tapscott, then fitzpatrick tapscott is going to be a genuine freak if fitzpatrick agile as anything, good dukes, could be important as we will need a ruckman goalscorer and i think this is our most likely option.

well, apologies, but how do we know melbourne had zero contact with him? none the less, its not the kind of player we need, so i am happy if we dont attempt to lure any similar players

well now, heres hoping if that is the kind of player wew are looking for we have a crack at alwyn davey

without game time he will not be able to keep his spot, big pre season, and a few good matches for casey early and he may be able to thrust his name into the 22, without early games, (as much as it pains me to say)it will likely be that next season would be his last in the red and blue

looks like we shall have an active trade week, i just hope we dont give off any picks, for players such as hale, or hinkley

presser just released, watching it on 513, see ya ablettt

yeh, really erratic, i posted a youtube highlights and he rarely hits the targets, he is quicker than bartram though

i seriously like the idea that he breaks the lines and breaks tackles, but it has been dodged he cannot kick, bartram has a better disposal than him and everyone hates bartrams disposal

well this will be interesting, coz if we take hale aswell which has been rumored we are chasing hard, how many spots will we have on our list? especially with the elevation of jordie

i like the collar look, adds a bit of the old school theme, just hope the colours come out well

a lower number could also be given to our first draft pick so what ill sit on is that 7 to bail 17 to first draft pick 21 to blease 23 to have a rest this season

i like this, choco williams or laidley aswell, i like the idea of a more experienced helper, because they shall bring a bit more to the table i feel, although woewodin could be a good fit, todd viney would be the best, but stiff chances, same with milburn.

moves really well, rubbish disposal could do alot worse i guess, would have rathered if we got onto alwyn davey if this was the player we were after http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMkPy-95YKE

bettter

i like it but stiff chances

well i think he played a big part in the zone that won hawthorn the grandfinal, and im pretty sure hes a darn good coach, definately a gooood replacement, and then it would help get young jack along to the club so thats a positive haha

hopefully try poach todd viney

ohhhh yeh, thats okay then, thanks

where did you hear this? i think maric could havfe a break out season next year, and he is still under contract.

im stoked with how he came on, with another massive pre season and if he can stay fit, he is a definate best and fairest chance even a brownlow chance if we start to contend for finals, he often plays well when we win, but when we lose he plays poorly, so hopefully he can have a completely consistent season. im stoked with how he is coming on, seeing as i wrote him off as a poor choice, if he has 5-6 good years he will have been a solid pick i feel.

cons: -the main problem is he will be 30 at the start of next year -obvious negative influence -if he screws up its a waste pros: -could really help the team win a grandfinal -possible 70 goal a season for the next 3 years -provide a step ladder for jurrah could see why we would, could see why we wouldnt

i think jack watts is going to be a great player, the one thing he has that i am suprised about is quality of disposal, he uses the ball pretty well, and his kicking for goal more often than not is really good. i had a chat with him at the best and fairest and i he told me he loses around 3 kilos every match, so its hard to keep the weight up, but in 2-3 years he will definately imo be a ripper player. i hope next season we see him crash a few packs with a strong attack on the ball, because his biggest problem is he seems to slow down when body contact is going to occur.

i was impressed by tom sullivan, kid has an amazing tank, highlighted by his chase and tackle, for holding the ball and goal, if only the kid was a little bit taller

bartram was nearly our most improved player in the side this year, he really nailed that small defender role and was rarely beaten. he was and will be an important clog in our defense for years to come. his courage and hard tackling/chasing were real features of his game this season.

John Meesen*: Once again couldn’t crack it for a senior game and finished off the year with foot surgery. Unlikely to keep his spot next year. closest to confirmation from the list assesment on mfc club site, but has not been delisted yet
