spirit of norm smith

Yes it does not impact us. My point was to make sure Jesse gets a good deal. He is leaving for family reasons but want him to get his right $$$. I think Hogan was about ready to take his game to a new level in 2019. We need to get 2 x 1st rounders (maybe even Freo 1st pick in 2018 draft and Freo future 1st pick in 2019 draft)

McCartin is expendable. Battle is 192cms and not a ruck fwd option. Marshall is still a question matk wait and see the Saints option they got McCartin wrong so it’s a lottery

Saints want Max King. 200cm forward and ruck.

Retired. Balic and Vince Delisted. King Pedersen Bugg Mckenna Filopovc (rookie) Potential trade out ?? Kent stkilda Hogan Freo Vandenburg swans thats 10 out?? potential trade ins. May. Preuss. kolodashnji Hoping for a miracle to get a Shiel Gaff or Kelly thats a busy period ahead

Whilst others like Lukosius Rankine King twins and Walsh, my best prospect is Bailey Smith. Vic metro MVP in 2018 captain Xavier College 1st XVIII captain Sandringham under 18s TAC Pace. Skilled. Tackles. Runs. Disposal efficiency 75%. Weakness is that he is more outside than inside. But he can win the footy. Reminds of a Trent Cotchin type. He can hit targets If MFC gets a top pick around 4 or 5, I hope we grab Bailey Smith

Why May??? We have two very good key backs and Lever is back in 2019 we need outside pace we need a Kelly Shiel or Gaff now one is gettable

Yes Hogan was a Melbourne player. Our messiah. Big key forward described as the next Wayne Carey. Injuries and the go home factor mean we may not see his best in red and blue. MFC NEEDS TO MAKE FREO PAY TOP DOLLAR BOTH IN CONTRACT $$$ PLUS TWO FIRST ROUND PICKS

Mfc would have been a huge show to beat collingwobbleswood 2019 is our year

Need to do a strong deal i wanted hogan to stay but now must get in two top 10 picks.

Yes as expected. Needs to get the foot right for 2019

Wagner had a great year. Rookie chance. Still only 21yo.

Has the ability. We need to keep some mature bodied depth players. He is not best 22 but best 30 so likely will get game time in 2019 and must take chances Next step is to move from very good VFL player to week after week AFL standard. Big preseason. Bring it on Jkh

It’s likely Taylor will have to find a few late draft gems. Late draft smokies or rookie chances include Lachlan McDonnell. Stingrays vfl Mitch Lewis. Casey vfl Laitham Vandermeer Murray u18s Jake Aarts Richmond vfl Each have some special skills and huge upside footy ability.

Yes too soon for full listing. Need to finalise free agent moves and trade deals. As is I can help with some possible names At pick 36-38 for MFC likely pick in 2nd round Mitch Riordan Stingrays u18s Tom McKenzie Knights u18s Toby Bedford (next gen MFC academy) Stingrays u18s Joe Ayton-Delaney Chargers u18s Fraser Turner Tas u/18s At pick 48-50 MFC pick from Crows likely to be VFL pickup such as Jay Lockhart Casey Marty Hore Collingwood vfl Sam Collins Werribee Corey Rich Frankston Chris Jansen nth Melb vfl

Agree. He could be a risk worth taking.

Vandenburger ready to be part of our special journey. Disappointed if he goes !!!

Cross and Vince as dual runners? Bernie will still haunt Dangerfield!!

Yes yes yes to KK. (KK easier than Kolidhjjhfhdashji) he is skilled with excellent left foot delivery plus length physically ready to go the concussion issues are the point to discuss but I am confident MFC can help this be put behind him a risk but is exactly the player we need should be a pick 30-50 draft pick exchange. Kent’s Stkilda trade pick probably gets it done

Not on any available list that Freo would give up.

Good call

? Hunt ? Frost

Definitely want to keep Hogan. Definitely. But if he wants to go home and Freo did the right deal (2x 1st round picks) then Dees must work out the best outcome. Could Freo offer their current pick 6 (assume Suns get pick for Lynch compo)and Ed Langdon. That would be tempting.

Yes had a very good 2017. Has the ability. It’s just trying to work out why he was in NEAFL. Sometimes a change of scenery (footy culture etc) might bring out his best. Mayes would be worth equal to Dean Kent. We can pass on that draft pick to Lions.

He has the goods we need. Pace skills goal kicking

Wow. It’s an active centre only 3 days after our season ended
