IMO we need another quality big bodied inside/outside mid more than we need another KPF.

We lost the game in the midfield last night.

We need the mid more urgently but we still need a decent KPF a well.....if not a million dollar one...the kids in the twos are looking very promising at this early stage but we can't just assume they'll make it or even what KP role they'll play or when they'll be ready .....we at least need someone preferably about halfway in between their ages and Jack's....someone who can A- be a genuine second target, B- replace Jack when he's injured and eventually when he retires, C- help us buy time for the kids to develop & D-  give Naknervis a chop out (not essential but highly preferable).... :shh

We've got that mid in Prestia.  He just never plays at

Ollie Wines is only 23.  :shh

And we need to steal a good player from them since all they’ve only given us is duds including the biggest dud of all time.

The club that keeps giving.

I dont see how we'd possibly snare De Goey or C Curnow.

The pies would make us pay with first rounders and a player like Vlastuin at the very least.

As for the scum, with their track record of late they'd demand Martin, Rioli and Caddy and call it unders.

If Lynch wants to come to us, I think GC would be pretty happy with the compo. Otherwise, I dont think we could get that deal.done either.

If De Goey wants to leave and Collingwood chuck everything at Lynch...... :shh

Again if Curnow wants out what are they going to do? Make him go to the draft and lose him for nothing?

Both players are out of contract.  :shh


This is were list mangers earn their keep and we now have one of the best in the business.... :shh

We do need one. I would be tempted to play Balta for a large block of games as a forward/ruck. Can take a good mark and give us something in the ruck around the ground when Nank is resting. Ruck and Grigg is yesterday's tactic.

Agree, wamt to see Balta. Give me Balts over Moore every day

But Lynch IMV covers an immediate need consodering  Jack's about to turn 30

Can I ask why you hate Moore? Is it personal or you really just don't rate him?

WP never said he hated Moore nor is it personal if you don’t think he is up to senior AFL footy.

Moore would be a decent 3rd tall, unfortunately we usually play without a second tall

I dont hate any player.

So therefore I don't hate him.

I simply don't rate him on what I've seen so far be it AFL or VFL. I don't think he will make it.

Sadly  (and it wasn't his fault I'd like to stress) he was a massive liability on Friday night. He was non competitive for nearly the entire game. Granted There were a number like that but in the role he had we cannot afford it.
