It's funny how it's only two extra players yet when I look at my list it looks huge. Don't know which emoji to put after that
I couldn't believe he'd slipped so far, I was starting to get my hopes up. Top 10 draft pick, should slot in nicely next to Hogan for the next 10 years. I should of remembered there's another coach who doesn't mind the KPFs.
The weid - what a steal! squad balance meant I had to prop up a potentially dodgy defence - so let him slide. Thief!
I hate all of you.... my entire shortlist wiped out Oh well, hopefully brings about the desired effect of evening up the comp where any team can win the flag!
Don't look at me mate, I've never held anyone up! As we've said tho, there's no rush as everyone has done great this preseason
Massive effort, have to be some sort of record for the comp! Interesting to see so many (me included) coaches change strategy in the mini draft change and go for more seasoned players over rookies
Quality work all round Gents. The Smugglers are open to trade offers - seeking forwards and mids. Happy to part with a starting ruck, for those coaches who are worried about posting numerous OOP 30s throughout the season.
For anyone who has Suns players in their squad.....Here are some comments from todays intra club game played in sweltering heat...42.4C in the shade as I type this.. Bloody sweltering conditions out there. Witts our only ruckman today so he basically just hit it to space at the bounces and had set running patterns to adhere to ie. sprint to forward line to create option, float back, etc. Rocket making sure he has plenty of kms in the legs. Nicholls still jogging laps only and Currie sat the game out. Not sure on his injury. 2MP (finger), Sexton (wrist) sat the game out. Gaz running laps only. Brodie & Bowes are ball magnets. Just find the ball so easily. Hanley was very good. Rotated centre square and the wing. Ran hard, beautiful disposal. Looks really switched on. Miller, Hall & Fiorini played very well. Hall back to his explosive long running goals out of the centre square. Lyons is a beast. Only played 1st half but is a clearance machine. Still can't believe the Crows let him go. Bizarre. Jacky Martin looks super keen. Eager to take game on. Played 3rd forward and rotated through the middle. You can see his confidence is high, using his side step and speed to burn players off. Swallow got plenty of kms into the legs. Worked into it nicely. Not huge possessions but don't think that is the main aim just yet. Matera actually had a good game, kicked at least 3 goals. But still kicked his usual hospital kicks around his body that just set up our forwards to be smashed in the back of the head. Saady is back to his electrifying Saadiness. Run, bounce, baulk, bounce, run, repeat. Looks very fit and moving freely. Lynch & Day played on Thompson & May. Entertaining. Lynch good, Day not so much.
