Macrae looks half cookedAnother slow, accumulating mid with average foot skills? No thanks
There is no chance he is playing down back it isn't going to happen unless we aiming bottom 4. He is handy up forward at times especially when we playing bottom side and need one of our key forward rested. Silvagni will be like Whitnall not Lance used as spare just like Graeme was.Is Weitering quick and athletic? I reckon like Jack heās just a smart footballer
I like to look for reasons why as opposed to why not but thatās just me

What would a trade look like for Ryan? Your 1R is too high but 2R is too low.
Youāre right about Petch. He needs to be plugged into a system where he can use his speed, heās also deceptively tall and very good overhead. Again your 2R is probably too much.
Carlton have asked about Barrass but no idea how much further those talks have gone/not gone. Barrass has nominated Hawks but heās pretty keen to get to Victoria regardless (his siblings now live there) and Eagles and Hawks remain a decent distance apart.
If we do this I may spontaneously combustFuture 1st for Ryan & your future 2nd:
Obviously, they'd be replaced.That would be cutting our midfield depth very fine.
And nobody will take Williams unless we cover a big chunk of his salary. May as well keep him.
In his prime was one of the best kicks in the comp - dropped off a bit obviously but still better than average imo. Age would be my concern + salaryAnother slow, accumulating mid with average foot skills? No thanks
This I dont think he has a position in our best 22. Kind of what I think about Silvagni.Depends what we get for them...
Makes sense... but there are two problems with Williams:
1 - He is another who is perennially injured
2 - We don't know what to do with him... we brought him in to play as a mid - didn't work. Play him at hb - he can't defend for shit. Play him forward... worked for a bit... but he hasn't impacted the sb much in his last 4 games so who knows how he'll go next year? Then we put him back in the back line in the ef...
There was definitely a player there, much like Dow, SPS, Fisher and Stocker I feel our development failed them. Overcoached their instinct away...Poor Lachie Obrien i thought he was ok got cut a year with a contract remaining. I thought some club would give him a life line. I guess with Holland Brothers,Cerra, Binns ,Acres and Camporeale coming in their was no spots also with Hewett, Kennedy. Cottrell etc
We will see the real Cerra and Motlop next year if they over their injury we will either see how good they are or if they just a tease. Motlop looked great pre season just like how Cameron Polson did but shit can happen injury and deliberate pandemics created can create poor performances. You can bet the US Election going on nasty crap is going to hit us all already Elton Musk talking about it wait for the Black Swan effect no tin foil hat needed.There would be a range of reasons for the drop off. No doubt Cerra, injury and drop in form would contributeā¦
Still doesnāt mean Cerra is a gun (yet), heās no where near the levels of Cripps, Walsh, Bont, Daicos or the other gun midfieldersā¦
No to either from meFuture 1st for Ryan & your future 2nd:
Petrucelle straight swap for Jack Carroll is about right.
Secondedā¦No to either from me
I think it might have been Arrow that said he'd enquire about Burgiel... second that or take a future pickSecondedā¦
I actually think both of those trades are about right, weād look to contribute some salary too.Future 1st for Ryan & your future 2nd:
Petrucelle straight swap for Jack Carroll is about right
Future 1st for Ryan & your future 2nd:
Petrucelle straight swap for Jack Carroll is about right.
No chanceRichmond
Would release Saady too.Would take Caleb Daniel before McRae, Austin should suss him out, disgruntled mid season and can help us change lanes & angles coming out of defense with his kicking.
Pretty sure we've already seen the best of them, injuries or not. Both are limited.We will see the real Cerra and Motlop next year if they over their injury we will either see how good they are or if they just a tease. Motlop looked great pre season just like how Cameron Polson did but shit can happen injury and deliberate pandemics created can create poor performances. You can bet the US Election going on nasty crap is going to hit us all already Elton Musk talking about it wait for the Black Swan effect no tin foil hat needed.
Wrong !!!!If Richmond is willing to trade a first this year for our future first I'd rather just take an extra kid in this draft than trade for Houston.
will he do it though. big ego he hasBest post Iāve read for ages
Cerra - Has shown the consistency of an average midfielder, he aināt no gun (yet)
Williams - has shown SFA at Carlton
Motlop - Has shown no consistency and lacks effort. To the extent most here would trade him. He aināt no star player.
I agree with your summation on Walsh & Hewettā¦ Ollie showed a bit this year in the last 4-5 weeks when he got released off the wingā¦
