Brayshaw is a sure thing. Like Suban was a life member and 150game player.

Stand up and applaud. Guy gave his all(i digress but my guilty pleasure on bigfooty is former players. 2013 was a good year)

Would we give aaron mullet a lifeline as dfa. Massive kick and pretty quick off the half back.

Is Taranto not eligible I liked the look of him

I remember we specifically asked for a pick inside the top 4 from GC for Weller

Makes me think Lloyd & co already have their picks in mind

Makes sense.

Perhaps we were set on Naughton at 5 and then demanded that pick inside ours to ensure a quality mid to replace Weller?

So reading between the lines... they want to give Gold Coast a run for their money with pick #1 next year. The battle for the spoon could be more fierce than the premiership next year.
With the amount of talent GC have they really shouldn't be finishing bottom. I know they have lost almost their entire midfield but still.
 
Look like everybody as DFA are pretty spud , don't mind jack trengove but he is a bit slow .

I’m not as keen on DFAs as most. There’s no Barlow or Henderson types that have been cut but would be best 22 at a few clubs this year. There might be a Hamling type who just needs more of a chance but that’s about it and personally I can’t see it looking at available players right now.

The reason I’d be leaning towards Ramsay if I had to pick one is that he was considered AFL material not long ago but injuries ruined him.

Most of the guys available would just sit on the list giving Peel 1-2 years service and then getting cut for little to no gain for freo. I would draft a mixture of mature agers and kids from pick 42 onwards. If we can get 2-3 B Graders from those 5-6 players it’s a decent result if we nail picks 2&5.

My strategy for DFA will be let them wait until Rookie draft.
