Let's see how pleased with him you'll be when he offers Cooney, Griffen or Higgins $1M/year to move North.

I'd be more disappointed with them for taking it then him for offering to be dead honest.

Let's not get too carried away. He had a decade in the job and drafted two ruckman in his last draft, and has hardly added a key position player to the team over that time.

I hope these guys do make him look like a genius, but our last two drafts have less of a Clayton feel to them to me.

BT how the hell did you remember all that. Thank you for the report, sounds like a great game and some high scoring. I have been excited about Stack for a long time and can't wait till he gets his chance. Ward is very raw but all guts and reminds me a bit of how Higgins started off a few years ago, he will be a gun.

Paper, pen and sitting next to the Willi stat people. They say every players name out loud and what they do.

So there i was emersed in the game writing down nots and point differneces, and getting the stats as they happen, on the flip side they would say out loud who needs development. I wont go into that too much, i dont want ot take what i had for granted. But Shaw, Mulligan and White are going to be names on the whiteboard at years end. They;ve done their 2 years maximum on the rookie list.

I'm not too sure i'd keep Johno and Eagleton on the vets list, evelate picken, give Daniels another year and open up some new spots. I'm just not convinced. It might depend if Wight and Skipper are cut and what happens to O'Shea?

Re: BT's big day out (Willy v Frankston)

I personally think that Roughead will be the best tap ruckman drafted by any AFL team over the last 3 years.


Cordy has the most amazing atheticism for a kid so tall. His skills below his knees are sensational-will be a great forward.

Roughy's palm downs are amazing. I agree with the statetment. It;s something of a lost skill, i.e. Minson just run, crashes and bashes and that works too, But Roughy will find the nominated player to tap down to, When he gets to AFL, (1) we need to protect him and (2) we need to work on protecting players we nominate for his hitouts. That's a big want from me, if they agree tap to Boyd, the others in the middle protect Bpyd becuase there's every chance Roughy will get it to him.

Shame for me personally they rested Cordy, i would have loved to see him. But i was gutted, bloody gutted when Farren left and though only a gew pick rise in draft order. Now i'm thinking, ok, fine, go to the Saints play well, give this boy a few years. First time at VFL ressies level over kids, and he looked like ROughy and Malcolm Lynch. Miles above the comp.

Cordy had some chin soreness.

When do you think we should introduce Roughy to the big league?

Reminds me a little of The Late Show skit about 21 blades.

Very, very funny skit.

Re: BT's big day out (Willy v Frankston)

Thanks for the write up BT however it was 2nds that Liam Jones was playing, right?. I will wait before he plays for Williamstown 1sts before I go and watch him. From the highlights reel on youtube, he looks like he demands the ball be kicked to him which I like in a forward.
Also your glowing praise of Jones does not instill me with great confidence when you have an avatar of Streety! hehe

I think he has some arrangement where he will only play a few games with Willi and the remained with Scoth Colllege.

But you expect say Malcolm Lynch and even say Roughead to be miles ahead of the skill level. Bou was just above too. But Jones was miles above that level of fofoty too which is the exiciting thing. The lead out forward, run down the ground forward, play deep forward and kick 4 or 5 and then dragged to CHB in the last. I was thinking maybe a few touches and 3 goals from a schoolboy KPP on his first outing against men.

I'm just not sure how many times we will see him at Willi this year.
