In 2019, at 19 years of age Naughton took the most contested marks in the AFL and had 59 scoring shots. In 2020, he only played 12 games, and...

Only genetically. His dad's knees shortened his career.

So Scharenberg will play with the best home ground advantage there is. Sloping small oval with no grass, occasional snow, constantly numb fingers...

I agree that Naughton's impact forward is overrated and overstated at the moment. Danjul (i think) said Naughton's main play as a forward has been...

Naughton as the second coming of Chris Grant is really based off one or two games that he has torn apart in amongst a bunch of games where he has had...

Is there concerns over his speed and agility?

without disagreeing, I find the description of Naughton based upon hope rather than proven performance. In 2020 both Naughton and Bruce had a poor...

Blicavs will go back in 2021 but has played plenty of time on the wing. Darcy Jnr is only 3cm taller than Patty Cripps!

Given we've gone into matches before with Cordy and 186cm Wood as our two KPDs, I suspect we're not sending anyone back. Keath plays and Cordy gets...

5) The soft cap meaning we have to reduce the off-field coaching budget Stef Martin/Luke Hodge/Sam Mitchell/Joel McDonald type deals will become...

A glut? Who of our forwards is dangerous enough to turn a game in our favour? Bruce? Maybe St.Kilda Bruce, but certainly not the liability that...

Agree, I think Bruce will play in defence before Naughton.

Naughton hasn't played as a lockdown defender. He originally played with us as an attacking intercept defender, a role we have currently good...

Exactly. If we can get a better result with him in defence, Bruce as our main target and with English playing part time forward wouldn't we go with...

Great forwards are a rarity and Naughton has the talent to be a great forward. For me, Naughton stays at FF. For the backline, I am not adverse at...

That's a very good distinction to make. We have to make it work with what we've got, they just all can't play forward so someone will be earmarked...

Should we play Naughton where it's best for him (and his highlights reel) or best for the team? Because I'm yet to be convinced it's the same...

Some might argue that “stick to none” might be historically more accurate.

In the last 2 years as a forward Naughton has had 5 games where he has kicked more than 2 goals. His main contribution to the team has been...

I get why it's being mentioned and suggested but I'd be very surprised if we made that move. He's a special talent at both ends of the ground but he...

I know you are big on Naughts forward and so am I. It is borne purely out of my frustration with the CHB position at our club. I don't think Gardner...

I guess there might be 4 factors in this 1) making the decision on JT 2) a realisation that Sweet isn't ready 3) The performance by English through...

Rebuilding about 8 years ago saw The Dogs spend a few years putting together a fantastic group of players. They had a mixture of talent and ambition...

Naughton can play back. Big woop. He has shown himself to be the best key forward prospect since Chris Grant. Why *WOULD* he be the one to...

with the way the games going, your not half wrong. I suspect he'll grow an extra few CM's over the next year or two, hopefully fills out and can...
