Keep him


If that’s not going to happen he’s got to go for something good in return - I’d tell them to put pick 25 where the Sun doesn’t shine and offer him a decent contract

Gee, I'm pretty disappointed if this is the highlight of our off season. He's not good enough to play for Geelong. We may reposition him as a back 🤞who can ruck— and Geelong were at least a game ahead at the top of the ladder - I’ve had a couple on a Friday so haven’t gone through the thread that c...

Geelong have never seriously tried him in any position other than ruck/forward. If he's late to the game, then playing as a forward is tough. You need to be able to really read the play. Maybe they thought he'd be the next Nic Nat, but he is 3cm taller with an amazing leap. But how long did it take...

Why wouldn’t we go for Josh Schache instead ???
Makes no sense to me

I would not be upset if we took Josh scache ( mentioned I’m the above article) and tried him as a key defender

I watched the last quarter today. Good game. I do feel st kilda is miles behind in skills and desperation stakes. It's like I was watching a different code. I kind of agree - I watched a fair bit of the first 2 games —which were great games - and while I felt the skills were better than what we bri...

In the last few years we have lost 4 KPD's - Carlisle, Clav, Frawley now Joyce - Adams is the only replacement brought in and he by all accounts is way off it atm.

Surely they must have a KPD trade/free agent ( or 2) in mind as replacment ?

He’s been tried forward and back - maybe he could have a break out season through the middle?

Bad oversight by the lads.

What about Geary ? Has he already been chaired off earlier in the season?

Difference is Geary hadn't announced his retirement before his last game.

Paddy Ryder says Hi

Will be disgraceful display by the AFL if the report isn’t thrown out immediately

2 more 198cm+ guys - at least 1 more as a bare minimum

I don’t know how old he is but he is the right size

Sharman has potential to more than a GOP - if the sun hadn’t got in his eyes he probably takes a very strong contender for mark of the year - he attacks the ball at the highest point even if a pack gets in the way As lead up he’s probably better than a pack marker and he’s an excellent finisher As f...

Our game plan is brilliant and will never be worked out or emulated by an opposition side Our entire football department is aware of this Bomb it long to tall a forward line, out mark the smaller competition, kick goals and win Because we are 2 steps ahead of any opposing team and their football dep...

Battle or maybe highmore could become elite intercept markers in the backline- I don’t think we need Membrey going back there What we need as previously stated is another tall back man and Howard to be out there - ie 2 tall backs to play on the tall forwards Battle shouldn’t be wrestling blokes 10cm...

…..we need to recruit at least 1 more tall back - our recruiters dont seem to have picked up on that…. What would you have done last night? Mid-third term. It’s clearly going pear-shaped. I suggested Marshall play at CHB at the start of the year…. I would have sent him there last night…(Look, I don...

We dont have the players - the supporters have known for years that we need to recruit at least 1 more tall back - our recruiters dont seem to have picked up on that. ( we lost carlisle, clavarino, and the hawthorn guy in 1 go and our recruiters didnt think maybe the list needs to balance out the lo...

Agree on some of your points

I think we are now definitely taking 2023

Coops?

Regarding the actual goal as per the OP it was a clutch goal at a critical time in the game

I can’t think of too many guys on the list you would rather give the ball to in that situation - given he’s only an 8 game player I think that says something

At this point I’m still on the bandwagon

Umpiring was ordinary but you already know the home team will get the rub of the green call it noise affirmation or cheating it happens & as much as I fu--ing hate it it happens .I've been to Saints /Eagles games & its 1 rule for them & another for us but that's just how it is and we ju...

That’s a complete joke - how did the guy get off for breaking Clark’s jaw ??

The player Ryder bumped, Will Day, has been subbed out, that will look worse for Paddy i think. Yes, the commentators are all over it. They think there may be a case to answer. However, you are allowed to stand your ground and brace as far as I know. Will be an interesting one. I’m convinced there ...

This appears to be a good appointment. The Governance of a multi-million dollar entity is extremely important. When you get it right, everything sails along nicely. Get it wrong and it’s front page of the paper stuff. The most effective boards I have served on have good gender balance. The problema...

I’m sorry- I will admit that I’ve had 1-2 drinks with a couple of friends but that article is a nightmare to read

With all due respect to the guy the club needs to present good news stories a little better
