Degoey. Might be too late but it's worth asking the questionNeed mid bull most.
Takes off pressure in backline as winning it at the clearances and not constantly under siege.
Yeah we do. Just can't get them it seems.
What a lot of rubbishNeed to be pro active with 14 and 17 and get someone in with them. We are ahead of where we are expected to be so strike now! A big bodied mid would be great, A ruck would be great too (ladhams) and i would say a key forward but we are going to have to roll with buddy, ried and McDonald for next year.
Spewing that mid wont be Hopper. De Goey would be nice but i think pies have come to thier senses. Maybe even matt crouch if its for a bag of chips.
Anyway I think its wishful thinking as we just used the cash we had in bud, Lloyd is probably gone and we will just draft 14 and 17 for cheap list spots if nothing else.
No its not.Degoey. Might be too late but it's worth asking the question
Being too risky isnt getting it done either.Need to take a risk. Playing it safe isn't going to get the job done.

How so?What a lot of rubbish
Exactly. This is the same list most were so optimistic about 24 hours ago. You'd think we are Norf reading some of the posts here (mind you the way we played today, they would've beaten us....).You lose a grand final and resort to slingshot trading and drafting. Yeah. That will make a difference.
We brought in a bloke who doesn't appear to have his head too screwed on last year who hasn't even proven himself.Great player, not too fussed on him as a person based off of multiple off field incidents.

What's the worst that can happen? Lose a grand final by 100 points? Been there dome that.
Degeoy and Warner would be a devastating 1-2 punch in the middle
Think most just want to bolster what we have. We had a great year, way better then expected. Would love to ad the cherries to go one better next year. You know lions and pies are both already doing this.Exactly. This is the same list most were so optimistic about 24 hours ago. You'd think we are Norf reading some of the posts here (mind you the way we played today, they would've beaten us....).
The two finals before that he was bog. More than what most of our current mob can say for themselves.Also had what? 4 touches in the prelim vs us?
He is a very mercurial footballer.
We need a bread and butter contested beast for a full game. Time machine and 2021 JOK would be right on the money
And when that fails what is your plan B or C or D. And when you run out of salary cap what is your plan Z?We brought in a bloke who doesn't appear to have his head too screwed on last year who hasn't even proven himself.

Yep, I don’t think a ‘gorilla defender’ would have made much difference today. We lost the game starting in the midfield, that’s where we need to concentrate on.I understand many are now desperate for a 200cm 100kg gorilla defender. But I'm going to go against the tide and say we don't need one. Plus I don't think there is one readily available anyway.
What we need is for our boys to have played to their usual intensity today. They were completely off. Smashed at the contest, loose marking of opponents, dropping off tackles, fumbling, not working hard enough - the list was endless. King Kong at FB would have made no difference today. Any KPD and defence in general will wilt under the quality and quantity of inside 50s the Cats midfield was generating.
By all means, let's draft a KPD or trade one in if available. But let's not kid ourselves as to where this game was lost. Our midfielders are the ones who need to do the most self reflection after today.
Degoey is the answer. Why even have this thread. Just write DeGoey as the answer to world hunger.The two finals before that he was bog. More than what most of our current mob can say for themselves.
We put work into degoey last week. Good luck doing that if he played along side warner
I know we will just run out the same next year. Maybe Parker fires in a gf just for something different.And when that fails what is your plan B or C or D. And when you run out of salary cap what is your plan Z?
