Is the concern the rest time needed, impact despite triple shot or a little bias to anti vaxx?
On a side note, played 9's tonight, legs felt tired due to having not done internal running, wasn't breathing too hard, yet heart rate hit 193. Noticed this on 8th day when I recommenced running, a very high heart rate, yet day 9 heart rate was normal.
Covid is not the flu, I will give you that.

Will play the devils advocate here a little as I don't read it so bad myself.
Basically it's saying one of him or Elliot will be at every centre bounce meaning he's only got one other guy to compete with. Feel like Elliott is more injury prone (although numbers don't really have him being much worse than DeGoey from a quick glance) and better up forward (DeGoey has the one great year in 2018).
Elliott managed 25 goals and 8 behinds in 13 games last season in comparison to DeGoey who had 23.23 from 20 games. Could argue the midfield move for DeGoey but he still managed to kick 9 goals in the final 11 games where he seemed to get midfield minutes. In the first 9 games he had prior to the move he managed 15 goals, however 6 game against North and another 4 v Carlton - going goalless in 4/9 games to start the season v 4/11 in the back half.
As for his pre-season, prior to him being his typical floggish self, it seemed like he was pretty determined to really improve himself given the work he was doing in the states. I haven't paid much attention but outside of the trial stuff, has he had any setbacks injury wise?
There are a heap of forwards that look pretty tempting this year but nothing form this article really makes me want to put a line through him.

He could work but the midfield role is pretty important, not just CB stuff either, needs to be around the ball. Like most midfielders playing forward, he's as likely to more likely to score from the midfield where he generates significant mismatches instead of drawing elite defenders and he got significant points from his clearance work, tackling and marks which were all significantly up with more midfield time and the extra contests and space that position allows.
Reckon he's a ~95 guy as a 50/50 or worse forward, assuming he stays fit which has been a huge issue for him. That's really not enough given that durability factor and the upside potential others have in their roles at this point. I reckon he's also a good chance to not really make any cash as probably going to be contingent on goals a lot more which makes the likelihood of quiet games significantly higher.
Midfield like he ended the season and that's more like 105 range which definitely makes him tempting at that price despite durability issues.
Of course if I've all but taken Butters, Heeney and Thomas at this point you can be sure it will be Bailey, Bolton and De Goey who go boom
or the Treloar, Martin and Sidebottom trio that I've also ignored to this point

De Goey has missed a fair chunk of games, i recall one being a thumb/hand have others been repeated soft tissue stuff?
Certainly a lot of appeal in Butters, Heeney and Thomas though so there's limited spots. Certainly a heap more fun with all these options.
-------------------
Side note, Maynard mid minutes could be interesting, almost made it as a premium a couple of seasons back before falling away. Priced too high for me but will be interested to see how he goes.

This is one time where the saying "The harder you work, the luckier you get" doesn't work.
Yeah, I'm just looking for any justification for the time we all sink into this stupid game only for the SC gods to skittle our season 3 rounds in and then rub our faces in it for the next 20!
Given previous comments from Fagan have been about Fort easing the load on Oscar, that "back-up" role might equal second ruck in the seniors (and I expect it will, at least until Hipwood returns):
On the possibility of the two playing in the same side, Chris Fagan sounded optimistic.
"It'll be good for Oscar to have an experienced ruckman in the group that can help him out," Fagan said.
"He shouldered a lot of the load for us last year and Darcy's at a good age for ruckman, he's a handy forward and he's going to help us a great deal."

Good info
What percentage will Fort ruck?
With F*gan using the words "support", "back-up" and "help him (McInerney) out", to me doesn't seem a lot.
I'm leaning to starting with McInerney, if I still have doubts about Darcy's fitness before round 1.

If he falls to the 60%-70% ruck time range, he'll more likely be spending time resting forward but obviously getting him out of the middle that much is going to be a big hit on scoring.
Yeah, he is a risk, because of the unkowns that won't be answered until after the season starts.
But it was good to read that F*gan said that Fort is a handy forward, so he doesn't have to rely on rucking to keep his place in the side. Also good that F*gan said McInerney is an improving ruckman, who is a "professional player in terms of his craft, his gym work and his running is second to none". Likely McInernery will be a better player this year to score more SC points.

Is Russia invading Ukraine or was US back Ukraine about to push and shove in ukraine russian population dominated area.
The Brisbane situation looks about as clear as that. Zorko saying Neale will play mids, doesnt know where this other talk coming from of playing other roles (ah, your coach Fagan buddy).
You either go full house plus 1 - Coleman Answerth Berry Rayner Bailey Neale or none.
Thankfully I am not a Lions supporter where it would be more confusing - amazing how few eagles I have had in recent years.
