Traded Shane Kersten [traded to Fremantle for pick 63]

[ComradeSplutnik]

Geelong fans - whats the oil on Shane?

Is he any good? ( I have'nt watched too many Cats games of late )
Would he be available for a move west?
What would he cost?

Anderson on SEN said that Freo may be after him if Sunshine falls throughy.

My 2c in answer:

No
Probably
Not much

 

[S for September]

Has shown a lot in the vfl but never much at afl level. This could be because he doesn't get much focus with Hawkins, Walker, Clarke, Vardy and Stanley all options at times.
Is a decent mark on the lead and has a beautiful kick on him.

He would go for peanuts.

 

[peppy la pew]

I would love to give him a run at Freo, I wanted us to draft him

 

[Bemoreboyddog]

Was thinking about him earlier actually. Liked two of your draft picks that year in Kersten and Hamling. Wouldn't mind picking my him up for the dogs.

I posted the situation on the Geelong board somewhere and PM'd a few people... A quick search will suffice.

Basically he's a very skilful big man whose more suited to a flank role... A tall with a smalls mindset.

Might be a case of needing to string together an entire season or two before he blossoms.

I can't see anything other than a 3rd rounder getting the deal done... Second round if Freo get desperate.

 

[Kram]

He is pretty crap, pass.

A swap for colin sylvias boots.

 

[Austin_McCrabbs]

Looks a bit overweight to me.

 

[MisterMarcus]

Would be a good lead up medium-tall forward...because of our injuries to big men we've sometimes been forced to play him key forward, which he's not suited to.

Probably exactly what Freo are looking for, really.

An average footballer at this stage, who does have some talent though. I feel he would be much improved in a new environment as he is quick in a straight line, a massive kick.

In saying that he is worth probably a fourth round pick. Maybe you have depth that we could trade such as crozier, sheridon or moller

 

[Jeff76]

2 first rounders should do and Fyfe

We just Delisted Moller and I would still feel robbed if we gave him up for Kerstan.

 

[Danger Money]

Has the same intensity as Jack Watts. Does some nice things but just coasts way too often.

 

[Defacto]

freo getting desperate if they dont land mccarthy. next cab off the rank according to anderson

 

[Moo]

He didn't want to come to us on draft day - feelings mutual now.

 

[grouse mate]

A generation too late. Would of been a good fwd in the 80's, modern game doesnt suit him.

Probably a fair comment as he plays very much in straight lines. As a key forward target Fremantle would be better off prioritising McCarthy and Black.

I still like him though and think he's more than worth a spot on an AFL list. No chance in hell should he ever be in the same discussion as Moller.

Other way around champ... He was originally upset at being overlooked by both WA clubs.

Because players choose who draft them, right?

No but I do believe they control their Facebook accounts.

Sorry champ but you either have your wires crossed or like sprouting crap.

I can see a third option.

 

[Jhye Clark 13]

I can see a third option.

Maybe it was just West Coast he wanted to get to... If that was the case I apologise to Moo.

Maybe I have my wires crossed.
