Karl Amon

[Lord Nev 13,511]

I know, I know, not the sexiest option out there, but we're desperate for wingers right? And he would improve our depth in that area, quite possibly being best 22 for us.

Thoughts?

Report: Power midfielder to request trade home to Victoria

[Ted Lasso 17,129]

He's actually had a very good year with the power this year so i'd 100% be asking the question. has some attributes as a player that would suit us. i think he'd come at a good price as well. 

i'd be all for it.

Amon to that.

3rd or 4th rounder at best.

Definitely a player we should be interested in. It would all come down to what he would cost? I would imagine the Power would be looking for a 2nd rounder.

He'll go to St Kilda..

That's how it works right?

I'd say they'd want a second rounder but our pick 38 should get it done i would have thought.

[Dee-licious 1,867]

Will be worth nothing than a fourth round so why the hell not.

Interestingly, things have gone quiet on the contract front for him after the news a month or so ago.

Please make it happen!

no...rediculous.

We already have Baker, Dunkley, JKH, Stretch, Brayshaw, Hunt, Jordan, Kolodjashnij, Sparrow, C Wagner

we don't need Amon, Langdon or Hill.....we just need to administer a game plan where these players are utilized effectively.

K Amon : averaging 19 disposals @ 75% efficiency & 4 turnovers per game & .5 goals per game.

1 of those players has shown enough to be considered best 22, and he's just had a horror year where he's been shown up when played on the wing. This is next level head in the sand stuff.

what a great idea.....

Let's go & recruit 'more of the same players' If you think Karl Amon is the answer to our issues then you should probably  give it away.

The real issue runs deeper than this discussion & I think you know that. Until our game plan & style changes then the full value of all our players will not be recognised.

Not recognising the real problem is next level head in the sand stuff.

We have to turn our list over, the players that we have that you think might fill that role have either run out of chances, are young and ultimately unproven. We need far better players on our list and i would think Amon is a far better player that all those mentioned.

Would be a yes from me.

I agree D3......we certainly need to turn the list over, but, in my opinion, until the main issue is addressed, the MFC wont be a better performing unit. Would K Amon be a good inclusion.....maybe, but he's part of a much better side in Port Adelaide where they have an attacking style of play & play a team orientated brand of footy.

Good points Goat and i think its a bit of Chicken or the egg ta the moment with this team and that's the problem. Is game falling down because of players that cant execute, or are players falling down because game plan isn't suited. the conundrum was that it was only a year ago that this plan and the execution thrust us into a prelim.

You realize we can BOTH trade in players AND work on the game plan yeah?

And if you think any of Baker, Dunkley, JKH, Stretch, Brayshaw, Hunt, Jordan, Kolodjashnij, Sparrow, C Wagner are the answer for us on the wing then be prepared for 2019 take II.

[Laughing Goat 308]

Yes I do think our wingers can come from that group. That's the whole point of my argument.....

I guess we will have to wait & see what the 'powers to be' do re the list, the game plan & the 2020 season.

Fair enough mate, that's how you see it, I see it differently. That's footy hey.

I think the list and the game plan are in for change this offseason. Cheers.
