How hard though?I’m keen on Cumming
Scully is highly rated internally so I expect he'll stay as guys his size need extra time to be ready for AFL. McCallum and Kyle Marshall have been unlucky with injuries but I'm not sure they have shown enough to keep a spot.Jackson is contracted for next year.
Marshall, McCallum and Scully are all gone imo.
I would rather they spend a future first on Luko than us spending that. If they were willing to trade for 2nd rounder then yeah we should get him
I have no inside information but I think Scully is rated far higher this board than he is internally. If he was rated highly internally he would have been signed by nowScully is highly rated internally so I expect he'll stay as guys his size need extra time to be ready for AFL.

Howhardbig though?
I based my comment regarding Scully on a discussion that Timmy G had on 5aa with one of our coaches and Tredders a couple of weeks ago (possibly Jason Williams) and an earlier discussion regarding Scully and other talls with Hinkley. Tredders and Ginever are really bullish on him and I'd assume they have some inside knowledge.I have no inside information but I think Scully is rated far higher this board than he is internally.

We probably need to make at least 5 list changes this year. There's every chance we need to make more depending on trade/free agency.
We have 8 out of contract players. 3 of those players are currently in the team and 1 other was playing two weeks ago.
The reality is that we need to make list changes and I would suggest that the remaining 4 players are going to find it hard to stay on the list.
if Ken’s still here no way!McEntee can be delisted with a year to go, just payout his contract. Evans and Narkle are UFA, and if they get starting positions elsewhere we may not be able to keep them.
Scully is not contracted but I think we should keep him cause I rate him higher than Lord. We also lack KPF depth as is so delisting Scully would be crazy. Jackson is contracted so would be delisted.
Kyle Marshall, McCallum, Clurey, Williams, McEntee, Dixon, McKenzie, Soldo, Lord, Narkle, Evans are all either delisting or trading possibilities. Most will be delisted. Boak is the questionable one, if we win it all he'll retire.
Luko is far from a 'proven player'.I would rather the crows go to the draft, where their recruiter has a record of botching more picks than he lands, then they trade that pick for a proven player.

All of that and he's on the outer with Dimma.I imagine Luko could get done for a second rounder given his salary. I don’t think either SA club would have to give up much
Luko is far from a 'proven player'.
My thoughts on the whole sitch:
- Would absolutely love Lukosius. Not sure about the negativity surrounding him, I feel he's been let down by Gold Coast and has shown how good he can be. His running style is laconic but I don't see him as soft at all, can really launch at aerial balls and has the best field kick in the comp. Would be an amazing link up forward for us.
- We've apparently already gone in on Joe Richards so I'll keep an open mind but doesn't seem to change our team much at all.
- Love the idea of getting Perryman. Loved him since his draft year and think he'll be great for us especially if Houston does end up leaving.
- I think Cumming is an exceptionally talented yet injury prone player. But I don't think he's the right fit for our team. He sorta reminds me of a less aerially competitive but better kick Miles Bergman.
- Garcia? Um, okay. I don't like the idea of trading so many players in. Just feels cloggy and that we don't believe in the young recent draftees.
- We have most likely at the very least barring trades out, a 2nd rounder, Benny Barrett, Louis Montgomery and Rome Burgoyne coming in. We gotta chop chop chop til we're top top top with the trades and free agency moves we're apparently already linked to.
- We can't keep ignoring the draft. No first rounders since 2021. I like next year's draft's top end better than this year's, but geez - we gotta make sure we don't screw ourselves down the line just because we have our young midfield set.
I think we'll have differing opinions on this one. I personally think Luko has proven nothing other than the fact that he's a good kick and he's lazy
Best case for Lukosius he becomes a Gunston-like type but in our system he just doesn’t fit. Unless there is a clear change in approach to how we move the ball forward (ie not bombing it to contest) I don’t see him providing anything more than Marshall has.
I imagine Luko could get done for a second rounder given his salary. I don’t think either SA club would have to give up much
From watching him pre being drafted I definitely didn't see him as lazy. I thought aerobically he was excellent, he worked hard up and down the ground. His profile also suggests this https://central.rookieme.com/afl/player/jack-lukosius/I think we'll have differing opinions on this one. I personally think Luko has proven nothing other than the fact that he's a good kick and he's lazy
This means basically the club wants to trade him for currency. It's our modus operandi with trying to shake players out.Kane still believe’s Houston might be available. On SEN this morning he said Essendon should have a crack at getting Houston since he wants to play in Melbourne next year.

The problem with Luko has never been do you want him. It's at what cost. Get him as a relatively inexpensive FA and I'm all for it. Get him in a trade for a 3rd rounder at a low salary and I'm all for it. Get him for a 1st rounder including a big salary hit and it's a HUGE no.
