Is anyone else concerned about fly’s philosophy of players not picks. I heard him say this and was concerned about us giving up potential stars for second hand players. We don’t get players like Danger and Cameron coming to us and clubs screw us anyway.
I honestly hate the thought of trading out 1st picks for people like Shultz.

We don't have high picks available. So trading in players makes more sense.
 
All the boxes are starting to be ticked for Perryman to join us, just need the offical announcement early next week. Nice to finally see some progress being made after being linked with half of the AFL during the past month.
Very True

We been linked with quite a Few that went no where
 
About a month ago I floated the idea of targeting Charlie Ballard for our Key Defensive needs. Now I see he’s signed a 4 year extension. 😡

Tomlinson does the job. I've seen worse.
Hardly seen him since early days at GWS which I can’t really remember. I felt Bruzzy looked a bit banged up last year and would like some depth with some of Maynard’s traits, physicality, marking ability etc. We seem pretty well stocked for small defenders and Ryan seems more like a Markov type. Wouldn’t mind another solid body down back but not sure if Tomlinson has the pace or ability to play slightly smaller like Bruzzy can.
 
Reckon we are in for a busy FA/Trade period.

Check tomlinson stats round 24 against us.

Quite serviceable, thanks for posting. Think I’ll look at some footage and see who he’s matched up on recently. Was keen when he left GWS from memory but hesitant for some reason at present.
Edit: don’t think he is a key back which is what we’ve asked Frampton to do.

Understandable but I just think he's an upgrade with what we have waiting in the wings
 
If we do keep Richard’s I can see and hope we rotate Beau McCreery more throughout the midfield. His tackle presence would be similar to Rowbottom whilst having more speed burst at stoppages. Also would like Bobby Hill to rotate in the midfield a bit like Kysaiah Pickett does for the Dees.
This giving us a totally different look at centre bounce and stoppages if you include extra time for Allen.

We have had a fair amount of first round picks who have not don't much at all. I'm not a huge fan of future first but have no problem with Shultz. Unless he gets injured he's pretty much a lock for 100+ games at a good AFL standard. I think he's philosophy is not about that though. It's about whether you want a 2nd or 3rd round pick or a Bobby Hill or a Lipinski or a Darcy Cameron, Tom Mitchell etc. It's more and more common for teams to poach young players who played a year or two.

I see this posted a lot but think he would need to do serious work on his ball handling in close. He can fumble a fair amount however using his pace to run away is elite.
