What's the problem with Schloithe?
After T Kelly being pickup and showing what the mature age guys have to offer thought Schloithe would get a run, wouldn't mind us giving him a shot.

I feel it'd almost be negligent for us not to pick someone like him up given the injuries to our best 2 mids this year. Could providr crucial depth, much prefer him in the side than ainsworth

A player like that is also likely to be content sitting in the WAFL when we are fully fit as well.

 

[Chris_6678]

Id take him purely as a backup for a year we should be contending.

If Yeo, Shuey, Kelly ect get injured at the pointy end of the year i think a player like Schloithe would be a better option filling that role than say a Xon, Trew or Ledwards. Its worth the punt and you only need to see how Pickett went for the Tigers after filling for the GF...

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

In all honesty we really do need someone to lead our WAFL side in some way so I suspect we need to go the route of a true mature ager who can come in, sit in the WAFL team and captain it and sign a contract to stay in it thereafter.

Bugger what?

Cripps likely to re-sign with Carlton = excellent. Though I would have been happy with a Cerra/Cripps swap.
Bont likely to re-sign with Dogs = hardly a surprise
Jeremy Sharp re-signs with GCS. Not a surprise and I get the impression we were in the 'if available, look, otherwise not excited' camp.
Jordan Clark - no new news there.

There is no doubt that cost of living plays a part - and as such players at Geelong are willing to accept slightly less than if they were at another club.

Assuming housing is the main cost in their life (as it is for most people) they can pick something up ~30 mins from work (alphabet stadium), beachfront for under $3m (Torquay, Barwon Heads etc etc) or a couple of streets back for under $1.5m.

Compare that to Sydney, where the same 30mins (albeit probably only 5km or so!) from work, near the beach, would start around $3m and go up.

We need better quality depth all the time not just at the pointy end of the year.

Could be the difference in winning a close game top 4 v 5th.

If they get someone from the wafl mid year they stay with their Wafl club until next year.

That would defeat the purpose of a mid-season draft

Cripps staying at Carlton is good news for us. I think we would have moved things around to get him at the club had he asked to come home and I don’t think that’s the right thing for the long term future having just done a similar thing with Kelly.

Dev Robertson would be an astute pick up for our list position, especially if the outlay was a 2nd rounder only. Even if his ceiling is a B+ - A minus kind of footballer, how many young midfielders do we have tracking that way? O’Neill is certainly headed that way, and we have strong hopes for Trew, but there’s not many 20-23 year old midfielders waiting in the wings.

That becomes important when you consider the current centre clearance differential. Nic in his greatness is probably masking a deep area of concern we need to watch out for as he realistically only has 2-3 years left.

The irony of KPP Brander coming in and playing better as a midfielder than Jordan Clark this year.

Wasn't someone wanting them swapped the other day?

Wasn't someone wanting them swapped the other day?

Last year a Geelong supporter valued a 1st rounder and Brander for Clarke.
Ironically since last year it has reversed with Clarke now struggling to find a role and getting dropped a couple of times

 

[FKASC]

Any of those games sub games for Clark though?

Bugger? A sigh of relief, if anything. We don't need to try and bring in a guy who needs back injections to get through the week.

Not getting in the B22 is arguably worse

Yeah but what I mean is if he had one game coming on as sub it would have thrown out those averages

understands Carlton is on the verge of locking Cripps into a new deal – likely four years - that will keep West Coast at bay, while Bontempelli won’t be leaving Whitten Oval.

Yeo-Cripps trade rumour laughable: Eagles

West Coast football boss Craig Vozzo says rumours suggesting the club will consider offloading Elliot Yeo in a bid to sign Carlton star Patrick Cripps are "laughable".Cripps' current contract expires at the end of this year, and his West Australian origins means he is often linked with a move to...

Sub twice it looks like. R5 where he didn't play, and R6 against us.

Correct clint. He's been sub twice from memory, but in his full games he's hardly eclipsed Brander either.

Only real gulf apart from his marking power is that it appears Brander, for a big boy can't tackle to save his life

Reckon we should be looking at Petrevsk-Seton. Looks like he’s stagnated at Carlton (as usually happens with 90% of players who are drafted there) and he could definitely flourish in a team like ours.

Value at an all time low atm, could pick him up for a second/third rounder.
