Word is he 100% wants out. Any takers? Two clubs now...

Karnezis?

No!


Pass. Also-ran

Matthew Bate with more a little more pace and a lot more attitude.....not to mention the inflated opinion of himself

Two clubs, hasn't looked likely at either. Would be surprised if anyone picks him up.

[censored] no.

 

I'm sitting on the fence... which coincidentally is the only opponent he's ever beaten. And that was at training. In 2012.

He is an 'extrovert' though. And a good size. Maybe exactly what we need. :wacko:

Remind me, what attributes does he have that may be useful?

not a personal attribute per se but ........ He is a Marcellin product. And they have produced Zaharakis, Shuey, Caddy, Bontempelli, not to mention Montagna, Gavin Brown and Alphonse Gangitano. Just saying.

I thought about Karnezis the other day. Reason being that given we were into Tom Lynch, i figured we were looking for someone to play that 3rd tall forward role with an ability to push up the ground and move through the midfield. Karnezis was the first guy i thought of after Lynch.

However given it sounds as though we will sign Garland, i assume one of he or Dunn will move forward to play that role with Frost coming into the backline. So there for no need for Karnezis.

If Garland does walk though then i'd be interested in Karnezis. What's the word about having a bad attitude?

Not what we need. Pass

Petracca, Harmes, Brayshaw, Vanders and dare I mention him Jack Watts. All above 185cm. All with some pace. All (to varying degrees) can take a mark over head.

Chuck in Hogan and a half decent 2nd ruck and we don't need a specific 3rd tall forward. That would be my plan.

Keep the picks and head to the draft and keep drafting more 188-192cm athletic, strong marking midfield/forward types because as the interchange cap comes down the importance on multiple positions will go up.

Watching him in the VFL finals last week and this week, he looks quite good. I'm not against getting him for the right price.

Could provide a bit of x factor, although he wouldn't be an automatic selection in the best 22.

You don't have to play AFL, it's not the highest of all callings as some on here think it is.

Wouldn’t we all love our lives to be that good that we can play AFL, give it a crack and then go: “Nope. I’ve got something better going for me."

All power to him.

  • PREVIEW: Brisbane

    They really had me fooled when I picked them with great confidence to beat the Bombers at Gather Round last week. I should have recognised that nothing is more quintessentially Melbourne than defeating the undefeated early premiership favourite one week and losing to a winless cellar dweller on its way to establishing a record losing streak the next.
