Not defensive or creative enough for HB ...

Picked up 3 Brownlow votes last night playing across HB - 22 disposals, 5 tackles and ... 13 marks.

The ultimate sweeper, reads the ball really well in the air. His main shortcoming, apart from his inconsistency, is his disposal - which becomes something of a moot point if all he has to aim at is the goals.

Tom Bell & Carltons 3rd > Brisbane
James Aish > Hawthorn
Hawthorns 1st > Carlton

Reckon brisbane would trade directly with the Hawks. Then trade their 2nd for Bell

That would be the smart move
 
Bell's had a decent year IMO
Brissy need the picks for Academy boys and the Blues third will be in the 38-42 region
Aish only worth a late first IMO
 
Jack Redden > West Coast
Lycett/Sinclair & West Coast 2nd > Brisbane

If Leuenberger leaves through FA, leaves the Lions very bare in the ruck department
Lycett not getting games with Sinclair currently the more favored of the 2

Just putting hypotheticals out there to see what people think

Why wouldn't Brisbane draft a young ruckman instead as a back-up to Martin / West / Smith?

Pick 36-37 is quite late for Redden.
 
Lycetts 23

Sinclair is 26
Lycett is 23
Wouldnt say either are very old
Both are ready made

If Martin goes down with injury you have your replacement right there
West, I've thought has been ordinary since moving to you

I personally would be very happy with Lycett and 36/37 for Redden. Martin is a top 3 ruck in the comp but we've got no guarantees that he and his partner don't relocate next year, Westy is okay but limited and injury prone and Smith is seemingly a long way from being ready for seniors and I don't think is a certainty to be on the list next year or beyond.

Lycett is the right age to be around if Stef does leave, or to take the mantle as number one after Stef leaves or in a couple of years if Stef decides to extend his contract (Please do, Stef). In the interim Lycett can slot into our squad as a relief ruck as he has demonstrated he can play up forward. I really like what I've seen from him.

Trent West played 10 out of the first 11 games for Brisbane last year as their first ruckman before injuring his ACL forcing him to the sidelines for twelve months. He is more than adequate replacement for Martin.

Schwab does want an extra ruckman as depth. I doubt Lycett or Sinclair would want to move to Brisbane as a second string or third string ruckman.

Brisbane could easily pick up someone such as Ayce Cordy as a rookie to act as a back-up ruckman for a couple of years behind Martin and West.

You must be deluded as well.
So you're admitting to not watching any Brisbane games in the last five years.

Agreed on the Redden stuff.
Hes worth more than lycett or sinclair

Lots of talk Stef Martin still wants back to Vic....

I'm he's easily worth a 1st and 2nd rd if not two 1sts

Thoughts?
