Excellent premise for our recruitment people to work by - "what if".

What if he doesn't? Kicked a few against the Swans bench warmers in Albury.Again, so what? What if Brander ends up more than a bit better than any of ours?
If he does, we shrug and move on - he's shown very little to date and stylistically hardly qualifies as a must have player.Again, so what? What if Brander ends up more than a bit better than any of ours?
Because he was one of the best small forward options in the draft and we need a small forward.So what? I'd be really happy with Ricky Mott because the ruck is an area we need to address.

Out of internet who do you think we should have taken instead?
Brander would have been a really cheap insurance policy if Charlie (or any other KPP player) continues to have injury problems.Again, so what? What if Brander ends up more than a bit better than any of ours?
There's just so many list spaces a team can fill.Brander would have been a really cheap insurance policy if Charlie (or any other KPP player) continues to have injury problems.
The problem is we have 6 players on the list that prefer playing inside midfielders (Ed Curnow, Hewett, Setterfield, Cripps, Kennedy, Dow) and 7 who are half back flankers (Williams, Saad, Newman, Williamson, Docherty, Stocker, Boyd). Compare that 3 key position forwards (Harry, Charlie, Young) and 3 key position backs (Weitering, Oscar, Young) - Gov, March and Akuei are not KPPs - and I think the list is still alarmingly unbalanced. Hopefully it gets addressed at the end of the year when a few of these guys come out of contract.There's just so many list spaces a team can fill.

Has the size but not the physicality. Lead up 3rd tall or wing is his go.
He basically walked out on West Coast because Simpson continually played him on the wing. He has stated that he sees himself as a traditional centre half forward and wants to play there like he did as a junior. Whether or not he’s good enough is to do so is another thing.Has the size but not the physicality. Lead up 3rd tall or wing is his go.
Yes I know how he sees himself, but of his 22 games to date he's shown no desire for, or capability in the contest at all. The best stoppers like May would destroy him. 3rd tall is his go, so he might get a shot with the Giants in that role. He's no KPF.He basically walked out on West Coast because Simpson continually played him on the wing.

I would be more interested if poster could provide that information before the draft
Don’t agree not up to it, but certainly no pressure to jump. Hopefully all play in our twos and have more time to audition. With Covid interruptions there will be mid season bargains and with Covid protocols they may get an audition from our seconds.That’s a decisive bold move - I like it
These 3 guys were simply not up to it
Or it's because we will be keeping an extremely close eye on him as a stop gap possibility for the mid season draftI think this is why we have Jesse Glass-McCasker back at the club.
So we can blanket Schache in intra-clubs![]()
I told you all multiple times last yr we should of gave Tyson Stengle a spot on our list
yeah, it's the risk with moving players to the rookie list now. Just gotta hope that they're happy here and want to stay for the chance of some kind of success.A number of players OOC at end of year. I think some will be somewhat obvious delist/trade at the moment. But LOB has won me over last two weeks (not to say there still aren't some growth areas). And I've always been a fan of Kennedy, but last two weeks he seems to have gone next level with consistency.
My question, given LOB and Kennedy are FA for life, how will this affect possible negotiations (if they can remain where they're currently at)? If they produce what they have for rest of year, I can see other clubs making offers.
A concern, but not a huge issue for mine. We will have some list changes that will balance it out unless Bam Bam gets a grandfather offer we can’t afford. He loves the club, so will take a monster deal.A number of players OOC at end of year. I think some will be somewhat obvious delist/trade at the moment.
