Both players stiff to miss out on granny berths but as always in such cases they may be considering a future elsewhere.

Byrnes would be a good fit for us. 27yo hard bodied small mid/forward with finals/flag experience.

Goldsack also has some good attributes and has direct links to Neeld.

Thoughts?

I dont mind th eidea/concept of a Byrnnes type. I think too many people are shooting for the moon. Currently we're just the other side of crap. We arent going to turn into a take-on-all -killer typ

Good news everyone. We have a small forward. So in total, we have one small forward.

Don't want to pay overs too much for older players. Bargains is what we need.

We still have to find our own young small forwards. I'm also running short of belief with Wonna's dedication. Lawrence I like so Far.

We quickly have to find our mosquito squadron.

Byrnes is a hack. Goldsack may be a good fit.

I quite like Goldsack as a player (good size, strong and the right age for us) but I don't know where he would fit in our backline. No doubt Mark Neeld would some views on this.

I'm not keen on Byrnes. Too old for us, and I'd prefer to play Aaron Davey as a small forward and develop a youngster (Lawrence?) for that role in the longer term.

Having a good physique does not necessarily mean "hard bodied".

He looks big enough but is more of an outside player, he can go in hard, but that is not his forte.

I think there are better options for us.

Such as? Who's going to kick 35+ goals for us next season and pinch hit on the ball?

Davey would seem the clear choice but his form is a major worry.

I am not exactly sure who is another choice, as I have not spent time thinking about it, however I dont really rate him, so I would love you to put up some other choices. Not sure who else is available.

I would like to have Davey stay in the forward line and I would also like to see what the new coaches can do with our current crop of platers.

If there was a really good option out there I am all for a trade, but not Byrnes for me.

Goldsack has some currency. Depends on what we could get him for. Could Goldsack make our best 22? Not interested in trading for depth players.

Byrnes is okay, but not really what we need.

BUMP

Goldsack would be a great fit for us partic if we lose Rivers. Can play fwd and back is a hard body and goes at it hard.

Can see why Neeld would be interested. And wouldn't cost us an arm and a leg. Played a terrific game last night against WCE

Byrnes looked good today in the VFL against Werribee. Mainly because he can take a mark and kick to a target successfully.

Not bad attributes for a footballer. Seriously though one of our biggest problems i reckon is how poor our field kicking is. It is one of the reasons Watts stands out.

    CONSISTENCY by The Oracle

    "I think we have got a team that can win a premiership, and if we get in this year, I don't think there is a team that is going to want to play us. This year is not a write-off, I don't concede that. Not at all." — Collingwood President Jeff Browne. I love this sort of optimism from the Magpie President after his club’s eleven goal defeat at the hands of the fast rising Hawks. It’s consistent with the fighting spirit of the club that won last year’s flag.  I only wish I could say the s

    FEARS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne’s worst fears about the absence of Max Gawn were realised when it received a shellacking from Fremantle’s ruckmen Sean Darcy and Luke Jackson who dominated the hit out tally in their game at Optus Stadium on Sunday by a massive 47 to 19. As a result, the 50-point deficit at the end of the game proved to be a loss that was long foreseen that was two years in the making and demonstrated a complete lack of hindsight and planning from the club. To add insult to injury, Jackson was a D

    PREGAME: Rd 20 vs GWS

    The Demons return to the MCG in Round 20 to take on the GWS Giants and will be hoping the injured Captain Max Gawn is fit to return to his role in the ruck as their season is slipping away. Who comes in and who comes out?
