Good kick but his real lack of any leg speed soon found him out. It was always the Biggest ? mark with him.

Regards Cazzesman

Mmm he can be rookied, always a place for good kicks and good decision makers I would have thought .... Or are we back on the 'need athletes' drive?

Lack of leg speed would find him out sounds pretty straightforward and nothing to do with athletes.

I don't want a good decision maker making good decisions but cant get the ball because he is covered by his defender. As a result he wont be having many shots at goal.

We want to build a team of guns. Big and small.

Offensive speed and defensive speed is so important. Casboult is a liability when the ball hits the ground, let alone the fact he's not fast enough to break away from his opponent on the lead. He relies on the huge mark.

Is McKenzie a better mark than Casboult? I doubt it.

Are our shortages in the midfield, forward and ruck?

Am I correct in thinking that the club will select a DFA in the national draft (plus the preseason draft)?

Chris Dawes has been delisted and is keen to play on. At 28, is he worth picking up as a tall and strong forward/ruck? He is a more accurate kick then Levi and would cost little. People's thoughts?


No point. Where would he play? Whose position would he take over?

He is so old is body is packing up. Can't get on the park.

You don't select delisted free agents in the draft. You can just sign them as of November the 1st. The Pre-season draft is for players who weren't delisted by the club by rather delisted them selves. Like Jason Tutt when we had to get him in the pre-season draft, the bulldogs didn't delist him but rather Tutt said I'm not signing and then had to go in the pre season draft.

IMO he isn't.
Ask yourself if he is better than Graham, Boakhorst , Lamb or Buckley....

Would be in our best 22 easily...

Slow as treacle. But elite kicking skills. And a decent size. Certainly an upgrade on Graham. But that's not saying an enormous amount.

At 24 he's in the right age bracket. Decent size and athlete. Can play a bit. If Choo is right, I wonder what role we have in mind for him? (Because we don't need another 3rd tall defender.)

Interesting if true, given our sudden glut of tall defenders. Although I like the approach of using these types for depth at least.

Adelaide need mid fielders. And Grigg couldn't get a game all year. Shows how the Crows rate him.

Adelaide need midfielders and they didn't rate Gibbs that highly either

Adelaide also let a regular mid in Lyons leave for bugger all...
