    I reckon he would be good at scoring

    Maybe, but does he show composure?

    And I would be concerned that he may leave some of his work unfinished.

    I can’t see how or why the media draft journos and amateur draft podsters are all keen on Schubert to go to the Dees

    In my opinion …

    He’s shown ability to mark and cover ground as a mobile tall. He’s got forward ability with reach and marking.

    But he’s raw. He turns over the footy with lack of composure. His kicking is average. His goalkicking run in is stuttering and not unlike Jesse Hogan but without the solid finish. He needs time. At least a few years of development. I also think there was no real quality tall defenders in the Under 18 championship which helped some of these young forwards look better.

    I think we have a few young developing tall forwards, and even if we needed young talls, young Vic pair Louis Emmett and Archie Ludowkye would be better options.

    Not sure on the selection here. Depends how we rate our existing young KPFs and how we rate him. The 5 person interchange gives us an extra forward ruck him and JVR as a 2nd ruck. Now listed as 198cm may grows a tad more.

    Depends to some extent whether King wants a fresh forward look. Kosi mainly mid dropping forward, Dovestan to move into a forward role. Petty to go back and maybe Schubert to play that extra tall crash agile KPF/ruck?

    Has all the right plusses except rookie me suggest composure needs improvement.

    In the end it will probably be where we rate him in the draft and how we rate our up and comer KPF's. We have 2, 1st rounders next year. It also depends to some smaller extent what is available 1st round next year.

    With outrageous money being paid to bring a good player in probably best not to pinch a proven KPF/ruck from another club.

    No way we could afford to pay a De Koning type salary.

    I am not ruling him out.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Adelaide

      Noffy, Hatchy and Randy lead Adelaide’s finals-hardened flock to IKON Park for a blockbuster semi-final against Kate Hore and Hanksy’s mighty Demons.  Adelaide has dropped four of its past five matches at this ground — let’s hope that trend holds.  But don’t expect charity — Doc Clarke brings an experienced, battle-worthy murder of Crows.
