Would like to move up a few spots in the Draft to get our hands on a HF/ mid to replace Martin, with Bailey Humphrey captain of Gippsland Power.

keogh is right, cameron has gone past grundy, which is why they want to get rid of him. a better, much cheaper ruck

I heard he's a funny old fellow.

Doesn't say much though

After SOS gave Phillips his marching orders, he approached Cameron, who he then lowballed. Cameron picked the Pies even though he’d be stuck behind Grundy… SOS then pivoted to Pittonet

I heard he's a funny old fellow.

Does Russell form part of the list? Seriously, we need to delist him. Our injuries have been overwhelming

He's already been reviewed within the past 12 months - but yes, in an ever changing scientific environment, Brad Lloyd needs to make sure we're doing all we can in this area. It might be time for a fresh voice for coach and players.

Add a tackling coach to the soft cap list. Not only do our players need to learn how to effectively tackle, they need to know what to do when tackled. It'd be interesting to see a stat of how many times our players are penalised for HTB (when trying to dispose of the ball post-tackle), when they might have opted to roll the dice (as some other clubs seem to do better) and garner a "no prior opportunity" ball up. It seems minor, but it's the small things that matter when you should be playing finals.

Rumors/Media reports that we are after Fischer McAsey from Crows. I was told we were after him last year

He was Pick 6 in 2019 draft and only 21. Stands around 198cm and was a KPD as a junior and has played some Key Forward this year. Hasn't exactly set the world on fire but still young and talk was he wants to get back to Vic. I wouldn't expect he would cost much

That would give us McKay TDK Curnow Weitering Young McDonald S.Durdin McAsey as genuine KPP's which we need. Then I hope we add a mature ruckman.

I'd be going hard at Goldstein. I don't mean throwing stupid money at him but selling him the dream. Being a one club is nice but potentially being part of a premiership is far better.
Still has 2 good years left in him. Pitto sometimes looks good, sometimes looks horrible. TDK and Mirkov not ready yet.

I won a couple flags with Fischer's dad, and went to Uni with him. Another TCer is very close to the family.

I mentioned to our fellow TCer and Fischer's father last year, that Fischer was on Carlton's radar, despite signing a 2 year extension wityh the Crows. At the time, Fischer was happy at the Crows and there was doubt he would be looking at Carlton.

Covid lockdowns alienated Fischer from his Melbourne based family during a time his father was recovering from a serious health issue. His dad is all mended now.

I'm glad Austin took a better option in Young.

2 weeks ago when Blues played Crows in Adelaide, Austin was also in Adelaide, with the team, but on a mission? Fischer at the time was visiting his folks in Melbourne, so he wasnt meeting Fischer or his Melb based manager....mmmmm

I was a huge fan of Fischer in the TAC, and his first year at Crows proved he was a worthy No 6, but his form has completely dropped off in the last 2 years. Something not right. He's been playing KPF in the ressies for a change of scenery, and has not done very well there either.

I think Durdin is ahead of Fischer as a KPD back up, and hope we retain him, and Oscar (if he recovers well from surgery), and both as Rookies, but Fischer would be worth a development role for a 3rd rounder imo. He's miles better than Akuei.

Good info

If we get him for a 3rd rounder we do it. He has talent. A change of scenery and a settled home environment can make a massive difference. Still only 21.
