Oops! Brian Lake got photographed at the Caulfield Cup doing a line in a dunny. Apparently on the Herald Sun site but I can't get behind the paywall.

He certainly needs help, his life is getting worse by the minute.

With all due respect, I don’t think it goes to show that at all.

At least Howard is Footscray VFL premiership hero (long live that shank) Howard. Fuller can't even say that.
Re: Following our ex's...................
Declan Hamilton was the worst I seen in my 20 years watching the dogs. I reckon even worse than Fuller. I tend to give the young ones a long time to prove themselves. Could never understand what recruitment team saw in either but at least Fuller could boot the ball long. Whenever ball was within vicinity of Hamilton I would inwardly groan thinking here comes a turnover/weak effort/dinky not do clever pass/ (insert other infuriating play).

He was tiny as well which gave him no body strength at all , he just waited to be given the ball most of the time.
I too saw nothing in him and agree with you.

average 16 disposals, 40 goals across 3 seasons.
Saw him play in the 2016 VFL final, shanked the ball and lots of turnovers. Never demanded the ball all seemed a player lacking confidence in his footy.
In hindsight we should have cut him after the 2nd year. I hope the club learns to cut the list deeper and not have too many list cloggers.
2013 was a terrible year and unlucky for recruiting - apart from Bonts... no one else stands out on the list. Crameri just had bad run of injuries and plagued by essendons drug scandal.

Very interesting read. Adelaide has done surprisingly well from their limited opportunites. Freo are in "rebuild" as basically none of their players have made it from that period.
Ben brown sigh... :(

I would lament Ben Brown as for us he would be playing ruck and would probably be delisted or traded by now.:D

I thought Crameri was a great recruit, kicking 37 goals in 2014 and 32 in 2015. He missed the premiership year due to drug cheating and then was injured for the whole year in 2017

Kieran Collins has signed with the Northern Blues. Played alongside Weitering in the Dandenong defence in his underage year, they are most likely having a look at him for a year and then potentially reuniting the pair.
It's curious to me that he would sign with a VFL team now, rather than put his name up in the Roookie draft. It obvioulsy means the phones aren't running hot, but if a clubs plans don't go to fruition they might be looking at an emergency huge unit defender.

Might also indicate that Goddard will most likely get a spot there as the depth KPD with history of injuries.

I think this is pretty common. Pre-seasons are starting this or next week so you need to commit to a team by now with the obvious understanding that your preference is to be picked up by an AFL club.
