You guys are aware we're going to struggle to fit everyone in to the 22 THIS year right?

Within the next month, we're going to be injury free (aside from Scharenberg?).So please, inform me where:

Reid, Brown, Dwyer, Williams, Sinclair, Kennedy, Broomhead, Freeman, Seedsman, Oxley, Karnezis and Adams are going to fit.

Then you want to try and fit Rosa in? Yeah nah.

Totally agree

And to answer your question out of that list on current form only Reid and Williams would be able to force their way into the seniors....Seedsman and Adams at a pinch

Where our list is right now unless your a star and top 10 of your position in the comp then I don't want u

I agree, which makes me wonder why our VFL side isnt dominating. We have great depth and are still only an average VFL team.

I realise we have some injuries but so does all teams

We had some injuries and looked at the result of the first game we only had 3 less scoring shots

This. He's got Carlton mid written all over him.

Or Richmond

 

[UpTheMags]

im not interested in any free agents unless they are stars or are sub-24... lets not make the same mistakes as richmond and carlton and overrate our potential for rushing back into the top 4

 

[drummoyne]

It's sideways because he doesn't provide anything we don't already have in terms of midfield strengths. He isn't fast, he isn't outside, he isn't an elite kick despite what some people seem to think. He provides no point of difference to our team and would possibly squeeze out a younger player and cost us a lot of cash.

Mundy is a underrated jet.

I watch a lot of the Dockers here in WA and he would add a lot of grunt and polish to our midfield in my opinion.

He's good, but not good enough to justify pushing out a young player and adding another 500k to the cap.

Pass.

Why would we get Mundy?

He is a downgrade on Pendlebury.

Pendles is A+

Mundy is A


Rosa can GAGF.

 

[rose jam]

Not worth the cash it'd take to move him, Hawthorn will be all over him with a bigger wallet anyway, he's the type they like to free agent for.

Mundy is an A grade quality player, he's also a big bodied mind which we are lacking at the moment. On top of all that he would greatly help us with a premiership push in the next few years and would teach our young mids a lot.

Yes what a mistake it was for Hawthorne to pick up Shaun Burgoyne and Brian Lake, not to mention Collingwood picking up Luke Ball and Darren Jolly in 2010. Will clubs ever learn?

FFS people are opposed to picking up star players just because they're not young anymore, a 25 year old gun still has 6 or 7 good years left, Mundy Still have 3 or 4 quality years left. AFL teams can go from middle of the table teams to premiers in the space of a year! Three years before winning the flag Hawthorne almost missed the finals (after picking up an 'older' player in Burgoyne), The Cats looked shot in 2010 and no one picked them for the flag just one year later, who picked Sydney for the flag in 2013?
We are not going to win the premiership by constantly developing youth, eventually you have to take a chance and go all out to win. I don't believe the competition is particular strong at the moment, GCS and GWS are still a few years away, Geelong are no longer a powerhouse, I rate Freo and the Hawks but they could easily drop away (I can see Hawthorne dropping away fast) and neither of them are as good as the Pie's or the Cat's of 2009/10/11.
We would be crazy to not enquire about Mundy, but back on topic, i'm not overly fussed about Rosa, but if he could improve the team then lets at least have a look.

Apart from the AFL injury list, the VFL list has had some key injuries too.
Anyway, with Seeds and Broomy back this week, and Willo probable, you'd think the VFL results will be on the upswing in the next few weeks.

Mundy is only going to push out players like Adams, Thomas and Kennedy who are both faster than Mundy and our is more of a concern than bigger bodies. Mundy won't push out Swan, Pendlebury or Beams and won't get a spot on the wing.

Are you saying Mundy wouldn't get a game with us at the moment?

Mundy would push out the worst midfielder of our best 22 next year, and thus make us a better team… Its quite simple really. He is a perfect replacement for Ball, and an upgrade on all of Adams, Thomas and Kennedy, H, Sidey, Caff (if Mundy's output as a mid outweighed Caff's tagging influence), and Young. Having Mundy on our list would make us a better team, you cannot possibly argue with that, the only thing stopping us from getting him is price.

Mundy on our list would make it a better list but the amounts he would be paid would mean he had to be a starting 22 player. And if he was in our team he would make it worse. We have Pendlbury so we son't need him anyways.

So you are saying if Mundy would not be a part of our best 22 at the moment (nothing to do with pay)? I'm going to assume you just don't watch a lot of free games, either that or you are just a terrible judge of talent…

Its all well and good having Pendlebury but one man doesn't make a team, what if Ablett wanted to join us for some reason, would you turn him away as he is too old and 'we already have Pendlebury'

I'm not saying Mundy isn't talented i just think he is one dimensional and the only role he could really do is the role Pendlebury role and we hav Pendlebury doing it so there is no need to Mundy. The only experienced players we we should target is a Tallish half back flank with good skills and some dash and a crumbing small forward anything else I think we are covered.

He has played at FF quite a lot over the last two years… Anything but one dimensional, and Pendlebury isn't exactly a crash and bash midfielder, while Mundy can play that role quite well. But on top of all of that he has class and you can never have too much class in your side.
In regards to 'the Pendelbury role', what exactly is it? and why can only one player play it?

Speed is overrated, Jobe Watson moves like a bulldozer yet is a top 5 midfielder in the afl, same with Josh P Kennedy and David Mundy who are both atleast top 20. Call me plain or boring but pick me a big body midfielder over a speedy outside type like a B.Hill, Yarran and Jetta. My only exception with speed is Dangerfield as he has an elite inside game to complement his speed.

And to be honest, Mundy could have no troubles pushing Swan out of our midfield at this stage.

 

[MeisterBot]

FWIW, before Mundy moved into the midfield, he was a tall-ish half back with good skills and some dash. He could still play it to a high level, but we'd be wasting him if we brought him over for that.

I have faith that Schrarenberg will become the kind of player Mundy is before too long, although I certainly wouldn't complain if Mundy is brought on board. We'd probably make Swan a permanent HFF who plays on the ball if the side needs a rev up to accommodate, like Burgoyne at Hawthorn (although Burgers plays on a back flank usually).

Aside from cap concerns though, I think the reason I wouldn't be chasing him is I don't think he is what we lack in terms of key needs for a Premiership run, which is why you'd try and chase after big money players. That said, he would definitely improve us as a team, and you have rocks in your head if you think Mundy wouldn't waltz into our best 22.

Confused me to, if we had Mundy what is stopping Pendlebury and Beams to play alongside him similar to Fyfe and Barlow? Is Collingwood restricted to only have one 190cm midfielder?
Mundy is anything but one dimensional like you said, he can play very very good footy on the back flank/pocket as well as in the forward line.
EDIT: Meisterbot beat me to it
