Too short

Some here thought Naughton at 194cm was too short. 193cm is OK

Both have grown, Naughton 195 and Adam is 194

Re: Proactive Poaching

If we thought that someone like Tomlinson is unlikely to leave, I'd throw up a few of the folloiwng names to bring in down back and maybe up forward:

Aliir Aliir
Nick Vlastuin
Harris Andrews
Alex Sexton

Sexton recently signed a 4 year deal. I would have loved him in Bulldog colours.

Andrews is too highly rated at Brisbane but I think their 'second strong' talls are gettable, hence my naming of Ballenden earlier.

Re: Proactive Poaching

Some Crows seem to think Alex Keath is gettable.
Would solve our KPD issues for 3-4 years I'd imagine, Vic growing up too and it seems likely we lose Bailey Williams to SA at the end of the year.

Re: Proactive Poaching

I’d be happy to trade Bailey Williams + something for Alex Keath.

Would you swap them straight up? I'd consider it.

Alex Keath is in his late 20’s

Even with Keath's age I'd imagine we'd have to offer a pick too.

Williams has been in and out of our side this year while Keath is playing very well and the market for KPDs is tight. Plus he's likely to play into his 30s as he had a delayed start to his career due to his cricket commitments.

Jenkins is on a roughly $750,000 contract with Adelaide.

Only $550,000 according to this:

Could Josh Jenkins be traded to Melbourne club?

Josh Jenkins would only consider a trade back to a Melbourne club if his SANFL stint dragged into the second half of the season.

The Adelaide star continues to languish in the SANFL despite six goals in his last outing, desperate to be recalled against Melbourne on Saturday night.

Jenkins, 30, is well established in the city with a wife Hannah and daughter Lottie and is hopeful he can see out a $550,000-a-season deal that expires in 2022.

But he could be forced into a trade if coach Don Pyke continues to ignore him at AFL level later into the season.

Will be 31 by the start of next season. No thanks.

Glen Coleman was 29 when he played his first game with us. Jenkins could play a similar role alongside Naughton that Coleman played alongside Chris Grant when Grant first started by taking the best defender. Maybe not the "Go near the kid and you will have me to answer to" role Coleman played but Jenkins could help improve our gamestyle and help us kick bigger scores.

Sam McClure reporting that we are going after Isaac Smith and Jack Martin.

I'm keen on Martin but not sure about Smith.

Smith is a gun, he'd be my choice over Martin. Having said that I think it's a very fine margin all things considered. Ainsworth anyone?

Sorry the only reason why I'm not keen on Smith is his age. He turns 31 next year, but yes he's a gun.
