We have one of the best indigenous setups in the league, imagine how Kozzie and others would feel being forced to play with Tex.
I thought this club had a no dickheads policy.

The club still have a group they need to re-sign . Not sure how we fit Walker in to our cap let alone if he is even interested .

Considering the goings on of the club over the last few days I would say there isn't a 'No dickhead' policy

**** TayTay, had a massive hissy fit when Lever left the Crows. Seems more suited to play for a loser club like Essendon.

Walker's a knob. Get McStay.

Milkshakes barely counts as a player anymore, let's be honest.

I have no idea how anyone can have this opinion. How can you look at our forward line of Ben Brown, Weideman and Mcdonald and say that we don't need him. Literally Majak Daw is a massive upgrade on Ben Brown at the moment.
He's barely getting off the ground when jumping and is only 6'4"... 194cms
I don't think, from what Ive seen of him over the past few matches streamed, that he will translate into a main ruck at AFL level. Even for a few weeks.
We'd be better using the Weide as 2nd ruck, resting forward. with LJackson... This exposes BBBrown now.
This could be a good call. And a timely one to boot. As we'll need that other tall forward now, and as we play them this week.
TMc is nearly cooked, imo.

Fair call. Luke Jackson has a good jump on him but half the time he jumps too early as in on the ground by the time the ball arrives.

We don't need another medicore swingman on a 3 or 4 year deal above market value. We have Tomlinson for that.
If we are after a tall forward, we should look at one who we think will get better than their current level. Zurhaar is maybe slightly undersized but could be worth pursuing (he's OOC). Fogarty? Amartey? Hayden McLean?
He's gotta lot to learn about rucking; and playing tall.
Fogarty is one I could be interested in. Was interested in his draft. He's been disappointing the last couple of years. Could come cheap as a power mid/chf.

If Georgiades was gettable - and knowing we were massively into him in his draft year - that'd be a huge coup.

We were definitely keen on him in his draft. I'd love Georgiades but it'd cost us a first rounder for sure.

Can't believe people here want the guy. Must have very short memories about how much he carried on about Lever.
Guy is an absolute toolbag. No way.

Either that or are extremely thirsty for a KPF with some presence, which I dont blame them. But yeah its a no for me. Cant stand him.

Can someone start some rumour saying they have inside sources at the club and we are getting McKay or Curnow please.
I'd love Tex on our list! Campaigner, but he can bloody play.
Not sure we will go after a KPF. We currently have TMac, BBB, Weid, JVR, Fritta, Jackson, Mitch Brown on our list and all can play a KPF role. Petty has shown he can move forward and kick a few snags as well if needed. I just don't think we are going to go looking for another KPF. Mitch Brown is the only one that will be gone next year. Wasn't that long ago we kicked 140 points in a GF. The connection to our forwards is the bigger issue. That transition from defence to F50. We still need blokes who can run it out of defence and use the ball well. Maybe it's a tweak with what we already have, but I think we need a solid small lock down defender and another winger. That ground ball in our D50 is hurting us and if Lingers gets shut down, we struggle. JJ ain't the answer IMO.

One I'd like if we could, would be Harri Himmelberg; the perfect TMc replacement, but better.
OOC end of 2023.

Yeah the only way you'd trade for a w***er is if you didn't have anyone who was at the same team as him at any point. I've had a former Crow (not Lever) offer unprompted that's he's a massive tool.

Apparently Luke Jackson is being offered a massive deal. If we win the flag this year, let him go. Stuff him. We will be in a great position to demand serious compensation.
