Way too early for this and before the trade period/draft/pre season but just too see what options are in the squad
My changes
Patton LTI list
Keefe Delisted I think a small chance he could be moved to the rookie list
TOJ Traded
Griffen RETIRED
Tiziani Rookie list I think he should be back playing by the bye
Mohr Retired
D Buckley Delisted
S Reid NEAFL player coach
Stein Re-rookied
5 picks in the National draft (1 used on Lloyd) and pick up 2 rookies + Tiziani
Shaw Davis Haynes
Williams Corr Kennedy
Whitfield Ward Scully
Shiel Cameron Kelly
TT HH Greene
Lobb Coniglio Hopper
Deledio Tomlinson Langdon Taylor
Arguments could be made for several players too come in but based on the last form line of the players this is what I would look at, I think lacking options for tall forwards which is good because it could mean they play a smaller forward line with better defensive pressure and also opportunities could open up for Flynn and Sproule during the year
Strong midfield with Kelly and Shiel on the HFF but I think Ward could spend less time in the midfield next year and if he spends more time forward or back will be worked on during the off season
NEAFL
Buntine Stein Cumming
Perryman XXX(KPD draft) XXX(First pick draft)
Setterfield Reid MDB
Tiziani J Buckley Lloyd
Daniels Sproule Flynn
Simpson Shipley Bonar
Briggs Walker Peatling/first rookie draft pick XXX Second rookie draft pick
I think the KPD question is an interesting one with most posters thinking Mohr will retire does the club keep Keefe around for another year?
It could depend on the trade/draft period with maybe a cheap DFA an option or if they have their eyes on someone in the draft. I would like the club to pick up Koschitzke with the clubs second pick as although not an academy member I am sure the club has had a good look at him, plenty of other academy talls to look at but he looks the most promising
Also I would like the club to try and keep a couple of the ex players around like Reid/D Buckley/Keefe to work with the academy players and also play some games during the season or a player/development coach would be ex player J Barrett delisted by the Lions
