Both has potential to be A grade goal kicking midfielders. Strangely, I initially thought Rachele will have a higher chance to develop into an elite midfielder after transitioning into the midfield for the first month but starting to think Pedlar might now as he looks more natural in clearance. You?
Roast How diabolical is our midfield?

B graders. Both with glaring flaws. Pedlar has the tools but his inability to find the footy/get easy ball will hold him back. Might just be an endurance thing but might not be. Sometimes I swear people think everyone is going to be A graders because they show glimpses. It’s like people think becoming an A grader (and actually maintaining that level) is super easy. We have 0 mids.
He seemed to be around where the ball was a lot tonight but just didn't make anything of it.
You’d probably take our defence and forward line over ports, yet they are on a 9 game winning streak and we are getting belted in the midfield.
Midfield midfield midfield, can cover the deficiencies elsewhere.

Well, given you saying Laird is a C grader when he is clearly a B+ grader then I'm spot on saying they will be A grader.

Pedlar will win a Brownlow

Doughty had a really good second half of his career, once he stopped frequenting the pub every second day.
Didn’t Reilly make AA or the squad?

People do need to settle in saying none of your young talent are potential A grade mids, let’s not forget people were calling rozee a stagnanting small forward 2 years ago
Probably only the people that cannot be impartial to port.
Gonna happen though
I’ll leave it to you
I wonder if our clubs do a mutual beneficial trade for Tom Powell. I rate Tommy but he is not getting midfield minutes in his preferred position. Our midfield is/will be stacked and our cupboard is bare for KP players.
You guys have any surplus KP players under 26 years ?

How much promise has Powell shown recently in the AFL time he has gotten, and in the VFL?
We need A graders
Flashes of brilliance mixed with inconsistency. He has the potential to develop into an A grader IMO. Trading him could bite us on the arse but you have to give up quality sometimes to get quality in return..

Swap for Worrell?
I know Josh has just signed a contract but surely he'd jump at not just being considered injury backup.

He can’t go on
yes, that is the exact rebuild strategy that we deployed. It's my worst nightmare, sneaking into or just missing the 8 with Sloane, Laird and Keays 3 of our 4 key stoppage mids. Rebuild was completed long ago, our entire focus has been on selecting to be in the convo for the 8 for 3 seasons.
