Danny Meyer - delisted

[the ranger]

A lot of Tiger fans annoyed that he's been delisted. Just starting to show some signs after battling injury the last few years. Deserves a chance somewhere.

 

[crows dude]

I'm fairly sure he was involved with Richmond actually.

Just as a local recruiter.

His old man lives and works here in Adelaide. He works in Marketing for the Public Transport Division.

David Rodan was pretty shit at Richmond as well.

Pick him up I say

he's been a bit shit recently across the road too.
one hit wonder, rodan is a nothing player.

which makes me slightly hypocritical as I'm all for getting Meyer into our system for free to see if we can un-shit him. which is obviously craigy's version of an anti-richmond enema.

Yeah, seems a VERY low risk option at pick 76 (or even as one of our rookies). He had a bit of talent and leg speed when he went to Richmond and was injured much of his time there. I'd be all for taking him.

I think he would be alright, oe of those 50/50 decisions, however I think you guys would be better off picking up Damon White. I think he can fill the forward role you need. Meyer wasnt a bad player when he was fit but I guess thats the risk you have to take

 

[bigpapagman]

he's shit.

 

[KUNG FU]

Head issues. Pass.

 

[Gets!]

Head issues. Pass.

Agreed.

 

[crowman_23]

I actually wouldn't mind him myself. But I doubt Adelaide will be interested in him really.

Id prefer Damon White, the crows had a huge ploy to lure him over to the crow s a few years ago, only for the deal to fall through. Id be very surprised to see Meyer or White get picked up, especially during Adelaide's "rebuild" phase.

Beautiful user of the ball and great awareness of the play. You blokes really dont need this type of player though, with Bock, Johncock, Doughty, Symes, Vince, Van Berlo etc

I thought he was hard done by to be delisted, but we all know Wallace is a moron.

You can never have too many of those.

Danny has all the talent in the world and i think we are just the club that can get him to reach his potential. That ability of the club is the reason Moran wanted to come to adelaide. Dannys very very quick, has elite kicking skills and has a MASSIVE leap on him. EDIT: He is also a two sided player which gives him that extra bit of time to hit a target

I would be estatic if we gave him a 2nd chance as long as we are sure he can get over his hip issues.

 

[Crow-mo]

setting aside the argument about meyer himself, how is it we claim to be a club of such great culture but rarely taken on a high talent project?

surely if we really did have this culture, then we could be in a position to turn these guys around?

fwiw, I do not believe we do have this great culture at all, but that's another matter; if we do believe it, why don't we try and leverage it?

He can kick, but he doesn't get enough of the ball to make it worthwhile.
At 22, still doesn't have the engine to play midfield so you'd think he never will.
He has attitudfe problems. When not getting a game (which was regularly)he sulked and sooked instead of pulling his socks up and getting stuck into it.
Bad hip problems.
Forward pocket goalsneaks are fast becoming the AFL's equivalent of a dinosaur.
Keep well away from him. I'm glad we delisted him.
