Analysis 2017 List Management Discussion - Part 3

[The Bighouse]

Adelaide- Walker 195, Jenkins 200, Lynch 191 and McGoven 191
Carlton- Kerr 194, McKay 200, Curnow 194 and Silvagni 191 we just need the defensive forwards like Betts and Milera (Cameron)

And guess what, same forward line coach, see how he goes about it at CFC but we have the cattle to replicate (talls anyway)

Think it was 2km

Yeah that would make more sense. 7:37 for 3km is sub 4-minute mile shit.

 

[TooBlue14]

Cam Rayner tested at Ethiad stadium this weekend, completing the 3km time trial in 7.57 slower than expected.

Tanking or taking it easy after an injury?

Fogarty completed the same trial in 7.33.

2km otherwise under 8m is Olympic quick.

Adelaide played better with Jenkins out during the year and got exposed badly in the GF.

That is a stupid fast time.

9min 3k is super high level

Wise word right there

Listen people’s

I'm rating Blaine on his finish to the season. Only as good as your last game?

Boekhurst is a gun, if we dont rookie him I'm started a "don't trade Fev type protest".

 

[Gingerbread man]

Am I understanding this correctly that we can sign Penrith as a category B rookie if he is not drafted?

 

[LanceRomance]

Too much hoping for Kerr and a few others, that we don't even have yet. (BSilvagni and possibly TLynch.....although we may drop off our interest there)
They may well make it, but we know that all won't and even though we know that forward-lines, as well as back-lines can be fluid by make-up, there should be a starting, staple, six.

Anything can happen and probably will, but I can see our back-line not losing much with Weitering not being there.
Long way to go, but a, ........Byrne Jones Plowman
..................................Docherty Marchbank Williamson/Mullett/Macreadie/???????..............could see us through for years to come.

We can only wait and see, but I don't think we'll have anything set in stone for a year or two yet.

There is something about Kerr that makes me think he will make it. Not sure how, maybe it won't be with the blues.. But he has something.

I can see Bolton taking teague aside after we kick 100 points

"this isn't about kicking goals, it's about the green shoots, consistency, emotional nourishment"

Weiters has two weaknesses: lack of aggression and lack of speed.

These can be exposed at both ends of the ground. However, I see his best role as an intercept marking defender with no immediate man to run with. TMac did a number on him during the Melbourne game. Could not go with him 1 v 1. On the flip side, he doesn't have the speed to lead a defender to the ball up forward.

The kid isn't perfect, I've been very hard on him this year but I feel like he will make it as a player and a very good one.

I disagree. Weiters wasn’t right most of last year that impacted his speed and mobility.

He isn’t the quickest guy going around I agree, but he isn’t a turtle either. His biggest asset is his endurance to run his opponent into the ground.

A full pre-season learning to work with his changing body shape will make a huge difference.

He has a chance as much as anyone else has and it's form first that brings his name to the selection table, but then there's also opportunity.
I just wonder how many talls we will be able to carry at any one time, next year.

We could well have one of the tallest VFL sides going around, yet be short of mids, as was largely the case this year.
Kerr could be playing 8/10 games and not get the chance if McKay, JSilvagni, CCurnow and then Casboult are performing and developing, yet a mid could be pushing out 6/10 games and get a senior call-up.

I might be wrong but I think he is similar to an academy player.

 

[Keyza]

The AFL website updated the draft order on Thursday and they are still saying we have 6 picks. 3. 10. 30. 72, 95 and 96.
I assume we may pick up a DFA with one of the later picks.

 

[teagueyubeauty]

Why wouldn’t we pick up a DFA now? Why wait to the draft if that’s what we are going to do, makes no sense otherwise

See who we are able to get in the draft before committing to a DFA who we can then select based on needs depending on who we drafted.

Imho Kerr has shown some good stuff before injury playing in the twos .me likey a lot.

That maybe the case but doesn't mean we will use them all.
We may pick up a player in the PSD and the rest most likely will be rookie picks.

In last year's draft, only 77 picks were used in total.

Its pick 95 and 96, what would we be expecting at that point that we wouldn’t get in the rookie draft?

 

[AreYouJason]

There wont be 90 kids taken...with academy and f/s you're still a chance players in your top 50 are available. Doesnt hurt to have a look then pass

If we have salary cap room, i have never really understood why we would take someone on a rookie and not in the ND.

1 year contract as a rookie vs minimum 2 year contract via the ND.

 

[Coona Blues]

Mockery made when rookies JGM and LeBois have 3 and 2 year contracts though.

Why is it a mockery?

The standard is one year but clubs have the flexibility to offer longer if they want to.

 

[Blue and Silver]

Clubs will have a set amount of picks in mind but keep an eye put for a slider they like. It's only reasonable
