Aside from all the trade targets / free agents we have been linked to, we should be in the market for Elliot Himmelberg. With Lewis to miss most of next season, we need another tall presence in attack who can give Meek a chop out in the ruch. Yes Chol is doing that at present but at the expense of our forward line.

Would be very much like the David Hale

move which reaped great benefits.

The topper is he is a free agent and costs us zero in terms of draft capital

On the upside he costs us no draft capital, on the downside, he’s a spud

 

[Topiary]

That game showed we need a KPF more than a KPD

Both.

I cant recall anyone doing cartwheels when we recruited Hale but i would say it was a pretty shrewd move.

You also would have been Meeks biggest supporter when he trader O'Meara for him.............

He is an actual potato though

He is an actual potato though

I thought the same but have actually been watching him closely this year - he fills a need and is getting better with age.

He has panels on Billy Frampton who bounced around 3 clubs and is now a premiership player. Get someone in the right system......

 

[Mrzohs]

Both.

What position do you see Weddle playing next season and in the years to come ?

Big bodied midfielder alah David Mundy who was also originally drafted as a defender

He’s played 40 games in 8 seasons and shown nothing. You could use your argument to make a case for any spud that’s out of contract.

 

[Brucie Buffer]

Had never heard of Perryman before I heard we were chasing him, not really interested based off today anyway

I guess we should thank Jesse Hogan

and GWS for showing everyone we are in desperate need of
A. a full back and
B. a full forward.

Umm we came out at the start of this season saying we need a kpd a kpf and another speedy outside mid. That hasn't changed. Fingers crossed Barrass is one of those 3

Would like to see Scaife get a run soon to see if he can be the FF we need. He has some attributes that I feel will do well as an AFL Full Forward.

 

[FB19]

Just get Barrass.

DGB.
Do Get Barrass.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Just reported on 7 that we've told Barrass we're getting Battle and vice versa. If it's true, we must be confident of getting them both.

7 New Melbourne have made no mention of this on the uploaded vids from their footy reports.

I didnt mean within the club. Just a good example for any on here who think we are almost there.

Took the Wizard to the cleaners today.

It was Theo Doropoulos.

 

[Hawk the Talk]

If the Saints don’t announce that Battle has signed this week then it’s absolutely game on still. They’ll be desperate to give the members some good news after that spanking.

 

[FB19]

So the identified gaps in our list really hurt us today. One of the KP filled would have won us the game. If we want a tilt at it next year and why not the comp is now so even then we do what it takes for Barrass. Amon needs to go back on a wing he’s no defender and maybe weddle is the right side wing. Right now those positions are badly letting us down with Mass playing more of a defensive role which I actually like.

 

[Brucie Buffer]

If he hasn’t physically signed what they fished up tonight wouldn’t have done their chances any good.

 

[Brucie Buffer]

The Wiz didn’t have a great day on the stats sheet, Ginni had a lot more possessions but I thought Wiz felt like he had more impact in patches. He kicks those goals and pulls down that mark and not a bad day given the opportunities.
In the last quarter when they were dominating and getting all their rebound from the back line Perryman was barely sighted.
Not fair to judge him off one game but I don’t go out of my way to watch the Giants, was expecting to see a bit more given the money that is claimed to be thrown at him by clubs. Was left a bit underwhelmed

Could you clarify the vice versa? We told Barrass we’re getting Battle and then Barrass told us we’re getting Battle?

Ginni was clearly carrying his injury. Combined with Jack and Bruest disaster. As was Sic. We have got to send out our best, let alone fully fit. If Jack and Bruest are our best we are truly struggling.

Agree with most of your post, but Jack played a defensive job on the best defender in the comp, took him out of the game and kicked four, reckon he was one of our best today.
I don’t think both Breust and Jack offer more than playing one of them.
