Something like Vickery/Griff to Pies for Witts could be an option for you guys
Hammer's definitely our no.1 ruck though, that's his specialty. Would mean Witts has to have stints forward and he's not so good at that. Not sure he'd want to be back up to Hammer.
Witts > Hampson man

You're looking at a mini rebuild. Hampson is 29 next year and you have a 23yr old ruckman with plenty of ability potentially available... you should be going after him.

Look, I'll be honest and say that I forgot that Hammer is 29 next year and Witts is 23 aha.

Would be the youngest side in the comp by a mile

Everybody seems to be rating Kam McIntosh highly then?

Wouldn't mind Vickery/Griffiths to compliment Jessie White as our spud forward combo. Lol

You serious about that trade though? For Witts?

Well with our oldest player being 28 it would have to be on par with you guys wouldn't it?

Very. Only not playing because he's injured

quinny88 · July 21, 2016, 12:03:24 AM

We definitely need at least a backup ruckman. I think Hampson is playing some really good footy now that he's finally getting his body right. Dominates the hitouts, and is starting to take some of those grabs around the ground that you expect. Will always be an awkward kick but most ruckman are.

In saying that, I do like Witts and would be happy to have him at the tiges

Apart from Prestia must be top on the list so don't know if we can poach one like Witts or get one from one of the state leagues or if there are any standouts in the draft but that would be looking long term

Apprently Devon Smith from GWS is high on our list of targets. I rate him heaps and would love him at the Tiges. It's been said that if we fail to get Dev them we'll go after Dion.

GWS have to lose 600 or 700K from there cap this year so Smith would be good so would Greene they have so many good mids I think Greene would be a beast as a pure mid ?

He can rack it up but who knows where it'll go once it hits his boot

Pretty much ahaha, would prefer Dev over Greene any day.

Either would be good but I thought we had already thrown the money at Prestia ? he would be my choice out of the 3

Another terrible performance on the weekend how can some of our guys have such terrible skills after playing so much AFL ? at least the kids are getting a run I think we can add Conca to the list of players to trade pretty sure he is from the west maybe there might be some interest in him , after watching the footy shows last night I am starting to agree with some opinions that we need more than just a mini rebuild and thinking Dimma might not survive this apart from a very poor list there seems to be so many things wrong in all departments , lets hope there is someone good enough at our club to sort this mess out and put us on a path to be a successful club :'(

Lennon injured again. :(
