I’m imagining Bennell miraculously transforming from old Holden parts into an unsoppable force!

Stevo has A-Grade moments that will get more frequent
Exactly potential, definitely not there yet.

Well Cameron give us Depth at KPF/Ruck who could be in our AFL Side but at this Moment is Back-Up

Not Many Players after 2 Seasons are A Graders
Made zero effort to improve tall fwd or crumbing fwd stocks, held onto list cloggers not trying to ship em off for anything we could get rather than absolute zero, haven't yet turned 2020 first into a 2019 first. Not good enough. Only redeeming point is we have slightly improved our ruck depth.

That's one side of the coin, but once Jamie signed we were basically in a holding pattern, the cloggers are there simply because anyone else would be dollars and years instead of a packet of chips for one year while we hold onto stars, so in a way they are part of the plan and who knows with our injuries, they may even have to contribute
Solving list issues is more difficult but Quaynor and Noble add speed, Kelly, Keane and Cameron add height, Beams and Sier back adds grunt, and someone like a T Brown could come out of nowhere and do a De Goey, but any improvement will have to come from within

Caught that. I nearly drove off the road!
There must be a plan, but I'm just not getting it. Can we win a flag with what we have now, or are we conceding 2020 and having a crack in 2021.
Stephenson is surely the ultimate example of why you can't rate players like this. First year wins rising star - A+, second year suspended for betting on footy - F. Any rating in that range can be justified. Could be, and hope he'll be closer to A+ when all is said and done.

Apparently still a bit of haggling between us and Freo. Not expected to be done in the next hour.

Contracts are as much about future projections as how many runs you currently have on the board, thus Stephenson's next contract will be a fair bit bigger than his current one.

And don’t forget Wilson - with a full preseason he could easily surprise in 2020.
And Murphy is the other one I expect to make huge impact given his form prior to injury and in 2018.

Murphy could play in his Postion
If we lose any of Grundy, de Goey or Moore then I'm prepared to get on board and rate it an F.
Keep all three however then it's an A+.
Plenty of us have long suspected we wouldn't be major players this trade period as the biggest signings we can land our 3 players already on our list.

We were holding a crap hand in terms of draft picks and supposedly cap space. Without seeing the books, I get the feeling we've played our hand pretty well. Sounds like they were hoping to move Shaz on too, I'm surprised noone wanted him, might be being overpaid by a tad too much.

Especially after the Beams trade last year we where never really being a Big Presence in this Trade Period
