Trac has 878 out of bounds on the fulls when having a shot also to be fair

Watching people get excited at McStay convinces me that if Weid was at another club some of the same people who want him gone now would be salivating at the prospect of trading for a 25 year old key forward who averages a goal a game.

Taranto is an A-grader mate. No different to Viney. I don't buy into your hyperbole about Viney being pendles lol.
Taranto makes any team better. And he's still only 24.
Also Petracca played half fwd for the first 4 years of his career. Further to that, recent form is the most important form. And 9.21 is bloody disgusting. His ball drop is horrendous. He kicks more goals from the midfield than he does up fwd so keep him in the middle.
Genuinely thought this last night

Agreed. McStay look like he is as stiff as a board. I question his mobility and I don't seem him playing beyond 30.
I agree, we shouldn't overpay, but that goes for any recruit really. But Tomlinson isn't a true forward as they go. I think his role is 3rd tall back, or pinch it on the wing.
Where as, McStay would be a same/same for TMc, with probably a harder attack on the ball. And genuinely is a swingman. This lets us have flexibility with Jvan Rooyen.

why wouldn't we have cap space if we lost Jackson?

still an if. and IF that was the case i doubt we'd go for a mid lol
Recruiting McStay would be to replace TMc. In other words, a 3rd tall forward, who can go back. Experienced, and would slot straight into the side. As our window is open.
We still need to draft another young tall forward of serious height, as the replacement for BBB.
Yes, you can never have too many inside mids!
While we’re at it, let’s go for Cripps, Neale, Libba, Taylor Adams, Ben Cunnington, Jarryd Lyons and a few others. Just play a full team of inside mids FTW

oh yeah, you're probably right in terms of needs. Key Forward is still a massive issue. But there's really no-one on offer. I'd rather a Taranto than overpay for a guy like Mcstay. It seems like doing that would be like trying to squeeze a square peg into a round hole.

lets get Charlie Constable too while we're at it. Could we lure Dom Tyson out of North VFL too????Yes, you can never have too many inside mids!

I hope so but I'm not too sure where our first pick is, maybe pick 35ish? No doubt we'll pick up a key forward/ruck in the draft. I really think we need an athletic tall forward. I'm happy for him to be a beanpole and we develop him. I do think Jason Taylor and Tim Lamb are going to be extremely aggressive in this trade period, because our need for a ruck/forward is already urgent. If Jackson leaves, 10 times more so. I do trust Jason Taylor with his picks and I love that we're aggressive usually. And we need to be.

You can say he's replacing Daw if you want, still doesn't change the fact you'd be paying half a million to be an average third tall forward when we already have Weid and Tmac on the list and hopefully an up and coming key forward in Van Rooyen

I think we just put midfielders in every position or something.

fair enough, though every other objection posed remains as far as I'm concerned

yeah no way we'd ever get him. he was forward while Toby Greene was out and did well but he's a way better mid

I find it difficult to picture his choosing us to play a non-preferred position especially as he would likely get paid more elsewhere. Though I like the idea of mixing it up in the forward line. So deep forward can be Taranto, Viney and um.... Oliver, with Kozzy to CHB, Fritta to ruck and Gawn to North Melbourne

I don't actually. Bizarre. Was it people thinking he would leave, or people wanting to trade him?
