Head scratcher if true. We basically fielded our best back 6 yesterday minus Jetta and we conceded the most points since round 3. Defence isn’t the problem.

Is it a coincidence that anyone who plays as the Adelaide’s third tall defender seems to be a gun... Adelaide’s gameplan and back six set up seems to be a great place for 3rd talls to stack up possessions and intercepts:

Lever

replaced by Doedee

replaced by Keith.

 

On Keith; if he wanted to come to us and it wasn’t a first round pick... yes- never turn away quality.  But like everyone here I believe that it’s far from a priority.

We can’t trade our first round pick this year . Thank. God!

Which will be pick 1.

The club is lost. Its sick, its in no mans land. Fancy showing interest in Alex Keith.. hey here is an idea.. show some interest in someone who can run and spread and has lovely skills.

The club is spiraling out of control at the moment.. better get out of this spin, otherwise we will crash land and the recovery will be horrendous.

Heath has been a depth player.  He looks good and plays his role because of their system so is apparently in 'AA' form for just two months.

Put him in our, very different, system and every chance he becomes another depth player.

Walk away.

Lol.

Next up, there will be talk of trading picks to get Sam Day (the free agent not currently getting a game at the Suns).

 

You heard it here first!

There might be a trade on,  for one of our younger defenders.?  'DZ'.

has sam day has been going ok in the neafl?

cheaper option than trading for patton and his heavy contract and buggered knees

Not setting the world on fire.... 

Rarely in the best however rarely goes a game without kicking a goal.

My first thought is there isn't much to this. He's probably one of 20 out of contract players we have interest in across multiple positions.

Any time you can upgrade a key defensive spot even if you've got money and resources tied up in that area already then it isn't a bad idea to try.

Frost is out of contract so we'll have to either sign him or a replacement anyway. Is spending an early 2nd round pick and an extra 100-200k a year on Keath over Frost a good idea?

Salem, Melksham and Weideman have all signed on. Lewis and Garlett are going. Jones maybe 1 more on a veteran money deal. Oskar Baker the next priority and you wouldn't think he'd break the bank. So if we've our salary cap in decent order there should be some cash to go after some players.

Hey guys, can pretty much confirm there's not much substance to this. The club would look at it for the right price (contract and trade wise), but at this stage this all at the doings of his manager who is trying to ramp up negotiations for his client. Not surprising Tom Morris is involved given the tone of his articles about the club since being basically shunned.

Obviously I'm a random on the internet so take it as you will, but that info was passed on to me by someone who has got much right in the past. Cheers!

Are we trying to reduce oppositions to the point where 7.15.57 is a winning score?

Haven't heard anything solid at this stage, just the same sketchy whispers you guys would have already heard .

Hard to know exactly where our priorities would lay given how the season has panned out, needs nearly everywhere.

Not that I can mention other than what I said in the post. Just someone who has passed on good info in the past and I have no reason to doubt. The old someone who knows someone. I get that that probably doesn't cut it, but that's the internet I guess.

Victorian-born Keath is reportedly being offered big money from Melbourne while Hawthorn is keen on Greenwood, according to an AFL report last month.

So nothing new since the last month? btw thats behind a paywall

Do we want to play him as a forward? i don't get it.

‘Big money’? Pull the other. It would certainly have to be below or on the AFL average. Big money in comparison to the average Australian wage perhaps, but not AFL players wage.

The only reason why i can see us going for him is to replace OMAC.

If that is the case, then i thoroughly encourage it. Maybe Frosty might just end up on a wing after all!

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
