Although his kicking for goal was atrocious Levi's contested marking and contesting were A grade. The way he presents and splits packs is extremely beneficial for the team. Look back at how many times we bombed the ball long to Levi and he crashed the pack and brought the ball to ground. Not many in the league can do that. We would miss him immensely.

Be careful what you wish for..

No point taking marks when you can't kick. He also gives away too many frees. More importantly, he makes dumb decisions.

We are a few years away from a shot at a flag, if that band 3 pick can help us snare Kelly (along with other picks) then it's a no brainer.

As for being careful for what I wish for lol as if losing Levi is ever going to haunt me.
 
Early 20s pick for a player who is the best contested mark in the comp and is hitting his peak in a weak Draft? I don't think a player like Levi is easily replaced. He will help the development and protect a young player like Mackay immensely.
The club may want to blood Kerr and Mackay next year as our twin forwards. They may have suprised at the development of Kerr and hope to get Levi to have a bidding war with rival clubs to gain a better comp selection.

Well my idea isn't to use that pick in the draft but package it with other picks to get Kelly.

Casboult may not be our call in the end.
Well, it would be, but SOS will not over-pay.
That would surely be clear for all players at the CFC.

If someone throws 600K at Levi, he should go.
We take our band 2/3 compo and get on with things.
If the club values Casboult which we will find out soon enough about they will pay what is required to keep him . You might be surprised given the cap going up and our needs going forward coupled with paying the minimum 95% on the cap the past 2 years how much the purse strings will open up over the next couple of years . Theyve been prudent for a reason imo .

Fact is as of the latest round levi has kicked 18 goals 9 behinds thats a conversion rate many players would like to have . So at present the cant kick statement is off the mark and he deserves more respect for his achievement in that area this season .
However i do reserve this statement for future amendment ;)

Post referenced AT PRESENT , THIS SEASON , and RESERVE STATEMENT , so clearly you have no interest in acknowledging firstly what i was getting at . And a major improvement despite a couple of horific mistakes last weekend levi has made this season .
Grudge acknowledged well done .
 
Would a 1st and second round pick this year get us Kelly?
I wouldn't think so, I guess a lot depends on where that first pick is. If it is pick 2, then maybe an early second might get the job done but a think more likely a late first rounder.

I doubt we will get Kelly though

We don't have a 2nd rnd pick this year.
 
Considering we have the ability to promote another rookie at this stage of the season a few should be fighting it out in the vfl this weekend.

JGM
Sheehan
Gallucci
Korcheck
Lebois

Who will it be??

There's only one player close to AFL level there, right now; Sheehan.

I reckon he would give us an opportunity to match. I know he doesn't have to, but by all reports he is happy at the club.

Why move if the financial deal is similar?

He plays every week he is fit. Clearly in best 22 athe moment playing an important role.

Why wouldn't he repay the faith shown in persevering with him?

Sumner & Lamb don't go too bad.
Just haven't been impressed with him from day 1, but like others, he has a few weeks to show he's worthy of hanging onto.
That's what I'm saying. These rookie players have an opening on the list and the best of them gets a go. Bolts hasfree reign to switch the side up and bring in others to see if they're afl ready. Expect him to give one of them a chance.
 
I've been pondering this over the last day or two and i'm surprised nobody has started a thread on it on the main board(i may have missed it) but Bucks said he didn't think any club would match a RFA bid in the near future. I found this astounding.. In what world would Richmond not match a Dusty bid, Freo a Fyfe bid, GC a Lynch bid.. is it easier than we think to draw a free agent out with a decent contract or is Bucks just a moron?
OK, I will give a reason. At the money being "supposedly" talked about, anywhere up to $1.25-$1.6m/season (which I think is BS), you'd want Dusty be the face and voice of much of the clubs' marketing, pressers and general media. You need to be much more than just a footballer at that money. The board would not just expect him to do it, they'd demand he do it. Just ask Judd, Ablett, Dangerfield, Buddy and Fyfe. I just don't see Dusty being able to fulfil the types of responsibilities that would come with a contract of that size and nor would any sensible football club.
 
To those of you who wouldn't mind getting Sicily, you're kidding yourselves. Been dog shit already tonight. Dropped an uncontested mark, got caught holding the ball (which VERY luckily) didn't cost them a goal then next contest fails at picking up the ball at ground level Crows goal. No good arrogant man.
