I really hope we continue playing both Sweet and Dante in the same team. It really works well, despite Dante not having a mind blowing stat sheet.

Do we look to pick up Jack's twin in a year or so? Might help to retain Jack Whitlock and Joe Berry from the inevitable go-home factor, while also providing a replacement for Aliir and Rategolea when their time does come. Considering he isn't getting a game for North of all teams, he might become cheaper than the pick 27 they used to draft him.

Yes I said it, could we have better depth and the likes you bet you we could, could we have drafted better with picks used and the likes last few years, again yes we could.
However and its a big however if we won those 5 games we lost by under a goal we would be sitting 3rd on the ladder if we beat kangas today.

Big if's I know but im just saying its not all doom and gloom, if we can really get the best out of the butters trade (especially if he chose money at richmond) our rebuild wouldnt be as long as many of us like to think it will take

Only time will tell but fingers crossed over the next few months.

I dont want to pay for kayo for it.

3 games, 5 years on our list.

Had a 13 disposal, 3 goal game in 2019 which was his last year on the list.

Turned into a very good AFL defender, premiership player.

What went wrong? I recall him being suspended more than once.

How in gods name did we allow him to slip to West Coast??!!?

I’ve seen plenty of talk amongst our fans about how the list isn’t good enough to push high up the ladder, which confuses me. Our midfield is great with the hornet, butters and rozee and sweet playing beautifully. Our forward line has plenty of potential with a potential Coleman medalist in Mitch, and small forwards/half forwards who do their jobs great (durdin, McKinlay when healthy, SPP, Richard’s), and our defence has been among the comps best despite many injuries and lack of stars (bar Aliir). My point is that when healthy, we can definitely win some of the games we lost this year, and make a push to wildcard, and the injuries have shown that the depth isnt too bad. Thoughts?

In recent memory it's been Robbie Gray and Zac that have worn it, which made me think maybe Berry? (Ignoring the fact he's already in Houston's old 5 jumper)
