Allen is versatile which is a nice string to his bow.
Genuine full forwards are hard to come by and I believe Allen is the obvious replacement for JK.
His development seems to reflect a move to be JK`s replacement.
When JK gets managed this year I am betting that it will be Oscar in the goals square but time will tell.
I read that Brander has been trialling on a wing ?? Interesting if true. He was recruited as a swingman so wouldn`t rule anything out.
Not sure about where Vardy is at. Reckon he will play more WAFL than league. At least he has his 2018 medal and memories. Bit like Stuart Dew in his last game for Hawthorn. Right time right place.

Has Bucks cracked a smile yet ???
Has Jaidyn Stephenson landed any quaddies recently ??
Has Beams paid off his gambling debts yet ???
Is Adam Treloar's engagement to a woman real ??
Is it true that Maynard plans to wear one of those protective jockey vests next time he comes up against "flying Ryan"
=)) :D :P

My mail is that the footage we saw on tv re JK and Schofield going full bore at one another was for them to show the incumbents and young blokes that is the sort of intensity you need to bring to break in to the team and be successful.
I am liking what i am seeing out of Mineral Resources Park. =D>
Down at Cockburn however ???
You really are living up to your name Spinner. He has to put spin on it to make it sound so good for the young fellas. Cant wait for the season to start...And after one round for the AFLW to finish
Just completed the 2k time trial, was quicker than his time last year, he'll be cherry ripe for round 1.
The silky smooth Pendles is looking sensational and primed for another big season. Nobody can deny the silky skills of our champion captain. (Well, maybe detenator will try another corny crack at comedy, but that's to be expected, small things amuse small minds ;) )
Going into season 2020:
Has:
Played 301 Games.
Premiership Player: 2010
Norm Smith Medal: 2010
6× All-Australian Team: 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2019
3× AFL ANZAC Day Medal: 2010, 2011, 2019 (Tied record)
5× Copeland Trophy: 2011, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016
Most Brownlow votes from a Collingwood player
Top ten for total Brownlow votes. (He's 9th).
Collingwood Captain 2014–Current
Needs:
5 games to pass S. Coventry (153) for second place for most games as club captain.
6 games on the MCG to have the most games played at the venue.
6 games to pass G. Coventry (306) for second place at the club.
12 games to pass Buckley (161) for most games as club captain.
13 games to pass T. Shaw (313) for the club record.
8 more Brownlow votes to pass Leigh Matthews as the highest total vote winner without winning the medal.*
*(Depending on Joel Selwood votes)
16 more Brownlow votes to enter the top 5 for total votes.**
**(Depending on Joel Selwood and Dangerfield votes)

Champion player champion bloke.
Great stats too by you. (surprisingly)
But you missed out the most important stat of all. His WAG would be in the best top 10 WAGs of all time to grace the Brownlow red carpet. :x

Beams will announce his retirement this week.
The emotion has simmered and the players are in preservation mode.
It will be an exhibition match at best.
AFL too slow to put something forward.

Lot more pleasurable to listen to as opposed to "mumbles" Pavlich. :D
But the 32-year-old is keen to temper expectations.
"I know there has been a crew who have reported that I said I am flying. I am definitely not flying," Kennedy said.
"And
(they) have said that it's the best pre-season I have had. It's
definitely not the best pre-season I have had because I am 32 years old.
"I
am at that stage where it's just been nice to do all the training -
being out there with the boys instead of sitting up in the cardio room
looking out the window.
"I am still at the back of every pack when we do running, so I am not as fit as I used to be."

Be interesting to see how they will turn it around. Not sure they will be able to sell $600 season memberships when you can walk up and pick your seat on the day.
Rick Hart on radio this morning said they should be in a position to challenge in 3 to 4 years. Patience required.
I am suggesting Freo cannot afford for "brand Fyfe " to go down otherwise the balance sheet will continue to be in red ink. [-X
If he wanted a game yes......As others have stated, if he gets 12-15 games this year it'd be a bonus. The Waste Australian an Channel 7 (are they separate entities anymore??) both inferred that he was flying..He isn't, hes struggling through..he wont play a full season.....and he wont have a major impact on a lot of games...
Hope JK hasn't gone on one year too long. One of his underrated stats was his ability to be a workhorse and to apply tackling pressure. To me he looks and sounds like an "old" 32 year old.
Hope he proves me wrong.

Worth watching! It's Abletts 15th game and the WA commentators are calling him Geoff ))

Premiership favorites now no doubt 8-|
Just about everyone in JK's position is sore before, during and after the game.
