The contested stats speak for themselves. That's his last season at full fitness. He covers the ground well for 195cm and takes a good grab
Not denying that he would be an awesome pick up but not for Gaff a first and a second round pick.

My God the pair of them look like "The Science Department" at High School.

Dull , colourless and boring.........., pure coincidentally I am sure ........ just a little bit like their draft selections.

So just read that we have offered our 4th round pick but Port want our 3rd round pick, but are prepared to delist Ah Chee and force him to go to the draft. Kinda ridiculous that Port are prepared to get nothing for him, and a bit suss that Brendon is seemingly willing to be picked up by any club whatsoever.
With Willie Rioli ready to go next year, do we need Ah Chee? Havn't seen a lot of him. Is he worth a punt?

Would you prefer a recruiter with an Afro?

Probably gotta let him go .... to much at # 47 really no guarantee that AhChee will succeed at AFL level actually might just be a fringe player . Other players more attractive options who havent already had six years in the system .

As a contrast Nathan Wilson going for a second round pick at about # 25 compared to taking AhChee at # 47 ....i think we are getting screwed over .

Quinz I don't much care what sort of hair style they have......... as long as they nail most drafts .

If this pair nailed the draft I wouldn't even notice their hair.

Brandon Ah Chee is a big bodied inside mid / forward flanker

Willow Rioli is a small forward
 
On 5 AAA the Crows are trying to stitch up Lycett ...Its 5AAA so not sure about the validity.
Not sure whether that would happen, but they may also have several 1st rounders in the coming days with Cameron and lever on the way out.

Would be more advantageous for us to trade to the crows than port should Scott want to leave. Which I don't think he does.

Don Pyke chasing our players maybe , plus Lycett is from SA .

Went to the Paer board and looked at Ah Chee player thread.


Nothing to report, the last entry was August 2016

Seems like a nothing player that will add just that.

What do you people think?
Every time they gave him a game they put him forward... he is a midfielder you cant expect a goldfish to climb a tree

Does anyone read those things? I haven't read any of ours since I joined the site

We have a reasonable record of keeping players from over east that we draft. But we don't get a look in when an A grade player from the Eastern States is on the trade table. Carlton know that and would have a pretty high price for Cripps, but so what? Why waste the last 2-3 years of JK's career filling the list with B -C graders? Naitanui & Shuey are 28 next year too. If we wait for 2019-20 trade season when Cripps and Hogan are off contract and start bidding against Freo we'll most likely only get one of them, when we really need them both.

Do you have a source ? Not claiming it's not true, but would like to read the credibility of it.

Anyway not sure how I feel about it if true. On the one hand I think he could be value even at 47... On the other hand **** port.

I agree, Cripps would be perfect for us and allow us to snag a flag before the comps best FF retires. I'd pay overs in an instant to get him home. Unfortunately, Cripps is a future captain of Carlton and a player they're building a team around, so it looks nearly impossible.
