I said this (he or Selwood) early last year and got pretty slammed for it.Trade Gaff?

(I suspect you'll reply with some sort of sassy remark, which is fine ya know)
Offer JOM 4 mill over 6 years and see what happens.
still a bit dirty that the club let go of Ebert.
at first glance I thought you said JON
In all seriousness Jager or Harley would be my main targets.
Who hurt you?I said this (he or Selwood) early last year and got pretty slammed for it.
I think Gaff comes out at year's end.What are the respective contract situations for both Gaff and Bennell?
What would you offer for either?
Would Coniglio come into consideration?
Congilio really overated be lucky to find himself in gws top 22 come midway this year . IMO .Don't rate coniglio to be honest. He's just another Scooter, which isn't what we need IMO

Yeh late teens i reckon. Though we picked up Darling next so i don't think we missed out. Though i think Smith wouldn't be overrated if he had gone pick 4. He came from nowhere though, i think he played amateurs then picked up after very little vfl exposure
I really dont know. I highly doubt GC would trade those two. FA might be our only chance.
Coniglio at the moment hasnt impressed as much as the two above. They are both players with that X factor we need.
Who would you target?
I wonder if Colledge could become a player who can play at both ends. He's taller than 'medium' but if he has the agility to take smaller forwards and the height to play on taller ones, that could be handy.WC's lack of midfield strength and depth gets mentioned often, but WC also need a couple extra quality small/medium defenders, too. I believe this to be a need, not a want.
McGinnity and Brennan should be de-listed at season's end.
Ellis, Waters and Butler aren't reliable and can't be banked on due to being injury-prone. Butler's slower than a wet week too. Waters and Butler are of the class of 2003. They're getting rather long in the tooth as far as their football career goes.
Smith, Bennell, Carter and Wilson have plenty to prove. De-listings may also come from this group.
Sheppard may be used as a defender, but even he is unproven and needs to pull his finger out, no matter which position he plays.
Schofield can play on certain mediums, but WC may not want to play four talls down back if he's not used as a KPD. When Glass retires, Schofield takes his place as a third tall.
Hurn and Yeo are the only reliable, quality, small/medium defenders WC have, but Yeo may not remain a defender in the future.
Turning Rosa into predominantly a HBF is a viable temporary option. This is his 10th year on the list though, so a better quality and more longer term option is needed for the future.

more quality mids? i thought we just got some?...i know what you mean, but i think we've got enough variables now going through the centre, and talent that will evolve hopefully sooner than later..i mean who do we call mids already-selwood, priddis, masten, wellingham, cox, NN, shuey, gaff, rosa, sheed, yeo, ellis, hurn, hutchings, darling, lecras, darling, sheppard, cripps, etc.
curious to see how it looks by round 4, then again later in the season in regards to who has stepped up..expect masten, shuey and wellingham to do so, probably gaff too, and the newbies ellis, yeo, sheed should get their groove on..arguably we have enough bigger bodies. maybe not as formidable as freo.
as said before i'm thinking the sum of the new/and overall midfield parts makes up for the lack of any goldplated gun class.? and what may yet turn into class..an example of that theory is our cricket team-not a team of stars, but a star team..or the Moneyball theory...anyway we'll certainly know by years end, and imagine adding a class-gun to the line up! cant be bad.
That's not quite what 'the moneyball theory' is.an example of that theory is our cricket team-not a team of stars, but a star team..or the Moneyball theory
it kind of is..not the cricket analogy, but the sum of all parts, along with stats..That's not quite what 'the moneyball theory' is.
