Mad Monday.Then what is the Hold Up then?
I hope soHow is Treloar, Adams and Sidebottom going past Pendlebury (according to you) a bad things, it means that they are improving.
Penlebury is the #16 rated player in the comp (higher than all players you mentioned)
He was sick for the majority of the finals and i think your overreacting massively.
Which stats was he down on?
AgreeWhilst I agree trading Sier, Thomas and Langdon is beyond stupid people are entitled to their opinions.
I'd rather we not spent our capital on May and gamble on enough of Moore, Dunn, Reid or even McLarty being fit enough to get through a season. I don't think you get bang for your buck giving away first rounders for full backs when we already have some reasonably effective (albeit injured) full backs and you can recruit from state leagues or as rejects of other clubs lists.
We should use our spending power on midfielders or forwards where you really do get what you pay for. Jack Martin, Gaff or Shiel should be the priority imo.
I say we are in win now so would be going whoever could make the most difference to our chances in 2019, 2020. So that would be Shiel, Martin or Gaff if available.Agree
Why give Dunne another year if your main aim is for May to come in ?. I would say, hang tight at GC and we will guarantee you a spot in 2020. Outside mid speed is needed, Pendles is coming to an end. We either go for Shiel now, or wait for both, Kelly and a free May in 2020 ?

Dude. He's very clearly not as clean, is getting mown down and dishing up more shank kicks (rare for him). He looks gaunt this year. I don't know if the babies sleeping in the room but he's been well below his best this year.
Absolutely - everyone is entitled to their opinion. However when you see these kinds of comments (not to mention Pendlebury being 'finished' by this time next year - I can't even start on that), it just strikes me as such a complete waste of time and energy to both write, and read. Just my two cents.
McLarty is an important name to bring up - it's a shame that we haven't been able to see him on the big stage as yet. His VFL form has been a bit of a mixed bag so far, however this year seemed more good than bad. On paper he is essentially everything we'd love to bring into the club - a defender with a big frame, strong body, very good hands and young. A bonus is that he's of great character. His non-selection so far may show that the club are reserved on him, although he did manage to crack the emergencies on multiple occasions so perhaps I'm making something out of nothing there.
Regarding Jack Martin - he'd be a dream. Highly doubt that Gold Coast would allow him to leave, certainly if May (in addition to Lynch) is on the way out.
Dude - no one said he was having his best year!!!.
But his STATS do hold up and don't support the down cast view by some here.
Some here are trying to make a case for a poor season based on a poor Final series, which is just misguided.
Maybe retiring this time next year is an exaggeration because imo he can retire when he wants, however, his days of meaningful contribution are fast coming to an end. I don't think he has the scope of players like Hodge or Burgoyne to move into defence and be a quality player. I was really disappointed with his finals series, as I keep on repeating his numbers were poor, it was littered with mistakes he never used to make, and he wasn't receiving any attention from the opposition. In the face of Sidebottom getting the hard tag we really needed him to stand up in the GF and he didn't
Hence we should be targeting gaff and any KP talent we can prise from another club.We have a good young list that needs key position players and more outside speed.
Not for me. Kicking is horrible.Worth a Look?
Worth a Look?
And yet he made the top 40 All Australian list?Sadly I stand by it, his drop off this season has been alarming imo. To put it another way he's gone from a our clear best midfielder to probably our 4th best in one season - Treloar, Adams and Sidebottom are all clearly better now - by next season it is 5th best if De Goey moves into the midfield which is likely imo.

Langdon isn’t a FA.Langdon a free agent?
Freo offer $600k that has to be a decent pick?

Hes out of contract not a free agent. In a similar trade a few years back Joel Hamling went from Dogs (after they won the flag) to Freo for pick 35. We'd prob only get a second round pick.Langdon a free agent?

If the rumours are true of courseNot a FA, just out of contract.
Early second or 2019 2nd is my guess.
