AFL Round 2^4

[MW]

No one is carving anything up from half back but that's the coaches decision with the game plan not the back lines. I am very comfortable with Brodie Smith.

My Crow loving mate just loves Hartigan.

If you were a Crows follower he'd surely drive you to drink?

Stop, just stop....

Thats not the tune we've been hearing out of West Lakes for years. Maybe need to get him up to a role on the wing? Not saying the lad can't play, but he should be one of your best and he seems a fair way off that

The whole game has changed so much from 2017 when he played his best football, sides don't allow running defenders like him space (every side plays a defensive forward) and finding space to lead into for him is harder than ever. I'd take Smith, but, at 27 and with Adelaide's window closing he's one who could (as clubs do at the moment) bring in a pick worth adding for the next tilt.

Who would have said Port would trade Wingard this time last year?

[MW]

I'm only talking about this year.

2015 he was 3rd in metres gained, 2016 he was 5th and 2017 he was 6th before his knee.
Back to 4th so far in 2019

I'm not sure how metres gained is viewed as a metric, if you kick it to the opposition it's still metres gained.

Would you like to take Wingard back?

Every time I see Burton play for Port, a small piece of me dies.

going at 73%
all im saying is there are plenty to look at before Smith

Not necessarily.. sure it's been said a few times - metres gained is based off 2 possesions.. your possesion + the following one.

Kick to an opposition and they run and kick back over your head, metres gained would be a loss.

No and I bet it does.

I agree, but in the modern game if you want to trade for picks you have to give something up and Smith would have currency.

I wouldn't sell him, but it wasn't me that brought his name up. JK!!!

Well it seems to have worked trading Vince out so you never know...depends on who they have their eye on in the draft I guess.
Big off season coming up.

Not quite. Its from the moment the person collects the ball to the moment the next person disposes it so if they get it, run 30m and kick 60m to their teammate, then they dispose of it, its 90m gain.

Sorry mate, was off grabbing Popcorn.

I'd sell him if you got a price that worked, but would happily keep him. Gotta get more from him (and nearly all of their better tier players) though.

Already talking off season in round 17...

I'm not! We just need to make the finals and then a repeat of 2016 is on the cards!

Would maybe get a late second rounder or a third rounder. Wouldn’t be worth moving him on. Doesn’t desuto he moved on either remembering he is just back from a knee injury

[Brodlach]

Anybody give Brisbane a chance over GWS?

Yep big chance

Agreed.

$3.25 H2H and $1.91 with a 20.5 point head start.

$$$

Only highlight (and bet) of my footballing weekend

Had a nibble at Brisbane winning by more that 15.5 too

Glad you popped in, want to hang around for a cuppa and a chat?
