Best of the lot is our very own Bugg who would surely be playing in a number of other teams. He’d legitimately be in the top 10 players at Carlton and Gold Coast. Bugg is hopeless and doesn’t suit any positional needs. Mainly because he couldn’t settle in a position the last couple of years I think we’ll take 4 draft picks and then look for 2-3 mature age players who fill depth needs, depending on the draft those being: Forward/3rd ruck - ie. younger Pedersen Outside kicking/run - a new Bernie Vince/Lewis type Depth inside mid - a cut price Dom Tyson/Nath Jones Crumbing/pressure forward - a new Garlett We need to replace the guys who actually got games over the last 2 years. Not find replacements for guys like Bugg who was hardly picked all year 1 Quote
spirit of norm smith 16,679 Posted October 20, 2018 Posted October 20, 2018 Depth inside mid - Mav Weller. 1 year contract. Physically ready. Quote
spirit of norm smith 16,679 Posted October 20, 2018 Posted October 20, 2018 Crumbing pressure forward. Nick Hind. Excellent year for Essendon vfl team. 1 Quote
MadAsHell 4,217 Posted October 20, 2018 Posted October 20, 2018 Nathan Wright (St Kilda) or Aaron Mullett (Nth Melb/Carlton) as potential cover as small defender in case Jetta were to get injured. Or if we were more interested in cover for key forwards then Aaron Black (Nth Melb/Geelong) or Ryan Schoenmakers (Hawthorn) who I believe hasn't signed are our best options IMO. Quote

Ethan Tremblay 31,389 Posted October 20, 2018 Posted October 20, 2018 (edited) Black did his ACL in June. Mav Weller, wow wee...he plays like his eyes are too close together and they’re crossed. Edited October 20, 2018 by Ethan Tremblay Quote

WERRIDEE 5,638 Posted October 20, 2018 Posted October 20, 2018 I'd be interested in Lamb as a small forward but it wouldn't make a lot of sense considering he is similar to Bugg and we got rid of Bugg. I doubt we will get a delisted free agents (we need 2 if we don't upgrade) I think we will upgrade as there isn't really another reason why they haven't announced the signings of T.Smith and Keilty. I think they will wait to the end of the delisted free agents time closes. Quote
FireInTheBennelly 4,104 Posted October 20, 2018 Posted October 20, 2018 Is there a list around of players yet to be re-signed? The current delisted group is pretty average. There'll be another round of delistings, so hoping that can throw up a half decent player. Quote

FireInTheBennelly 4,104 Posted October 20, 2018 Posted October 20, 2018 Not a very inspiring list though. Howe, Neade (???), doesn't look good. Quote

According to the two men themselves, Keilty and Smith are both staying on the rookie list. Quote
Blistering 545 Posted October 20, 2018 Posted October 20, 2018 Just reading this makes me think that the cupboard is pretty bare. Stuck in limbo: AFL players looking for a lifeline Quote
FlashInThePan 1,893 Posted October 20, 2018 Posted October 20, 2018 He is not in that list but I think Nathan Freeman would be worth taking a look at. He promised a lot but injury kept him from delivering at both Collingwood and Saints. He was touted as super fast in his draft year. I guess if he couldn’t get a game at the Saints that is a bad sign though. 2 Quote
Cards13 9,117 Posted October 20, 2018 Posted October 20, 2018 Libba and Townsend could be some good depth. Quote

Hey, MAH, I recall somewhere you mentioned that Keilty and T Smith had been re-signed for another year as Rookies. Would like to update the 'Contracts' thread but have been unable to find anything from the club. I noticed the AFL article showed no-one at mfc was still un-signed but do you know if Keilty/Smith contract extensions have been officially announced. Thanks.

It probably means Maynard stays on the rookie list as well means we need 2 delisted free agents because I doubt that we will go past 91 in the draft. I'm going for Oxley and Hartung.
