Re: Latest trade update.
I wonder that the fact we got Butler for like pick 3,212 last year that the Tiges might be a bit more hesitant about giving up Higgins too cheaply. Im tipping there are a few red faces about Butler, down at Punt rd.

Re: Dopers interested in Hind
Would like to keep him. His pace is an asset and with games back at Marvel next year, pace is going to be our biggest weapon. If the offer is to good to pass up, for him or the club, then best wishes to him.

Re: This is how the Crouch deal will go down.......
I can live with a slide from 15 to 23 for Crouch.... better not to overpay him. The draft is pretty even from what I can gather....and with little exposed form it may not be that big a difference anyway. Yep I'd take it. Can still get a very good player for pick 23. Pick 23 since 2008 D Zaharakis C...

Re: Michael Hurley
We need another 200cm defender. Lynch and Hawkins are the benchmark of forwards. Howard struggled against Lynch. Hurley is too old and too small to compete with them. Unless we get offered way overs, I'd be hanging onto Carlise and start getting games into OC next year. There will be better options ...

Re: Jack Higgins
Is the best argument for JH that he is thought to possibly be "better" than Jack Lonie based on playing at the feet of Reiwoldt and Lynch, next to Dusty, in a triple premiership side. And L. Neale and Zorco are under 180cm so all players under 180 could be stars. We can bring more compell...

Re: Bytel locked away
What I liked most was his ability to keep on his feet. Took on a couple of tackles but wouldn't go down. For an inside midfielder it's imperative they can take on the tackle and get the ball out. He's going to be a ripper. Should play minimum 10 games next year.

Re: Jimmy Webster & Dylan Roberton
I'd definitely be keeping Webster and Sinclair unless an offer too good to refuse comes along. Webster can take Clarks spot so he can go into the midfield and Sincs is one of our better users of the ball.

Re: Ratts backs Marshall
I actually think we match up well.with the Tigs. I'd back Wilkie over Jack. And Dougal over Lynch. Reckon we can keep them under 4 goals ( hopefully). Martin will go forward but if we can cut off the supply then becomes a non factor. We must keep their backline accountable. They zone off their oppon...

Probably needed at few games in the twos to get his confidence back and he'd probably finished the year better. Reckon he'll be ok next year. Good luck to him. I enjoyed his time ...

And an upgrade at each position.
This is a clear indication that we traded into making finals.
(Including Ratts for The Cho).

No. Same reasons no to Higgins. We do not want to fall into the North/Dopers trap of thinking we're better than we are. While it's been a fantastic season its also been a shortened season. Who's to say if we played a normal 22 games we would have finished strong or even made finals? We may have or w...

Re: A thing of real beauty...(Hunter Clark)
Kid must have amazing core strength. For someone his age to be able to hold up in some of those tackles is rare. A few more pre seasons under his belt, get his physique battle hardened, and Clark will start beating up on some midfields. It will be glorious to behold.

He's in our best 22. Excellent user of the ball and has smarts. He's defintley added some grunt to his game this year. I reckon they're would be many takers if we were foolish enough to trade him.
