I like Dow, will end up a beauty IMHO
Powerful and dynamic is how I envision his future.

He has a huge heart and tires himself out trying to do too much, as he becomes a more experienced/smarter player the energy will be better spent, with more support around him. Get excited!

What else Lace?🍿
 
Didn’t rich and Wc draft there forwards ?
Yeah they did. If we can draft a better small forward than papely with pick 8 then we should do it.

Small forward is basically the only difference between us and brisbane. They have cameron, mccarthy, rayner and sometimes zorko while our best is cuningham who plays once every ice age.
 
Respectfully disagree. Cameron had shown better signs and had torn apart some games by then, including a final if my memory serves me.

Looked a better prospect then and is a better player now IMO.

Nah Papley the better prospect right now than Cameron in his last year at Adelaide...Papley far more consistent and less injuries. Tougher and brings leadership qualities.

Cameron has really elevated his game since joining Brisbane.

I'd be hoping in a David Teague led Carlton, guys like Papley and even Sam Gray could improve their games with us.
 
Man the language around trade time is funny. Apparently there's a "race" for Darcy Cameron, despite 90% of AFL fans having no idea who he is, what he looks like and why anyone would want him. Several teams are "sniffing around" "ball magnet" Tom Cutler... who has barely played a game at the level. Rumours abound about Allen Christensen potentially being on the move - presumably to a third club where he could also fail to make any impact at the level?

It's good. It's fun. Can you begin to imagine the excitement at the G round 1 next year if TOM CUTLER was there in Navy Blue?! Wowee. Get out of the way, Doc, I'm trying to see Tom Cutler! Stop hogging the ball, Walsh, get it over to Cutler! Nobody cares about your 4th goal of the half, Charlie, let's talk about Tom Cutler!

(All in fun :D)
 
Why don’t we use pick 8 and draft the next small forward the next Rozee Stephenson. Both top 10 picks and kicked goals from day 1.


Are there any highly rated small forwards?

We could just use our extra Cap space to extend and front load Cripps contract so we will have more money later for other signings

On that front, if we exit this trade period without having acquired a high price player or two I would look out for a lot of "contract extensions" which will really be renegotiations. Eg. Harry, stick around for 2 years longer and we'll give you an extra million right now. It'll all be shuffling money forwards to soak up the cap and again free up next year and beyond space to try our hand again.

Yup that’s the only smart option available, should we cone out of trade period empty handed.

Lol imagine thinking it's that easy

While we're at it why don't we just get the next Dangerfield, Franklin and Fyfe. Screw this trading business

Culter fits the played his one good game against Carlton criteria. Kicked some good goals and received his 1 and only Brownlow vote against us last year. Good size and moves well. Could do worse

Our offer to that GWS player who's name eludes me at the moment apparently was higher than theirs.

No doubt the Woofer's offer is higher to Martin, but still not giving up hope.
 
I must admit, whilst i'm an unabashed fan of what SOS and the list mgmt team have/are doing I'll be annoyed if we miss on Martin because of a lowball offer. If what we're led to believe his preference is Carlton then we should be just getting it done. When a young talent (that fits our needs) wants to come on board we shouldn't be too smug. He's known to be an extremely hard & committed trainer and with the polish of Andrew Russell i think Jack could be a real star.

Just get it done SOS.

Agree 100% Crippa, although I also trust that SOS has a 'grand plan' in place, where Martin would be one piece in the puzzle.

If we over commit on one, it may affect other deals along the way.....I may be completely wrong, but I assume that's why we would place limits on any offer.
