Player Watch #19: Griffin 'Gus the Goose-stepper’ Logue

[Sean_09]

Thanks for the insight. Could you have played Pearce, Cox and Logue at the same time down back or too tall/slow? Ryan is also no midget.

Logue's biggest issue is he's stuck is behind Pearce in his best position, who's probably the 2nd or 3rd best Fullback in the competition after May (and our stand-in captain with Fyfe hurt this season). Doesn't have the skill set of Cox (who is our best defender) and Ryan plays a different role, that 3rd man/general in the backline. Ryan's undersized but still plays much taller than his size suggests.

In an ideal world? Probably keep Logue over Ryan and mold Hayden Young in his previous role, but that's taking away another strength of our team elsewhere sadly. That or trial Logue in a Mark Blicavs role, but again we're taking him out of the backline again

Waite.

technically not a trade, RFA iirc, but what a gun, arguably him or wells most exciting player to watch since carey.

Don’t think he was behind others just a better skill set than the others to try and cover for your deficiencies forward.

We done a heap of work on him prior to the 2016 draft and we decided to go with Declan Watson instead...

Take it to the "we'll pass on Luke Ryan thanks" sub-forum.

The Watson and Williams picks make me cringe every time I think about them. Neither rated inside the top 50 for the most part of the year, yet we took them with picks in the 30's. Sean Darcy, Josh Battle,Tom Stewart & Brennan Cox all taken in the next 5 or so picks. I desperately wanted B.Cox.

That draft actually highlights, how much of a positive impact you can have on your list if you nail your picks. Freo pretty much re-built their backline in one draft and nabbed a ruck with top 5 potential.

Pick 8: Griffin Logue
Pick 38: Sean Darcy
Pick 41: Brennan Cox
Pick 66: Luke Ryan

Incredible haul.

It's those sorts of hauls which transform a club

 

[Tas]

We have Griffin now, already have Phoenix, when are we getting a Dragon?

Obviously that sort of haul is more of an outlier, but what a ripper considering the picks that they had. Not too often you have a 100% pick rate in the ND with four players who will all most likely play 200+ games.

And we were keen on Ryan at the time, so the draft media were telling us.
