Players to target at the end of the year



Recommended Posts

If I didn't barrack for MFC I would put Viney behind McRae, Wines, Libba and Bontempelli. Bye the bye Libba senior was in Seminyak this week. Stayed at the Breezes Hotel/Resort.. The weather was fantastic.

Bontempelli has had a few good games, but it's unfair to say that he's proven more than Viney.

Libba is definitely ahead of Viney.

Agree totally at this stage but all 3 are very good footballers

Having said that I think Tyson at his best is as good as any of them, but he is a little bit hot and cold, Wines and Mcrae are playing like 150 gamers consistently, I know it's a topic to avoid on here, I have faith in Jimmy but wow would Wines be handy in our side

Did you go out with him and get a display of his white line fever. Or has he cleaned up his act for good

Viney can burst out of packs with regularity, i havent seen Wines or Macrae do that. Macrae has received alot of flack for possession use.

Viney can run into two players and keep gonig.

He is a rare breed in inside ball

Wines can run into 4 players and keep going.

Viney needs alot of work on his disposal efficiency.

Sorry but your wrong on this one.

Wines ahead of Viney by quite a margin.

That isn't a slight on Viney, he was injured much of last year.

I think Jack Viney needs to work on slowing his game down at times.

McRae finds a lot of space, because he isn't rushed, same as Bontempelli.

After hawks v swans block buster... any players from these lists would be welcome.

Gary Rohan impressed me and if available, would be handy!!!

Rohan showed a lot tonight and there is more to him than pace, certainly worth keeping an eye

Seems much better suited down back. Plays like Blease when forward. All pace, no idea. But down back he has height and strength so can be a really good two way player.

Is Shuey injured? Haven't seen or heard of him for a while... Clearly when he plays well, the Eagles look great... He's a rock solid player and i definitely target him in a trade, if he could come back 100%... Same with Richard Douglas...

Some interesting reading on GWS' border protection worries:

Interesting article! It would be great if Roos was able to secure Cameron and/or Shiel come year's end!

Dayne Beams Is OOC next season and a free agent,

would be interested to see if some big dollars could get his interest, Collingwood might feel pick 3 or 4 is far better than the compo they would get next year if any.

Is he a FA though? I thought it's a min 8 yrs service for FA eligibility? Bumper crop next year either way. Dangerfield the big name, but Scott Selwood would be a terrific addition to our midfield. Not flashy, but can get the ball and is a tackling machine. We enquired about him when we floated pick 2 last year, I wonder if we've kept tabs on him?

His free agency status is currently up in the air, but i'd say there is a very strong chance next years crop the minimum is 6 years because of the huge push for that, which brings Beams right into the mix

I don't think there is a very strong chance at all, even the AFL can't change the rules regarding FA in the year they will implement it. They gave the initial FA a three year heads up.

Okay, fair enough

either way it leaves Beams OOC and as far as I am concerned fair game

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm
