Norths 1st Round Pick - 2025 Hate Watch

[OneEyedRichmond]

Don't care about where we finish or how many games we win. If we win games though it has to be with as many kids playing as possible.

No more Short Dow, McIntosh and a few others.

Win with this side or a close variation of it when all are fit and while waiting to get em all fit build toward it.

Vlastuin  - Balta - Trainor
Brown - Gibcus/Gray - Smith. Gray while Gibcus is out. Smith is only one of about three who has the attributes for the D Rioli gig imo.

Campbell - Taranto - Clarke. We need pace and ball use on the wings desperately. HRS/Banks until Clarke is ready Seth a no brainer imo.
Nankervis - Smillie - McAuliffe. Rest Toby play Ryan if we want to see how he is travelling. Can't play both imo.

Algar - Faull - Hotton. Oh look lively classy small forwards who can rotate midfield if need be.. Faull looks like he can handle the level Physically.
Mansell - Lynch - Sims/Armstrong/Fawcett. Just rotate young  talls thru this role. Tom and Nigel provide experience and toughness.

Lalor - Hopper - Broad - Prestia - Lefau. Bench is full of experience and can be thrown into areas where we struggle. Sam Lalor by seasons end hopefully is a starting mid.

Call me crazy i think there is enough experience spread thru that team with seniors on the bench,
Imo it is the team with the most potential going forward and they fit into roles suited to them.
It at least endeavors to address serious team shortcomings as well.

We are missing a trick by not aiming for something like this team. We are missing a trick by not trying younger blokes in midfield roles.
Pick players with the right attributes for the roles we want them to play.

Great post… nailed it

Although I rarely read all of those long clawski posts I have to agree mate

Since North Melbourne have started their rebuild, Richmond have won 3 flags, started a rebuild, and already progressed further through their rebuild than North. On top of this, they have our first round pick for this season. We are an absolute stuffing disgrace.

Funny because it appears to be true.

The same bloke said that “they will beat Carlton bookmark it” 4 days prior

There is a silver lining if we lose to the Dees on Thursday.

We will hold picks 2 and 3 in the draft.

3&4 after the AFL give the Cokeheads pick 2 as compo for Allen.

I think the win last night draws a line under what we can do. We play the 3 teams currently below us on the ladder over the next month before we hit dreamtime
