If Goddard plays off of scratch, I find it staggering that he is not pursuing the pro-ranks already.


Imagine walking 18 holes with that drip, good lord...

Had his turn


With Goddard, he's not a fit for us because we've already got those. For everyone else, why wouldn't he be looked at? I think bigger picture though, treating the older guys with more respect if they have something to offer, is better than jettisoning them out for pick 80!

I think most teams have coverage for HB Flankers. Probably the easiest position to feel on your list & the perfect position to blood young players.
If you can keep your head when all around you have lost theirs, then you probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation.

I think you're missing my point. Take Goddard out of it. We're throwing these guys to the scrapheap too early just so we can keep pick 75!

Was offered a new contract aswell.
Was hoping he would stay on in some role as Draper has come on in leaps and bounds under his tutelage

It would appear we have some interest in former Freo big man Zac Clarke.

I doubt he would be interested

As good as done Jim.

Clearly you follow us closely enough to know we don't need kids, so why the hell would we trade away Walsh to get who knows what 18 yo's when we are NOT targeting the draft - as mentioned ad nauseum by our recruitment team? We clearly need bigger seasoned bodies, which we've brought in via the trade period - again, as mentioned we would do via our recruitment team.

I'd be more worried about your mob if I were you.



Oh look

Guess who toured Carlton today

:roll: ;)

@gadj1976


@armpit? Yes, what were you saying?

:-) Clearly I'm taking the pi$$ mate, all good. Play on. I enjoy the banter, so keep it up.

Still purchased pick 19 , realised they need more talent now, didn't go far enough but they realised pick 1 and 599 was a shit hand.
