Re: Rookie List

As I scroll through the rest of the delisted free agents, not many pop out to me. Although Jordan Gallucci has had his injury issue he was an early draft pick a couple of years ago, how are his foot skills? Sam Skinner has had several ACL's but could be good back up. Jasper Pittard showed at Port th...

Rookie List

We have plenty of rookie spots left, and I would be thinking about delisting a couple of our uncontacted players such as Clavarino. But should we also look closely at some of the delisted free agents such as Cam McCarthy and Chips. What do think?

Re: The New List

To the of my knowledge (which is just the same as the average punter) the following guys dont have contracts: Clavarino Marsh Savage Phillips Plus Lonie who has an offer and Carlisle who has reportedly agreed. Selecting only 1 draftee (unless we can trade up) I'd be promoting Wilkie, offering Savage...

Re: The Caldwell conundrum

Surely we should have a quiet word to GWS to see what they would want, and if we could make that happen.. ie pick 17. (Jy would be like a new draftee with more development). And then remind Jy's manangement that we are stil interested and inform him of his role rotating through the midfield & pl...

Re: What we need

So looks like we'll get Crouch as a free agent. If so that's awesome as he's free. -Now we need to lock down Jye Caldwell, as he's a player that will be best 22, and will improve us moving forward. -That leave us with finding a FF/CHF to partner Max King. - Ben King would be awesome long term. - Cou...

Re: What players are we likely to get in the trade

If we dont put our hat in the rig for Cameron and Crouch we're stupid! Cameron would be amazing for Kings development and only cost cap space. Caldwell great young talent, would be starting 22 Start there. Then.... -So I'd be approching Adelaide offering Dunstan & someone maybe Mckenzie for thei...

Re: 2020 and beyond

Realistically looking at out team we need 2 mids (1 developing & 1 established) and another key forward. Hopefully Caldwell is already locked in as the developing mid. An A grade midfielder is a must too make us a contender..... Izaac Heeney would do nicely, but I'm dreaming. Battle could potent...

Re: Trade Period Part 2- go do your thing Gubby

Can we bundle picks & players for Taranto, Caldwell & Xavier O’Halloran. Now that would be a masive boost to our midfield.

And why not snare Cameron through free agency. After we secure that deal of course.

It would be great is the club had the balls forwarded that type of information to the afl & media demanding them to explain and publicly apologises (happy if that apology comes in the for of cash settlement or draft picks.... but that would never happen.

Re: Time to get ruthless

Gunston is a great idea, however we should, use Carlise to facilitate a trade for Bailey Smith and Caldwell & shake the tree for Coniglio (long shot). Then utilise Gunston at CHB.

Re: Time to get ruthless

Great post Teflon. I believe a measure of where our list sits is that only Marshall, Steele and possibly Hill would get a game at Geelong and at the other end of the scale Kent, Hind, Lonie and Parker would struggle to get a game anywhere else Thanks not entirely true.

Carlisle

Why do we play him forward at times? I realise he wants to play down back, but some times you have to do what's best for the team.

Proved at the Bommers he can play Forward.

We could give Maxie a rest, play Carlisle forward and Battle down back or bring in Clavarino or Robertson.

Re: I feel sorry for Max King

Now I realise I said we show drop Max last night, but I may be we should play him up on the forward flank. Leading up the wings. He'd at least provide a target, might attract another opponent, leaving us a spare going forward.

Or bring Abbott in to play the same role a similar King
