Who would you have JMac target this year?

Re: Who would you have JMac target this year?

So GWS have flown into Melbourne to have a meeting with Josh Kelly.

As in the Josh Kelly that plays for GWS.

They probably should have just gotten drunk and called him 30 times, flying interstate to speak to a player that already plays for you just seems clingy. I'm not exactly totally nuanced in the art of negotiation, but that seems like a bad sign?

I'd be pretty unhappy if J-Mac wasn't making Kelly priority number one. What do you give to the club that has everything anyway?

We gave them an injured ex captain for a top draft pick last time. How does Matty Boyd feel about topping up his super?

Josh Kelly would be my number one target. We need an outside mid with some leg speed, good kick, racks up possessions and importantly, young and mates with The Bont .

Yeah, they do have everything except games experience in the 26 year and above area. How about Suckling.

Not a high profile player now but I'd like to the club to have a chat to Melbournes Jack Trengove, He's been playing in the VFL all season and has performed very well.

It won't appeal to many people but he;s still got something to offer.

Interesting one, he fits the 'good citizen' criteria. Would he be happy coming knowing he'd be a depth midfielder? I imagine at his stage he wants AFL football and would probably look at somewhere like Gold Coast or Brisbane who need some grunt.

I don't think we take anyone similar to what we have who can't get a game elsewhere, unless there's special circumstances behind their reasons for not doing so.

As a mid or a potential Matty Boyd replacement?
Injuries have ruined his pace.

Yeah he is really slow from what I've seen. I can't recall him ever being overly quick either. If he is a good user of the footy he would be worth a chat. Sam Mitchell was never a quick player but his smarts and ball use more than cover his lack a leg speed. Jack is certainly no Mitchell but if he could be a role player.

Is Jake Lever signed up yet?

I don't believe so. His coach said they are waiting for the player pay deal to be finalised.

Yep and he should be playing more AFL. His form in the VFL early this year was fantastic and he's had his first full preseason in 3 years. Getting drafted as an 18 year old and being made captain as a 20 year old isn't everyone's cup of tea. It may have been a heavy mental burden and maybe he needs a new start - a bit of Bevo may be the tonic. He was a bull when he arrived on the scene, a Koby Stevens who could think and kick.

I'd be in his ear two weeks ago.

He appears to be moving well. I think there might be a role for him as a half forward who spends some time in the midfield.
He's a good mark for his size.

Mark Blicavs has been dropped by the Cats. I think he is a player we could utilise so he would be worth having a chat to.

Re: Who would you have JMac target this year?

Sounds like Daniel McStay is holding out contract talks until later in season. Probably not in the calibre of Lever or May but given that he's besties with TBoyd it may help create an opening for us.

Year left on his contract but would love us to have a crack at Petracca.
