I'm assuming you saw the vision that Dan Gorringe showed on his profile. That looked like utter garbage. Someone needs to tear someone a new one me thinks! Defs not up to AFL standard.

Honestly, that kick that ended up near where they'd sell the hotdogs was comical...

Worst still there was no intensity or match like conditions, you would cop mistakes if that was the case.

Don’t forget the other signing.

Former GWS big man Wade Derksen won the other list spot after impressing over the summer.

Derksen, 24, never played a game at the Giants after joining via the 2022 mid-season draft.

Sam Walsh with an 8 year contract extension.

This should end well.

That is fair, retiring a 5 time premiership player is a good way to go out.

Great? No. He's a sound contributor but he's not a "great" player.

Agreed, I watched this draft year with a bit of interest, didn't think he was the number one pick then, definitely don't think it now.

Very good accumulator who doesn't do as much damage as he should with his disposal count. By all accounts a great team man and should be the next captain, but 8 years to a bloke with a dodgy back is nuts.

What is the definition of great though?
B&F winner
AA honours
4th in a Brownlow

Pretty good for a 25 year old
I reckon he’d be even better if he played in a good side
