Well I wanted him to eventually fill ballantynes spot eventually. Bennell at his best can be a 40 goal a season player like ballantyne or Walters. That's what I hope he will be. I'm not sure if we can secure a gun forward but still will be happy to grab a 190cm Howe's or crameri type that can kick 30-40 goals a season. Or another westoff type tall that can play both ends that at the worst case scenario he can be a useful depth player.
Liked him a lot early, but has been stagnating for years now...
Matera looks like he could be a bust. WAFL/NEAFL might be his peak.
Coniglio would've been a good one to get but he's resigned recently too.
I'd love the O'Meara of 2 years ago - it'll be interesting to see if he can still hit that peak when he gets back on the park (or if he does0
Wasn't Blackburn pre-premier league?
They also had Alan Shearer

Yes and no. Yes they bought Sutton and shearer. But they also got some bargain buys too

Our best 22 in 2017
Some holes need to be filled. The current crop can't fill the holes. Hopefully a few trades could fill some of them. One maybe from first pick in the draft. Pavlich could slot in at full forward If he chooses to play on or maybe a McCarthy if we are to nab him free of cost.
Spurr. A. Pearce. ..........
Johnson. ........... .............
Hill. Mundy. D. Pearce
......... Taberner Bennel
Walters. ............. Ballantyne
Ruck :
Sandilands
Fyfe
Neale
Bench:
Weller
Langdon

I was only young but I remember the uproar when Shearer went to Newcastle. £15 million pound contract! It was a news headline for weeks.
The forward 6 is a big concern. Walters and McCarthy are the only natural forwards under 26.
Not sure I understand this post.
Dawson will be there next year and two of Sheridan, Sutcliffe, Hughes or Langdon can fill the non key defensive posts. Or Mundy moves permanently back and Blakely plays centre.
Crozier is an option for one of the HFFs, as Yarran or Mayne would be.
The only real gap is a key forward. And confidence and those injured players.

Looking ahead to round 1 2017 and, barring injuries and assuming we miss out out on McCarthy ( never understimate Bond's ability to fail ) the team should be something like this:
Spurr - Dawson - Mundy
Hughes - Pearce A - Tucker
Sheridan - Barlow - Hill
Bennell - Taberner - Weller
Walters - Apeness - Yarran
Sandilands - Fyfe - Neale
Blakely - Langdon - Morabito - Grey
On paper this team would have a fair bit of potential not to mention speed.
Mundy should from now on play as a distributor in defence a la Johnno
Apeness could give sandi help in the ruck.
All the youngsters will have had 10+ more games under their belts.

I like the look of that backline.
Grey could even take the place of Spurr over time and then Dawson must be replaced asap in 2017 by a more useful user of the ball (and without losing any of his defensive qualities of course
)So basically your saying the defense for the past 6 games will do the job next year ? Sheridan,sutcliffe,Dawson arnt good enough to play on a quality forward line let alone be in a quality best 6 backline

I'd love to see Matera in purple, he can clearly play but there seems to be something missing. Application maybe?
Anyone know David Swallows contract situation?
