I think he was posting positive McDonagh news there, and not Ridley, seeing he featured in both tweets.

But wasn't he in the B team?

He plays for Essendon, yeah.

I think so, Brisbane supporters probably know more about him considering he dislocated his shoulder more times than he's played games for us.

Competition is fairly weak for him for a wing or half back role, Hamil, McPherson, Sholl training with the B team, Milera should play but think hes incredibly overrated. Sounds like Dawson wants to play inside but probably plays Wing/Mid. Seedsman still having concussion issues from almost 2 months ago, unsure how long hes out for.

Hinge's disposal is pretty impressive from memory, and his running was getting to AFL standard by the time he left. Too many injuries at bad times ruined his time with us, plus we were trying to play him more as a man defender because of list needs which I'm not convinced was a best use of his strengths. Not sure what Adelaide plans to do, but if he's on a wing he'd definitely be interesting.

Reckon theyll play Will Kelly to be honest, arguably an even more handy addition.

Out till Round 5/6

Collingwood fullback options:
Charlie Dean DEF $102,400
Will Kelly FWD/DEF $123,900

Other would be Moore; Howe as more lockdown option.

will Kelly has been playing forward all preseason they want him to play forward

I rate Dean as a 3rd or 4th defender hes going to get destroyed if hes asked to play FB/CHB.

Where does Magden fit in ?

 

[Couch Coach]

Where does Magden for in ?

Round 1 2021 was:
Maynard Roughead Madgen
Crisp Moore Howe

So I was assuming Madge stayed in the back six with either an extra tall coming in (Dean, Kelly) or a small/medium which would result in Howe & Moore being more lockdown oriented. Madge not being SC relevant as he is already a lockdown type.

IQ & Pendles need to fit in somewhere so maybe Howe , Magden , Moore + a rotating 4-5.

No idea to be honest 😀

Excellent left peg on him, got some good size about him as well. Posted it elsewhere but I'd absolutely pay the premium on him if he's fit and playing HB or wing. Crows actually could use a couple more genuine rebounding types, imo.

Hed have played plenty last year if he didnt get injured, is in my side right now their rebounders arent that good for mine, Seedsman still dealing with Concussion issues opens up a prime wing spot aswell

Dawson + Milera + Hinge , is that going OTT on Crows players in defense?

I’ve never heard of it, but just did some Googling.

I do tend to like a lot of posts though, sometimes even out of habit!
