We could do worse.. Could be a handy utility down back and direct replacement for Howe possibly? Wouldn't have to cough anything up as he is an UFA. Thoughts?

He does some really good things for the Bulldogs, he has a really quick turn of speed and often finds space out the back of the packs, but his disposal is average for the most part.

I dont see him adding major improvement to our forward half, but that said would increase the strength of our list overall.

He's a dud.... Just a soft footballer with a few tricks!

Someone please make this stop, I can't handle it!

Taller skinnier Jack Watts.

Jarred Grant's playing style epitomises all that we're trying to rid ourselves of as a club.

Not a hope in hell would I imagine we'd be interested.

Watts is taller.

If we get Jarrad Grant, can we please get Liam Jones too? Oh please can we can we?

Do the people starting these threads watch football?

Maybe it's also the same people that reckon Jon Butcher would be a good addition to the side..turn it up.

Did someone miss Roosy's point about bringing in competitors at the b&f?

Is that why we are targeting Melksham?

Hard to see where or how...

Jon Butcher? LOL

[rjay 25,091]

Jon Butcher? LOL

Line ball I would think...

[Optimus D 283]

Just don't see the value.

[Little Richard 6,265]

Lol no.

[Demon Jack 6,930]

Does some ok things but wouldn't have him on my radar.

Didn't he kick three first quarter goals in a game this year....oh wait a minute....

[dazzledavey36 55,359]

This is getting beyond the joke now... every single player that is delisted someone is silly enough to start a thread about us having a look.

FMD if we are gonna trade out Watts wouldn't it be ironic if we then went and pick up this spud!

[binman 43,786]

Now please this is getting silly. I'll support Watts because he's a dee. But i'm not so blind as to not see his weaknesses. Recruiting a player with the same weaknesses (and a couple of others besides eg poor disposal) would test my ability to fully support MFC players (though i have to admit other recent imports, notably Dawes have tested that abilty - i even broke my rule and let out an exasperated "Dawes" yell at the footy this year - though fortunately i stopped short of calling him a spud)

[Gandalf46 133]

Nope. No thanks. Agree with most the posts above - why pick up someone else's rubbish.

[DeeZee 7,445]

Don't like him, a poor mans Watts.

If we get rid of Watts and Howe and recruit duds like Grant and Melksham I will be extremely disappointed.

A lot of water to go under the bridge yet, and to tell the truth no one has a clue what's really going on behind the scenes.

Still hoping we land that big fish midfielder.

One of the first times for a while that I agree with you Steve!

We've already got Watts, we have ZERO need for a player like Jarrad Grant.

yeah.........NUH !!!

[Little Goffy 14,639]

The only real basis for recruiting him is that his name starts with 'J'.

I believe there's a secret priority pick clause where if you can bring your team to more than 50% starting with the same letter, you get a bonus pick every year to use on the best available draftee with that letter. Would be a handy bonus and we're nearly there.

Melksham, Taylor, Grant... there's a definite theme of players who main attribute is their first initial.

If it was a case of getting these players on low contracts for almost no trade cost, on the mutual understanding that they might quickly be just depth players and aren't guaranteed games, sure, we've got list space and do need depth.

There is always the possibility that these players can be fired up - remembering that under Paul Roos Sydney became famous for turning recycled ordinary players into valuable contributors.
