Travy14 2,142 Posted September 22, 2022 Posted September 22, 2022 Could we be bold and make a play for Logan McDonald who has just been dropped for a GF? Another WA boy, but might be a vulnerable time to strike?? 3 Quote

The Swans are developing him slowly and he’ll be ok, but he’s not really the answer. Reckon he might come in to the 22 still as well. Not sure Reid’s across the line either 3 Quote

I observe players across the team doing the same thing, so it must be coaches instructions. I thought that was the central problem in our loss to the swans in the finals. Expand I agree. Eddie Langdon’s bounce totals took a massive dive this year, he clearly wasn’t running it nearly as much either. Theres 2 big factors: 1. No bounce off half back. The winger should get the ball via hands or in so much space they have to take it on. 2. No Tom McDonald at chf hitting up. Not to say that JJ doesn’t have to improve. You can’t be as risk adverse as he was this year. But he was a product of a slow system. JJ’s run and link by hand was very strong in 2021. He’d often be involved multiple times in the same chain. 1 Quote

With salary dumping all the rage at the moment, it will be interesting to see how this plays out if he does move. Do we pay the dogs with a later pick to take his full salary on? Is it that much of a burden that we would give up draft capital? Or do we pay 100-200k of his contract and get a token 3rd or 4th round pick? Or given the dearth of Key Defenders on the market and that he's contracted, do we drive a hard bargain and try and extract a 2nd round pick from the dogs? Our key defender depth will be whittled down to Turner and Joel Smith in the absence of any replacements which has me concerned. Edited September 23, 2022 by Nascent 3 1 Quote

Expand I still don’t see how Tomlinson has any positive trade value. He was that bad this year and even his Casey play looked so limited (output was good but it didn’t look good) that I think it will cost a pick to move him. Just thinking out loud here but does a Tomlinson for Josh Bruce straight swap make sense? We don’t need Tomlinson. Dogs don’t need Bruce. Neither of them recovered well from ACL’s last year. Both might turn it around with a fresh start. 6 1 Quote
