    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

    Does that need to be taken with a grain of salt considering it was Mark Riccuito (Adelaide Football Director) who led with it?

    For what its worth, 2020 Charlie Dixon is a big yes and I'd offer four years, but to me he seems to perform best in a contract year.

    I was just listening to the Rooch and he seemed to think it had some merit

    Probably not

    We could probably add Peter Wright to that list as well. A bit of a long shot but maybe the Suns might consider trading him

    Hey why don't we offer Dixon four years? He's pretty good!

    The way Essendon are going I’d be back in the ear of Hurley. Age only issue but he’s got one year to run on his contract and still in good form.

    He’s a western suburbs boy too from memory.

    Makes the Dixon scenario interesting.

    They have cap space apparently.
    I wouldn’t touch Crouch with a 10 foot pole but not sure why Port would either, unless Wines is on the way out.

    He's had a terrible year, but for mine he's an upgrade on Roarke and Hayes, and free at the trade table. Not sure if he's a Bevo 'type' as he doesn't have the aggression of a Vandermeer

    I think he is worth a shot. He has played some good goods and as you say he is an upgrade on RS and Hayes.

    I’d imagine Atkins is already signed somewhere. The big question is where?

    Not from me, Has everyone bluffed as he is a terrible 1 v 1 defender and if you need any proof have a look at skinny Sam Sturt from Fremantle out body him a couple of times in round one. if we are looking at a mature KPD (and we should be) the possibility of Rance returning and Balta's development at Richmond means David Astbury might be in need of some love. Not sure he's gettable in terms of dollars and draft picks but we need to ask the question. Failing that lets have a chat to Joel Hamling and remind him that we gave him his start in league football.

    Re: 2020 Player movement

    Nakia Cockatoo could be on the move

    Rory Atkins might have a 3year deal on the table from a Melbourne club

    I don't have a lot of interest in Atkins, Cockatoo would have to be convincing that his battles with injuries can be overcome

    Who cares about Atkins he's a good ordinary player in a good team.
    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.
