Review List Management

[_RT_]

What about the coach me thinks King is way beyond our magician? Everyone thought they will be another essendon but one change shows how you can make a diffrence.

King has a rather experienced side with a number of premiership players still at his disposal, whereas Yze is dealing with a large injury list and a list that is being completely rebuilt

Harsh on Clarke. At least give him one full pre season to show his worth surely.

We'll have to keep lynch if we can't find another stop gap big body that can take a defender away from the kids. Amartey would do for a couple of years.

Riccardi from GWS is out of contract, and hes a good 2nd ruck option. Hes 26 amd from Vic from memory.

That’s why I said at this stage. If Clarke has a promising second half of the season and can nab an AFL game or 2 then for sure give him another year.

Wasn’t aware of Riccardi, good shout but depends on the GWS cap space.

Interesting to see what we do with Clarke. I wouldn’t delist him just yet. Give him an opportunity, even as a rookie or whatever.

 

[NZ_Tiger]

Nank is a terrible tap ruck and Ryan and OHB shouldn’t be on a list. We have ignored tap outs and wonder why our midfield is shit. Playing without the ball went out of fashion in 2020 yet we have done nothing in 5 years to address our stoppage short comings.

Even spending big on Hopper and Taranto didn’t work because we failed to acknowledge that tap outs are important.

Clarke doing brtter job wc at drafting than hartley (hes a better trader though)

Riccardi wouldn’t be a bad bet either , our f50 desperately needs players that can mark the footy and kick . This bloke does that pretty well

Don’t tell the brains trust around here that they berated Clarke as some turkey . Since he’s been there , they haven’t missed
While we traded Bolton for hotton / Faull
Rioli for smillie
You can’t make this stuff up

Clarke doesn't do the drafting nor does Hartley. What you've just said is Hartley > Clarke at their job

Accurate ... but we cant enter next year without a senior durable reliable key forward.

Mihochek would have been handy. If lynch is out, they need someone good in

Did state that Amartey as FA would fill the lynch role. Actually plays and more than adequate until the young tallest take over.

Interesting interview with Adem on Agenda Setters, hinting at major acquisitions.
Hope they recruit a quality ruck for next year.
Madden should be a top priority.

The guy not getting a game at GWS who have a reasonably beaten up Briggs in front of him will be the answer to our prayers?

I like his physicality but he isn't the next Simon Madden.

What I'd be doing with the players coming out of contract this year;

Alger - extend
Broad - retire/delist similar to McIntosh last year
Burton - extend
Clarke - extend 1 yr or delist/rookie
Fawcett - extend
Green - extend
Hayes-Brown - delist
Lefau - delist
Lynch - players choice
Mansell - extend
Nankervis - extend
Prestia - retire/delist similar to McIntosh
Ralphsmith - delist
Retschko - extend
Rioli - extend
Smith - delist
Sonsie - extend
Trezise - delist
Vlastuin - extend

Out: Broad Hayes-Brown(cat B) Lefau(r) Prestia Ralphsmith Smith Trezise(r)

Possibly Gone From Senior List: Clarke Lynch

That would give us up to 6 senior list spots to fill, plus 1-2 rookie list spots depending on what happens with Clarke and would allow us to go hard in 1 final uncompromised draft before Tasmania come in. After this year I'd then start to go hard at the free agent/trade market.

Agree with all of them. I'd like to get another look at Smith in the seniors before he gets the chop though. Still think there is something there to work with. Maybe hold onto Trezise for one more year too.
