Honestly he should take it. He could get stuck behind the younger guys coming through the midfield with us, whereas you will lose Ablett, J.Selwood, then maybe Danger and S.Selwood in that time.

Pick a Re word... reset reinvigorate rejig etc.. but you guys are dialling it back a tad to move forward again.. its probably a win for all .. probably a Band 3 pick?

Yep we can't keep carrying so many with questionable skills, and limited (but ok) pace through the middle. Bont, Macrae, Libba and Maclean are all one-paced, but are much cleaner than Dahl and Wallis. Wallis has now shown his value playing forward a bit, and seems to be a bit cheaper. It sounds like it's on the line between Band 2/Band 3, but it's only a handful of spots difference for us.
 
looks to be a geelong type get, players who are half decent but nothing special, geelong is has niched itself into a B grade FA type team due to their recent shortcuts as they want to FA their way instead of drafting.

Reckon Hawthorn would be probing the waters as well although if it becomes a bidding war with someone (Geelong) Hawthorn would back right out.

Hawthorn are pretty well stocked for small forwards even with Cyril gone i doubt they need him much, Geelong have more of a need in that position. I would imagine Hawthorn try to improve their ageing spine if they bring anyone in.
 
If Geelong are so keen on Dahl I guess that means that Gryan Miers kid they drafted last year won't ever become a player for them. He is pretty much Dahl's clone. They don't need two on their list with the additions of Narkle and Parfitt as small forwards as well.

Narkle and Parfitt are outside mids not small forwards Gregson and McCarthy are chronically injured and likely to be delisted Parsons is average (and not a small forward in any case) and Miers is an unproven 1st year player. We definitely need a quality small forward.

Weird target to pay that amount of money for then. His output as a mid is infinitely better than as a forward. When played there this year he's been very average

I think Geelong will be hoping they can fix his goalkicking. We have a real deficiency in F50 defensive pressure and when he's been at his best he has been good at that whatever other flaws he may have.
 
Definite upgrade on S.Selwood.

He's being chased so we don't have to play small forwards like Parsons Gregson Jones etc or rely on the about 4 times a year that McCarthy and Cockatoo are actually fit. Nothing to do with Scott Selwood.
