Re: Acres would look good in a saints jumper

There is a site you can compare players. Here is the link for Hill vs Acres this year. Measure it how you like. Acres just ahead for mine. https://www.footywire.com/afl/footy/ft_player_compare?playerStatus1=A&tid1=16&pid1=3671&fid1=S&playerStatus2=A&tid2=9&pid2=3936&fid2=...

Re: Paddy on "On the couch"

Paddy was drafted at no 7 in the 2005 draft.

Hawks had pick 6 and went with Beau Dowler.

I sometimes like to imagine the level of horror the Hawthorn dynasty could have gone too with Paddy as their ruckman.

Re: Saints vs Port. Game thread

Gutted to watch that game turn.
Keeping them close on the scoreboard keeps them in the game.

We lost that more than Port won it.

Re: Set Shots for Goal

Whilst I think most of these attempts should have been drop punts, it was the spinning of the ball in hands that frustrated me. I'm probably being an old curmudgeon, but none of them had a decent hold of the ball going into their run up. I think you should have a firm grip and positioning of the bal...

Re: Hayes

Hayes is a competitive beast.

We only have a small snippet of his career so far, but I have yet to see him concede an inch without a fight.

Without knowing what his future holds, I feel confident that Jack won't have any regrets.

Re: Rowan Marshall

He averages less than a goal per game. Less than 2 marks i50. Is not a reliable shot. IMO he’s a pretty average forward. It’s pretty obvious he’s a better ruckman than forward. We win games for a multitude of reasons If you put it down to ruckmen that’s a bit simplistic. Ryder gives some extra clea...

And his best season 2019 without Ryder

IMO a 8/10 ruckman, and 3/10 forward
3/10 is ridiculous. You really believe he is below average?

Sorry DMac, still loved your game.

I feel Marshall's game is not going to get more than a couple of votes by most, but his game was absolutely massive.

Re: Grimes did not play on King!

I've seen this doing the rounds.

I'm not a smart man, but if what I have read is true then Grimes is worth 20 goals a game and the greatest defender that has graced the game.

Round 7 1991.

Winmar also returned that round after being suspended for 10 weeks due to a Brereton racial tirade.

Looking forward to the next no 7 to gun full forward dynasty.
