Opinion Player list management and game plan 2019 part 2

[David Puddy]

Hall set to land at North for essentially nothing.

Nice Ports.

Hall is definitely not what we needed. Mentally fragile and average disposal, as well as being dropped multiple times by the worst club in the league.

There's some baggage there.

DO we think that we will consider trading a 2020 first round for another first round in this years draft?

I don’t think we would or should.

If we got another 2019 1st like hawks I would consider it for a top 5 pick.

Meh. He's about to turn 28 and noted one way player.

He will be gone before Hinkley!

Thats the feeling i got with us making sure we have extra late picks for points in 2019

With Polly and Hall the Roos are going to get a lot of goals scored on them this year.

Yep. And if we thought Polec defended badly, Hall would just ask us to hold his beer.

Why don't we need Williams? We have one key forward on our list under 27. Watts is inconsistent. Dixon has had 2 shit years out of 3. We need more talls.

You made me go and watch video of Williams. He looks alright, very athletic, takes players on and a decent size too.

Best of all though, he will be a cult figure. He looks like a giant Cameron Ling and this weakness* noted by Knightmare - Often drops simple uncontested marks - means he will attract massive attention. Bring him in!

*Before people lose their shit too much, his list of strengths is pretty impressive:
Impact per possession
Leap
Agility
Acceleration
Attacks the ball in flight for marks
Body control aerially
Leaps over opposing ruckmen at ruck contests
Gets first hands on it in the ruck almost every time
Production
Capability to play both as a ruckman and key forward
Leading patterns
Timing of leads

We can give up players for nothing though.

I think he has bust potential but upside as well.

What I liked was I watched him in a champs game or 2 and he was very aggressive in his attack on the ball.

He seemed to want the ball and when it was there was going for it.

Attacked the ball in the air. Very against him with pick 10 (mid for that pick!) but pick 15 if we finish with that pick and have brought in mids earlier why not.

Yet Hawthorn fans will post in the "Port draft tampering" thread on the main board without a hint of irony.

We did last year.

There's a reason formerly high draft picks go for nothing

Look at Toumpas, Trengove and Barry.

I was genuinely worried you were going to tell me, not that Williams

Hawks just got pick 7?

They just got a former pick 7 (Scrimshaw)

Lol yes but all those three had a lot more issues than a bit of homesickness and a lot more exposed form than 2 years on the GC.

Un****ingbelievable, its trades like this that make the competition a joke.

 

[philthy05]

dont let this distract you from the fact that Cripps is going to kidnap kids from gcs in 2 years. The Victorian media said so

 

[Hong-Kong Phooey]

I guess dew still has a soft spot for clarko

Oh misread

This is a bit like asking me if I should take out a third credit card so I can buy a new bike, while I have several good bikes hanging on the wall in the garage.

 

[Adz2332]

geeez looking at our depth or lack of it we really need 1 or 2 of Atley Garner Patmore or Drew to really step up this year!
