Mine.Trying to picture a side for next year
Lester Andrews Starce
Wilmott Payne Coleman
Fletcher Neale McCluggage
Lohmann Hipwood Rayner
Cameron Daniher Morris
McInerny Dunkly Berry
Ah Chee W Ashcroft L Ashcroft Zorko
McCarthy/Bailey
You would think just like will Levi walks straight into the team and 35, 11 clearances and a goal in his VFL debut shows that is probably going to be on merit and not just for development as a future star.
I'm not sure that Bailey has ever been dropped so the obvious answer is Ah Chee. If Zorko doesn't continue his form into next year then he could be the guy to come out.
Then we would have to consider Marshall as well.
It's a great problem to have no doubt.
Unless it nets us Petracca somehow then lets really hope not.Hopefully no surprise trade requests this year then
I'm not going to be upset if Bailey decides to leave. He isn't best 23 in my mind.Hopefully no surprise trade requests this year then
Yep I like the idea of Reville being in and subject to no hiccups this time around with his recovery I think the club will have Doedee in the mix.Mine.
Doedee, Andrews, Starcevich.
Wilmot, Payne, Coleman.
Fletcher, Neale, McCluggage.
Lohmann, Hipwood, McCarthy.
Cameron, Daniher, Morris.
McInerney, Dunkley, Berry.
W.Ashcroft, Bailey, Zorko, Rayner, Reville.
Pushing for a spot- L.Ashcroft, Brain, Gardiner, Ah Chee, Sharp, Beecken, McLachlan, Answerth.
I would make a spot for Petracca when he is traded in.
I'm expecting 5 on the bench from 2025, no subs.
Will always be injuries to someone so no probs he will be in.I'm really interested to see how he goes next year. Some top level talent in coming, Kai and Cal both earning their spots. I'm not 100% sure who comes out for him without injuries.
He has been down this year but I would be very worried about losing his speed as it’s something we still lack across the board IMO - something we know won’t be addressed by Ashcroft and Marshall arriving.I'm not going to be upset if Bailey decides to leave. He isn't best 23 in my mind.
If Petracca is gettable, what would a deal cost? I assume two first round picks plus change at least. Or a first round, a future first round, and a player. Its hard to see how it could be achievable, but is worth pursuing if he has any interest in Brisbane. It appears he genuinely wants out, but is contracted to 2029. I guess there will be a need to offload some current players for currency for a deal like this.Unless it nets us Petracca somehow then lets really hope not.

Having in mind that draft picks will be need for Levi and Sam Marshall.
Currently Brisbane only have picks 14, 52 and 68, for a total of 1466 points. The annual merry-go-round of pick swaps will greatly improve the total points, but lots more are needed.
If they decide to trade Bailey, what is he worth? I think he would be seen as great get by other clubs, but he gives me the impression that he has reached his potential at Brisbane. Great in flashes, but no significant growth over the last couple of years.
What is Prior and Dev worth if they are traded to the west?
What is Connor McKenna, Madden, and Answerth worth?
Is Jarryd Lyons worth anything? North are looking at Viney and Wines at the moment, so if they want mature player/mentors, Jarryd could fit a need.
Fine balance between a focus on the premiership window, which could be open for only a couple of more years, and starting a mini rebuild.
Early wish list is:-
Ins - Petracca (you have to wish even if there is the slimmest of chances), Levi, Marshall, Tom Gillet, Ryan Gilder, Ty Gallop, Grainger-Barras (Hawthorn), Sampson Ryan (Richmond), and Bailey Scott (North). The last two being Queenslanders so they might be able to be lured back, but at what trade price. And lastly a small speedy forward.
Outs - Robertson, Prior, Michael, Lyons, McKenna, Madden, Answerth, Kalin Lane, Craven and Joyce.
I would be shocked if Levi is not in our team from round 1.Mine.

From my team any of Reville, Bailey, Fletcher, McCarthy(ACL) depending on form at the time, hopefully Linc gets back to his best quickly, IMO he is a fantastic player and lock in the team when at his best.I would be shocked if Levi is not in our team from round 1.
Who is making way for him in your mind?
There was a bounce on the weekend where our mids were Neale, Clugg and Bailey. 100% Need to have on of either Bez or Dunkley in every CB IMO.

A 4th round pick swap at best. Prior is out of contract and a potential delisted candidate.What is Prior and Dev worth if they are traded to the west?
McKenna might be worth a late second round pick.What is Connor McKenna, Madden, and Answerth worth?
Not in the current trade market.Is Jarryd Lyons worth anything?
North are looking at Viney and Wines at the moment, so if they want mature player/mentors, Jarryd could fit a need.

You are spot on with your list analysis we are third on the VFL ladder even with all our long term injuries and the rookie picks are projectng well especially Beecken. Other than Ashcroft and Marshall I would be trying Gillett as a project player. We will be full to the brim next year if our list stays healthy and should be playing finals again and hopefully a premiership.So let's us cut all depth and go for all young, unproven kids and some contracted players that don't meet a need?
Not every draftee is an Ashcroft, Fletcher or Morris, there will be players who don't play in their first season. Then with the contracted players, Petracca is not required for what it would cost to bring him across, Samson literally re-signed a month ago, Grainger-Barras I had to Google (never heard of this guy) and what does Bailey Scott bring to the table that McCarthy, Lohman, Bailey, Zorko, Kiddy, Ah Chee, Rayner or Sharp wouldn't bring to that role?
Robertson, Prior, McKenna, Answorth and Joyce will most likely be on our list next year (unless trades are specifically requested - which would only be Dev at this stage). Lane will probably be kept as well if no other rucks are available.
Lyons will be a delist when his contract is up. Nobody will be trading for a 32-year-old whose time is up. North doesn't need him, and he isn't a Viney mentor type.
I also don't expect more than Levi and Marshall to come to us in the draft, the rest is what is available and what is required. Only thing we are lacking is another viable tall forward (who is not Ryan) and a decent lockdown defender with pace, even then, we don't need a list overhaul, just need to kick straight. A goal kicking coach and a good sports psychologist could fix that problem.
Who are you expecting to announce their retirement?Wondering when we'll get retirement announcements. Usually it is around now for our players off memory.
Who are you expecting to announce their retirement?
All our over thirties have indicated their desire to continue.

Yeah, that's who I was referring to. Can't see him getting back into the side for the remaining 2+ games we're playing. He may ask for a trade but I can't see which bottom team would pick him up.Lyons is probably the only possibility
