now that he has proven himself as a defender would we want to pick him up? and have him and brown swappin as a tall wing man and tall defender?
 
would be a great acquisition, but like many suggested targets on this site, he wont come cheap!! not only would we have to pay out his existing contract at brisbane and then match that price for an extended period (say 2 years), we would also have to offer something pretty big to brisbane in exchange. i doubt we would have much that they would want, would probably ask for our 1st pick and a young kid (maybe hale).

He would be ideal for us.

I think our 1st pick would be enough. He's not top shelf like a J.Rawlings so I think hes within our reach.
He can play FB, CHB & FF and would give us some real flexibilty in the key position department.

He'd be a handy player to pick up if it was via the draft but NOT as a trade. Not one to sell the farm for - too big of a gap between his best and worst football IMO.
 
he reminds me a lot of bizzell....inconsistent forward never living up to (unfair) expectations, but a very good backman

But how much of his "worst" footy is just a case of him being plonked on the bench because Lynch is on fire and there's rarely room for both?

Great on a lead, a good kick, sure hands and plays a lot taller and more solid than most blokes his size.

A big finals series will see his value go up though, but I doubt he will be on more than $250k a year.

Ironically though, that exact same factor may help to lure him away from Brisbane, as any extra value might see that 110% cap get squeezed a little bit more.
