Discussion 2025: AFL SuperCoach Discussion

[Pesci001]

Still haven't bought my whiteboard but I think they have one to many to rotate through their F line with ANB , Keays , Peatling , Rachele , Rankine , Soligo etc

Seemingly keen to play the 4 marking targets forward.

Certainly be a interesting 22 (23) if everyone is available.

van Berlo on the News tonight mentioned they were going to trial a few things tonight but didn't elaborate

Yeah, I agree. It will be interesting
Hopefully the Crows are competitive this season.
Michalanney's thumb injury. Any idea when he could be back?

They are confident that Rankine becomes the most dangerous mid in the comp and if the forward line performs consistently the Crows media will go into meltdown

I love Zorko but his now 36. Alarms ringing all over the joint

On a side note Peatlings disposal is horrendous running at 50 % for the whole game

Not saying his not doing a great job but at 36 years old can he deliver like last season?

Zorko will be good until Coleman comes back, then duties will be shared. High risk, could be high reward. Not for me tho.

60dt/77sc, Imagine if he cleaned it up. Plenty of room for improvement.

Less midfield minutes ideally means less exposure to contact injury situations leaving non contact injuries- calf, etc if playing the cheap kicks down back role which reduces the “perceived risk” around his age bracket and price tag in comparison to a midfielder, etc. Mature age recruit who started his AFL career at 23. Averaged just shy of 8 marks (most total marks in 2024) so could match it again if he is still fed the same amount of ball.

They may also be in the position to rest Zorko rather than be chasing all season.

this is the risk how many does he play at the start you get 5 or six might be ok point wise

Draper 61 off 38% tog, been a real spark through their midfield.
