List Mgmt. Possible trades for 2016

[WaynesWorld19]

Let's review in 5 years time.

Hope you are correct on this one.

What? ......that iam not delusional?

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Hurley won AA at U18 championships as a Full Back ......he's best as a straight ahead type player, not great agility and turning circle as a forward .....but his aggression and attack on the ball has allowed him to have some success as a forward

He's not a bloody flanker though!

 

[WaynesWorld19]

no way is he a flanker .....nimble half forwards would run rings around him

We going to pay big money to Hurley to be a flanker??? .....surely not

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

If that makes you feel better.

Don't mind left field stuff, even if sometimes on another planet...

Have you been reading the posts on this thread.

We actually agree on this one!

It's called lateral thinking

The thing is, Hurley is a very good kick & rebounder of the ball from defensive 50.
I'd say he'd be our most reliable kick in the backline if he comes in, IMO he's just as good as Laird with his disposal.

Does that make us both delusional?

As they say, there is often not much between brilliance & crazy... Which both beat boring sheep.

Correct .....but the main aspect of Hurleys game i like is his aggression and attack on the ball ......just imagine Lever and Hurley in the same backline

Should go after hurley and mitchell or take a punt on o'meara. Mitchell would only go to a fellow top 4 club which we meet. Along with a fit hampton , knight, menzel we would be premiership favourites for 2017.

We are one of the premiership favourites now.

But sometimes you make sense. Drafting/trading isn't about who you get but who the opposition doesn't get. Its GWS philosophy. They can then trade off those number 1s not playing to lower clubs , gaining two things , a high draft again and a side who wont hurt them.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Lonergan
Mackie
Enright
Taylor

All tall backmen, replace Lonergan with Scarlett and yeah.. They go with 4 talls.

Btw when researching the heights.. I found Corey Enright is only 187cm? Surely not, he looks MUCH taller than that! Maybe he's got long arms or something.

You answered your own question.

Enright isn't a tall defender.

 

[Tex200]

Yes they have as they are smaller in defence with the retirement of lake.

What the hell has their defence got to do with it?

They go with a 3 tall forward and rotate 2 rucks, so 4 x >190cm players at any one time.

That structure won them a flag last year and they have the same structure this year.

And what is a flanker anyway - are we talking 2016 football or 1963 football?

Talia at fb.

Lever & Hurley across hb cleaning up everything & everyone!

Would make us the best young defence to go along with best forward line.

We are talking defences not forward lines - so it why are you trying to change the goal posts!

Name me a successful defence with 4 key talls...

But Hurley also gives us flexibility to swing him forward as well ......either tactically or to cover injuries

Agree - could switch up with the gov.

 

[Bicks]

But Mitchell has been a gun ever since.

I think m crouch will be a consistent player for us, but doubt he will end up as good as Mitchell.

Hope I'm wrong.

I think the one that's tending to be delusional on this is you, you have absolutely zero to back up any of that other than your opinion.
The bolded part is the post of a 'desperate' man....

Your missing or deliberately ignoring my response - I'm naming the forward structure who won the flag last year and is top this year.

Why do you think a team with 4 tall forwards has so much success?

When m crouch wins 3 all Australians, 4 best & fairests, including in premiership years, get back to me...

I think our old mate Kane Mc is struggling on both his arguments in this thread....

Only if you get back to me when Tom Mitchell does the same!!

We are discussing 4 tall defender not forwards being to tall so you are changing the topic being discussed because you don't have the answer you want!

Lol - your hilarious

You can't answer so you're running around in circles - are you in politics

So how many all Australians & best & fairests will m crouch win...

Good luck!
