Preview Changes vs. Pies - Round 24

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Pettys struggled but his last month has been really good. Clunking marks, kicking goals and being the player he is. Hes re-signed and I think he can do what we needed for him last year. Look forward mate

I will agree he has looked better the past month for sure. Might be finally getting over the foot by the time the year is done. Still, he should play backline next year, but I fully expect us to re-sign TMac to a ludicrous 2 year deal at this point since its the season apparently for all our vets getting excessive deals.

I'd like to see the winning percentage of Tomlinson in the side last several years. Seems like he plays in a lot of winning games and as soon as we lose 1, he's immediately dropped. I'd be reluctant to move him on. Handy back up with our tall stocks very low.

I agree to an extent would gladly keep him as depth on low dollars if he was OK with playing at Casey unless May or Petty were injured.

Seems like he would want to seek better opportunities elsewhere if possible though and we should facilitate that if he wants.

Be a shame to lose him. With the lack of depth we have in key talls I feel he's been a handy depth player

I agree, but see what happens in the off-season.

Few moving pieces. We might extend TMac for 1 year. Could go after Battle. Could secure another KPP. Might decide to start prepping Jefferson for an early debut and send Petty or Turner back.

Bit to play out with all those guys.

Give Jefferson a look and give Brown Sparrows spot he should have had from the start of the year.

From memory he wanted to leave last year but they did not want to trade him. He is out of contract at the end of this season and would be an UFA as well.

 

[SugarHealey]

Yep, much rather see Petty down back instead of Mayo or Tomo.

IF Mayo doesn't play, and IF Tomo does, with Petto back... could we finally get a look at Jeffo.?

I would really really like to get that free agent, Josh Battle.
A smart defender who has skills one on one, but also just as good in the intercept method.

I think hes a step up on Lever.

You beat me to it DP.
Agree totally with the highlighted, 1Yr for TMc... and get after the Axe.

Battle is going to Hawks by the sound of it. I think they've offered a ridiculous package.

All the noise says that, but have we tried our hardest yet, with Houston now cooler, this year.? I think we have the need and the cap space to do it.

The Hawks are after Battle F/A, Barrass, and every other player under the hot sun. They cannot afford all of them at this time.!

True. Rumours of a 6 year 800k+ contract. Seems steep to match or better. Good player and a type that we need. We'll see how it plays out.

According to Lever on SEN, BBB won’t be playing. Gave his all last week for Casey and has been limping around all week with a sore knee.
With May also ruled out it may only be one change. Probably Laurie in for Sparrow. I’d rather they give K Brown a full game or even AMW back in.

 

[Daemon]

Jefferwho?

 

[Dory_77]

Laurie in for Sparrow

Thrilling

AMW's 36 in the VFL not good enough for a dead rubber call-up

 

[Scythe94]

Glad Brown got those 10 minutes of experience this year

Biggest in for this weekend already confirmed:

Bottom right looks like they like gambling, revolver nightclub, breaking windshield wipers and cocaine. How good!

**** Harvest Snaps.

 

[schmuttt]

These changes are so underwhelming.

Wouldn’t be surprised if we see a bunch of younger players want to move in the next 12-24 months.

 

[Headless]

Only won us one game.

Who would have thought Goodwin would become way more cautious with injured players once finals are ruled out? Not me.
