Outside mid, who can't handle a tag and is showing this season can't cope with being the main dude in the mid field

Not only that too old

too much emphasis on getting in recycleds for my liking. Give me another young player like Vlastuin thanks infact if we can get 2 out of the draft then thats a great result. As for the free agency types and trade types Id only be looking at some of the quality youngsters at GWS and GCS who arent getting big opportunities.

Agree, how many teams get big name players then go on to be ultra successful?
I guess Sydney did get Morton  :shh

To be a top side need to develop own players. Best to recruit young good players and develop them rather trying to rely on recruiting recycled players.

Sydney topped up with Hall in '02 and Jolly in '05 and won a flag in '05.
West Coast topped up with Chick in '03 and Stenglein in '05 and won a flag in '06.
Geelong topped up with Ottens in '05 and won a flag in '07.
Hawthorn topped up with Guerra in '06 and Dew in '08 and won a flag in '08.
Collingwood topped up with Brown in '09 and Jolly and Ball in '10 and won a flag in '10.
Sydney topped up with Mumford and Kennedy in '10 and won a flag '12.

That's 6 in recent times and to me that would suggest it's actually a smart way to top your side off.  Get Leuenberger and Frawley and plug our 2 biggest remaining deficiencies.

We should top up in 2 years then and we'll win it in 2017.  :thumbsup

Above post has WP Quote

"Tend to agree" (with WP quote)

beneath it says edited by WP.  :whistle

I corrected your poor typing  ;D

You typed "tend to agree with this view"  in between 2 paragraphs so it came up as part of the quote

So before editing it looked like this:

Quote
So thinking about it here's a thought, why don't we look a drafting some more kids this year and develop them. And while we are developing them in our own VFL team in 2014, we'll start playing some more of the kids we've picked over the last couple of years ...you know McBean (a Leuneberger type), McIntosh (a Thomas type), Darrou (a better option than Watts cos he has aggression) etc.....

Tend to agree with this view

Just a thought 


So I corrected it for you hope that's OK  :whistle :whistle
Wasn't my post. Just having a laugh. Thought it was quite funny.  :lol

Yep Smokey a ruck and a KPP and another quality mid.
Don't think Dal Santo is the answer and Thomas will be overpriced and on his way to Carlton but a Daniel Rich type mid if available at about 25 yrs old wanting to come back to Melbourne will be handy.

Serious question how is Dom Tyson going this year? I have barely seen GWS and have no idea how he is travelling there atm.

I love it when smokey pulls out the old records, arms himself with cold hard facts and goes bang bang bang check mate  :bow

I would pay overs for both Leuey and nephew of Spud, would just about round off our team and give us a serious crack in the next few years.

Dom re-signed with GWS earlier this season TB, and I believe hes been out with a long term injury
