No different to what Horse Longmire doing at Sydney, loading up now for one more shot. Or what Hardwick did at Richmond, Clarko at Hawks. You have to grab the opportunity when you are in charge.

Not sure Sydney are doing that, got plenty of quality <22yo's

Not Port though?

That clear enough?

What if they chucked in Miers...

Port's quality under 22's - JHF and who else?

add to that you are likely to have little draft capital in this years draft

22 or under :

Butters, Bergman, Georgiades, Lord, Jones, Visentini, Sinn, Williams ( Rozee, Drew, Marshall, Farrell are 24 or under ).

Hardly a bare cupboard in 18 months.

I said under 22

Guess my point is a new coach would have more of a view to the future, Ken (understandably in his position) is all in.

13 of the 22 that lost to GWS are under 25 or under. Quite absurd your take to be honest.

You can imagine the outfall if Grundy and Adams break down preseason and miss the start?
FWIW I think Adams has plenty left in the tank, not sure about Grundy though.

Well you’d have to do something to give your job sone security, you guys have won 10.5 games in the past 4 years, whatever you’ve tried clearly hasn’t worked.

Hoping Clayton Oliver is ok. Doesn't sound great although discharged from hospital now.

Interesting story this one.
I just read that he was an hour late for his exit interview and was told not to come to a team exit session.
Now this could be total media BS but there seems to be behavioral issues starting to pile up.
I just hope the bloke gets himself right cause he's a hell of a player to watch.

And here's me waiting for a Jordy or Ginni to be in the news for all the wrong reasons.
I know I know it's only early

Completely agree, Ken has to go for a flag and that is what he is doing, but there is fallout from this strategy and Lord being targeted because Dixon is still there is one of them.

Nothing to do with Geelong needing a spearhead to replace Hawkins and Lord being from Geelong but it's because Dixon is still there.

Bad day out today mate.

OK, we see it differently and that is fine, when are Port going to head back to the draft?

Will it take Ken moving on or will it happen before?

Heart stopped at thought of having to play for Adelaide......

According to Fox Sport this is one hell of an effort from the 22 year old:

"After rejecting the second-round offer, Geelong is reportedly targeting Power youngster Ollie Lord, who’s grandson is a legend of the Cats."
