    Assuming we keep English and don?t risk losing compo. Now even Jon Ralph conceded we can afford to re-sign all our guns and go after an elite free agent, who would you have us look at to still bring in top talent even without a F1 at this stage?

    McCluggage?
    Florent?
    Stewart?
    Hayward?
    Zurhaar?
    Jake Kolo?
    Ainsworth?
    Guthrie?
    Others

    I wouldn't mind Florent as a HFF - an area we are still working on.

    McLuggage is THE free agent that I'd want but that'll never happen.

    For mine, McCluggage is the best player on that list but I suspect unattainable. I don't feel we have a player like Zurhaar at the moment. He'd be the one I'd be working on.

    Willem Drew signed on until 28 with Port so he's off the list.

    Are any half forward goal kickers? That is who I would target.

    Will Hayward fits that bill
    Florent is a goal kicking wingman
    Ainsworth might be an interesting target also.
    More of an In Bruges guy?
