List Management 2015

[Sedat]

If Kruezer can stay on the park this year, I think we should have a crack at him. If Minson was traded his salary would be around $450,000 or more. If we threw 3 years and $450,000 at Kruezer, that compo could almost net them top tier compo at this point pick 2 assuming they finish last. That's an easy decision for Carlton and they might even want Minson?

So we'd have a first ruck, Roughy (def) and Kruezer (fwd) to second or third ruck.

Leaving obtaining a KPD for the trade table, and perhaps some outside run.

How many ruckmen do you think we need BT? We already have Cordy, Minson, Campbell, Roughy, Redpath, T Boyd, M Boyd, Jong, Goodes, Stevens and Bont

Not enough. Maybe we need a 'Honeychurch for Ruck' thread.

Or a Spindle Shanks one

Jake Carlisle's manager stating there is plenty of interest and 'Essendon knows where we sit'.

HE'S GAWN.

Lachie Henderson
Matthew Cruizer
Jake Carsile

I was speaking with my brother his a Collingwood supporter but anyway he was saying that we should look at these 3 possibly. Cruizer obviously as some have said has the injury concerns, Carsile may stretch the salary cap but Lachie Henderson could be one that has value still and is someone who can play all over the ground.

Sorry SlimPickens wrong spelling Matthew Kreuzer from Carlton. I for some reason always picture the surname starting with C.

Was firmly on the Get Carlisle wagon, but after watching our defensive group do a decent job of curtailing some good key forwards over the past 2 weeks (with Talia to be inserted), I'm leaning towards keeping our first pick and drafting the best available midfielder.

We just don't have enough cream in the midfield with the exception of Bonti & Macrae, and it hurt us last night with a lack of spread from congestion. One more skilled runner would make a world of difference.

Thoughts?

We have many needs but I tend to agree that it's a midfielder that should be our priority.
The one thing we tend to lack across most of the list is genuine athleticism and while I don't think that's been a huge priority at the draft table I think it needs to be. We also have enough players sub 183cm so it probably needs to be a midfielder at least 185cm tall.

It's going to be difficult to cut a lot of players from the list so we might only be working with 4 or 5 selections.

[azabob]

Agree Comrade. In the last 2 drafts i have been wanting a quick, agile, elite quick outside midfielder and I still firmly believe we need that type of player.
