Hope we put out the feelers for Josh Fahey in any Stringer trade. Left footer that can run 2km in 6 minutes, would slot in nicely opposite Redman on a back flank.
Angwin signed until 2026 yesterday. Not sure he really qualifies as a moneyball type, at best you're getting a solid defensive wing.
If we're targeting GWS fringe players I think Fahey and Stone are better fits for us. Like Stone in particular, feels like he's on the arc of a failed half...
Nathan O'Driscoll & Conor Stone both OOC this year.
Both 188cm with top end endurance and speed. Combined with their state league form shown, there's enough to suggest they can be decent role players at AFL level. Strongly believe we should be going after undervalued fringe guys that can be...
He didn’t kick 20+ goals last year and besides he’s had the same amount of scoring shots as last year off three less games. I like him in the front half more but he’s proven to be effective in multiple roles, should play wherever he’s needed most at any point in time.
Martin is a special guy. I also prefer him playing in a forward half role but think ultimately his best work will be done floating wherever he is needed. Half back is the easiest role on the field, I'd hesitate to spend such a high pick given our other deficiencies. Berry is a great kick and...
Don’t think Jayden or Menzie will make it. Alwyn has the speed to worry defenders but lacks the forward craft. Gresh is solid enough but slow for his position. Kako and Berry improve us so much in the front half and whilst you can fill holes for other positions through other clubs’ fringe...
Guess it depends on how you view the young guys outside the 22. I have a lot of confidence in Hayes, Roberts & Hobbs becoming decent pieces. Can't say I feel the same about any of our small forwards.
I'm already there, Matt Guelfi is our best small forward ffs. Quite a few fringe mids/defenders to target that can play a role for minimal draft capital anyways.
Everything Tsatas is criticised for now was just as obvious as it was a year and a half ago.
Perhaps it just stands out more as the level of competition around him has gone up.
Hope we go hard for Henry Hustwaite, stuck behind too many at Hawthorn. 195cm first possession mid with excellent poise ball in hand, would be a perfect it playing the sweeper role at stoppage. Owe them one for Mass anyway.
Hugh Bond is stuck playing as a lockdown back pocket in the SANFL for...
Also think the height argument is kind of a moot point when it comes to Caddy because his arms are so damn long. There's the potential that he's still growing, Oscar Allen (who he reminds me so much of) was drafted at 191cm and ended up at 196cm.
I've never been a Tsatas fan, but my real issue is that we deemed this type of player selectable at a pick as high as 5. Average endurance, inability to wear or break contact, seemingly lost the ability to drive out of stoppages (injuries?), hack kick on the run, no versatility and no...
