I think you need a gun number one KPF stopper type KPD. Your midfield is very good to protect your backline, I'd say it's even better than our midfield especially when Dunkley and Treloar are fit and firing again. I personally rate Keith and he's pretty good at stopping the best oppo forwards but I think he's best suited as a second tall interceptor where he can use his intercept marking ability while playing on the second forward. Roughy would've been perfect had he stayed. Ben McKay would've also been a perfect get but he's re-signed.
A second need in my opinion is a ruck. Martin turns 35 at the end of the year and English doesn't seem to play his best footy as the main ruck. I think English operates best as a third tall to support Naughton and Bruce. Players who come to mind are.
Edit didn't know: Sean Darcy resigned until 2024 last week and I've added Lloyd Meek to the list..
- Daniel Talia (197cms) would be a perfect get but I don't think he would come over with the phone gate thing with his brother. But if both him and the club moved on from phone gate and don't care about it anymore then he would be a perfect choice to support Keith down back.
- Ben Miller (198cms) from Richmond and performing well at the VFL and will get senior games now Balta's injured. Maybe young an inexperienced but will become a gun in the future. Will be pushed out once Balta, Astbury and Broad are fit.
- Sam Collins (194cms) OOC at the end of 2022 but would be a great fullback for you.
- Harry Edwards (200cms) also OOC at the end of 2022 but stuck behind McGovern, Barrass and Rotham and will only play seniors when one of them especially McGovern and Barrass are injured. I personally don't want him to go though.
- Alex Pearce (201cms) again OOC at the end of 2022 but is injury prone and maybe behind Brennan Cox in the KPD order. Was in AA form in the first half of 2019. No I don't think Hamling will want to comeback, even more injury prone than Pearce. I think you can get his body right.
- Robbie Tarrant (196cms) a free agent. Maybe 33 next year but will provide experience for your backline, he can still play on the best key forwards. A bit of a Brian Lake type move.
- Will Schofield (196cms) retired at the moment but if he wants to comeback again then the Dogs would be the perfect destination but it's unlikely he'll comeback. Will be 33 next year but still enough time for another last hurrah at AFL level before retiring AFL for good.
- Darcy Moore (203cms) Absolute gun this guy becomes a likely restricted free agent in 2022, if you get him now then you'd have to give up someone like Dunkley or lots of draft picks which will put you into deficit when drafting Sam Darcy. You could also do the unthinkable in trading in Moore for JUH plus some draft picks considering Collingwood need Key Forwards. Yes you may think he's not ready but he's the number one pick and most guys in the top ten have already gotten a debut this year.
- Harris Andrews (202cms) A dream get for any club but he'll be a Lion for life especially he's from Brisbane.
A second need in my opinion is a ruck. Martin turns 35 at the end of the year and English doesn't seem to play his best footy as the main ruck. I think English operates best as a third tall to support Naughton and Bruce. Players who come to mind are.
- Rhys Stanley; A unrestricted free agent and out of favor at Geelong as Scott seems to prefer Blicavs/Ratogolea combo. Like English, he's also athletic but doesn't win as much hitouts which is fine as you midfield are very good at sharking taps.
Sean Darcy; Starting to become a gun player but seems to like the Dockers. If he does move back to Vic then he'll probably want to go to Geelong.- Lloyd Meek; Depth at Freo, with Darcy emerging I think he maybe gettable.
- Jonathon Ceglar; Seems to be out of favour at the Hawks as they prefer going small as in no genuine second ruck and having McEvoy as their main ruck.
- Mason Cox; OOC at the end of the year with Darcy Cameron ahead of him and the recruitment of two KPFs in the mid season draft and they may also get in another KPF to put a nail in Cox's coffin at Collingwood. Would be a good first ruck as he's shown back in R22 2017 and since he was Collingwood's number one forward, he can pinch hit up forward if needed. He's a much better tap than Grundy as it's more likely going to find a teammate unlike Grundy's taps.
- Todd Goldstein; A gun ruck for North, not sure if he'll leave though as he's likely going to be a one club player.
