I didn't think of that. I'm starting to go off the idea of back up defender for the MSD. However, I think the club will take the cautious approach and take tomlinson or McCartin
Id happily take either as depth and reckon we will. Dean ain’t it and the skinny syd draftee whose name escapes me is a 2026 option. Id play glover over Dean tbh if it was an option
I'm a big fan of Glover.

I'd use MSD sparignly. We won't be picking early, but with the last draft having been so deep, it's possible there's some more talented kids than normal, but generally I'd prefer us to go short term depth like Thomlinson or a mature bloke killing it in the state leagues who they think is a chance, as opposed to some long term passed over project tall - they're the ultimate list cloggers.
They don't come along often, but in recent times Tom Stewart and Callum Wilkie (just talking of tall defenders) have been found playing in state leagues. They've come into the AFL aged around 23 or so, and performed superbly. Those kind of 'gems' can be found, and I hope that's what we're looking for, even if the player we like is not a tall defender.
Including us, I hope! We might need to make him disappear for a while (I think we did that with Rupert Wills a few years back)!
tell him to start limping
Jack Hutchinson all over again
This bloke's actually playing like I expected Hutchinson to for us last year! There were quite big wraps on Hutchinson when he came to the club, especially for his marking, yet to me he wasn't super impressive (just pretty good). He still got picked up mid-season. I don't think Riley Mason attracted as much attention (when he joined us), but he's made a phenomenal start, and it's hard to see him being in our colours for much longer!
Get Krueger back ...was a bad delisting imo
He was a bad listing
We should have delisted him twice to give us an extra list spot to add Riley Mason.
I suspect Long copped that treatment last year as well… I’m not sure Mason is the right path, but I’ve liked what I’ve seen enough that I won’t have a problem if it’s the path we take. McCarthy’s progression could make it tough though because I wouldn’t want to carry 6 KPF’s on the list.
I agree - I would have kept Kreuger and let go Johnson or Dean.
