McAsey is interesting, was a high pick and an AA defender at junior level in his draft year, but we need a KPF at the other end, not so much desperate for tall defenders. Balta, Gibcus and Miller ontop of the existing Grimes, Tarrant and Broad is a very good hand of KPFs now and in the future.
if it suits the game plan i think lambert and graham could be clones...both running machines and dynamite when they get involved in our chains and link up play, both not strong overhead or able to kick over 50 but deadly over 35-40m either passing or kicking for goal. tackle hard and will sacrifice a possession to make dusty or bolton get a clear passage. wont be walk up start anymore but if injury free, he's in our top 25 mix and we lose nothing when he plays. also lets us manage dion, cotch and grimes with less stress.
Well, we don't know what the cost will be yet to be fair.
It won't be one or the other though, I dont understand the need for the comparison.
Yeah, im not going to pretend to know what McAsey's ability is to play at either end of the ground.
Fair point. Hopefully we can do some slick negotiating especially if they are pushed by the cap!
In the very limited time Gibcus went forward he looked to have some potential there, but it was just a tiny glimpse. Will be interesting to track and would solve a massive hole if we could grow him into a forward because he's got a lot of attributes and he's so young. There's a 250 game player there.
I would be extremely surprised if that was the deal
There is a simple solution to thatThe worst part is you can’t put him on ignore because the thread makes no sense with everyone responding
I wouldn’t be in favour of that unless he demonstrated the tank to play wing, but I couldn’t understand why he wasn’t thrown into the middle on Neale in that fateful final. We put a couple of guys in there who just stood near him.
I mean, that is not remotely true in any universe and the quintessential 1+1=3.

We wanted to keep Ellis, but weren't going to pay him what Gold Coast were offering, hence Brandon taking the deal that set him up for life and cashed in on his value when it was at it's highest.
McAsey would probably come in to play KPD which would then allow us to move either Miller or Balta up the ground to play forward/second ruck or send Gibcus up the ground as a more mobile marking option, which would then allow Lynch to remain deeper.
“Not remotely true in any universe”.
which part would not be from this universe?
If Fogarty was involved in the offer, I'd order a limo and send it to Jack Graham's place, inside will have a first class, one way ticket to Adelaide. When he lands in Adelaide, id have a motorcade ready to escort him to the Adelaide football club. In the transport vehicle there will be a trained masseuse along with a smattering of fine foods so that Jack can have the utmost comfort on his travels.
Have liked the look of Gibcus, when he's gone down forward at times this year, won't hurt to see where that leads. Didn't he play forward in juniors?
I really like this idea!
Take off the ignore, respond by agreeing with everything he says, tell him he is a genius and should be the list manager as he is so insightful. He'll quickly get bored and stop.
