It will be good to see them play, even if they turn into good AFL footballers at other clubs like Ben Keays
They could always come back after they establish themselves
Sam Day is the one we should try and sign for me. He can take a mark on the lead and is a tall big body who can crash a pack. He's a okay set shot for goal too from memory. Wouldn't be against him being more of a backup and us trying Smith/Hipwood (or other combos) first.
We can then bank the savings from Joe leaving to ensure no one slips out of the squad due to salary cap pressure.
Alternatively our future first for Riccardi is also something I'd just throw out there to see what happens.
Problem with Day is that he's always injured. With our medical team, I'd back him in to play after McCarthy, Adams and Daniher.
Riccardi is not happening this year. Too late in the trade period and we don't have the picks.
