Exactly Refer to my previous post The lack of midfielders coming through is a concern |

This was supposed to come from Dow and O'Brien - at this stage neither of these picks can be classified as a success, happy to give them more time but no more than another season to step up. |

I prefer to compare Teague's stats at Carton. His W/L ratio is about the same as it was for him in 2019, we haven't gone forwards. You expect us to? You expect this suddenly leap forward to entrench us in the 8 so quickly? Really? 12-12, 24 games, essentially played just over a real season. Ratts won 10 in his first year and didn't have top contend with this type of year that favors the very established sides with high established structures. Takes alot of work to get to that level of structure unfortunately otherwise we'd entrenched in the 8. Bit hard to work on it this year as you can only work with 8 players at a time on the training track. Many forget that. This year is highly advantageous to very established sides for that reason, as Hodge said this morning. Sides with ingrained structures. It's why the Pies can forever miss top players but not miss a beat making GF's and PF's with a number of good ones missing. We are still working to establish that and not alot of chance to improve on it on the training track. Be thankful we are talking finals still, even if we miss out, rather than the no.1 draft pick. |

Jim McAdam looks like a player Judging by this year I assume you watch other games I bet Sos or anyone else on our recruiting staff didn’t know who he was Hopefully Austin learns from the clubs past mistakes And looks over the minor leagues with a fine tooth comb We had him only because Adelaide wanted him so we could get the Gov We gave away two more potential mids on top of this because we gave away 2 picks in the 20s SOs’ legacy is turning to faeces The signs were there in 2018 that our midfield needed more depth Poor recruiting trading and list management kills ya in the end |

Keogh, I think you are fighting a bit of a straw man argument here, I don’t see much evidence internally from the club or externally with our own supporters who think we are any better than what we are. We have some good talent, some holes and also some unknowns. The trick is now to build on it, after 2012 we got Malty who destroyed anything remaining good in the list. We don’t want or need to do that again. I think where we are now we look to do trades and get in free agents to strengthen the side on a case by case basis. All of Zac Williams, Papley and Crouch should be looked at and would help us. Setterfield has certainly improved, whether he ends up being a gun remains to be seen but his trajectory has been good, and his tackling numbers have been great. Plowman does have some limitations but is generally very solid. If I or others were overrating us wouldn’t of we been expecting finals? We are about where I expect us to be and know for us to improve further it won’t just happen, we all knew we lacked midfield depth start of season, that hasn’t changed. With many of our younger ones, like Dow and O’Brien they’d want to be showing something soon otherwise they will be out of the system within a year or 2. Bit rough to say we are worse than last year and only compare to 2nd half of last year. Does that mean we should be top 4? But overall i think to get better we need missing pieces which don’t exist on the list currently. |

Would you give Plowman a 3 year deal? |

Three hour deal would be too long. |

keogh wrote: Would you give Plowman a 3 year deal? I think on the list of our issues that is very low. I’m fine with Plowman really, seems he’s a whipping boy whenever we lose though for some. I’m sure he’s not on huge money and if not with us he’d be on an AFL list in 3 years time somewhere. Polson getting a 2 year deal in 2018 is way more confusing to me. Also the extended deals we got for LOB and even Cuningham, though I think the logic was to try and get some continuity in the list and they wouldn’t be on big bucks, and if they are no good by the end of their contracted time we can delist or trade. Most of the other younger ones we still need to sift through. At least we are competitive now so will be more attractive to trade and free agency targets. |

What a surprise. After a month of exceptional form, Plowman was undroppable.  He didn't have a great game but he only conceded 2 goals when the delivery was lace out. Perhaps your expectations are a bit unrealistic. |

That’s because we don’t have a small lock down defender on our list. List being the operative word here - management would be the other. |

collingwood game plan to good/ successful for our team.They highlighted a weakness in our defence plowman v stephenson who is to quick and left space open for stephenson to lead into .(blame our team defence to help lachie but it didn't come). |

So not Plowman’s fault that Stephenson too quick for him. So fault of match committee/coach for going with that match up then. Please then tell us what type of player is a Plowman best suited to, there are quite a few of us on this forum that would like to know.
