Seth Campbell [merged]

[Damo]

Kid has been great from the get go.

The only real reason we keep playing him forward is the quality and lack of class of the other general forwards we play there.Fmd we have to have someone who can kick the odd goal.

Mansell is not a goal kicker MRJ should not be on the list Green thats our small forward stocks no wonder Campbell keeps on being picked to play there.

But that is short sighted imo. We weren't winning many games regardless of where we played Seth. Part of the forward half problem had nothing to do with the forwards but slow unskilled mids kicking it in there.Part of it was a lousy system so why the heck were we not identifying firstly our players best attributes and playing them in the roles that suited. For me with Campbell that was wing.

Ask yourselfs what is it you want from wingers what do they need. Apply it to campbell and i can tell ya all it hits you in the face.
We should not be pidgeon holing the likes of Campbell into roles like small forward but looking at what he is actually best suited to and what will benefit us most not this year or next but when we start climbing.

100% Agree

Every time he is up the ground and there is a hard ball he shirks it

Lets see what 2026 brings

Don’t think Seth is a mid. Might be able to rotate occasionally but he’s best around goals imo. Especially high half forward where he can use his pace.

Not everyone has to be turned into a mid

Lalor Smillie Hotton and Grlj and Cumming are hopefully are midfielders going fwd

If they can live up to potential it’s the best midfield from 2028 onwards

Big if of course but it has everything. Contested beasts, skills, goal kicking, aggression, evasion, agility, X factor

Grlj and Cumming are both behind CDT, Duursma, Sharp and Lindsay in most phantom drafts I’ve seen so doesn’t look like we’d get either if we keep our current picks.

We are likely to have picks 3 and 4 and I highly doubt we take CDT or Lindsay

West coast to take Duursma and sharp I think.
Who knows though, really is intriguing this year

[Hard Roar Tiger]

Wonder if we’d trade pick 3 for 2 x top 10 picks. Might be a game changer

If they are after Young a pick swap would not go astray.  For me Dyson Sharp but we need their pick 1 to make sure of it.

I disagree but even if they are we have an abundance of talls and at some stage we have to back in what we have.
Grlj suits us to a tee and so does Cumming. At pick 6 or 7 Grlj in front of a tall we don't really need. Duursma and Sharp at this point in time simply won't be available to us and while Lindsay would be a good get addressing serious needs i prefer a couple of others.

Just need a pick at around 15 to get a Jacob Farrow or X Taylor theres a pile of hb and wings that would suit us to a tee that are worth taking.
