huh?

Lever is a resounding success - even if we trade him this season
Milera is well on the way to being a success
Doedee - Highly rated but was a project player (In a very weak draft I may add)
Gooch - well on the way to being a success
Out of those three which one is the least likely to leave the club?

Gooch I reckon is the least likely. I don't see him being a player that'll attract north of 700k offers.

Lever has, and Milera will.
I really hope you're right re Milera but I'm not seeing it, will need to massively improve his contested game before he gets into that pay scale.

I'm very confident he will as well, but equally I reckon he'll end up being worth a shit tonne of money which always leaves a lingering bit of doubt about it.
So easy to forget he's actually only 19 still - younger than when Charlie Cameron debuted. Obviously still playing with a 19 year old's body but he has the best field kick in the AFL and I know they absolutely love him.

I don't think his problem is either body size or age related, IMO his problem is above his shoulders in regard to the contested stuff.

Whoever thinks Milera will get huge offers has been in a field of magic mushrooms too long

Will be a great player but won't field offers this early

Let's move on

Dan Menzel? Puhlease. Just no

McGovern will be our best forward, easily, within 3 years

Zak Jones would be a star at west lakes
I think his one tackle per game would be an awesome addition to our forward line's defensive pressure.

Not based on anything he's shown so far
I disagree, Milera has shown a bit so far, and of course it's assuming he does put it all together (which isn't a given)

I really hope you're right re Milera but I'm not seeing it, will need to massively improve his contested game before he gets into that pay scale.
It'll come, I reckon it's purely a conditioning/preseasons thing more then anything mental seeing it's something he got less willing to do as the season went on.

I don't think his problem is either body size or age related, IMO his problem is above his shoulders in regard to the contested stuff.
I'm not willing to discount that it may be "unnatural" for him to be going for it, seeing he would have spent pretty much all of his career playing outside. Still even then conditioning will help with that.

Is Aaron Hall uncontracted?
I believe he is, and he's from the Apple Isle, and he's had issues with successive coaches because of an inconsistent work rate, great offensively, ordinary defensively seems to be the main knock.

Edit : 2018
