      Did Brad Dick walk out? edit - yes he did.

      Then there is Austin, John Mccarthy, Adam Maric, Dawson, Lovett, Mitch Farmer, Medhurst, Nathan Ablett... scraping the bottomm of the barrel.

      or a kid, Frosts name keeps getting thrown around..

        Re: PSD - who do we want?

        I'd like to see us go for another young key defender, either Boseley or Sam Frost, and a mature ruckman as back up. Dalrymple seems to have a reasonable eye for mature back ups playing state league footy, hopefully he has one in mind. Other than those two I'd like to see us look for speed and good kicking skills and hope they develop into another couple of Luke Dahlhaus'

              Austin is linked to us so it could be him. I'd rather Frost.

                Only players who have been delisted are in the PSD - others like Frost will be in the rookie draft?

                  You're probably right I just thought you could draft anyone.

                    You can draft anyone who has nominated for the ND or just the PSD. So ex-AFL players, overlooked draftees or someone from the middle of nowhere are all options.

                    Melbourne prove this having drafted guys like Joel McDonald (ex Lion), Jamie Bennell and Liam Jurrah through the PSD in past years.
                    I should leave it alone but you're not right

                      Not true, we can pick anyone who nominates.

                        1 year contract for mature aged ruckman for injury cover?

                        Would hope one of Roughy or Cordy would be established enough to play no 2 to Minson in 2013.

                          You would think that if we felt we needed a depth ruck we would have taken one in the draft.

                          Surely the options now are:

                          A mature age player who fills the gap Schofield leaving leaves (a half-back type with a bit of pace)

                          or

                          The next best young prospect we see available.

                          The only positive of it being Schofield is that due to his position being easily covered we aren't limited in who we pick like we would have been had it been say Roughead.
                          I should leave it alone but you're not right

                            Will there be a Willy experiment this year?

                            Rookie or PSD and who might it be?
