Obviously No.. SA! 

Casboult can play back and gives us flexibility forward and a chop out in the ruck.

I’ve got to admit I don’t completely hate the idea. We played most of this season without a key forward, although it was due to Weideman and McDonald both being writeoffs. He’s limited for sure and capable of being completely hopeless, but he can take a grab and could be cheap insurance. If he ended up playing the whole season at Casey then so be it.

Could pretty easily be talked out if it though.

God no. Yeah he can clunk it but then what happens? No more guys who can't kick please.

And yet we're bringing in Langdon and looking at Sam Murray. Righto mate.

So we should get Casboult as well to add to the circus?

At least those guys offer run and carry and are in their early 20s. Casboult is 30 and offers nothing more than a good mark which Tomlinson will also provide

Lucky they’re only 23 and 23 respectively, fingers crossed their kicking can be corrected.

He couldn't miss from anywhere against us. 

Still a no from me.

Could be the reason why we say 'yes' so we don't have to put up with him missing 18 in a row and then kicking 6 straight against us.

Similar to Ben Holland. Can take a strong grab but lucky dip when it comes to kicking.

Not entirely against the idea.We don't have a big number of strong markers

kicking for goal he meant mate. we have so many bad kicks for goal like petracca, gawn when resting fwd, weideman has good form but misses more than you'd like, spargo cant kick 40m and hunt is a bad kick. so yes, no casboult.

You can improve set shot kicking, but kicking on the run is far harder and in many cases impossible, as players revert to what they are used to when running and under pressure of being tackled.

Just tell them to stop running before they kick.

You mean continue to kick off one step like we do now.

Obviously some out on the fulls or failed to score but he's 15.11, 12.10 and 34.18 the last 3 years, I think he's a pretty solid shot for goal now, but he's also 29 and never cemented a permanent spot. Did play ok down back this year as well. We could do worse than him for the last tall depth spot, but I think he wants a 2 year deal and a chance to play.
