Ryan Ferguson??

Post: # 476987Post gosaints »

Apparently has been delisted by Melbourne. Is he someone we could look at as a back up KPB??

195cm and 93kg, can take a mark and has shown courage, but is a little light on for skills and pace.

I thought he showed he could play in the few times I saw him but must admit I was very surprised to see that he is already 26.

Would be handy depth in the event that Max gets hurt.

Would take up a position that would otherwise be filled by an 18 year old.

A lot depends on how our national draft goes.

Turns 27 next year.

He's not the skinny gangly kid anymore. Not interested.

Rather we took a punt on MJ, Bradley or even Bode, Perrie, Torney or Pffeifer than this geeza.

We're not short on running defenders who can play tall, either.

He is alot older than I thought.

Very surprised that he has been delisted.

If he was under 25 I would say yes but hes not so its a no from me.

Josh Thurgood has been delisted by Hawthorn.

Was treated horribly in 2005, being played on gorilla forwards when he weighed as much as a paper clip.

I thought he showed signs of a good fullback in the making, if he could only put on some muscle.

He didnt and obviously cannot so I doubt we would be interested at all.

Never suggested we would be :wink:

Just thought it didnt really deserve a thread of its own, and Ferguson was a KP defender prospect as Thurgood was so id just chuck it in here :)

I think if given a chance he could become a reliable depth player, however I would not want that face of his anywhere near the club, it could scare off potential sponsors...

Was only drafted in 2002, so i had no idea he was 26. He is the type of player we need as a back up for a key defensive position, a position we really lack any depth. But at that age and very minimal, if any, improvement to come, i would rather pick up a kid in the draft who has the possibility of becoming a 1st team player. We keep suggesting players who have been delisted as possible pick-ups, but we dont need rejects. Our core group of players is young enough to develop a quality group of young players from the next few drafts.

Ferguson - sh1t player.
Thurgood - has the body of a 10 year old. Why would anyone bother.

Nah. Would rather take a younger guy than Ferguson. Not much development left at 26.
