Get Kerr
Do the trade find a way to make this happen - the guys 24, kicks goals CAN lay a tackle and would be top 3 mids in the comp.
We need to be fair dinkum about where we are at and with this group we are in nowhere land.
Its gonna be a tough year for picks, sides wont give them up so if we can trade something of value to Eagles for Kerr and keep our highest pick that would be ideal.
This now will also need to be accompanied by a coaching panel/football dept overhaul. 3 key areas are deplorable and have been for us ALL year:
1 Fwd line - long bombs, hasnt functioned
2. Fwd build up - slow,treacle only to then somehow splutter to life? (its like a light bulb goes on...)
3 Midfield - getting smashed at crucial times out of the middle.
Players like Goddard/Dal Santo are required fwd of the football - NOT mopping uo down back so we need to find some defenders.
Key players gone backwards this year:
Kosi - cant blame injuries anymore
Dal Santo - lacks heart
Gilbert - some dreadful errors at crucial times.....does he belive hes already "made it"?
Sneider - not enough from him this year
Raph - again
Fiora - not up to it again
X - injury prone
and so it goes....its stuff deep down we all know and dont like saying with the lights off....

“Yeah….nah””
I disagree on this. Before tonight I would have agreed but lets face it we are not going to win a flag in the next 3-5 years so we need to build from the ground up. Time to trade for young picks and hope to get the right players. Having said all that Kerr is a great player but will come as cheap as Didak so maybe he is a better option.

Your not gonna trade everyone and get a team of kids in an environment where clubs will be loath to lose early picks with a new club coming into the league.plugger66 wrote:I disagree on this.

Some very shrewd recruiting is needed and we need to complement this with talent that is young enough to step in - Kerr fits that bill.

if he can't get the best out of the list he has available what makes you think he can get the best out of other players?Teflon wrote:Your not gonna trade everyone and get a team of kids in an environment where clubs will be loath to lose early picks with a new club coming into the league.plugger66 wrote:I disagree on this.

Your an imbecile.
changing the players won't help the team if ross still fails to get the best out of players.
call folks names but the past 2 years off Ross has been crippling.
Ross has been carried by the talent. His jobs for the mates program with barker has been a joke as well.

No I dont answer YOUR question cause you only have 1 answer for everything - SACK THE COACH.Dan Warna wrote:you don't answer the question because you know ROss isn't getting the best out of the players.Teflon wrote:Once again simple man Dan...its ALL coach isnt it Dan....I mean Dal Santo 1 posession to half time is ALL coach.Dan Warna wrote:if he can't get the best out of the list he has available what makes you think he can get the best out of other players?Teflon wrote:Your not gonna trade everyone and get a team of kids in an environment where clubs will be loath to lose early picks with a new club coming into the league.plugger66 wrote:I disagree on this.

Sorry to break it you nuffy but while the coaching dept needs review we have WEAK and INEPT front runners running out and pretending to be superstars.
In a game where a club/AFL legend says his time is over that is NOT acceptable - the PLAYER intensity shown in qtr 1 and 2 was an indictment on our colors.
But you happily dismiss that as all "Coaches fault"
Your simplistic.

Who's to say that he isn't? Our list falls way a fair bit after your top 10 players. We don't look so good without Gtrain, Hamill, Voss, Goose, Black, Aussie, young Harvey... do we?Dan Warna wrote: if he can't get the best out of the list he has available what makes you think he can get the best out of other players?
Joey, Gilbo, CJ, Gwilt, Eddy, Firoa, all GOP's.
The lid is off after Round 2! Enjoy the journey, coz you just don't know where we'll end up. Live for today and seize the moment.
