I'm actually in favor of Levi.

Great hands, physical and coming into his prime.

Set shots still an issue I know, but we're not going to get a perfect CHF in free agency so we need to compromise.

Smash packs, take a mark, hand off to one of the small forwards or drop the mark, the small forwards crumb and goal.
And you may not think I care for you
When you know down inside that I really do

Probably realistic figures, would need to pay him more than his worth to get him to come over

Would anyone get in the ear of Liam Jones? Not saying I would but after being a dud for years he's suddenly the talk of the town and out of contract

Did we have a go at Petrie? Would have been a good option??

No and no

Only club that was interested was the one coached by his former teammate  mate, think that sums it up

Fair enough, Casboult looked ok today, any chance?

Do not want Casboult. His kicking style is still poo and offers nothing as a back-up Ruck.

I'd take Casboult in a heartbeat. Better than any forward we have outside of Jack.

Is take him as well

Imagine him either clunking them or bringing it to ground with our little blokes at the foot of the pack.

Makes sense

^^ Agreed. I'd take Casboult over Reid. We're desperately lacking a 2nd tall forward - he strikes me as a great fit and would come for cheap.

Casboult has kicked 20 goals this year . 20.10 to be exact.

His best was 24 goals in 2015 - so he's on track to beat that this year.

Compares well to Benny "my best is 14 goals in a season " Griffiths.

Benny has been around a couple years longer too .

So would you take Tippet or Reid over Levi?
