Pretty good list of players in there. I hope that we can pick up either Kent Kingsley or Jason Cloke. WHo would you guys like to get?

Apparently Harry Miller hasn't got the best attitude to the game going around...Hayden Skipworth just got the chop from the Crows, worth a look? Always thought he was an alright player, might be a good pickup!
 
Kane is a bit like Amon Buchanan in the respect that he's got a hard body that can crash through the middle but has great leg speed. Something we could utilize well if we picked him up, plus he's a young Victorian kid that can be taken on the rookie list if I'm not mistaken. Really worth a punt IMO, I'm pretty sure he played against us when we played the Hawks this year so there's something to look back on

Will we even have a pick in the PSD? We only delisted 3 players and we have 4 draft selections.
I highly doubt it. Someone else (Godfrey) would have to be delisted or Nicho would have to retire for us to even utilse our 4th draft pick.

Apparently the MFC think our current list can take us to a flag...hmm....

I would consider taking Kingsley on a 1 year deal, at the very least it means he couldn't play well against us.

We do need someone to replace an ageing Nick Sautner.
 
josh thurgood?
i remember him being good before he got injured.
surely he'll get picked up by someone...

Josh Thurgood will never be big enough to play at AFL level. Yes he looked good in his first year but he hasn't gotten any bigger or improved as a player since then which is why Hawthorn have delisted him.
 
Don't know how reliable the source is, but have heard that Kent Kingsley has been told by Richmond that they will draft him in the PSD.

sautner had a ripper of a year!!

What pisses me off with Sautner is he is holding back Newton's development, but unfortunately Sandy are an affiliate, not an actual part of the MFC, so they can play any of our players in any position they choose.
However IMO they give our young players a great sense of a winning culture and hopefully this translates to the MFC.

Yeah, i'm really hoping that changes in 2007. I'd love to see Newton get more game time in Sandy seniors

Heard from an ex Dee that Nicho has been convinced by the club to retire.
I hope he does retire. No good at Melbourne, can sign for sandy if they want him.
 
You'd think big Nicho would get the hint that he isn't welcome. Although that doesn't mean to say he hasn't been a great servant to the club but I think it's time he should move on. Given that, does anyone think that Read will get picked up again? I'd think someone would take 426 aswell, maybe Carlton who are lacking ruck stocks atm
 
From what I have seen of Nick Smith he is not a ruckman he is a full forward. For mine it was a strange decision to delist him given he had finally got through a full season for Sandy and had shown that he can take a contested grab. For mine he was worth another year. Presumably Daniher et al have faith in Newton.

Lets hope that at least 2 of the 3 contracted and not in our best 22 veterans Bizzell, Brown and Nicho retire.
