Three things you have learned. *ELIMINATION FINAL* 2020 v St Kilda.

[Happy Days]

Just on Naughton, he took 2 monster pack marks in the last qtr and in both of them he had to compete against his direct opponent and also Bruce and his direct opponent. Their chemistry is a clear problem.

I can think of one solution.

[The bulldog tragician]

I can think of one solution.

Move him to the backline where his spoiling could be an asset?

[comrade]

I can think of one solution.

The Polec Protocol?

The Polec Protocol?

I thought it might be the Shane Stremple solution down at the Yarraville nets

[GetDimmaBack]

How often do I need to learn these things?

1. THey had Marshall and Ryder. We had English. We need our Ryder.

2. Bad kicking is bad football.

3. Apparently we might have a chance at a good kid in the draft. Haven't heard much about him, though...

How would a Peter Wright work out for us. We could move Naughton back to FB, Jamara forward pocket, and Peter and English swapping in the ruck/ forward roles?

Think it was a bit tongue in cheek that comment ED

We could go after Peter Wright, but is he the player we need to fill a specific role? Since our flag we have traded in Cloke, Trengove, Schache and now Bruce to address specific KPP needs and none of them have improved our team at all to date. That is an unmitigated trading and list management disaster.

Wright may well be worth chasing but what is the specific role we are chasing him for? Worth noting that he failed to get a game all season in a bottom 5 team and wasn't injured.

Ruck/Forward to help out Tim

[bulldogsthru&thru]

On paper Wright is the perfect player to compliment Tim in the ruck and spend time forward. However he's not really a ruckman at all. Not any more than Trengove is. And getting him means we certainly need to offload Schache and potentially even Bruce. That's not even considering why he can't get a game for the Suns.

Ruck/Forward to help out Tim

What are his ruck stats? How many minutes per game has he rucked previously and can ruck moving forward? Will he improve our stoppage game and give the midfield first CLEAN use? If he comes in, what then of Schache and Bruce, who are almost identical types (primarily forward but can ruck a bit when needed)?

Sorry for all the questions but they need to be asked. My preference is for a quality stoppage ruckman who can provide value elsewhere (aka Goldy despite his age). I'm not sure Wright ticks all those boxes.

If the Saints are going hard for Taranto, they'll certainly be splashing some coin. I know they won't let him go but what would it take to pry Marshall out?

Just a suggestion, that is all.

Same questions you are asking can be directed to anyone coming in.

I have seen Jamarra to be 194cm and 196cm in a number of different articles. Here we go again.
