He would be for me, as I like Moore playing deep and central and Billy can only play deep, where as Tomlinson usually plays a bit higher up the ground. I think he fits better with Moore and Howe.

He's 31. You'd kind of want him to be best 23 if we brought him in ..
Thanks.I looked him up on the Melbourne site and saw that he’s 31 years old,though.Do we really want any more 30 plus year olds on our list right now?
Based on the last two seasons it means we make a granny at least in ‘25 with (footballer formerly nicknamed Tay) on the list. Happy to pay a 3rd for that.
Doesn’t mean Tay gets a run though.
Would be some record for the bloke!

I reckon the club is all in for next year and he would be more than handy.

Not unless Perryman chooses Port.
Manic I think the round 24 game really should be largely ignored, arguably the most bruise free game I have ever seen live.
Just on that, I am invested in Ed A being a success as anyone, but we need to temper his excellent game against the laughable intensity we faced that night.

it's because the club is going all in for next season and he would be more than handy. He was pretty good against us in round 24He's 31. You'd kind of want him to be best 23 if we brought him in ..

He's just a stop gap. A younger one who could step in would cost picks. This way we fill a spot and can afford to buy better youth. It's the way to be able to target the now and the future - top up with FA and oldies and keep your recruiting chips for longer term prospects. That's what I'd do with where our list is at. We've got to be targetting the now as we're not far off and we also have to be targetting the future because we're old.

Round 24. When we had no tall forwards? And kicked 15.13 ?

I just remember thinking that tommo was a real nuisance against us that game. If what we have waiting in the wings is our only option, then tommo is better than them. Ed A should be a good player but you're spot on about that game. It was only one game also. Let's hope it's a sign of things to come

I don't think we have a better option atm though and either does the club by the looks of it. We wanted Keane and that says they have real concerns for our defence. Tommo is easily worth a year or 2 for free and very little moneyRound 24. When we had no tall forwards? And kicked 15.13 ?

The Bugs and Daffy duck season/rabbit season cartoons are priceless classics.
They are now considered politically incorrect, even in the US, where you can carry around assault rifles.

I have no clue who else the club is speaking to, so wouldn't know if there are better options out there.
My response was to someone who asked if he would be in our best 23. As a 31 year old, you'd be hoping so, was really my point.

Yep!
Get some free agents in at zero draft cost, and get better picks in this year's draft.
It looks like Perryman is coming to us - he'll cost a bit in $$, but no draft picks.

I think Rampe, Lloyd and Cunningham will be up to 4 if they lose this week?

I can't see Sydney losing
I'm not 100% but i'm pretty certain Josh Gabelich just said on SEN Richards is about to head over and tour Ports facilities.
Perryman is a good average AFL player. Definitely worthwhile bringing in as a free agent but not a game changer.
Lord is possibly the worst set shot kick in the comp. No thanks.
Tomlinson as cover is pretty uninspiring, but for nothing he is OK. Would prefer him to Frampton who really loses his head often in games.
Peatling will be hard to get. Lots of clubs will want him. Tough ball winning midfielder coming into his prime. Good tackler too. He may peak around this and be pretty average, or he may go to another level with added midfield responsibility and be a very good footballer. He is what we lack around the ball and would think he would be our best target.

Yep. You'd think he would tour the facilities before making a decision.
