It’s counter to what we normally do, but there’s at least one obvious candidate this year in Johnson and I’d move Macrae as well (I doubt the club pull that one though). To my knowledge the rookie discount still applies along with the banking of cap space so that’s perhaps $250k carried forward. If there were ever a draft to load up (even with post 50 picks) it’s this one. Not to mention there’s a number of absolute cloggers at the lower end of the list.
Yeah, that's fair enough.
Weddle’s the one for me on those exact vibes. He’s built like a Greek god at 19!
Weddle has the same movement as Sicily to me
Such a powerful beast already

The club has done its best in the past to find guys a new home if they can, even if its for a nothing pick There will be some in that boat. If they can't, then the chop will follow
I’m referencing the likes of Eyre, Bytel, Sullivan and Long who won’t have any external interest. The two in no man’s land (without a contract and no obvious suitors) are Kreuger and McInnes. In the case of both you’re holding them until you know your available list spots and then delist them in time for the DFA period so they can find a new home. I wouldn’t bother trading for them, but who knows.
While I agree, I guess I'm a little confused how players delisted go on immediately to be SSPs or DFAs?
I love watching Baker play. Put him anywhere and you're winning that position. Will be fantastic for WCE if he gets thera and probably be captain within a couple of years. He won't get much press, but he'll be like Ward has been for GWS.
Club doesn't want to keep them. No club is willing to pay for them. Delist. Now a club may be interested enough to pick them up as a DFA - which is equivalent to the last choice in the draft - to fill a list spot that they'd kept open during trade week in case someone better came along. But more likely they pass through the DFA period and the draft period and then a club who is interested but not yet willing to commit might get them to audition for an SSP.
I'm with you - to me he's not that far off what Scott Burns was for us. Very good all round hard as nails player. He'd be a coaches dream.
Kouta was something else. A bit like Heeney in that he was an excellent player for a lot of years but it didn't feel like he was fulfilling his potential, and then one year it suddenly clicked and he was just on another plane. I think he had a knee injury in the second half of the year so he didn't win everything, but before then he had a patch of footy where he was like a cross between Cripps and Adam Goodes.
I'm far from an expert but he's got plenty of weapons
Young Ashcroft might be better than his brother, what a scary thought
Kouta was a freak show. Unbelievable talent.
Who's Sulzberger when he's not eating bratwurst
Could well be. He’s very good, flown a bit under the radar up until the last couple of weeks. Clear number 1 for mine.
He sounds like a German spy to me. Infiltrating our great game.
It just means you have a different definition of A grader to me, hence why I said you had a low bar.
Yeah, all good. I struggle to identify talent just like every other pundit. I just like to give an opinion but I'm far from right most times
You've got it the wrong way around. It's Sulzberger when they're not swallowing sausage and Sally when they are.
Sounds like Tracy from year 10 all over again. She was the only reason I attended 12 classes in year 10. Boy she was a good kisser
