We need a mid with speed and acceleration who can kick goals.
Keep Mat, Brad and Rory but only 2 in the CBA ever at once.
Trade:
Keath
Knight
Greenwood
Jacobs
Kelly
Hartigan
Delist
CEY
MacKay
Otten
Douglas
The question is can we make 10 changes in 1 year?
1 - Butts elevated
3 - current picks before 100
1 - 2020/1 pick
Can we trade in 5 players? I think not, so maybe Kelly and Hartigan stay
Not the way I was seeing it. He's holds his own at a clearance situation, but does nothing beyond that. Being a mid at AFL level involves being part of an offensuve and defensive structure. He has as much impact as Sauce around the ground once the clearance is done withHe was our 2nd best mid when the team was playing well.

Yep... definitely... our woes are 90% coaching based.. they’ve turned a high scoring, fast, exciting to watch team they were handed by Walsh in 2015 into a slow, hesitant, lacking confidence bunch of duds.I actually think there is talent on this list. They are just bereft of confidence playing a ridiculously stupid structure.

I’d say trading one out would be ok.. maybe Brad.. but to who?.. where’s he going to chose to go that gives us a good return?I actually think we might be better off trading Matt and Brad. I feel their presence and dominance of possession takes away from the players around them and neither are capable of playing other positions. In today's football, I'm not certain they fit well into modern day structures and game plans. They're natural ball hunters.
Unlike other on our list, these 2 have premium value. Take those 2 out and I think Sloane and Gibbs both suddenly improve, Greenwood too IMO and could probably carry our midfield whilst we inject Milera, Jones, McHenry plus others into the midfield. Developing a midfield with pace and ability to spread and defend. Probably need new coaches too...
The big worry I have is that the Crouches are effectively our midfield for the next 7 years and yet whilst both have been fit and supposedly firing all year, our side has been woeful, largely led by failures through the middle of the ground. Whilst statistically they win big numbers and go in hard every week, does the team benefit from their play like it should?

We trade him this year and we want 2 firsts.. the first this year being in the top 10. Maybe Saints?..
Otherwise it’s best we hold onto him and if decides he wants to go next year we’ll likely be bottom 4 and the compo pick will be juicier!
You don't rrade out your best young mids! To what, draft some more young mids?I’d say trading one out would be ok.. maybe Brad.. but to who?.. where’s he going to chose to go that gives us a good return?

He was our 2nd best mid when the team was playing well.
So Pyke said in his PC that Sam Jacobs would like to stay next year and we'd like to have him around
ROB has improved as wellRealistically who has improved this year???
BCROUCH has for obvious reasons and Kelly.
Every one else has gone backwards at a big rate of knots.
We should only keep the Crouches, Milera, Smith, Fog and Talia. Not including any from the last 2 drafts as they are unknown.
All others need to be looked at,
We need to cut deep and rebuild, any player with decent value over 25 needs to go.
Keath, JJ and Greenwood will depend on what’s on offer, if it’s not a second rounder, we should keep. Atkins can leave for a bag of chips and he can take Gibbs with him. Those 2 are killing the team.
Douglas, Mackay, Otten need to be retired. I’d keepSauce for 1 more year as backup.
Get rid of all soft players that don’t go in when it’s there turn, team oriented players who give a s**t about their team mates only.

Greenwood, I'm comfortable keeping .....need big midfielders, but agree on your Crouch AssessmentGet rid of one, not both.
Greenwood isn't improving our midfield, and Gibbs has little interest in being an AFL footballer anymore. Brad will be better next year than this, I'm not sure Matt can get much better.
I’d be happy to keep both, but they don’t need to be in the middle at the same time. They rotate them and compliment them with the mids we need.Get rid of one, not both.

I’ve been saying for awhile now that everyone is tradeable. Everyone.
Bottom out for four years. Trade anyone over 25 for whatever is offered or delist. No one in that age bracket will be in our next premiership side so keeping them is pointless.
Anyone under 25 trade if the deal is overs. Fog the closest to untradeable but if someone wanted to offer a top 5 pick plus another in the 5-10 range send him off.
I’m glad your not list manager.
