Cooney made a good point on Armchair Critics last night after the SCG game in that Luko has shown sfa consistency as a KPF thus far, and in fact might be worth a shot more as an athletic wing man or intercepting defender.
Just food for thought.

No I just meant we should be looking far and wide.

List management team should be shot if they gave up a 2nd for Rosas. He could be good but currently isn’t. Late 3rd at best considering he has 1 more year to go on his contract
Hill was traded for a mid 40’s pick from memory, certainly wouldn’t be paying more than that for Rosas but I’d be putting the hat in the ring for sure

Disappointing that some of the draftees over last few years still haven’t shown much to get a call up to seniors.

Massive improvement on Young and S Durdin.
On field leadership for our backline.

Walsh has gone from hero to zero (or close) this season.
Reckon his back or something else is bothering him.
Cerra from top 5 B & F to zero.
TDK from elite ruckman to injured.... and Pitto's presently MIA.
Need a young, quick mid to add to the mix....
Our good is still very, very good.
Our not so good isn't getting belted either....
Just must stop producing for only 1 - 1.5 quarters...
Due Diligence is different to "Targeting"
If our LM team are professional they will be speaking with everyone. I would be disappointed if they didn't catch up with Haynes and see where he is at and what he is looking to do.
He provided a bit extra mongrel to a team that already had it but his inclusion took it to another level.
I was shocked at the time but it was a great inclusion, just ask Dermie! LOL
I remember when Cowan was given the #2. Diesel said that it was only on the condition that he develops into a hard-a55 midfielder, so hopefully that is still the goal.

I am much happier with the strike rate over the last few years than pre-SOS.
Moir (still in first year but worth the gamble on a potential point of difference player)
Billy Wilson (first year player all about speed)
Ollie Hollands big tick
L Cowan big tick (maybe accidentally genius *
with Tasmanian side)Binns (depth, accumulates)
Lemmey (developing tall)
Cincotta big tick
Motlop big tick
C Durdin (pick in late 30s, not the worst but depth, tradeable)
J Carroll (pick in 40s) (decent No.6 midfielder, tradeable)
We have gone from consistent and persistent misses on our first pick and duds at subsequent picks to generally having good first picks and some hits with our later picks.

Our 2nd would be a pick in the mid-late 30s. Personally think that's about right but each to their own

He shows nothing in how he plays the game that suggests he'll do anything for us at the source that we don't already have, and he's not got the ability to accelerate and track that you want from an elite winger.
He's in his best position, and he's not a heavy accumulator. We need real speedsters with enough contest ability and physical strength that they can at least halve aerial 1v1s, than can also dispose well at pace.
He will not transform into an elite mid, and that's an even worse spend of the money, worse than what we tried to do with Williams.

Struggling to understand why a guy who has never lifted his endurance levels his entire senior career should command a 2nd round pick.
Assuming he's not injured, he can't stay in games, and now he's less involved than ever in all phases of play.

I guess I'm just still in the mindset that we're sitting 2nd on the ladder so our 2nd would practically be an early 3rd, even though we're now in 8th. But I understand the opinion that he's not worth that, personally I think it would be about right under contract but each to their own.
I find it hard to judge GCS players value and future prospects as theres so many examples of players dramatically improving after departing that club, our own Elijah being a prime example of one. I think Rosas would be a good get if we got him away from that club.

That might be true, but this guy has a long history of this and is now dealing with an injury-riddled season. He's barely worth a pick in the 50-70 range.

I haven’t seen him play yet. That’s great news!
I'd be looking at Gold Coast's list. There are a lot of top picks there, many of whom haven't developed. If they'd seen what we've done with Elijah Hollands, they might realize we're a decent place to be.
Rosas has a lot of talent, but hasn't done the hard yards. Could we turn him around? I'm not so sure, but we can't do any worse than GC has done with him.
As GC has these Academy kids coming through regularly now, is there anyone who feels their spot might be vulnerable? I think there just might be.
Levi Casboult: he probably won't be getting another contract at the Suns, for all that he's been a decent player there. Do we consider him for 2's leadership? He can't do any worse than Phillips did.

They’ve got D.Rioli in their sights by all reports, which may need to come with Maurice Jnr (Rosas out?).
Rosas was fumbly late in the game vs WCE last week.
There could be others that they’re targeting for some mature talent.
Luko potentially on the outer with his uncompetitiveness. Could be close to a mobile Charlie that we’re chasing, both decent field kicks anyway.
Academy picks again.
+ their list numbers may still need to be reduced from the increase allowed with their concessions.

For me it’s Bergman. If he wants to get to Victoria, we should be putting our hat in the ring.
He’s just at it hard and uses it pretty well most of the time. A midfield role is beckoning for him with the Blues.
Give me Bergman and Stone and I’ll be very happy.

Is this a reference to a wingman from WA?
