List Mgmt. What the team needs to look like in 2017

[Bring back Bas]

most teams have 3 talls

Agree, we need a 3rd tall defender that is able to play on the resting ruckman at a stretch. However I do not want Carlise as he is ridiculously overrated, but mostly because he is a drug cheat!

 

[Bring back Bas]

FB: Brown, Talia, Shaw
HB: Laird, Lever, Kelly
C: Henderson, B.Crouch, Smith
HF: Lynch, Walker, Sloane
FF: Betts, Jenkins, Douglas
FOL: Jacobs, Dangerfield, M.Crouch
INT: Cameron, Kerridge, Mackay, Draftee (outside mid/half back)/Knights/Atkins/VB/Jaensch

Hb. Laird Lever Smith
C. Milera MCrouch Knight
Hf. Lynch Walker Cameron
F. Betts Jenkins Menzel
R. Jacobs, Sloane, BCrouch
Int. Ellis yoleman, Wigg, Douglas, Hampton

There is some real x factor about this team.

I reckon CEY and Wigg the two least secure of that group (especially since Wigg isn't contract beyond 2016).

But I like that team, and interesting to see who's left out.

Contracted for 2017
David Mackay (10+ yrs)
Ricky Henderson
Jake Kelly
Reilly O'Brien
Andy Otten
Sam Shaw
Tom Doedee

Contracted until end 2016
Scott Thompson (10+ yrs)
Nathan van Berlo
Matthew Jaensch
Kyle Cheney
Jarryd Lyons
Harry Dear
Luke Lowden
Mitch McGovern
Mitchell Grigg

Team needs to look like this:

HF: Menzel, Walker, Lynch
F: Betts, Jenkins, Cameron
R: Jacobs, BCrouch, Sloane
I/C: Gore, O'Brien, Seedsman/Hampton, Douglas

This thread proves how hard it is to predict into the future.
Assume we go big for a mid come next trade period: Neale/Parker

C: Smith - Sloane - Milera
HF: Lynch - Walker - Menzel
FF: Betts - Jenkins - Cameron
R: Jacobs - B.Crouch - Parker/Neale
B: Douglas - M.Crouch - Hampton - Knight

Em from: Gore, Wigg, Doedee, Jaensch, Henderson, Atkins, O'Brien, Kelly, CEY, McGovern, Dear, Otten, Shaw

Gone: VB, Thompson, Grigg, Lyons, Mackay, Lowden

At least the guernsey will resemble it.

O'Brien for Wigg?

Makes me wonder why we've given 2 year contracts to Otten & Shaw.

Depth probably, but yeah, i would have delisted one of them.

 

[Danger in Texas]

R: Jacobs, BCrouch, Sloane
I/C: Gore, O'Brien, Seedsman/Hampton, Douglas

By the way, this is more 2018.

 

[Carmo]

Haha, very interesting to go back and look at the start of this thread with the benefit of hindsight!!

 

[Thetrader15]

We will have a lot of 'depth' playing in the sanfl for the next 2 years. Otten, Shaw, McKay, VB, Gore, Lyons, Lowden.

Surely lowden will be gone at the end of the year if not before

I reckon cheney will be in the gun aswell.

 

[Mckaye17]

B: Brown - Talia - Hartigan
HB: Laird - Lever - Smith
C: Knight - B.Crouch - Menzel
HF: Lynch - Walker - Cameron
F: Betts - Jenkins - McGovern
R: Jacobs - M.Crouch - Sloane
I: Milera - O'Brien - Doedee - Atkins/Grigg/Douglas

Just couple question marks whether Douglas will still be at that level which I don't doubt but it'll be an interesting one how it plays out. Wanna see both Grigg and Atkins in the team but unless of injuries that definitely wouldn't happen often. Then a third key defender is key, of course we've got Otten and Shaw who both will be on the list in 2017 but I feel 2016 we may need to draft a kid in case the Hartigan development isn't there as much as we'd hope. See what happens I guess...

Then wanna see Menzel move more into the guts as he gets older so maybe McGovern can come into the side at some point, need Milera and Doedee to become the next Bennell (on field) and Danger .

 

[Thetrader15]

I was 'too embarrassed' to put Cheney on the list.

 

[FR0GGY]

I'm hearing whispers, but I can't discount that they are coming from the man himself.

Why do you say that ? ......on the basis of an Archilles non Pre-season and interrupted season ? .....that's very harsh, with no evidentiary support

 

[WaynesWorld19]

Because they're very talented tall utilities that are hard to get in AFL

No more so that he doesn't like it in Adelaide, apparently. Nothing about him as a player, never seen him play.

Where has the "don't like Adelaide" talk come from ? ......rumor?

Seen it a couple of times on here, but it's probably more to do with playing in the 2's than Adelaide itself.

If it's on here you can dismiss it ......that said when your continuously injured in a new city, that does make it very hard to adopt the new club/city

Interesting dialogue on twitter between Lowden and ROB/Atkins .....hard to know if serious or banter?
