I am surprised Weagles have been playing him forward. To me he is the ideal budget Hurn replacement as his ball use down back is at a high level and his one on one is not bad. I do think he is a 100-200 game player at the right club/position.

I'm not worried about Geelong's starting midfielders getting less than 30 disposals, I'm worried about them getting less than 15 disposals as happened against Port Adelaide. I'm not sure why we need to be defensive about it. Just admit it and work on improving it.

Thank you for doing those tables, it takes a bit of work. People can read into it what they will, being you've shown it to be arbitrary, due to so many factors- but it sure beats people stabbing away at each other in disagreement. Of course we'd love some 30 plus games, but at the moment I'd...

...few reasons but leadership and quality of character were not the issues . Unfortunately he was too short to play as a KPD or 3rd tall and too slow to play on small/medium forwards . His kicking is also not elite enough to carry him in the side like hurn or Rich . He is like another...

Youngsters and rfc spell disaster and it keeps going. Had we not hit the mark with ready-made players we would not be talking about a dynasty. People don't get it and harp on the dynasty. Geelong has the perfect model bringing on youth mixed with oldies. As soon as one oldi retires they already...

...over Cripps. Tambling over Franklin. Fiora over Pavlich. Even Jarryd Oakley Nichols over Mitch Clarke, Shaun Higgins, Grant Birchall, Shannon Hurn & Nathan Jones. Its actually embarrassing we are trying to act like we are good at this. Outside of the Cotchin & Dusty drafts, we have never...

Well I do have the second best thighs in SA :moustache:

No Hurn no Here2tellyouwhy :moustache:

Your having a hard time from moving on from Perma C Hurn .

I was pondering this today and probably 10yr GF anniversary for a lap would probably be the appropriate time. Get the boys out and celebrate (hopefully pre-game with a bunch of newly minted premiership heroes).

Pretty sure he had a crack at Simmo about it before round 2 when they were discussing the Hurn/Shuey/NicNat lap. “Guess I didn’t play enough games to make the cutoff” or words to that effect. The way he and Jetta left felt a bit sour, but I’m not sure a very belated lap now would help much.

...a stack of WAFL if he chooses to continue past his current contract but i'd be comfortable letting him call time when he's ready like JK and Hurn before him. He's not going to be the difference between us making or missing finals in the next 2-3 years anyway but the culture you build when you...

I think you're forgetting Fraser McInnes' 17 year stint with us.

2025 would be Darling’s 15th year on the list. The only player to ever stay on longer than that is Hurn.

Ok, but again you're conflating individual performance with captaincy skills. AA selectors don't give a s**t, and will vote for Gawn. Hell the gave it to Buddy over SHannon Hurn who was premiership captain in the 2018 and in the AA team.

...Bevo does. Eagles blew things up by having to give up so much for Kelly, then lost a stack of key players regularly (Naitanui, Lecras, Kennedy, Hurn, Shuey to name a few). What’s happened to them was always on the cards as soon as they made the deal. Simpson wasn’t left much of a list to...

Ohhh and heck you Simmo for resting our best player

Also. heck SC. heck champion data heck Hurn for retiring (still love you) heck you all heck everything Again yearly heck everything post.

Ashley Hansen another. I'm sure there's more.

Let’s hope you can add Harley to those numbers.

At West Coast: Hurn 333 games (SA) Gaff 275 games (Vic) Shuey 248 games (Vic) Wirrpanda 227 games (Vic) Braun 228 games (Vic) Will Schofield 194 games (Vic) Adam Selwood 187 games (Vic) Sam Butler 166 games (SA) Beau Waters 120 games (SA) All bar Gaff are premiership players. So, not really an...

Shuey, Gaff, Hurn

He was an elite kick and not slow. That's what set him apart from other man childs.

It didn't stop Hurn. I would have asked for his birth certificate. Looked like he had already done fifteen years on the job site.

Could go down as a Hurn, Stewart, Vlaustain type of A+ defender. Can get a solid 8 years of consistency and leadership being one of if not the best small defenders in the league. Really wanted him to be a mid but I think well get a lot more value out of him as a team keeping him down back and...

If Baker wants to go to West Coast then that would be a disaster for Richmond. West Coast have publicly stated they will be doing a full rebuild and won't be looking at taking any short cuts so no chance the high draft pick you'd want would be offered by West Coast and there's also no chance...

Like I said in a earlier post Ginbey kicking action is fine, his problem is like Clayton Oliver's in his early years He needs to learn to take that half a second longer to compose himself that will come with more time in the middle and another preseason He can be a elite kick and showed this as...

I get where you're coming from re Maric for sure BUT he looked really good up forward last week. JD really is on his last legs and Maric seems the perfect replacement. We do need an elite distributor too but my hope is Ryan really grows into that role. He's a brilliant field kick, can be...
