I literally just started looking him up to see his contract status then saw this post. Fits the bill as 'slightly high profile', good age, does well around the ground as a contested marking target, and originally from Victoria. Would be happy with this deal.
Voted for Woody, with Hunter a close second.
All the others - Bont, Stringer, Wallis, Johannisen - You could see had the potential and showed glimpses last year, they just got it together this season. Always loved Picko, so not surprised at all by his form this year, same goes for Boydy and...
He has been quoted many times by other players about being on of our spiritual leaders. I think he can and will continue to lead in that sense, and as part of the leadership group. I just don't think he has the personality to be a captain of the club, and being able to handle the off-field...
Wallis or Roughead methinks - co-captains maybe? Could work to support each other given they are still quite inexperienced.
Think Tom Boyd can step up down the line, I think he would be a terrific captain when he's hitting his straps at 25-26. The Bont as well.. Spoiled for choice with...
I would be leaving T Bo in the team regardless. He will become an extremely important player for us and needs maximum game time.
Goodes and Cordy should be dropped. Cordy a certainty, if Redpath was dropped from his previous weeks effort, then Cordy will definitely be dropped. I think Tommy...
Final team, defence is a bit iffy.. happy with the rest of it though..
Traded GAJ to JPK and Shenton to Sloane this week - 3 trades left and $195k in the bank, might get Morabito in for mid bench cover next week.
Ambrose > Kersten
Impey > Honeychurch
Following week Shenton > Sloane then team is complete
Keep rest of the ~$130k for sideways trades if injuries occur
Nice and easy this week.. Barring any injuries or late outs it will be
Taylor > Robbie Gray
Roughead > Zorko
Just have Shenton and Langdon to upgrade later to finish the team. 66k in the bank and 9 trades left:thumbsu:
Polec > SJ
Downgrade Derickx
Get rid of Mumford if he isn't back by rnd 10 (yes I've held him for that long)
Following week:
Impey > Cameron
Higgins > Gray possibly
Week after that
Suckling > Hanley
Possibly Taylor > NRoo when he bottoms out
Team pretty much finished after that
Thomas > Rockliff (BE 86)
Next week Polec > SJ (BE 134)
Was initially going Thomas > SJ and Polec > Jelwood after rnd 9 but thought Rocky is more unique, has a good BE, and is from a diff team (if that even makes a difference).
Also went Jaensch > Bartel and Suckling > Hanley (Had nearly 500k...
This week:
McDonald -> Cutler
Fasolo -> Robbie Gray
Week after Suckling to Hanley, after rnd 8 Daisy to Jelwood/SJ, possibly some downgrades in between (Ellis -> Salem, Cunningham -> O'Rourke) and upgrade Langdon/Laidler to premo.
Was going to go Daisy -> Watson, Suckling -> Hibberd this week...
DEF: B. Goddard, B. Waters, B. Gibbs, J. Grimes, B. Goodes, L. Stevenson (D. Terlich, D. Van Unen)
MID: G. Ablett jnr, D. Swan, T. Cotchin, J. Selwood, L. Ball, J. O'Meara, J. Viney, N. Hrovat (B. Crouch, S. Dwyer)
RUC: M. Leuenberger, T. Goldstein (M. Daw, L. McBean)
FWD: L. Franklin, D. Cox...
Backs - Not bad, I'd keep an eye on Broughton throughout NAB cup to see where he is played.
Mids - Solid, Hrovat could be another min price option
Rucks - Question mark over Mumford's durability, luenberger could be a steal
Fwds - Quite strong, although I'd reconsider Cloke
