I've seen, but less of a sook than Hawkins when playing on men. More than held his own against Collingwood's VFL side. Is that the sook that was good ...

Re: Ins/Outs for next week

Ray out is laughable. Agree with Maister and one of Milera/Saad. I don't belive its laughable at all. Ray's got courage and ability, but his kicking is often atrocious and undoes all of his good work. We can't afford to carry that at the moment. Ha Ha and you want Jones in for his kicking ..??? Ray...
