Whoever we end up drafting I think we need a tall big bodied mid. Hotton looks to be yet another in the Bruhn, Clark, Aitkins mold. No mid under 187 cms

You don't rate Smith, Holmes and Knevitt?

 

[CatRiot]

Would we look at Shanahan?

Hitouts are in general a useless thing anyway

Yep hit outs as a stat are completely useless without the context of hitouts to advantage or disadvantage etc

I rate them all especially Holmes but they are not inside mids and I think we need a big bull inside mid.

Clayton Oliver, anywhere near his top, would be an ideal addition as an inside bull. Danger is becoming injury prone and is understandably on the decline. Bruhn improvement this year would not surprise.

Being Joel home

This whole process to me is becoming a bit of an eye sore and a negative impact on the culture of AFL.
The amount of teams that are now just delisting players and saying they will redraft them as rookies is ridiculous.
For me if you are delisted from a senior list it should be that that team cannot draft you as a rookie as clubs are treating list spots as a joke and as a way to reduce salary cap etc.
