He would be a huge upgrade on Sholl..
We are absolutely stacked now though for Half Backs...
Milera, Hinge, Cumming, Nankervis, Jones, Smith (
), Dawson (if needed), Max M, Oscar RyanMilera will be lucky to be on the list in 13 monthsHe would be a huge upgrade on Sholl..

Yup - next year is absolutely make or break for him.
Our club is generally piss weak with long term players. More likely we delist Bond than Miler.
Well perhaps, but Wayne is OOC and if he can't get himself on the park he's in deep shit.
We wouldn't have targeted Cumming if we trusted Milera IMO
Laird needs to play there tooHe would be a huge upgrade on Sholl..

We’ve got a number of marginal OOC players, some will survive. Tex, Smith, Schoey, Bond, Burgess, Milera, Crouch, Murphy.
The amount of dead weight we have on the list and people focussing on Milera, who has genuine talent? Genuinely weird bandwagon for everyone to be jumping on.
NWM for me. He looked really good this last season.
99 games in 9 seasons and a stack of horrid injuries.
What's genuinely weird is people who think he's going to walk back into the side like he's a star of the game.
He isn't.
Tex and Smith retire IMO
That's 2, there's 6 others. Crouch probably gets another year, but that's still 5. We've made minimum the last 2 years and we're not flushed with draft collateral next year.
Who's saying that? Think there's a fair bit of middle ground between 'walk back into the side like he's a star of the game' and being delisted.
Crouch and Bond PROBABLY get another year
The rest fall out of contract at a bad time (for them). I suspect we go to the free agent pool again.
He's closer to being delisted than he is playing AFL again

The thing is the benefit of free agents is they don’t use up draft capital. If we managed our list better and made some tough calls, we should be able to bring in free agents and still draft.
We’ve ****ed this draft up, trading 45 to next year is evidence of that.

ROB surely hasn’t got 2 more years?
Him and Strachan are both OOC I think, but they don't count as they'll be replaced by same type.
I'm annoyed, but I'm not getting too worked up about it TBH. The Smith call was VERY dumb mind you
Had we not brought in 3 best 22 talents I'd be more inclined to melt
Free agent and delist candidate.
I think it’ll more be ‘lacks opportunity to crack into the side after getting back to speed, given form of various half-backs, and looks to move to a club with less HB depth’
He won’t be delisted, but he might well move on his own accord

To build a premiership list, especially given our history of stuffing things up, you’ve got to eliminate stupid mistakes.
Bringing in 3 quality players doesn’t mean you can’t participate in this draft especially when we only used one pick from this draft to secure those players.
Everyone is raving about the draft and yet we’ve got one pick in it and moved 45 to next next year, we are the 15th ranked team going through a rebuild and yet we are tight on list spots? That’s just poor list management, there’s no sugar coating it.

They're clearly blinded by the numbers
We're inexperienced overall in terms of games played so they didn't want to let Smith go. Were happy to keep him, even though they know he's declining.
The thing is, our inexperience is exaggerated. Worrell for instance is a mature body, calm head. That's experience. He doesn't have games played though, for various factors (injuries and our ineptitude).
Hinge has had injuries and couldn't break into a stronger Brisbane side early. Doesn't give us significant games played but is experienced by any meaningful measure.
A bunch of our players have fewer games played than they should because we've selected cautiously in previous years (we don't now pleasingly) and dicked around with duds for years who we've since moved past.
We don't differentiate between "games played" and the mature, calming influence that experience supposedly provides. Max for instance displays surety under pressure that you want your leaders to show. Old head, young shoulders. We don't have faith that he can fill the Smith leadership void.
What does experience look like on field? We only see the numbers

Yep and why I challenged Carmo to point out which inexperienced players let us down and cost us games.
I would have thought the players who had a more negative say on our performance this year were Tex, down on 2023 huge year, Laird eventually shunted from the midfield, Rob dropped and missing top 10 B&F again, Murphy sucking and Smith apologising to his teammates and being dropped.
