Surely he's not Vardy style bad? But probably even behind Kersten IMO.

Vardy is good Imo, just cant get his body right.

and yeh was just listing the rucks... Up fwd, Hawkins, Clark, easily ahead, then fighting it with Vardy, kersten, walker and now Stanley all for that last spot.

Stanley is a horrible ruck and defender.

I think you'll run with HMac/Simpson#1, Blicavs as the 2nd ruck to whoever gets the #1 role. Blicavs playing in defence/wing when not in the ruck.

Stanley's only hope is to become the 3rd forward. Vardy, Kersten, Walker and Stanley fighting for one spot. I'd probably have Stanley in 2nd spot for that role behind Kersten. Vardy haven't seen enough of to comment, but may be ahead of Stanley. Stanley ahead of Walker.

It might be a reflection of how little talent Geelong thinks is in this year's draft.

Blicavs day as a ruck are long gone, horrible, horrible ruckman. Only played there in the semi cause our first 3 choices were all injured.

i see blicavs being a long term key defender when lonergan retires at the end of 2016.

he looked really good there. So in defence Stanley currently behind Taylor, lonners, rivers, blicavs...

makes no sense to me why we picked him up. Ah well.

back to Bundy talks...... With Eski out that leaves 3 legit talks and 2 interested parties.

3 interested parties. I haven't given up all hope just yet. Just trying to come up with something that works for us both.


edit: Agree entirely on your summary of Blicavs, except I think he'll continue to pinch hit in the ruck. Don't think you'll play both Simpson and HMac in the same team too much. Blicavs is horrible in the ruck, but better than Walker and Stanley. Can see him playing 5 mins a quarter in the ruck to give the #1 a rest.

Surely your not throwing pick 21 at someone whos fighting for a spot in the VFL.

Will be playing seniors week 1 id imagine

How does that make any sense?

as Eski said maybe its Geelong not rating the draft. Just because they rate Stanley better than their 21st best kid doesn't mean hes an automatic best 22 player.

as with all talls (especially Geelong ones) there will definitely be injuries at some point so he'll get his chance. But i really don't think he's in our best 22.

I dont know i would just imagine to be giving up a pick so high for him i doubt they would plan on playing him in the VFL. NFI really though, hes shown glimpses of what he can produce perhaps the Cats are backing in they can get a more consistent effort out of him.

I reckon Eski is smack on - wells not loving the draft, may as well grab a player who they feel would be better than anyone available in the live draft at that pick.

in glad we'll at least have depth talls who have afl experience. Blicavs walker and Mitch brown leading the ruck/fwd brigade in any semi final is disasterous.

I have Stanley, apparently I'm the only one who rates him but he'll definitely be a 2nd/3rd mobile forward and pinch hit through the ruck if necessary. His game against Freo this year convinced me he'll be solid.

Oh im a fan too. The glimpses ive seen reckon hes got a spot in the league. Im even more confident now the Cats have targeted him

Will be interesting to see how he goes

IMO he's just an easy player to talk shit about because of how far back he's come from but at the end of the day he's an excellent mark, lightning quick and actually a fairly reasonable kick of the footy.

Could see Geelong operating with Hmac or Simmo in the ruck, Clark at CHF, Hawk at FF and Stanley as the third tall who can go pinch hit in the ruck. Considering he had 3 clubs after him and the Cats convinced him to go to them they've obviously told him they see a role for him.
