Re: List Management for 2020/21
We will have to have as many spots open on our playing list to accommodate the JUH points. If that is 4 picks then then that is what we will need to have open. I can see us delisting and then redrafting a player

High chance that the AA 2021 midfield is actually our entire midfield.

Re: List Management for 2020/21
I suspect Rhylee West might not be as excited to have Adam Treloar as a team mate next season.
There will be a squeeze on midfield minutes anyway but I think this puts him further out of calculations

I can’t see any less than 5 looking at the math. But there’s MacPherson &/or Raak if we want them. So it could be two live picks. One say Will Hayes and one kid. It’s not a bad position, and also pruning the list isn’t the worst thing either. Depending on the full extent of the draft rule changes, we could leave a spot open for after the draft and elevate a rookie should one deserve it and take no kids outside the ones we’ve been keeping very close tabs on.

I'm not sure he's quite ready to play midfield yet. He'll be fine. We don't know what happens to Dunks in two years and Libba has two years left at most you'd think. He'll certainly get his chance to impress.
But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

Lipinski is the one who will be squeezed out, which is a shame, but needs must

There is always room in a team of 22 for good players.
If West is prepared to:
- Be aggressive in his efforts to win the ball
- Run when others choose to rest, walk or jog.
- Tackle when others concede
Then he will be fine.
Every year we look at the premiership team and think '5 or 6 of those blokes would struggle to get a game in our magoos'...yet there they stand with Premiership medals. Hell, Nathan Broad is actually not that good and he has 3 of them (medals) around his neck. He does things others wont and doesn't care where the credit goes.
From what I am led to believe, if given a solid block of games West will figure this out and play a lot of footy.
What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

What are your thoughts on our trade period?
Can you see the midfield group working with Treloar now in it?
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

Thankfully, 1 of the 3 medals is around his girlfriend's neck

I think “girlfriend” is a pretty loose term there.

So do we have enough points now to match a Jamarra bid at say pick 2?

Yep. With 300 points left over for MacPherson & Raak if we want them.
