I'd seriously consider Hogan as a direct replacement for Casboult.

Not the best forward, but pushes up the ground and is very good by foot. If he's prepared to play a little bit of second ruck, potentially drop down back at times to help stem an opposition run on...yeah, I think it could work.
Id take hogan over mclovin, play as the third tall with harry and Charlie
Very dynamic, he had issues i know but those 3 at there best, very hard to stop

Saad meters gained avg 404m
Disposal efficiency 80%.

How do those stats equate to not hitting targets
For a Bloke that runs as far as he doe's, you'd think the meters gained stat would be higher than it is
Puts his head down and runs then looks up when it's time to dispose of the ball, confusing team mates as well as himself
Seen a lot of Carlton premiership sides, he would not be in one of them.
Some players are just good home and away players, would have absolutely no confidence in him, running off the HBF for us on GF day
 
If we’re looking for a quick half back, we should ring the Tigers and enquire about Sydney Stack. He‘s got a bit of Byron Pickett about him and is pretty good by foot, like Samo. Could be the next Yarran. They’ll have to do something about him, so it’s a good time to pounce. I know he’s out 10 games, but he’s also only 20 and has played 26 games in 2 seasons. Eddie has been mentoring him a bit since the strip club fiasco also.

I’ll get howled down, but I’d do Paddy Dow for Stack and a pick upgrade (our 2nd for their 1st - about 8 picks). We’d cover the Dow loss with Williams, Kemp and some Samo. Even #7 may bring us another mid (Phillips, please please please).

Yeah, could very well end up like him too...
 
Adding Williams and Saad really changes our team. I'd expect SPS to play midfield more of Saad comes.

Cripps, Walsh, Williams, Setterfield, SPS and Ed sounds good to me
I've said it a while this year, but I really like it when SPS delivers the ball inside F50.

They'll have to do something about him but we should give up a 20 year old former pick 3 for him?

Talent is obviously important in this caper but it is far from the only consideration.

Stack was overlooked many times by each club, including Richmond, and it looks as though he still has a lot of growing up to do.

Let other clubs take that risk. And if we do decide to take a risk we certainly shouldn't be paying as much as that for one.

How much has he cost the RFC soft cap next season?

You don't want to bring these players into your club. It never ends well.

This sums up Saad



Hopefully Saad pushes Samo up the ground.

He's not the greatest kick, but at least he gets it out of the zone. I get a bit nervous when Samo takes on those high risk, low reward chips inboard which end up getting us nowhere. If you do that kick, do it inside 50, not exiting D50.

The other thing is that the additional pace of Saad may make a taller backline with Jones, Weitering, Marchbank and Plowman function a bit better against smaller attacks.
 
What we should be doing is confirming to Murphy that due to his aging body he may find himself further back in the pecking order. Selection should always be based on availability and form, we're just ******* shocking at gauging reserves form and how it translates to AFL.

That and we have a whack idea of how certain roles and certain positional play should coalesce in the AFL, which returns me to the forever critical point: sack Barker.



Stephenson is just a slight variant on McGovern. We need to think differently there, and do our best to support McGovern in the interim. He's had persistent back/hamstring issues, and the weight loss seems to have exacerbated this, which isn't unheard of and may be due to lax ligaments.

Something like that takes time for the body to adjust around.

cc Mr_Plow and SkyhorseTamer to confirm I'm not off my rocker.
Huh. Didn't get a notification for the ping. From playing experience and such I'm not worried about gov whatsoever. He's young enough to get the repeat effort ability back and that's all he needs. His skills are awesome.
