The prodigy son has returned, Pendles have mercy

 

[BuckleysBrigade]

Hinge won't make way ....more likely Dawson for Sholl ...remember Laird is out with the broken hand & Seedsman, the normal Winger out with concussion

How far off is Milera? I see he played a SANFL practice last week?

They're saying Milera's a chance this week ....I don't believe it ...another 2-3 SANFL match's

The Club cannot afford for him to break down again .....he's on a 5 year Contract

How good is it to finally get to watch them play.

Would his return in, say, a month, spell the end for Mingey?

Yes, all the banter aside, haven’t been this excited for a rookie crop* in years

* not Ward

IMO Milera will start at HB, moreso than Wing .....maybe Wing in the 2nd half of the season, but it would be the same role Dawson plays

Last year Dawson defensive wing (Hinges role) .....this year offensive wing for Dawson

But yes ....potentially some impact, just depends on how Hinge starts the year

Has everyone got a contingency plan if we don’t get the rookies we need? I know we will probably get names, but just incase…

Yep

Yes. I've got renditions for every possible rookie outcome.

I can't wait to see Gibcus play he has an aura about him already I think he will perform much better Supercoach wise than many think.

I watched most of his games last year.
If he was a better kick he would have been pick 1.
Elite at everything else.
Intercept marks alone should see him average decent.

I reckon that might not even be enough…

That will improve he was much cleaner in the second half of the practice match. He will know he needs to get in the hands of the runners Short/Rioli and any mids there at the time and not take it on himself.

 

[HTPunter]

Probs been done to death, but JHF = Yep or Nup (and reasons).

Yep if you run him on field - and you have room for 3 rookies on field.

He's my 3rd picked out of Daicos, Ward and him though.

 

[Axly]

Seeing a lot less teams with Ralphsmith of late.

People getting off for cheaper rookies?

 

[Northernsoul74]

His nab scores were fine.

 

[Duckworthy]

Realistically, 30-60 range you think?

 

[JT_the_Man]

Realistically, 30-60 range you think?

Yeah, slow burn.

 

[toxic]

Realistically, 30-60 range you think?

Will need a 4goal spike game

 

[Duckworthy]

Will need a 4goal spike game

Think I'll pass. Young KPF type still getting back into it after a tough run with knees

 

[timtimtim]

Yeah, slow burn.

Jones 2.0

But he’s a warm body that’s priced at 124k so
