says we should get this player”.

 

[Brant]

small/medium rebounding defender

Sweet, a mix of both!

 

[Spursfan]

Sweet, a mix of both!

Was awesome in 2017, if he got back to that form he would be a great get.

 

[The Offerman]

Rebounding defenders are arguably the last thing we need to be honest, behind more inside mids of course. Unless the plan really is for Hardwick to go back forward.

 

[PenAndPaper]

Is he a rebounding HBF or a small/medium (defensive) defender?

He's a whole lot of rebounding & not much defending. Not sure he's what we need in all honesty, but could be handy on a wing.

 

[WWSD]

Puopolo is going to retire, Minchington is injury prone and Moore is not a small forward. GW is going to have to start the search for small forwards in this years draft and also the trade period. It’s one of the biggest deficiencies on the list right now.

 

[HAWKSBESTEVA]

Jeez give me this any day of the week. Been an amazing player. Still looking solid this year.

the good thing about drafting small forwards is if they turn out to be really good, you’ve got yourself an elite midfielder in a few years time.

 

[Books]

If we're going to pillage the Crows, let's talk to Chayce Jones.
Mid / Fwd. Currently struggling with 2nd year blues in a crap team with no culture.
Was a top 10 draft pick. Worth a look.

 

[mustang]

Only liked because I agree, not because I liked the thought.

Everyone is saying on Sen and other Media platforms we just need to get through this year. But I agree I can’t see next year not being the same as this year.

 

[Burtman]

Laird was an awesome one on one defender aswell, he would instantly be our best small defender. He’s not worth our first pick, but hes worth more than our second, so something else would need to be worked out

 

[Nugett]

Of course they'd want more. Adelaide's counter offer to us would be "you paid much more than a second rounder for Wingard who WAS also AA so pay up".

Sure they're looking to rebuild but it's not an everything must go clearance sale.

through recent history, crows seem to be decent to trade with, compared to port. The clubs that seem to be the hardest to deal with has been Port, Gold Coast and Scum. Adelaide seems about fait and realistic in what they ask for in return.

 

[Sturty]

Even though he has been terribly out of form this year, would love us to try and get Dan Rioli

 

[SuperSic]

I have said this before and I’ll say it again, I have never understood the Laird hype. He is the definition of a crab and with the amount of skillful and talented small/medium defenders we have I would be disgusted if we gave up anything more than a 4th round pick for him.

Overrated and a bad list fit. No thanks!

 

[Slysh]

While I think that is harsh I don’t disagree with the fit. Just doesn’t fit a need and the Crows aren’t shipping off one of few good players without being well compensated.

 

[Burtman]

Really doesn’t fit a need? We’ve had trouble with small forwards all year. As much as we hang s**t on Stratton, he’s done all the big jobs over the years, when he’s done we will literally have hardwick as our only small defender. I like hardwick as a player but I’ve seen a few small forwards get a hold of him over the years.

 

[Davo-27]

Jared Berry, best tough midfielder in the AFL, gets no media fanfare either.

 

[Burtman]

Not bad for one year of highlights

 

[almuz]

Not keen on a 26 (to be 27 next next season) Laird unless he’s an FA or a 4th round pick.

We desperately need to hit the draft and reinvigorate our list, trading for another senior player doesn’t help with that.

Well it depends on the cost, I agree with hitting the Draft. But it doesn’t have to just be one or the other which a lot of people are getting caught up in.

So I am totally okay with using Norths 2nd as trade bait if it gets in quality players however I want to take our first to the draft. Unless someone big is on offer.

 

[The Worpedo]

Zac Williams would be a great get. Can play on the ball and off half back. Would also allow impey to play up forward a bit more, which can also release wingard to play more in the midfield like last year.
Need to have a crack at papley, we are dying for more pressure in the forward line. If the hawks miss out on him then they need to target some young natural pressure forwards.
Cedric cox has great skills and isn't getting a game he would also be a cheap option to play off half back and add a bit of pace.

 

[TylerDurden]

Do we trade with Dodo for Mozzie??

Sam Frost plays a lot smaller than people have realised just yet, and has been outstanding covering for Stratton before the Carlton game. Also Laird isn't really a defending defender either, so it's not like he'd be doing that job.

Laird is a free agent next year. Which makes much more sense for both Adelaide and Laird to be honest. Bank first round compo in a better draft (purely because the under 18s will be playing.. Probably)

If lists are cut there's a good chance we pick up Cox as a DFA if we're interested. I think his skills are better suited as a small forward especially for our list. Reminds me of Impey and that was a great acquisition. He's just stuck behind really strong small forward and running defender stocks as Brisbane.

CJ and pepper both have potential to fill the spot. Both have the athletic tools and intent - but just need time and experience.
