  1. I think its too late until Mid Season Draft. with Gus retiring and I presume Smith on Inactive list, does that mean we now have 2 spots available to fill at MSD?
  2. Does this mean we did not offer a contract to Andy Moniz-Wakefield? If so, we now have 2 rookie spots left for SPP or MSD?
  3. are we of the belief that Turner and McVee will be promoted to senior list? if so, and if we remain committed to takng 2 picks in the draft (which is what has been reported) , then either go to 38 primary (which we have not done for some time), or two need to come out of the primary list. Do we assume Melk to Rookie and BBB retire? which will then give us 2 rookie picks to be used in draft or mid season? Joel Smith news may likely provide extra spot at some point.
  4. I saw him kick 7 for the Lions at the Gabba the year before last - they had huge wraps on him then. Daniher in and Fort as 2nd ruck behind Big O has kept him in the two's. Lots of talent....opportunity and development - not sure
  5. listening to the Tradies podcast with McClure and Cleary they indicated it is likely that Brown will retire
  6. if we lose Dunstan (already gone), JJ and Harmes, then a play to Devon Robertson would be ideal. we tried to get him in draft year.
  7. Players Out - BBB (retire), Hibbo (retire), Dunstan (delist), Grundy (trade), Harmes (trade), Tomlinson (trade - he just doesnt want to be there), D.Smith (delist) Players In - McAdam (not sure), Chol (not a bad option as fwd/ruck - but is he hard enough), DRAFT gun young mid, DRAFT May replacement, DRAFT a 2nd Ruck option (not fwd/ruck) as Gawn getting older until Kalani White is on board and ready (that will be at least 3 years away by which time Gawn is 35+), perhaps a mature mid year option. Players Change - Melk (extend but rookie), McVee (promote), Howes to challenge for wing spot, Jefferson to come on as KPF, continue development on Woewoedin, TMac retain as depth Not Sure - what happened to Jed Adams? Coaches - Stafford (out), Dew (in for Yze if he gets Tigs gig), new fwd coach
  8. if we lose two (or 3) of above then that would work.
  9. for the good of the AFL, I still think they should go to Tassie (they wont - but they should)
  10. Perfect fit if Grundy goes - a bargain. Saw him kick 7 at the Gabba in his first season and he hasnt been able to break into the Big O/Fort/Daniher combination
  11. So post trade, and with the inclusion of Chandler moving to primary list, signing Melk and Hibbo and using an additional 2 picks in the draft, am I correct in assuming our options are: - If we DONT delist Baker, we have 1 additional spot available on primary for a DFA + 1 rookie spot. (noting of we dont use the additional primary spot we can have 2 rookie spots) - If we delist Baker, we have up to 2 spots to use for DFA if suitable and depending on how many primary spots we fill (if any more at all) we can add between 1 and 3 rookie spots?
  12. What DL thoughts exist on including Liam Henry as part of Jackson deal to Freo? Steak knives?

  14. surely like Mitch Brown, this year. "Break Glass in case of emergency".
  15. which is exacty why we need to find a key position fwd..with time on his side. McKay? Naughton? Hipwood? King? or similar? or do we move Tomlinson Fwd, or keep Tommo back and switch Petts fwd?
  16. if you are Kade Chandler or Mitch Brown, you are looking elsewhere.
  17. Agree...too early for JVR. I cant believe im saying this but Weid in but let him play at 2nd tall in fwd line - it wont happen - Melk will stay Out - Sparrow, Hunt, Melksham In - Harmes, Bowey, Weid
  18. I tend to agree. Lets stick with the Weid for the next couple of weeks and and allow him some consistency and continuity and not take #1 defender. Chopping and changing in and out of the team and role is not helping his cause. If after this run he cant impact, he may be playing elsewhere next year. In - BBB Out - Melk
  19. BBB and Fritch just doesnt work. We need another tall to spread the 2nd and 3rd best defender. Must play Weid for rest of season. JVR is 2023.... Tommo had a good game and the role suited him - unfortunately he is depth at the moment - not best 22. If Petty is back, he only stays if Lever is out. Same with Melk - played his role but he is depth. In - Oliver, Weid, Petty Out - Bedford, Melksham, Tommo
  20. way too early in the week prediction but here goes: Out - Clarry, Bedford, Spargo In - Weid, Laurie, Hunt/Riv Gus into middle, Hunt/Riv off half back,
  21. at the end of the day, alot of this has to come down to the coaches team selection as well as the consistently poor delivery by our superstar midfield into the forward line. BB and Tmac had a good year last year because we delivered it to the forward line in an efficient way - not bomb it to packs (or just bomb it to the opposition). Also, we drop Weid after playing him as a FT Ruck? He is not a Ruck - He is a key Fwd who can support in Ruck if needed. Have to play him that way and give him a run at it. Goody chose to play small this week - which backfired. Play Weid and BB, deliver the ball properly to them and I am pretty confident we wont be writing off these two. Deliver it properly, and they still dont deliver? Well, Weid is at a new club next year and JVR becomes our man.
  22. now that it looks like Miocheck is out and Elliott is in. Hibbo is a must.
