You may be right, but given they're linked to half the competition's free agents it may just be they've run out of list spots Quote

Parfitt recruited similar time. 66 games vs 10 for Knarkle so far. Parfitt probably a slightly more inside bias vs Knarkle. Could be just injury issues. ACL in June 2017. Hammy last year Rnd 8 or so in the VFL. Hammy in July this year early in the 1st quarter against Brissy. At this point he may have a future but is injury prone and, aside from prospective longevity in the game, probably not dissimilar to Harley in terms of what he offers us on the outside. Harley obviously injury prone as well. Given our frailty on the field performance wise can we afford a potentially brittle rookie who is prone to breaking down this early in his career? Caveat emptor for all recruits is needed but i'd be putting a big red flag on this one prior to pressing the go button. Edited September 10, 2020 by Rusty Nails 1 Quote
spirit of norm smith 16,679 Posted October 21, 2020 Posted October 21, 2020 Surely the Dees are calling the Cats as soon as they can after the Grand Final. The kid can play and needs a new start ! 1 Quote

Half forward flank 1,022 Posted October 21, 2020 Posted October 21, 2020 Home state clubs interested. Less keen if we lose Jettas influence Quote

He's been in the system for a few years now 58 and it's a top of the table one as well with the Cats. Yes he's competing for limited spots i realise but the fact they wish to let him loose has to be a concern re his fairly regular break downs. Quote
spirit of norm smith 16,679 Posted October 30, 2020 Posted October 30, 2020 surely we gotta call Narkle’s manager right now cats want Smith and Higgins and Cameron we have $$ and a HFF space available Quote
Roost it far 10,160 Posted October 30, 2020 Posted October 30, 2020 Got to be worth a look. Pace, class and a goal kicker. Isn’t that what we’re chasing? Quote

Mitch Clark...….. is he still there ?? Quote
DeeSpencer 26,691 Posted October 30, 2020 Posted October 30, 2020 Narkle has a bit of class about him but he isn't a great pressure player as a forward and not all that dangerous, he really has to rotate in to the midfield to be the best player he can be. Would we be willing to play him as a mid/forward rotation guy? He's not slow but no one would call him quick if it wasn't for his skin colour which is one of my pet peeves. Quote

MadAsHell 4,217 Posted November 2, 2020 Posted November 2, 2020 While I don't think he's necessarily a walk up start to solve our other wing position, he'd certainly improve the depth there and create competition for spots. Maybe we could get involved in the Cameron trade? GWS send Cameron and Pick 43 to Cats. Geelong send picks 13 & 15 to GWS with Narkle and a future 3rd rounder to Melbourne. We send Preuss to GWS.

Surely we are calling the Cats or his management. Quote
Lord Travis 10,819 Posted November 2, 2020 Posted November 2, 2020 Narkle is a mid who rests forward, but hasn't been able to get on the park enough to play decent minutes in his preferred position yet. He's actually quite good in the guts, moves well through traffic and gets his hands free when tackled etc. He'd be a good addition to our midfield rotation as he's got good kicking skills and good agility, so adds a point of difference. Think a poor mans Shai Bolton. I'd take him on the cheap for sure to balance our midfield out more. 9 Quote
Cranky Franky 2,270 Posted November 2, 2020 Posted November 2, 2020 Definitely a yes from me. Would of been well coached & developed at Geelong & has a bit of X factor. Won't cost much. Go for it. 1 Quote
