Under The Pump in 2013
« on: November 25, 2012, 11:53:28 AM »
So we have finished the 2012 draft and brought in new players, we also got Knights and Chaplin in trades. So who is under the pump in 2013. For me the 2013 national draft and trading periods will be the last draft and trading period we will need to finally finish the renewal of the playing list into one which should be capable of winning a flag. So who is under the pump in 2013? Who needs a big season to survive the cut?

For me and in no particular order the players who need big years include:

David Astbury
Luke McGuane
Shane Tuck (may retire)
Daniel Jackson
Aaron Edwards
Matthew White
Tom Derrickx
Ben Darrou

For the first time in a long time the list seems to be getting smaller and Tuck wouldnt even be on it if he wasnt considering retiring. Next years draft is considered to be a rip snorter. So who do you guys reckon should be on the list? Who needs a big season to survive the Hardwick axe.

IMO Griff is in same boat as Astbury. Need to improve on what they've shown even if it doesn't mean they've cemented their spot. Neither will be delisted but it's a contract year for both so would want to improve if they want more than the 1 year.

Astbury got 3 years from Cameron about two months back. Or maybe it was 2.

Well there you go. Did he get an extra year after his first season? Because if he just signed he had a 3 year deal to start.

A. Edwards shouldn't be under the pump. Not a required player and is purely as a depth top up player.
Realistically he won't be rehired in the senior team this team Even if he's dominating at coburg.
Lets hope we never use him in the senior team because we shouldn't need him.
He the last guy I'd be pinning my Hopes on playing finals footy

You don't get a bloke on your senior list and have him in the reserves all year. Complete waste of money. Edwards will play and possibly in round one too.

Aaron Edwards usually plays a few games a year where he is actually quite good. I would play him in R1 and hope that is one of the games he fires in and kicks 3 or 4 goals.

The RFC for me.

Im wanting to see if they can withstand the pressure and make finals when everyone including themselves thinks they should.

Hardwicks career is on the line IMO by this next year, along with in order
HACKSON, White, Darrour, Mcguane,  Derrick, A Edwards then S Edwards.
