Who on our current list do you think could become our next Alex Rance of Jack Riewoldt?
(A grade superstar)
I'm going to say Callum Moore. I haven't seen much of him but he definitely has something about him. Anyone else agree?
-
No one.....
Faint hope for C.Ellis and Rioli but neither are KPP's, aside from those to the list looks stuffed!
-
O'h I forgot about Chol, this kid is showing more promis than anyone and could be anything, fingers crossed :pray
-
If he ever got his head right, Reece McKenzie.
Other than that Chol.
Pretty sad isn't it...... :banghead
-
Chol thats it

Imagine having a Darcy Parish, Heeney or Mills coming through. Or a Petracca that hasent even played a game yet.
Rioli could be elite for us, we need to keep playing him regardless of his kicks and handball stats. If we can get 20 games into him and he has a couple of really good ones in that 20, we have done well.
I've given up on Conca, and BEllis and slowly losing faith in Vlastuin and Lennon being anything more than just average players.
We need to keep playing kids.
I heard a stat today that Hawthorn played 7 first year players last year or the year before, while still managing to win a premiership. Clarkeson always has his eye on the future..

BT, fair call but Lennon hasnt had much opportunity, Vlastuin I think is same as a lot of players, sick and tired of the coach perzisting with a stupid gameplanAND continually maki g stupid decisions at the selection table.
-
The real question is who is good enough to overcome our shyte coaching, crap gameplan & lousy development on top of having to play with duds, squibs, bludgers, recycled hacks and, in the case of our VFL side, park footballers? All credit due to those few that actually have flourished.
-
I agree that credit is due

Yer I tend to agree on Vlastuin.
But Lennon hasent really shown much to be honest. We all hope but he is still miles away from even being a decent contributor.

Actually a much better question.

Watching the Dogs vs Roos you see how football dumb our list is. Little things like diving on the ball but doing it in a way that doesn't attract a holding the ball free everytime. Getting swung by the shirt near the boundary so just holding back on the kick so it doesn't go out on the full. One or two at the most going to tackle a player and having players waiting for the ball over the top. Why don't we seem to have many players on our list who have a football brains?
-
They have both gone past us

Understatement of the century!
It's like watching a different sport.
Same ball, same shape ground, same scoring system, but just a different game entirely.
The dogs should be in front.
Fu)( I hate north!

There is intent and there is intent, watching other sides it's like they want the ball so much more than us. Our boys see quite content to challenge for the ball but are satisfied at that rather than really winning the ball at all costs. Clearly different levels of intent between the teams playing tonight and us.

Very rarely either side just kicks it long down the line to a contest. They are all just moving to create an option other than that long kick to a contest.

True but when they have no choice they still challenge for the ball and seem to have players at the base of every pack. That is purely by gut running to ensure a contest. We on the other hand either meekly lose a one on one marking contest or the ball hits the ground with no Tiger in sight. As has been said it's like watching a different game when watching other teams, we are so far off the pace it's not funny.

Hate Norf. They've done everything better than us including money ball, getting players that actually contribute by making the team better. Have recruited better than us during compromised drafts. Their older players are killing it unlike our older players, they also have depth unlike us and a quality ruckmanthat competes all over the ground.
They are coached well too as Scott clearly out coaches Dumma every time, whilst coaching the team to its strengths.
Yes bloody hate Norf!
-
Rioli.
Also, fudge North.

Rance and jack are top shelf
We don't have replacements for them...

You don't think Rioli COULD get to his uncles level?? A grader star.
You don't think C. Moore after kicking 4 goals in his 4th game of VFL footy COULD become our next Jack?
You don't think Vlastuin COULD turn into the next star midfielder?
