We simply do not have the gamestyle for undersized key forwards. They way we move the ball slowly and try to get repeat entries and bomb it long means the only type of KPF that would truly do well in our forwardline is a genuine 198cm+ type.

AMW ACL confirmed

Hartigan is scum regardless

JJ - unrivalled football IQ

Hasn't had a good time at the Hawks at all. He really got off on the wrong foot......................

Could turn out to be a bigger version of Patrick Cripps

Way better than anything we have for his position. No brainer if he's cheap

Basil -> Basil Brush -> Tim Broomhead (UFA)

Ellis and Newnes are not bad free agent options. Obviously Hill and Langdon are better options but will cost picks/players. I would not be surprised to see us end up with 2 of the aforementioned 4. That would balance our team up very nicely. I'd also be going hard at Papley as a fwd/mid.

Future star written all over him

Maybe he's got a grudge against us...

Time to bring in Kielty and play him up forward so we can at least contest the ball in the air. TMac out for a rest if he's not fully fit or off to Casey to find form if he doesn't have an excuse. Wouldn't be against dropping Weideman to bring in someone like Lockhart too.

I know it doesn't prove anything but you can see his possession numbers and rebound 50s are higher than you'd ever expect from a small forward. I was watching him closely all season and he was up the ground as much as any of their mids.

He's not a small forward though. He is a winger that plays high half-forward and occasionally half-back.

Saints are too quick and mobile up forward for Petty to be considered.

About as likely as seeing him in the ASX200...

Chooooooooof

Always seems to be involved in the big moments that decide matches. Has fluffed them in the past but is making the most of them in 2018.

How is anyone suggesting OMac should be dropped? We don't play 1v1 in the backline anymore. It's not his fault that Hawkins had 20m of space to lead in to, straight at the ball carrier, for the entire last quarter.

Tom Cutler, Ed Langdon, Jake Lloyd, Luke Dahlhaus (UFA)...

He's good. Great link player with a good tank that can win the hard ball when required and kicks goals.

I wish I had someone to talk to, Mach5. I'd be very happy if this was true. He's exactly what we're missing.

Not at all mate. Get your hand off it. Trade a surplus with value for a need with similar value. You must not be paying much attention this year.

Straight swap for Ed Langdon.

FFS he was in the All Australian squad at 21 years of age and people here are saying his stats aren't good enough???
