Towers? To borrow from Lana.. Again , not a player that would add enough to be worth the trade pain. These type of players would struggle to be best 22..id rather get kids than pay for a Towers. Get 3 picks under 30 would be better value long term. As a FA fine. Just like Jetta. Im not convinced he is a great add to be honest but FA and dollars only have to be considered.
I have a preference for us to look to the draft this year (not that I've seen any U18s footy this year) and I also don't think we have too many pieces to use to land anyone of note (but that may change between now and season's end).
If we want to add players, I tend to think some can be uncovered on teams Rookie lists and they are the types who might be more easily obtained using the 'opportunity' pitch and they shouldn't break the bank.
Towers, I think, has usually been played as an mid sized forward (which I think we probably have covered) but he has recently played more minutes in the midfield. While he could add some depth I'm not sure we should be giving up too much simply for a depth player and Towers may required more than we should or could pay.
So, in the spirit of what I just said about looking to Rookie Lists why not have a look at Sydney's Nic Newman?
He is a mid sized rebounding defender drafted out of Frankston a couple of year's ago and is currently pressing for senior selection with a string of good twos form this year.
He fits the age profile, has been in a good system at the Swans for a couple of years and is likely to still have some development left in him. I'd say he could also play right away if required. Not sure he'd cost too much and should be able to provide some rebound out of defence. A reasonably good user of the ball too by all accounts.
Just throwing it out there.
