2016 Cash Converters - Recycling Pre-Loved Players

Re: 2016 Cash Converters - Recycling Pre-Loved Players

Xav Richards is the best fit for us I reckon.

I think the others have hit their talent ceiling, so we know what we would be getting. At least in XR you'd think he has some to develop at both ends as a swingman or focusing him into one role. I think he'd be worth a punt at the expense of Prudden, and if Prudden needs to be kept at all (no for me), he'll still be there at pick 36 in the rookie draft and upgradable if form warrants.

Strange with Richards - it was reported only yesterday that he was likely to re-sign with the Swans.

So there are a few confirmed delisted free agents and some others out of contract that could find themselves delisted in the next few days that we could possibly look at for KPD depth. Off the top of my head:

Xavier Richards
Alex Silvagni
Joel Tippett
Mitch Brown (not confirmed)
Cam O'Shea (not confirmed)

Any others?

Jack Grimes

No way he is key position.

No way he is key position.

Half his problem is the fact that they try and force him to play in key positions.

Re: 2016 Cash Converters - Recycling Pre-Loved Players

Another KPD delisted in Spangher, although I doubt he would attract any interest, far too injury prone. Jack Fitzpatrick a possibility for ruck depth? Litherland as a slightly undersized KPD?

The Hawks have delisted Matt Spangher, Jack Fitzpatrick, Angus Litherland and Zac Webster off their main list.

Lachlan Langford, Shem Tatupu, Alex Woodward and Jermaine Miller-Lewis also make way off the rookie list.

I doubt we would have any interest even with Bevo knowing them.

Fitzpatrick as a rookie would give us some ruck depth at a minimum. He's about the level of a decent state league ruckman.

Probably a decent rookie option. Pardon the pun but he is a Jack of all trades type.

Prudden has just been delisted so we're probably going to dip or toes in the DFA pool.

Perhaps. I'd hope so.

Who are your eyes on GVGJr?

I'd be keen on having a talk to a few players, Richards would certainly be worth having a chat to. I think there will be a few more announcements by other clubs today so lets wait a bit longer.

Re: 2016 Cash Converters - Recycling Pre-Loved Players

Let's get Jack Fitzpatrick. My long term bias aside he'd be good ruck cover for us.

Re: 2016 Cash Converters - Recycling Pre-Loved Players

Spangher would be the ideal "in case of emergency break glass" rookie - he can play down back and is very adept at zone defence. He can also pinch hit up forward. I've seen nothing from X Richards or Litherland to be convinced at all on either of them at senior AFL level, but Spang is clearly good enough at the level.

Fitzpatrick is not much chop at all to be honest - he's just not up to AFL level IMO. I'd look elsewhere for a back-up ruckman.

There are 3 certainties in life: Death, taxes and Sedat spruiking for Spangher
