Title: Band-Aid Solution
Post by: WA Tiger on October 06, 2016, 05:28:00 PM
Are we doing it again, putting a band-aid on the festering sore? The talk of Nankervis, Williams, Hartlett, and these sorts of "average" players being looked at to join the club??

Speculation yes, but we have done this before. I think its great we are getting Prestia but the others, they can't line up for their respective clubs now. We either take damaged players or fringe players and that's one reason why we just can't move forward.

Maybe Nankervis will be something, maybe he won' and we will have another player that just goes through the motions (save your Hampson comments, this thread is not about him).

Thoughts.

We wont be getting HH but hes a jet, so I wouldnt have an issue with him coming accross for the right price.

We desperately need another ruckman. He seems as good an optio  as we can find at the moment. Even if we were totally bottoming out and rebuilding he would be a reasonable choice imo. Unfortunately, good ruckman dont just appear out of thin air, or even are likely with a top 20 pick.

Williams might be silly to go for, but he did okay at Cwood this year. Its a no for mine.

Sorry to start more talk in another thread, but what do you consider the right price for HH?

Any player is a good or bad pickup at a certain price. Remember that he's got four years to run on a contract at Port reportedly worth $500-600k/year. I would want Port to pay some of that.

Its totally moot now he's not going anywhere, but his trade value is a little dependant on a few things.

IF for example, we were willing to take up the entirety of his contract (around 650 I think) then we could probably get him for something like a late first round early 2nd round selection - with some sweeteners thrown in.

His raw trade value I would put at mid first round - pick 10 - 15. He's a top 4 selection who when playing his best football warrants that pick. His inconsistency should be reflected in the trade value.

Just my opinion of course.

Isn't HH injury prone? If so this is another example of us chasing broken down players.

We could probably go back 3 times more before this lot and find the exact same process being followed. Unreal really and then look at the Dogs, they make the call and look at them now.. do we really think we are so close to a flag that band aiding works?

Maybe we are trying to follow the Swans process but we are failing dismally..

Can we put Hampson in just for the taps down the throats of the opposition mids and then take him off immediately to replace him with this bloke?

Gif wasn't long enough to show he laid a tackle just prior to that and then got up. Compare that to the last gif of Hampson never leaving the centre square :lol. So probably after, unless not all ruckman do this?

+1 we are trying to build through the middle and doing average at it. At least we have our own VFL side now. It might help if we had an Academy somewhere.

Under Wallace your also right the same process but we did it badly then. I remember Wallace talking about a 15 16 goal side and how he wanted to keep his senior players from the previous team and something about convincing them he wanted to win from the get go and wasn't going to tank.

The sense of Deja vu is palpable

Imo the simple fact is we need a younger ruckman around the 22 - 24 yo range and we need another junior ruckman maybe rookie or late nd pick.
Toby Nankervis is only 22 and while i have paid little attention to him he seems to be tracking along quite nicely.
I can see why Sydney would not want to lose him it is not as if they are bulging at the seams with quality front line ruckmen. If they were to lose Naismith Nankervis would be it.

Post by: Dougeytherichmondfan on October 10, 2016, 11:16:17 PM
I certainly think he's the type of player we should be targeting.

Comes from a good club/culture/program. Works hard (reflected in effort stats like tackling). Right age. Wants more game time (likely to get plenty of games with us).

Bringing him down wouldn't be a "band-aid/papering over the cracks" solution IMO.

Go get him tiges!

At the NAB AFL Under-18 Championships for Tasmania, Nankervis was named the joint winner of the Harrison Medal, awarded to the best player in division two. He won the ruck position in the All Australian side, and established himself as perhaps the most commanding ruck around. His standout game came against Northern Territory, when he kicked five goals, had 22 possessions and took nine marks. Throughout the Championships, Nankervis averaged 21.4 disposals, 18 hit outs, close to eight and a half marks and just over a goal a game.

 :clapping :clapping
Still only young and he barracked for Essendon so at least we know they're out of the race ;)

I still think we should get Michael Barlow out of Freeo. He would come cheap or free with Freeo rebuilding. He is still uncontracted.
He is a very solid player still and works extremely hard which he could teach.
I'd prefer to see him in the middle than Grigg, BEllis.

What do others think of that Ellis-Yolmen from Adelaide? Another big bodied mid that works pretty hard from what I have seen.

We need big bodied hard working mids.... forget Prestia.

What peeves me off is when the Swans lost Mumford it was recognised that he swans had a huge hole in the ruck area.

However in a few years they have fixed that up with four serviceable ruck options.

We on the other hand have seen the decline of Maric, the incompetence of Hampson, the uselessness of Ty and Griffiths for years and still have done nothing to bolster this area up.

Sinclair is a ruck and plays forward sometimes.
Tipit is pretty good in the ruck too but just more valuable down forward as he is a good mark and kick for goal.

ffs we need a promising development ruckman we also need another junior.

Can anyone come up with a better option than Nankervis. FFS so many reactionaries on this site.
We all agree we want better than Hampson yet most dont want a bar of anyone older than 24  so what the hell does it leave. WE COULD TRADE INTO A TOP 20 PICK AND HAVE A CRACK AT TIM ENGLISH !!!!. I can see how that will go down with people around here.

Lids is old and has had injuries.

However given he almost broke the record for most games in a row, and has a Hercules like physic  - it is quite possible he will play a lot of games in up coming seasons.

Yeah lets not forget how many games he played in a row before his injury, so why couldn't he do that again.

Caddy, massive POTENTIAL tag just like all the other band-aid players we have picked up. Will be another Hunt. Clubs must pee themselves laughing at us this time of year....oh, hang on, they laugh all year round at us.

Nankervis.....POTENTIAL.......Caddy ........POTENTIAL... gee, we are so lucky.

Wonder if Geelong would manage Lids better than us.

They're excellent at keeping their ageing stars on the field over the last 5+ years. Makes me wonder if they could get 40 games from Lids in two years compared to our likely 20.

The doggies will take care of lids  - latest 

Big upgrade of te like is adcock / suckling. Lids is more than capable of playing his role ... Any role.

The hae gotten good football from murphy old Boyd types too 

Smart move doggies. His class will build a dynasty  :shh

Talk about Caddy from the Cats for Lids. Another band-aid player.

The bloke wanted Marcon to be put on the main list because he's the cream. What do you expect?

For those who love some nostalgia there is some gold in this thread.

All I can say is that most of these potential players sure lived up to it and then some.

We are better off just starting again, years of the fringe players has not worked, I am not sure why they cant see it.

Cause didn't reckons

Chaplin
Grigg
Houli
Morris
Hunt
Hampson
Maric
Hunt
Morris
Yarren and friends

Will win RFC a flag

RFC thinks Betamax and dimma are good at what they so

The circle of life

We could probably go back 3 times more before this lot and find the exact same process being followed. Unreal really and then look at the Dogs, they make the call and look at them now.. do we really think we are so close to a flag that band aiding works?

Maybe we are trying to follow the Swans process but we are failing dismally..

Yes just like the dogs we are going to win the flag next year

Get on board

Ps I am a seer

 :clapping ILY Chucky. Great call. I reckon I’ve got some nuffy quotes floating around. Last year taught me not to make them anymore. Sure, I might disagree with some players and team selections but ultimately the club made me eat my hat last year. Now I’m just going with the flow. Not sure how my attitude will be after a few successive bottom 4 finishes but I’ll worry about that then  ;D

Still can’t believe Astbury turned into a half decent footballer, had him well and truly written off
