Tomlinson?Probably not Lobbe but there might be another tall out there that we believe could be become a defender like he has? Need to look at all options

Been playing defence at the Dees for some time. Not great, not horrible. Probably a better back up than Young and Durdin but you wouldn't invest any draft capital or salary cap on him. Yes as a DFA.Tomlinson?
Next year we get back Jack and I believe OāKeefe will step up. Lemmey is another option
Kemp should be an option
Not a position Iām worried about
Perhaps being 'worried' or not is the wrong way to look at things.Next year we get back Jack and I believe OāKeefe will step up. Lemmey is another option
Kemp should be an option
Not a position Iām worried about
Loved him in the draft. Slow getting going with injuries. Why are you raising him now?Iād be making inquiries re: Phoenix Foster from Geelong.
I think with some further development heād be an ideal swingman going forward.
Hi. Welcome to our board. Thanks for the suggestion. I like it...Eagles get carrol and pick 71 for pick 3
you mean carrol and 59 for pick 71 yes but maybe 61 instead idkHi. Welcome to our board. Thanks for the suggestion. I like it
Yep, that's fair, great suggestion.you mean carrol and 59 for Harley and pick 71 yes
I'm having a joke. But I think if Carroll wants to move, or if Carlton think he is surplus to future needs, then your original suggestion doesn't sound too far off the mark, although I'd prefer just a straight swap of 59 for Carroll. Again, welcome to our board, we have some good mods here...you mean carrol and 59 for pick 71 yes but maybe 61 instead idk
thankyou id prefer pick 71 with it to get more picks as we need them.I'm having a joke.

Ok, done!thankyou id prefer pick 71 with it to get more picks as we need them.

Jack Silvagni will be not in our best 23 he was on the way out in 2023. He is also coming off a big injury that make you slower example Kreuzer. I believe it may be his final season with us in 2025 especially if the younger players on 3rd year come on. I think you having too much dreams.JSOS has bulked up significantly while he's been rehabbing the knee - if we don't have him training with the backline during the off-season I'll hurl.
Is he exactly what our backline needs? No - we'd love a 200cm bloke with sticky hands, an elite kick, incredible acceleration and the ability to read the play like Magnus bloody Carlsen.
But he's on the list already, he's as tall as many other "key-ish" defenders, he has excellent field kicking and game sense, and he gives 120% every game he plays. Plus he's spent enough time forward that he can be swung up there if we need to change things up or cover an injury in-game, and he's passable as a supporting ruck rotation.
If he was fit, I'd be playing him ahead of Kemp and Marchbank without question. I think that by next season his spot up forward will be almost impossible to reclaim, he's simply not dangerous enough as a third tall to draw a tall defender, and I think we're better off with a variety of smalls at the feet of Charles and Harry rather than playing an average third tall forward for the sake of some height.
Repurpose JSOS as a defender - start Weitering, Gov and JSOS down back, play Kemp off the bench as a utility at both ends, retain Young as our contracted depth option (coverage for Weitering missing, or two of the other three). Draft and develop a KPD with a late/rookie pick behind that lot.
Focus our early draft on speed and/or ball use at the coalface and ahead of the ball. Xavier Lindsay, Joe Berry, Tobie Travaglia, Taj Hotton, Cooper Hynes, Cristian Moraes - there are plenty of options.
JSOS, Weitering, Cowan
Saad, McGovern, Newman
Hollands*, Cripps, Acres
TDK, Walsh, Hewett
Hollands, McKay, Williams
Motlop, Curnow, Owies
I/C: Kemp, Cerra, Cincotta, Fogarty
SUB: any of Boyd, Kennedy, Carroll, Hollands*, Cottrell, Durdin, Fantasia, or the developing kids (Moir, Wilson, Binns etc.)
*Wait and see on Doc, but I'd consider him taking Hollands' wing on his return.
If rumors are true that we are targeting a third tall (like we were supposedly in for Hayward) it sort of suggests jsos future in that role at least could be in jeopardy. And Iām not sure where else jack can play a role.Jack Silvagni will be not in our best 23 he was on the way out in 2023. He is also coming off a big injury that make you slower example Kreuzer.

Pre-season he was first reserve for about three roles.JSOS is exactly what we could do with now.
Heāll be a valuable part of next yearās campaign.
His last game he was BOG against the top of the ladder team as he took them apart.Jack Silvagni will be not in our best 23 he was on the way out in 2023.

While it wouldnt surprise should he fall down the pecking order, he'll get games due to his ability to play a couple of roles.Jack Silvagni will be not in our best 23 he was on the way out in 2023.

Not one I'm worried about either but someone posted that that is what the club is looking at instead of a KPD (God knows why, I think another KPD is almost non-neg IMO)Next year we get back Jack and I believe OāKeefe will step up. Lemmey is another option

Jack will impress in 2025. People forget that he really wasnāt playing his usual role in 2023 and had to play everywhere and rucked more than he ever should have.His last game he was BOG against the top of the ladder team as he took them apart.
You canāt tell me heās not a better 3rd tall/back up ruck than Kennedy.
