There’s really about Owens’ game that resembles Jack Gunston. Really strange observation.

He's sort of like Jeremy Cameron in that he can play both forward as a true scoring threat and move into the midfield as well but not really like him either. He's a unique player. More like a tall forward version of Dusty maybe?

Actually Adam Goodes in that he does it all from ruck to midfield and everything in-between.

Imagine how well he’d be going if he wasn’t suffering from those bloody 2nd year blues

Dermis’s insights are like my golf game off the tee, either right on the money, or completely off the mark, two fairways over or embedded in someone’s windshield

Stocker and Byrnes have played every match this year and are set to score contract extensions, but Coffield has not played a senior game since round 23, 2021. A pre-season ACL rupture wiped out his 2022 season, and a persistent calf injury has sidelined him this year.
Discussions on a new deal for the top-10 draftee are yet to start, according to a source, while Clark, who is averaging career-best numbers with more midfield exposure, wanted to become a Kangaroo last year – but was held to his contract.
Gresham has so far resisted the temptation to explore his options, of which there would be many, and the parties opened dialogue during St Kilda’s mid-season break.

I tried but when it got to 10 hours of highlights I gave up

Mitch doesn’t play like anyone..he’s unique!

Crap year for Coffield to need to negotiate.

 

[sammm]

Crap year for Coffield to need to negotiate.

he might not get more than 300k won't have played for over 1.5 years.

 

[botts]

he might not get more than 300k won't have played for over 1.5 years.

He will get offers from other clubs. Gonna be really interesting to see what he does

It was interesting that Ross said he thought that the team was currently playing to its full potential. I suspect there will be some big list changes this off-season.

Close to full potential, anyway.
Thought that was a very interesting comment.
They know what has to be done list-wise.
