How many mid season picks do North have and should they get more ?
I think Greg Clark would be a good pickup for example but they can’t go past a KPP first and foremost so wouldn’t pick him up necessarily
A big watch this space probably exists around the Crows I feel.
If Adelaide finish say 10th and end up with pick 8, it probably falls in the concept of too late of a pick to keep with a bid for Tyler Welsh most likely coming before that pick occurs. Because of this Crows may see it as a...
Could go to Freo ;)
He probably sees with Ethan Read he will become 3rd choice ruck so probably best to find a place to be 2nd choice. Doggies wont be able to monetarily outbid well anyone so id rule them out and say its between Geelong and Richmond.
Id say Richmond will be the frontrunners...
100 percent correct on the list cloggers but really don’t think Barass or Kelly form is worth bragging about.
Barass was shocking before he feasted on Freo. Hough would be ahead of both in best and fairest for example as would Waterman, Ginbey and Duggan.
Both Dockers and Eagles have...
WAFL/SANFL/VFL should shut up shop if they cant make a profit
More worthy charitable causes in the world then these secondary competitions.
They can either figure it out themselves or die. Not up to AFL members to pay for them to exist
Nicks is the worst coach in the league. First aspect that needs work. KPP area definetly the strong point. I just think though they can continue on the current path without a rebuild. They have a ton of father/sons in the next few years so wont feel obliged to throw the baby out with the bath...
Adelaide ?
Can’t be for real. Will most likely nab a top 5 pick and Tyler Welsh on the cheap to add to a decent crop already
Crows current issues is the putrid output from the older players, something they know and trying to fix via free agency . The youth they have is very good
Not really reliant on Darling either. Darling only in cos Allen is injured as well.
Only 2 we truly get a ton out of is Yeo and McGovern. Cripps just a stock standard HFF but we have tons of them in reserves with it being our strong point at the club so Cripps replacements just waiting his time...
Which is the ideal way to do a rebuild. You buld oyour 19 year olf KPPs in the reserves, not in the AFL. Bazzo will take over when he is ready, not when he isnt just so we can say "oh look how young our KPPs are yay" while the guy gets smashed
We dont let 30 year olds just retire and sit on...
I never said North were smart or Eagles/North would not be taking a risk given his injuyr history etc
Im just saying they clearly will and thats why he will leave.
Both clubs can easily afford the risk when its all said and done so even if we Dr Nick it, neither clubs losing a hell of alot in...
Kangas fans just cant see past the midfield can they?
We have tons of players outside the midfied playing and doing good things.
The reason most put us as bottom 2 isnt cos our young players are putrid. its because our list depth is completely disgraceful. The nucelus of the best 22 is there...
This post is probably correct in terms of where Doggies see the situation but its also the reason he will leave. If club thinks he isnt ready then he will go to a club who thinks he is and will pay him accordingly
Macrae will net a 5th rounder at best. They are doing those trades to break even and get Ugle Hagam inside the cap, mot get ahead of it to match any offers Busslinger gets
He is in the VFL now and James O'Donnell just taken his spot ahead of him . He can either wait til Liam Jones retires and takes a good 200k-300k paycut to stay or he leaves to North, plays AFL instead of VFL and gets a pay rise.
Not exactly a tough decision
Im sure he is living the dream playing VFL football week in week out...
I think he 100% leaves its just where. Id put Doggies as 3rd in line behind us and North who would be a equal chance
Seems a ideal fit for WCE. Ideally i want us to sign a free agent every year for the next 5 seasons really as thats the amount of salary cap we have free.
One of Florent/Cummings or Caleb Daniel for a pick downgrade suits me
Its important we can find some free agents and young trade talents to top it off. This rebuild woill collapse without us finding those mature replacements for Yeo Kelly and McGovern. Im confident though that unlike others we can entice these type of players over.
I was surprised when Eagles/Waterman were struggling to come to terms Freo didnt swoop in and give him exactly what he wanted. Think they have a massive regret with that one
Went from in denial (trading for Koschitzke) to now accepting it id say.
I think Yze has the stomach for it and they made a good change this way. I expect they will do a better job with the rebuild then Hawks/North have atleast
Why would we want to use the worst team in AFL history as our comparison and desired state?
North having 2 30+ players is your core problem, not something to brag about. Norths next step is to get 3 or so 30+ players of their own in reality.
I think the rebuild is 2 drafts in and so far we...
As the season drags on I tjink Fremantle will be so desperate for a tall forward they will give up the ghost on this one. Expect Logan McDonald will be highest paid player in the league by the end of it
Rumors that Zane Duursma has been up to no good have been quashed upon the realisation absolutely no one knows what Zane Duursma looks like or even who he is
