These are the exact type of players we should be able to target now. The guys who are not getting games in their early 20's because a club like the Hawks has gone out and filled up with a load of mature players from other clubs. You just need to be confident they are not hacks. Cats, Hawks, Pies have all done this, now Crows just brought in a load of mature talent. There will be others. Find these Nankervis, Houli, Grigg types that will be lurking on lists out there 3-4 years into their careers who will be super keen to move for regular first team footy. Don't overdo it but at least 2-3 of them would be good.
There’s heaps around target early and get 3 in
 
I was projecting before our boys peak. Once they do it'll be:

1. Reid
2. Lalor
3. JHF
4. Daicos
5. FOS
6. Smillie
7. Hotton

...
151. J. Smith

I think you forget how good a forward Ablett was and how strong he was that he played like those hybrid monsters despite his size. His ability one on one is probably only matched by Dusty when playing one out in forward line.

He is the best player of the 21st century and I’m not sure it’s close between him and the next bunch in Dusty/Judd/Buddy. Fyfe is quite clearly another rung down from those 3.
I was with you up until the ridiculous suggestion anyone was better than Dusty.

Looking at defensive stats for mids, I can see why so many clubs are keen on Matt Rowell. #1 in the AFL for tackles and pressure acts last year.

A few whispers that we have interest, but I think if he left GC it would probably be to a contender + we already have Taranto and Hopper in there who are also slow inside players.

In an ideal world we'd look to bring Rowell in, and then offload Hopper. That would give us a more balanced midfield group in the long term.
 
Ah damn, knew saints had offered him stupid coin but missed him re-signing.

Still go hard in 4 years. Tigers were so desperate for him in his draft year.

4 years is perfect time for us to pounce, worked out amazing that he turned the saints down...
