Hooper De-listed? Lol im pretty sure he will be evalated onto the main list.
Happy to see the dogs going after Sherman & Djerrkura, Vrez to a lesser degree but we dont need another tall forward at this stage. Im not sure if Santaclaus would add any value as we're already stacked tall on the forward line.
Really?
Our forwardline seriously lacks pace and as Sherman has this he would be a ceratin starter on a HFF.
From our PF team we will lose Johnson, Eagleton & Hahn (may be retained, but isn't in our best 22) who all played forward roles and need to be replaced.
Jones in for Hahn, Higgins in for Johnson and Eagle was a midfielder more than a forward. Try Howard, Wallis or Libba for Eagle.....
HF: Murphy Jones Grant
FF: Hooper Hall Higgins
You could also include Gia, Picken (defensive forward perhaps), Roughead as resting Ruckman to stretch the defence....
Now, I'm not saying we don't need more options and we shouldn't get Sherman, but we do have some replacements for our departing forwards...
Sherman will play on a wing, sometimes heading back to the HB line for mine. We need pace through the middle and Sherman would provide that, with Murphy playing back & Wood playing 22 + finals to provide us with the run we miss with Harbrow moving on - assuming we don't pick up a Harbrow replacement of course, which sound possible according to some rumours.Jones in for Hahn, Higgins in for Johnson and Eagle was a midfielder more than a forward.

Agree with the first 2... Disagree with the last one. Eagleton played primarily as a HF over the last 6 weeks. We need someone with pace to replace him and the 3 listed options aren't the right types to play this role just yet.
Don't agree with Murphy or Hooper in this line-up. Hooper might break in at some point, but isn't ready yet and I think Murf is better suited in the back half.
We need to add some ready-made small/ mid sized forwards to our list and it sounds like we are trying to do so.
We do have some options for replacement but then will lack depth, in the end most clubs will use 30+ players in any one season. If Sherman provides this depth the we should get him, if he adds to our other deficiencies ie pace then we should get him

Howard, Libba & Wallis wont be ready for 22 games in 2011 IMO

Gia is slow (but talented), Picken plays as a defensive midfielder and Roughy would only play in the forwardline when Jones or Hall are resting.

Sydney were spewing when we drafted them in 2005. They were desperate for him. I know they rate him, but I don't know if we'd want to give him away after his finals performances.

Bevan wants out of Sydney. Any chance we could pick him up instead of Veszpremi?
Our club would would jump at that offer...
Bevan and Veszpremi for Everitt and you've got a deal.
Why would we want Bevan, list clogger.
I've seen him play some pretty decent games.
I've seen him play some stinkers 2, been in and out of Sydney side for last 2 or 3 years.
The same applies for Everitt.
