Aren't Lemmey and Scully the same age?
And we're still persisting with trying Scully as a forward, while Carlton have already pulled the "maybe you should try being a defender" move with Lemmey.
Let the Klowns have Lukosius, we have enough flakey KPPs on our list.
Happy for the club to participate in a bidding war to inflate his trade value though.
And there is also Visentini, and Sweet has been good.I would go after Lukosius, he can play at the highest level.
We already have Scully, we don't need Lemmey.
Give Scully a rocket sure, but he showed a lot as a back up ruckman and could be an ideal fit in our forward line.
Lemmey is way more athletic than Scully.People talk about getting Lemmey but he's just a year older version of Scully. Same queries in his draft year about competitiveness and consistency.
Then throw in Lukosius if we are into him ... how many of those types do you want in key positions?
Cumming definitely coming here you would think. If it was Crows, it would have been announced in that same statement, not just wanting to go to SA. Big news if true. If we can land both Cumming and Perryman, our overall level of best 22 raises dramatically.
Only if we pay him $20k a game as he only plays 5 a year.
Bit silly to be arguing over a 10 month age gap. They're both pretty much the same age and were drafted the same year.Lemmey was born in January 2004, Scully in November 2004. Nearly a year gap.
Bit silly to be arguing over a 10 month age gap. They're both pretty much the same age and were drafted the same year.
I'd probably have Lemmey slightly ahead of Scully mostly based on ability to read the flight and compete in the air. Neither are certainties to make it though, so why not have both on the list next year and see who looks most likely by end 2025?
Of course we can fit both.Cumming would be a great pickup for the wing position. Happy to leave Burgoyne as a small defender for a bit after his game on the weekend. Not sure we can fit both cumming and perryman in though. Lukosious should be the priority.
He will want to go to WA or maybe Qld and he will find a club in either of those states.
Scully has averaged 2.8 marks per game this year, Lemmey averaged 4.4 over his last 12 games when shifted back to KPF.Reading the flight and competing in the air is literally lemmeys weakness and arguably scullys strength. Lemmey is super quick off the mark, or at least was as a junior but doesn’t know how to play football.
If Marshall and Dixon retire at the end of the year, Kyle Marshall is delisted and we don’t manage to net a first that will land a top tier KPF, and Clurey is off to Weat Coast. We have only have Scully, Georgiadies and Lord (Finlayson isn’t a Key Forward) as Key Forwards and Walsh as a Key Back, you would entertain the though of Lemmy as cover at either end of the ground.Scully has averaged 2.8 marks per game this year, Lemmey averaged 4.4 over his last 12 games when shifted back to KPF.
For sure, Scully has more scope to be that wrestling key forward and win 1 on 1 contested situations, but Lemmey's marking ability in general (i.e. leading patterns, ability to get separation, marking high/out in front) is better than Scully's.
I'm fine with it.Sam Edmund on SEN saying our offer for Perryman is 7 years.
Cumming definitely coming here you would think. If it was Crows, it would have been announced in that same statement, not just wanting to go to SA. Big news if true. If we can land both Cumming and Perryman, our overall level of best 22 raises dramatically.
Or he wants to start a bidding war between the SA clubs............................I assume 'South Australia' means 'Port Adelaide, but they're still in the finals race so I won't name them yet'.
