FTWinderlich · July 23, 2019, 9:41am

We shoulda picked Oliver

Rhino-D · July 23, 2019, 9:42am

Sack Dodoro.

IceTemple · July 23, 2019, 9:52am

It would be if they were the same sort of player.

He won a contest.

As master of his own domain.

Given we needed a midfielder and Oliver was taken before we had a chance to grab him, these are then next group of smalls that were taken:

Hopper (Never had a chance, as the Giants were always gonna take him)

8 Ah Chee (Who? Classic GCS pick)

11 Milera (good but meh)

13 Kennedy (lol)

A few guys who were never really in the top 5 convo
15 Rioli
18 Gresham
20 Fiorini

Parish has always been the correct decision based on his talent and our needs in a draft that wasn’t exactly overflowing with midfield talent.

Rhino-D · July 23, 2019, 10:59am

They’re both mids of the midfieldy variety.

Mr_Sunbury_1 · July 23, 2019, 11:15am

I believe two others are imminent.

Chris_1993 · July 23, 2019, 10:54pm

Baguley and Myers?

Azza78 · July 23, 2019, 11:22pm

Yep, same.

Bomber-A · July 23, 2019, 11:24pm

2 years is better than leaving… but that 2 years will go quick and we gonna be in the same position in July 2021

Alan_Noonan_10 · July 24, 2019, 12:33am

He’d be backing himself to up his game to be able to ask for more money…and in two years, a couple of big contracts will be all but finished (Hooker and Hurley).

Contracts are two-way streets.

WindsockBoy · July 24, 2019, 12:35am

I hope and expect to be in a better position than 7th on the ladder in July 2021.

Don’t stress- are you sure you’re not Nino?

Bomb_Doe · July 24, 2019, 12:35am

it’ll be a win win for Darcy and the club if he does that

J1018 · July 28, 2019, 1:29pm

19 disposals
4 tackles
5 i50s
Clutch goal
Absolute gun

theDJR · July 28, 2019, 2:59pm

McAvaney translation: he does like a “clutch goal”, doesn’t he?

Lonewanderer · July 28, 2019, 9:54pm

Whats going on with his game time?

Last 4 weeks now he has been last or second last in game time out of every player on the ground.

He was really great in that 3rd qtr last night but then sat the majority of the 4th on the pine…

Weird.

Clone_Hirdy · July 28, 2019, 9:57pm

I’d say being managed.

smooth · July 28, 2019, 10:40pm

When he took that mark in the 3rd to have the shot at goal, I knew he would kick it. He doesn’t freeze in the big moments.
