I am taking this as a positive, that Berry may be available.
2024 averages
Disposals: 7.23
Marks: 3.15
Goals: 0.31
Tackles: 1.08
Can see why we were interested...
Don't see it all.
His best return for the year was 1 goal. What are we expecting from?
Completely agree, he's the one bloke I don't want and just doesn't strike me as being a Walls type of pick.
I'd be going one of the Vic Country boys, so many better options to choose from.
About 5-8 games each year he's on the list before being delisted at the end of 2025 or 2026.
I think our list turnover will be higher next year so him getting a second year, whilst still a waste of time, would be possible.

Haha my exact thought, but like seriously what's the plan for Shanahan to be best 22 anytime in the next like 6 years if we get him. Between picking him up and supposedly having room for Warner still, I would start to become very suspicious on where Darcy is playing footy in 2026

I'm hoping its just us playing games to force someone's hand (Tigers maybe) to pick him ahead of us and leaving our preferred target. McAsey areas.
Some of the ones that we dont want turn out to be the best players. I for one didn't want Serong or Fyfe at the time. Look how that turned out.
If Shanahan is best available, I want him simple as that.

generally speaking I'm usually on board with best player available, but given the spot we're in demographic wise of doing a bit of a top up he just doesn't make sense to me.
We've got Amiss, Treacy and Jackson as the three talls who are all between 21 and 23 respectively, and the only easily foreseeable way that changes in a time frame that comes close to making sense is if the 26 year old Darcy isn't going to be moving on in the next year or two.
Unless that happens, or they are dead certain that Dogga will be moving into the midfield, it feels set up for him to move back home for chances after 3 years and playing 10 games
Thing is if he is best available and we dont take him then imagine him becoming a 60 goal a year key forward. Look what happened with Naughton sighhh
I suppose my point is that if the player is good enough we will find a spot for him regardless of if we have to many.
If having a stable pony as the last player on our list gets Kossie over the line. Sign me up
Thanks for that one. Seems to have a fair amount of knowledge. Has us taking Berry, Retschko (186cm wing, never heard of him before this), Warburton (185cm rebounding defender, also never heard of him before) and Angove (small forward).

Nice of you to drop by.

If the cards fall that way Berry or Lindsay for mine
My brain is doing weird things, and I'm trying to justify selecting Davis and Whitlock.
It gives us a goal kicking midfielder/forward to develop. And it gives us a genuine Pearce replacement with time on his side to mature.
Both high ceiling types. Both will need development time. Both playing roles that can keep our premiership window open
Fyfe-like and Pearce-like.
I'm prepared to throw the notional draft boards in the bin to get them.

Goes 18. Lindsay goes 16. I will be happy with either of these 2.

Fully on board with this. On Lindsay I se another Young ( and you can’t have too many of them ) and Berry gives that cheeky small forward goal kicker
Think there's enough around the mark that we'll get a good player that fits our medium term needs.
This board needs to be open minded what those needs are though. Our biggest needs now won't be our biggest needs in 3-4 years and the club anticipating future needs now is just good list management tbh.
If the immediate needs is depth in a certain position later in the draft might get us a gun mature ager that's likely more ready to contribute in 2025/2026.
