    It says right there in the bible that the sins of the fathers will be revisited upon the sons.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

      Yeah, not real keen either.

        Isn't in their 22 at the minute and don't think he'd cost a heap, but fills a role that we're in sore need of (small forward) and is a fantastic tackler and pressure act player at his best. Has some tricks too. He's a tiny dude, but I don't think it would be a bad fit for team balance, as we aren't going to see him and Daniel (and to a lesser extent Dahlhaus) on the same line.

        I'd prefer him to Matera. Not sure of his contract status though.
        He and I are members at the same golf club. I've played with him once, he seems like a good young fella who is realistic about his game and progress as an AFL player to date.

        From what I've seen we could certainly use his pace, not sure of his finishing skills and polish.
        TF is this?.........Obviously you're not a golfer.

          Is anyone keen on Mark Blicavs as a second ruck/forward? ( Apologies if he has been mentioned previously. )

              Not a bad suggestion for a possible bargain basement pickup. I would suggest Matera would be fair bit more talented though but would cost more accordingly. Lonie is uncontracted and probably a potential delisting candidate.

              Someone like him or a Papley type from a state league for a rookie or final list spot could be worth considering.

                Can he play forward though? Has kicked 34 goals in 106 games.

                He was most effective as a tall midfielder that could go third man up, but that party is over.

                  Just a bit of trivia, I think many thought we were going to draft Jayden Foster but then it was reported that we were interested in Harry Dear. The footy world can be quite small

                    Yes, I think he can play as a midfielder and as a ruckman. Perhaps he could also be used as a tall defender.

                      One of a handful of players I can't stand and don't rate. Right up there with Baguely from Essendon. Likes to niggle but at his size it is laughable. No from me.
                      I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

                        Anyone who suffered through my top 20 post in his draft year would recall I rated him highly. Has a few tricks and could be a good option for us with more class than we hold in that position. Would probably mean the end of HC.

                          Highly? You had him at 1 didn't you...

                          Every time I see him play, I think of you. I haven't heard that much love for a player since that bloke on here who was talking up Jarrad Grant all the time.
