Garcia could potentially leave.
He's another that would be good to sign because he has some good characteristics and is the right age bracket. West is more of a forward now with a possible few stints in the midfield.
Harmes turns 29 in a few days. He's at the top bracket in regards age in the midfield.
Freijah has potential to perhaps move to the wing in time and I'm assuming we will pick up a young midfielder or 2 in the draft.
We are lacking in the middle bracket though.
If I need to recite our current list then you obviously have nfi
West Freijah Sanders Richards there is 4 under 26 now throw in Garcia 5
Magically we can again also draft more to rejuvenate
Bont isn't about to suddenly disappear

How often are clubs trading in players in the middle part of their career to purely be midfield depth?

Naughton, Darcy, JUH are givens not sure who else you are referring to
Watch a VFL game Croft is 2 years off other than that who plays KPF down there?
Guys like Robertson, F.Macrae even Garcia are the types if we need to add depth to target but again midfield depth isn't an issue for us midfield balance was but we are addressing that removing Macrae throwing in Richards
Do you really think we'd be chasing XOH and Peatling to play at Footscray?
They're needed because our older midfielders could drop off a cliff at any point next year. I doubt Libba plays every game he will be rested at times, and the same for Treloar.
Macrae and Daniel could be gone. Thats a fair bit of experience which needs to be stocked up and not just with 18 year olds
Oliver definitely leaving Melbourne because Geelongs midfield (Stewart and Stanley) are clearly better than duds like Petracca and Gawn
They'd be recruited as forwards both would be behind Bont, Treloar, Richards, Libba at a minimum then throw in Sanders for XOH

You are the one that said "depth", not me.
Likely he does or has and then they announce it at the B&F?
Sent from my iPhone using BigFooty.com
Outside of our "big 4" CBAs for the year
Sanders 28%
Garcia 17%
Gaggs 15%
Harmes 10%
We aren't recruiting these guys as anything more then part time mids
He’s still a tall forward on the list though yes? Lobb tall forward tick, bont resting tall forward tick, english resting tall forward tick, even at a stretch you have jod buku and gardner who have been thrown forward

You're the one that mentioned Footscray, not me.Depth doesnt mean they're playing at Footscray
I am well aware of what depth means. It means they're either playing out of position, or they're playing in the 2s, until an opportunity arises. Do you actually expect players to jump at that opportunity should it be presented?

Jack Macrae is the KPF St Kilda are after, not Jamarra confirmed.
pick 7 and 8 on the table throw in 194cm Poulter if we have too he is tall and can play forward
Yep exactly what I said

Height yes forward craft very very limited in that group you mention and much resting down there.
This team needs to build around Naughton, JUH and Darcy as forwards. Those 3 are a clear advantage we have whether we know how to use it is the question.
Peatling will be lucky to play middle will be a small rotation like Garcia who had 17% CBAs
