#2 Big Sammy Draper (from May 2024)

There is only a few players in our list who I was be upset if they lost. Draper isn’t one of them

Cool if he stays, but no way should we be giving him a long term big money contract

Why do you say that? Brad showed that he’s more than happy to play both Draper and Bryan in the same team, gave Bryan plenty of ruck minutes start of this season, and considers Draper more a ruck/forward hybrid (especially now he’s developed his super-accurate around the corner kicking style!)

There’s a bunch of clubs looking for a number 1 ruck.

Bryan’s definetly one of the better prospects imho that don’t have that gig

They might intend to use May as a forward/ruck option.

Joe Daniher in retirement?

I think for the first time in a while we’re heading in the right direction. Offloaded some ■■■■■■■■ in management/admin positions, but it’s going to take time to undo the damage wrought.

Every club is trying to improve so it’s also about whether we can outpace them. The club has done little to earn our faith in this respect but hopefully we keep giving the young guys a go and commit to a proper list build rather than trying to patch holes and stay mid table.

Watching the ball movement of an underperforming Bears and a Crows team given an armchair ride by the maggots still shows how far we’re off the pace. They run run run.

They do.

so who needs to provide that in our side, but doesn’t or can’t?

Fix that and we will be a vastly different side.

a lot of the stories out in the media seem to be as usual , pure speculation , but ruptured Achilles is a very wicked injury and we need to be a bit careful how far we go with any offers

With Reid locked away, Draper is next.
maybe save that announcement for the next loss.

Destroyed Nic Nat didn’t it?
