The other thing we need to factor in, is we will have Lynch's huge contract gone after this season, which will have us with so much extra cap room with the majority of our list being very young. We will be able to buy some very good picks over the next 2-3 seasons before Tassie come in, why...

I'm actually excited to watch Blight this season. As has been mentioned earlier, he has had to come from a long way back during the mid season last year. A guy that has certainly some skills that are hard to teach, but also other areas that he needs to work on. The thing is he has come back to...

The only issue with these stats, that make it look bad for Hopper. My question is how hard are the other players working to get the ball off him. If you look at Baker, Bolton & Short last season, they were half assing it for most of the season as they had given up on the year & there were other...

If we are lucky they might be here for 1 chance, but now Taranto & Hopper are here, lets try & support them. They will also offer great protection for our future kids that are coming through. I'm looking at the big picture, not on any individual players, as that is how we won our past 3...

I was over the moon that we ended up with both Hotton & Trainor, as they were rated so high at the start of the season. Injury played its part in both players drifting like they did & I'm so happy we took the risk. Both have huge upside if our club can manage their issues. Also see Lalor with...

Like the look of Sierra, has similar traits to Mon. Hopefully Mon takes her under her wing, as this young girl might add that added toughness in the mid's that we desperately need. Amazing she lasted to our pick with all the awards she got throughout her past season

https://central.rookieme.com/afl/player/amelie-prosser-shaw/ Amelie Prosser Shaw sounds like someone we could use to add to our forward mix.

Pretty happy with the girls we got, should add to the mix. We still need another mid a couple of KPF's & a key position back over the next couple of seasons & hope we keep Conti & McKenzie in the yellow & black to get a good mix to try & make it back to finals.

I hope we are aiming higher than Bacon & Ford with our 2 1st round picks. Nothing against these girls but would be disappointed if we drafted players that still need lots of work to make it at the AFLW level.

I would think since it is tiered. It really means the strong get stronger & the weak get weaker. Which I think we will slip into the second bracket, at least in the short term & hopefully not the long term. Otherwise the AFLW will find it an even harder sell, trying to encourage people to go to...

Maybe your right, just frustrated with the lack of direction we seem to have with our recruiting. It seems like amateur hour compared with what we did in the men's comp.

I think its time to ditch the tier status in AFLW, if you want it to become competitive as someone mentioned it earlier in this thread. Time to have a proper salary cap that allows everyone an even chance with recruiting & if you are down the bottom of the ladder should allow to have some extra...

I just cant see us being competitive to be honest with the top tier teams, we were middle of the field as it was & can't see us being better now. There were no serious injuries apart from our recruit from Adelaide. I just cant see our weakened midfield & an ordinary forward line being...

Yes Dimma at the helm had an influence at the start of Clarkes career. As Dimma wasn't giving too many kids game time, especially after our Premierships came to an end. Dimma was still clinging on to the chance of winning one more flag, before he bailed on us being burnt out & all. When it comes...

I have no faith in our drafting as has been mentioned, our players have been very ordinary for the most part, they seem to try & base athletes over actual skilled players. We are truly lacking in skilled players & then trade our 2nd best player for an end of 1st round pick. I loved watching...

Cant believe Sheerin has gone & to Nth Melbourne of all the teams. Makes a mockery of the AFLW, when a premiership team can continue to add to the team with players like Sheerin. Well done the Roo's recruiting team for the steal of the season. I cant see us being close to competitive with our...

I have some hope with Jud, I think as others have said he hasn't had a much of a run due to us having Dimma at the helm, & he had his favorites. I think with all the kids coming through is the perfect chance to see what he can bring to the table. Hopefully he makes it & we have a larger group of...

Happy to see all the new recruits get a few games over the course of the season. But would prefer most of them get some run in the legs in the ressies & build on team chemistry & hopefully whatever gameplan we have for this upcoming season. If they are banging down the door playing way above...

Needs to play midfield, if that means he spends the 1st half of next season in the ressie's getting his fitness to a level where he can play mids then so be it. He is not a small forward & don't think his value is there. When he has spent time in the mid's during reserve games he stands out & is...

Greeves & Sharp for me, will complete our midfield, then we can draft & pick up FA to fill the gaps. As I have said I would of picked up Dodson this season to allow Nank to retire in the next few years.

I also see Lalor as a leader as well, similar to Cotch, where he leads by his actions.

I must admit I was hoping for Dodson with this pick, as I see he had so much upside. But will keep my fingers crossed that Sims becomes a very good hybrid Ruck/Fwd to compliment our future ruck & Forward stocks.

Happy to have Jasper on board, he is exactly what we need in the Fwd line, lets hope he makes his mark & helps out the rest of the new 2024 crop to take us back up the ladder.

Looks like we got a bargain with Harry, lets hope he proves the other teams wrong that left him on the shelf so long.

My only concern for Jonty is his marking, hopefully the highlight packages have left out some of the games where he is better with the mitts than the one's I have seen.

Another player I was stoked to get, as I see him as a super reliable player, not sure if he will be a star. I can see him being similar to Grimesy & go unnoticed by opposition supporters but loved by the Tiger army.

I'm hoping he becomes the player that others on the site say he will be. As I wasn't 100% convinced on him to start with, but I must admit he has grown on me when I have seen some of his highlights. I also think he was best available pick at 7, as the rest of the players I liked were gone.

Pretty stoked we picked up young Taj, as he offers us something we don't have at the moment. Especially with Shai departing. Hopefully he can become a more consistent performer than Shai was, as he has an x-factor about him.

Looking forward to watching young Sam after a couple of pre-seasons. He looks pretty special now, so can only imagine how good he might become after being in a professional environment for a few seasons. Hopefully he can show us some glimpses during the next season & get us all excited for the...

Tend to agree, unless Harley refuses to sign an extension when his current contract runs out. Plus there will be 16 other teams that would offer way overs to get him on there lists.
