We should get Cooney if that cheap. Solid this year but scintillating the year before. Always risk, but cooney is a fantastic, skillful, damaging, goal kicking player when firing.
It will be easier for guys like Cooney and Higgins with a deep midfield, and how would you stop a midfield with boomer, Cunnington, Swallow, Ziebell, Dal Santo, Cooney, Higgins, Goldstein kicking to a forward line with petrie, waite, brown, black and Thomas. That is a lot of proven quality even if there is some inconsistency in there. Coaches job to fix that.
Someone will cut you up every week if we can get them all fit.
To think the only price we pay from a list perspective is cutting guys like Anthony, Wilikins, Nahas - it is a ridiculous opportunity and so what if they break down. Levi could be considered a cost, but doubt they are related - he wants more money than we want to pay regardless of who we are getting in. The fact we are now considering Cooney shows that.
Get it done.
