200cm quick ruck/fwd, not sure what else we would be looking at Casey for. Nothing on the melbourne list stands out especially not their depth but it would come cheap like Hamling did.
It was casey vs bombers
He might have been looking at bombers players

Fitzy wouldnt crack our defense or forward line
Waste of time even talking about it

People talk about ayce as a rookie chance to make sure we have ruck depth. If he's as good as/better than ayce, then talking about fitzy is just as valid. A rookie doesn't really need to crack our defence or forward line

Just my opinion, but Howe doesnt strike me as the type Bev would be keen on us chasing.
Heck no. He's just not that good, certainly wouldn't add much to the side apart from the occasional hangar.
There's a reason a team on a hard mission to bring in mature talent is offering less than he wants and actively shopping him around.

Are you a fan of Mark Austin, Lucas Markovic and Ed Barlow? I'm not sure we want to list the hundreds who don't make it against the half dozen who do. Doesn't seem sensible...
I don't think we should simply rule any mature aged talent out.
Outside of our rookie pick ups guys like Puopolo and Barlow have shown there are a few gems floating around and it is worth considering some of them.
If we picked up Hudson and Pods when they were under our noses would we have won one of our prelims? It's possible.

Interesting that he mentioned looking at opportunities to move up the draft order. Hope it means we're actively targeting a very high pick.

Well done on getting Suckers lads, should fit in well with the way Bev coaches!!

Just a query on Hrovat,

Would our second and Suckling Compo get it done?

I wouldn't do it , but it would have to be around the mark. What can you imagine you will get for Suckling ?
