Yeah unfortunately I think that you are right with Phillips which is a pity since he's a nice mark (disposal needs a bit of work but I guess that we don't need another Frostie).
I can see Serong looking for a move to Freo at the end of next year if he can't get a consistent spot in our first 22.
DGB could end up on a rookie list at Norf or the Weagles. If Battle comes in DGB would be redundant with Serong and possibly Phillips also on the list.
Smith would be nice to have but squeezing him into the midfield might be hard and would be at the expense of a younger mid like a Ward, Hustwaite or Croc. Croc can play in other spots but the other two are mainly inside mids.
Battle would be a good get but don't sell the farm to get him.
I...
I would be surprised if he decided to stay. He's been there long enough to see very little finals action and Ross The Boss is not exactly getting any plaudits over his coaching style. Their list is average and I can't see it improving very much. If his other suitors are Melbourne and the Pies...
Hey does anyone want a free ticket to the Tigers game? I bought an upgrade last night (Bay Q52) and now a mate with a corporate box has asked me to be his guest. DM me if you are interested..
I still can't work out why Sheezel signed on until 2030. I guess his agent wanted a guaranteed commission. Could you imagine his class around the ball in our midfield?

I agree. He was far more diplomatic than Tanner Bruhn on his draft night but the lack of excitement for a young kid getting a shot at AFL after missing out was palpable.
I would like to see that also but the problem is that neither Nash nor Worpel have shown the ability to play anywhere else successfully except in the guts.
If, and I say IF, Worpel was up for trade (he and the club agree), this is the year that you would do it. As a pre agent the club has more leverage. If he wants to leave for a better deal (club further up the ladder, house and land package..whatever) the club can do a trade. If he leaves as a...
Chad is in the situation where his role as a small forward has a lot of internal competition ie Ginni, Watto, Moore etc. and he's 30. Given that he is coming off an ACL and if he is fit, I would offer him another 1 year contract. If Clarko (who loves Chad) or another team comes for him with 2...
To be fair, sometimes players don't fit into the system, are good players but have players ahead of them or are not reaching their potential through their own fault or the coach is not getting the best out of them.
Hawthorn lost Garry Ablett Snr and Josh Kennedy. These things happen. Hindsight...
If Ginni gets into Smith's ear he would surely come our way. Your point about McRae is a good one. Ginni has expressed frustration with the rigid system that he had to play in at the Pies. He's loving his time at the Hawks and Mitchell has expressed his happiness for players to "be who they...
Jeez. I hope that he is better than the previous bloke that wore that number..
