Not a midfielder: can’t run or keep up. Too slow for his average skills also
He's someone that needs a Burgess - there's some football skills there, but he's just not in the physical shape needed to be a professional footballer.

His name is Burgess, not ****ing Merlin. Lets use this guy to get our current squad up to level without giving him miracles to achieve on the side

IF there is no VIC media bias

THEN why does GWS have a walkout problem and can’t play hardball with
Bruhn > Geelong
and cop
Taranto and Hopper > Richmond


But Crows just have to pony up with GC for Rankine ?

The logic of all the Trade Pick discussions are simply mind boggling !!!

Geelong will use pick #17 / 18 for Bruhn + .....because that's the highest Draft pick they have .....not about value, simply what GEEL hold in Draft Picks

Similar thinking with RICH .....the value of Tarranto and Hopper is pitched at the Trade Picks RICH hold

ADEL have to use #5 because that's the pick we hold on Rankine

WCE want Jackson, but everyone agree's WC shouldn't use pick #2 on him, as it would spoil their rebuild

The media trade talk at this time of the year is beyond moronic ! ......the Clubs themselves, thankfully don't listen to the media (soon to be Uber Drivers)
 
That game tonight looked like the future is small fast forward lines, and very mobile rucks who can kick and mark. Looks like Murray will be training with the rucks to me and working on his pass kicking and fitness.
i suspect port know this and why they were tring out finlayson this year and both teams passed on grundy.

we have the smalls but they're not that fast so rankine will be important.

thoughts?
I think Murray could play Ruck and up forward but the problem is that we lack KPD's down back. Our best small forward options are McAdam, Rankine, Pedlar and Rachele. McAdam is more your medium type but can play small as well. Hopefully Pedlar can get 15 games out of his body.

IF...
You categorically say pick 5 will need to be used in some form and it isn't...

THEN...
Something has to change and you should get your head around an apology because you were wrong. Can see this person dragging this right out, though.

The crows won't pony up for Rankine. A deal will get done around pick 13-18 as long as we can sort out the trade with another club. Bruhn hasn't really shown much so I don't think gws will get much more than around pick 20-25. Taranto is worth around pick 10-12 and Hopper likewise.

yes it might need to be explored because ROB is a liability and they seem reluctant to give strachan enough of a go to see

I think the Fogarty rule should be in place for Murray. I.e. leave him in one position and let him develop his game.

Especially as there is a serious KPD in him, once he finds the confidence to convert some of his spoils into intercept marks. The rest of the game is there for it.

The next step in Murray's development is to find ways to impact the game more from an offensive standpoint. His defensive work is already very good, now it's a matter of finding the ball more in defence and using it to his advantage
 
Maybe Berry or Bailey not sure but a centre bounce of Dunkley, Neale & McCluggage someone has to drop down the order
I do like your thinking. It's what rebuilding teams should do - target the young talent at the top teams who can't get the game time they want.

In terms of Brisbane, they are going to add Dunkley and Ashcroft. Both will want some midfield time.

For me that opens up opportunities for players to be poached, such as:

Zac Bailey
Jarrod Berry
Ely Smith

even someone like Rhy Mathieson at 25 years old could add something to our list.

Zac Bailey is the one I would target though.
