D-Mac & Membrey IN

[MadSaintFan]

Dmac and Memberey In for this weekends game. Club has made it clear they want to get games into Daniel prior to the end of the year. They have earmarked the players with long term futures and will continue to put games into them regardless of VFL form That would spell trouble for others eg. Saunders.

I hope Acres falls into this group that they want to get games into - I've got a bad feeling that he might end up back in WA if we don't...

Acres is very much in the clubs longterm plans. He's signed up until the end of 2018.

Yep acres 4 year deal last year.

I guess this is why I'm worried...

I'm assuming Cripps was also under contract, given the (terrible) trade?

He's doing well but he wanted to go home and it wasn't because of lack of opportunity.

The only one from the 2010 draft that has worked out.

Disappointing.

A mate from WA said he had a girl friend back home and ran back as soon as he could. We didn't do the due diligence on him.

yes cripps wanting to go home hurts. clearly our best pick from that draft

There would be many like that who eventually stayed. He just didn't like it here and nothing was going to change his mind. Worth a punt at that pick though. Become a really good player.

I'm not sure he actually was worth a punt.

As gringo says, we simply didn't due our due diligence.

If what I've heard is correct, we hadn't even seen a picture of the kid before we called his name out!

Well that is true. I forgot that. Im sure we will draft Jessica Alba one day because we have many pictures of her.

He's signed for 4 years. Some take longer than others. Have a look at Joey Montagna. Had his share of games for Casey Scopions
