I reckon we've got plenty of options for that type of player: ANB, Chandler, Hunter, Kozz, Windsor, Spargo etc. We've got plenty of decent runners fitness wise on the list, most with solid skills albeit none with elite speed imo, and Baker wouldn't really bring that.
The issue is we don't use them effectively. Throwing squillions at Baker doesn't fix that problem
Mac Andrew. Height: 202cm Weight: 84kg.... we have to get on our bikes after him... but he is not ready for the kind of coin i'm talking about for Liam Baker.It's stay at Tigers and become captain, or go home to WA. No point putting any energy into trying to poach him. I think we have bigger needs as well. Need to replace May, top up the mids and find a forward or two that can kick a goal. If we're throwing that kind of money around, try and poach Callaghan from GWS? Or Mac Andrew from GC. Hell, go after Sam Taylor if we have that kind of money to spend! (which i don't think we do)
Mid-fields win you matches,. and class in the midfield is dynamite.If we got that much money and space in the cap let's try shake Curnow loose instead lol.
I don't agree, that he will only stay at tigerland...It's stay at Tigers and become captain, or go home to WA. No point putting any energy into trying to poach him.

Windsor is a goodun, but is more-so a straight-line capable type; Baker with his agility/speed combination is a need imv.I reckon we've got plenty of options for that type of player: ANB, Chandler, Hunter, Kozz, Windsor, Spargo etc. We've got plenty of decent runners fitness wise on the list, most with solid skills albeit none with elite speed imo, and Baker wouldn't really bring that.

For a ruck, I reckon either Meek or Reeves will be very gettable from Hawthorn pretty quickly. Both can play but there really is only room for one of them in that 22.
KPD is interesting. Think there is a quiet league wide shortage of quality players here, and you can point to a couple of teams really struggling to fill the gap: North are obvious, but plenty of teams only have 1 or have 2-3 B-C graders in there. The fact that the likes of Cordy, Zerk-Thatcher, Frost and Frampton are holding down key posts says a lot. Not saying I have a solve but itd be nice for us to either develop one of our own or find a gem from the state leagues.
No but it also may not be a this year problem. Reality is it could fall off quickly for him at any point over the next few years now. I don’t think ruck is something we worry about this year though assuming all is well for him this season.Meek or Reeves aren’t joining us whilst Max is still here.
I think you had him confused with Conor Iduns**t I didn't realise he was that small. I thought he was a third tall size.

I think we just keep a constant eye. Which club has two clear #1 rucks, and is one gettable?
Yeah and apart from Gawn most premiership rucks are absolute trashI don’t even think we need a ruck from another club. Our ruck development is historically excellent I’m happy to not invest any sort of capital into that position post Gawn.
No doubt.Yeah in list meetings I hope ruck is the absolute last thing they talk about
I think you had him confused with Conor Idun
Yeah, can see that happening. If Cummng wasn't injured he'd be playing wing ahead of Wehr, I'd think .... very much doubt he'll leave. But one or two guys stuck in the 2s could be gettableI actually think I confused him with Jack Buckley

Next itemNo doubt.
Item 1:
Goody - I think we should discuss the ruck situation
Everyone else - no, shut up
Goody - but
Everyone else - We said shut up
Hey Goody! I am a 33yo unfit couch potato! Pick me! You know you want too!Next item
Goody- "32 year old half retired key forward anyone?"
NahHey Goody! I am a 33yo unfit couch potato! Pick me! You know you want too!
Verrall coming along nicely, even showing he can go forward and kick some goals in the VFL, averaging around a goal a game so far this year.For a ruck, I reckon either Meek or Reeves will be very gettable from Hawthorn pretty quickly.
