2019 NEAFL discussion thread

[707]

Best Players:?
J. Rose, J. Amartey, R. Stoddart, B. Ronke, J. Rowbottom

Maybe preparing us for Rose returning to seniors?

No love for Cameron despite decent stats. Knoll looks to have had an easy ride as Brisbane do not appear to have played any rucks.

I'm particularly pleased to see Ronke among our best. If he regains enough of the spark he had last season he's got a lot to offer.

Just shows how a dominant midfield can compensate for a lack of hit outs.

Heretic!

Look at the Pies. Grundy won the hit outs in all games bar one yet they are only +1 in overall clearances according to AFL.com

mw, I think people just don't seem to get your humour.

Rose the only Swan to score NEAFL MVP votes with 4.

[rickmat]

Still news on McLean, not on injured list. WTF is going on with this recruit. NEAFL players get very little exposure or update.

Really not sure what Cameron has to do? Nearly twice as many possessions, a whole 3 less hit outs, infinitely more marks and twice as many goals and Knoll gets more love?

What's that saying, the grassy is always greener?

How come Knoll doesn’t wear his seniors number in the ressies?

[ugg]

Usually for the top ups the lower numbers (48-54) are for the smaller players and the bigger ones get 58-60. I don’t think Knoll would fit in a 48

McLean’s been playing in 60 until now, but looks like the Swans have managed to get replacements for the old Jake Brown 41s
