Thoughts on Matt Kennedy.?

I don't even know if he is a fa but he is a lot better than Graham.

Wouldn't hurt for a few years

He's not FA, he's contracted for 2025.

Would need to be traded.

We don't have a lot of positions on our list as we are two spots over due to long term injuries.

Picking up recycled players will only reduce spots for draft picks.

Just hit the draft this year.

He’s another slow midfielder, you’d be replacing graham for a similar type.

No recycled mids are required. We’re gonna draft 2-3 in this coming draft who will be supported by the likes of Taranto, hopper and Prestia.

We already have a midfielder with AFL experience that's arguably of similar quality to Kennedy in the perfect age bracket on our VFL list in Garner that we could easily rookie and who would cost us nothing... :shh

Hard no on Kennedy. Hard hard no.

Is a lost clogger, may help us win 1-2 games then otherwise wouldn't and cost us draft order. Will take game time and centre bounces away from a McAullife or Sonsie.

Hard no.

There’s no way he’d come here even if we would want him. Save it until 2027. :shh

Nope, I mean save expectations on ANYONE coming to us until 2027. We are an on field rabble at the moment and need to win games of football
