Yep, he has a massive upside will come cheap 3rd or 4th round pick.

He will be an upgrade on Preuss as he is more a forward that can ruck, rather than a ruckman playing forward

 

Would take him as a cheap option. KPF who can play ruck so improves our depth in our weakest list position.

I don't not want him per se, but we're looking at 2.7 marks and 0.4 goals per game here...

Handy for depth maybe, but unconvinced he's going to make us much better.

(For the sake of statistical comparison - TMac averaged 3.2 and 0.8)

Perfect

 

At least wth Ratugolea you will be getting his best years. With Brown you are getting a player who is past his prime and best at playing in a position which potentially no longer exists. 


He needs time but he's got a future as a ruck/forward I think. He'd be a very nice partner for Jackson when he's the primary ruck. 

But I don't think we should spend the resources on a player like that whilst Gawn is the number 1 ruck and Jackson is the support man.

Hit the draft and find the next Esava now so he's ready to go in a few years.

GWS really should grab him in the Cameron trade. He'd pair nicely with Preuss.


Is Daniel Cherny his manager?

Edited by A F

Yes. 

Whenever I'm watching Geelong, he seems to be playing alright.
Doesn't seem to be a ball-magnety and clearly I've missed the matches where he's stunk it up.

We need someone to be a big bodied replacement for Preuss.  Whilst he wasn't getting regular games, he was able to provide a contest in Gawn's absence.  I'd hate to see Jackson having to ruck entire matches at his age/weight.  At the moment, Tom McDonald would need to cover Gawn in case of injury, and if he leaves as well, then the need grows greater.

Would want both and Brown would be the priority

Who have u been watching this season?

Either him or Ben Brown. Oh sorry Ben can't mark either!!!

You have NFI if you’re comparing Ben Brown and Sava 

Apart from slaughtering Lever in his debut game, I don't think I've ever seen him do anything of note. Pass.

Is that the day he had 8 touches and kicked 1 goal?  Massive slaughtering there.

He's just turned 22, so he's still young for a tall forward/ruck and has some good attributes to build with the right development. We'd get him for a 3rd or 4th round pick. He's worth that cheap punt IMO.

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
