Who needs Oscar Allen and Mitch Lewis when you can sign Wade Derkson.

Free farken Wade Derksen

The Giants are flying, had injuries and suspensions and still didn't play the man.

Let Tim Lamb land his big fish!

The Giants have Derksen playing as a defender.

Played on the weekend in the VFL as a CHB.

We do love a defender, who becomes a forward because our forward line is shit, but then becomes a defender again because he's a shit forward, but then sometimes goes forward again because our forward line is still shit.

We're very versatile.

I don’t get the big deal about Oscar Allen

 

[SugarHealey]

Isn’t that what Adams has been primed for? To play as a KPB? We will also still have Lever, throw in a mature defender to fill the void for a year or 3.

Connor O Sullivan is going alright in his 2nd year.

Lever has become a part of our problem, too slow in offence play-making, as is Salem. Too safe and too slow... both of them.

 

[SugarHealey]

Our leadership hasn't exactly kept the house in order over the past 3 years.

To lead, the leaders have to understand when poor negative attitudes are creeping in.

Arrogance can creep into the club, under the moustache of the leaders themselves. Not realising they are a part of the problem themselves.

Our boys got ahead of themselves in a big way, and in so doing, our best players stopped learning and improving.
We lost 3 of our potentially best years from our most senior players. Wasted and all gone by the wayside.

They are all in the twilight of the careers now, and are quickly being overtaken by opposition players who are the new boys in town.

 

[SugarHealey]

At the moment we have May, Lever, and Petty plus TMac. May and TMac have one year left tops. Lever is not in this conversation because he is an intercept defender.

I think I'd prefer to hang my hat on a new defensive interceptor, like Turner.
Lever is sooo one dimensional, and is really bog average 1 on 1...

 

[SugarHealey]

Kozzy is gone, Trac is probably gone,

These ARE the 2 players who are most important for us, right now. the wrong ones for trading out.

Oli and Fritsch are the two best trade options... that will help us on our future quest.

 

[SugarHealey]

We also have Turner and JVR who played as KP defenders as juniors.

That's interesting as I can see a potential key defender in JvR. He can play at either end imv.
