Wouldn’t be shocked if he’s right, probably at our second pick
Fair to say it’s not a pick that I’d find inspiring

Seems like another too good for SANFL, not good enough for AFL type player.

I reckon we’re committed to Turray with our first unless someone like Beecken slides
The MSD isn't very inspiring anyway. These are all players who have been overlooked 4+ times before.

... yet there are MSD playing AFL...
Given the number of players we need to replace, we should take the free hits.
I'm not saying that we shouldn't give it a go... just don't set your expectations too high.
Based on players selected in previous MSDs (league-wide), there's a 90% probability that the player selected will be worse than Parnell.

Got to be in it to win it... & given how many vacancies we have, this is the time we should be using it.
It's not like these list spots won't be filled at the end of the year though.
A pick at the arse end of the national draft is no less a pick than a MSRD pick.
Will depend on which players nominate a 6 month vs 18 month contract.

Sam durham has given me faith that you can find talent in the Mid-Season draft.

I think its more we re-sign players instead of picking an arse end pick
Some are saying we should take 3 midseason rookie picks. I'm not crazy about the idea of filling up 3 list spots like that.

Durham is an absolute ripper.
Jai Newcombe is also a top 5 player at his club.
Marlion Pickett was playing some great footy before he went all Oceans 11 from Wish.
John Noble is pretty handy and very unlucky not to play in a premiership last year.
Ned Moyle will still likely have a nice career somewhere. He’s a better ruckman than a lot of current starting AFL rucks and just needs to be traded.
Peatling is turning into a really handy player.
Jordan Boyd has looked good for the Blues in recent times.
D’ambrosio is starting to rack it up.
Definitely some gems to be found. But yeah, McLennan ain’t it.
I was today years old when I realised the title to this thread was list Mismanagement. Always thought it was management.

He should fit right in then given almost a 3rd of our first choice 22 is like this.
At least we'd only be using a MSD pick on him. We've spent first rounders on these sorts of players before.

Maybe but he would immediately be in the top 4 or 5 kicks (maybe higher) on our list. Good one on one player, composure is also top end and very good overhead for a player his size. Could do worse I think.
If both Welsh and Turray develop into AFL standard players, would we say a forward line of Turray/RT/Fog/Welsh is too tall?

Hmm, yeah I was thinking we could make it work like Ess has Wright/Jones/Langford/Stringer in the same forward line, but two 200cm guys might be too much

A bigger deal out west.
I reckon you could make it work. The big reason is TT doesn't play like a 200 cm player and more built towards being a classical CHF, and from what I've seen/know of Murray is he does.
Let TT roam up the field, keep Murray deep (+ give him second ruck duties) and play Welsh/Fog as a third/fourth tall with one of them roaming and one set up deeper. The risk is you end up with a structure like ours in 2017 where its very feast or famine, but if you get the smalls and the outside game right, it should work.

I think we pretty easily could have fit a second MSD pick even if it was an 18 month contract
Out of contract rookies: Parnell, Borlase, Hamill. Delist two for Murray and a second pick (Parnell and Hamill most likely).
We were also running 38 senior and 4 rookies, so could go up to 6 rookies through delisting some seniors if we wanted rookie/SSP/MSD slots
Should be moving at least five players off the senior list (McHenry, Gollant, Bond (all delisted), Himmelberg (FA), Smith (retired)) anyway
The rest of the out of contract players retained. Cook 2 year deal, Berry 1 year deal, Walker 1 year if he wants to continue. Sholl's contract would depend on if he's in the team at the end of the year which he rarely has been
