  1. if the afl do change the rules to reduce congestion, then this should be good for outside players and runners given the extra space. it may also mean more positional play and hence more one-on-one contests and marking. maybe a benefit for tall kp players. but who knows, the coaches certainly will continue to do whatever they think will help them to win, no matter what
  2. yeah, i think he's been playing injured. i doubt he's 'cooked' at 27yrs old. a lot of people last year said kieren jack was 'cooked' , but he's come good this year (maybe not his best but still good) and he's 31yrs old maybe hannebery needs checking over by the richmond doctor before considering him ?
  3. i also edited my prev post to add some detail that this option was for if we wanted to attract a decent backup ruckman for max and we needed to offer good prospects of game time to attract him as you don't like 3 talls in the fwd line what future do you see for weids?
  4. nothing terribly wrong with 3 talls if they are effective. both hoges and tmac are very mobile and aerobic and can cover a lot of ground. 20+% of the time one of them will be resting on the bench anyway but it does solve the problem of attracting a good big man to help out max without him ending up at casey for most of the year, which would be a turnoff for someone wanting game time so if you go looking for a quick backup ruch for max go looking for a fwd/ruck type
  5. which is why we need a good fwd/2nd-ruck - to give max a chopout and if max injured to take over 1st ruck in time that might be bradtke or it could be weids. in the short term is there a suitable big man out there who could reasonably hold down a fwd position so we could at least offer game time
  6. timbo, save me from having to read the archives....what reasons

    one doesn't have to match weagles offer. it is the other way around. player first nominates (say) melbourne. melbourne offer 4 years at 800k. weagles then have to match that offer. my reading is they have to match both years and amount per year.....or of course exceed them i.e. i don't think 6 years at 600k matches or exceeds even though total amount is greater (3.6m vs 3.2m) i could be wrong.......anyone have more info?

    not sure why posters talking of trades wrt to gaff the big attraction to us is that he is an rfa and trade free yeah, i know weagles could match offer and then it's trade time, but if it came to that we would not be interested
