Menzel can play, still not fully sold on Rowan for some reason.

cos he's really not that good. Panics with the footy and butchers it at times as well.
Also asking forwards to play taller than they are seems to have been our lot for ages too. Edmond was an excellent play - he was just never allowed to play the role he would have excelled in.

Ah "Jock" Edmond.....a true blast from the past. I remember in 1984 when Malthouse dropped him from the team despite being the skipper.....that was the turning point for that team I reckon, for the first time in a while the team was picked on form and no longer on reputation and the skipper was not spared.
Jim was good player though and he came back stronger after being dropped.

If you mean Howard - he wasn't even on them.
Richmond wanted him at 24 and Adelaide wanted him at 31

Richmond didn't have 24.
We drafted Tutt at 31.
No other club had him anywhere above the third round.
I was doing the pick numbers from memory, but we were convinced the Crows would take him with a pick or two before us, whatever number it was and we found out after the draft that Richmond planned to use the pick they spent on Ben Griffiths

We are no chance to get WHE i work with his cousin who caught up with him during his break he would only come back to victoria if he could get to Geelong likes having a bit of distance from his mum and dad .
If he cant get to Geelong he's happy to stay at the GWS.

Thats interesting. Is it Geelong simply because we are 75 k's from Melb? Basically happy in GWS then one suspects he will stay there , but if he makes noises thru his management that he want to move I dare say the Cats would be interested next year.
I'm pretty sure his dad passed away a few years back. Step dad maybe?
IF Geelong aren't interested, it could be Dangerfield related. As much as I would love WHE at the dogs, at least he wouldn't be at GWS if he went to the cats.
Yes the recruitment by the new clubs can be irritating , and certainly not equally spread. The Dogs have paid a cost for sure.
Geelong not interested...highly doubt that. Yes we will be looking at FA's , as most know but that should not limit our recruitment of others. Next years draft is heavy with mids , so I guess they would have o balnce what they would give up for him... but his talent would make him worth an R1 for sure.

Yeah he just wants the distance even if only 75KM away but my work mate said he is also happy to stay at GWS but if he want to come to Vic it would only be the Cats.
I'm always asking how he's liking it at GWS and put in a good word for the Doggies .

Not sure if it's his step dad or not didn't get that far into his family history he just relayed he likes being a little distance from his family for a bit of independence and the Cats are his only option if he comes back to Victoria.
Still have an unbalanced list between genuine key position players (i think Cordy is a 2nd or 3rd tall not key posi) vs mids, at least Talia should get a good chance next year.
Good to see we seem to have tried to fix the outside run and not recruited any more slow inside midfielders though
F/A for Rance 
think it is pretty unlikely to happen
Essendon would want more then just our first round pick to
unless it was maybe pick 1 and there was a player they really wanted
eh, why not both?

I prefer drafting but our KPP drafting hasn't been good, so happy to trade for them.

Given Cotchin has signed a long term deal recently (announced today) I would suspect that they'll be looking to secure Rance ASAP.
