Re: Northern Blues vs. Box Hill Hawks on Sat, Reply #15 – August 23, 2014, 03:43:55 pm Only thing I've learnt today is Watson can actually play forward. He's looked good from the world's most limited opportunities imaginable. NB's were hopeless. Quote Selected
Re: Northern Blues vs. Box Hill Hawks on Sat, Reply #16 – August 23, 2014, 03:53:56 pm Hopeless was being very polite. Hawthorn's second stringers dominate the VFL, ours struggle to have much impact. Our list situation isn't just bad, it's panic-station crisis levels. Quote Selected Last Edit: August 23, 2014, 03:56:37 pm by Professer E

Our list situation isn't just bad, it's panic-station crisis levels.To be fair alot of our list is watching from the stands. A big injury list in the seniors equates to bugger all left in the VFL. We've done well lately, considering the injuries, at least until last night. Quote Selected
Re: Northern Blues vs. Box Hill Hawks on Sat, Reply #18 – August 23, 2014, 04:32:16 pm Watson, if he could ever get motivated might have a role to play. The younger Ciaran is a good size and has something about him, but gees he is as raw as sushi. Quote Selected

Gotta look at the lists of Hawthorn, Geelong, Port, Sydney IMO. Then try to pick the eyes out of gun young talent at GWS and Gold Coast.Grimley at 199cm being mobile, good skill set, good mark and has mongrel. Must chase along with Jaksch to play the swingman role. Id actually look at Jaksch for CHB with Rowe at FB. Jamison the 3rd tall perhaps to provide help but either way his body wont hold up much longer IMO.Membrey from the Swans also. Woodward is quite a powerful unit. Quick and good skills. We need this. I think the Hawks would be mad to get rid of him and Grimley but id be keen on both. Quote Selected
