FWIW, I reckon we will beat Port. Just a feeling we will redeem.
Teams we beat in finals the year before play out of their skins to beat us in the early season. Meh.
Port to win by 12
Was always going to be found wanting minus Vloss, minus Houli. Is not that good enough to be our 2nd best running rebounder. Im OK with him on the list, I suggest he is somewhere between the 28th-32nd player selected next into the 22. For me not player 23rd best player with several other ahead of him IMO. Stick Houli and Vloss next to him along with Short and suggest he is more comfortable with what he needs to execute.
Egg can look very composed at VFL level and in our practice game , hence why he is still on out list
but last year in the hot games and against the Swans the pressure does seem to get to him and to be fair players around him weren't doing well
in lower sides he would have had a lot more games at AFL level and we'd know one way or the other if he could find himself at this level
but with us he is going to have to come in and perform , and if he doesn't then we start cycling thru others
To me its not the lack of composure but the lack of dare.
Oh well
Lets see how Green goes in gws reservesShouldve taken Green and given him 12 months to have a look at him.
Plus it would've helped us to get his brother
Waste of list space and should have taken punt on someone else. Will never be a good player when the whips are cracking. Waste of time keeping him as depth imo.
He has played about 15 games and played a couple of good ones in that. Don’t judge to quickly.
I can name a few triple premiership players that took many years before showing their best....

Is a good player for our VFL team but will never have the toughness both mentally and physically to become an AFL player. Can add Chol to that list as well. Silly decision to give him another contract. It was something the Tigers of old would have made. Hope we arent getting to ahead of ourselves thinking we can turn any spud into a champion. Hawks went down that route and hasnt worked out very well for them.
Think it will be the last we see off him unless we have lots of injurie. Was a mistake last week not playing a kid.
Thats right, but is close to 1 year since that disaster for him in Adelaide, and he showed the exact same deficiencies in his game. These deficiencies at AFL level are terminal IMO and he needed to show that over the last 12 months he's worked on them, but he showed no improvement. He's a beautiful kick but he needs more than that to make it, and he's just showed that he has moved no closer to making it.
In the preseason game against Melbourne he was levels above the others. It was hard to see how they could have taken Mansell ahead of him. But, yes, papers stamped.
Naish and Chol also look soft-boiled. With our strong hand in the draft, there won't be room on the list for these types.
Like Mr B said I would prefer you give a guy at least 2 games back in before dropping them. We have 2 definite and one likely out as it is.
