Feel free to include your own thoughts

Player/Signed already/Staying or Going?

T.Walker/ Yes / Going

R.Palmer/ No / Going

T.Scully/ No / Staying

C.Ward/ Yes / Going

D.Rich/ No / Staying

B.Goddard/ No / Going

D.Pearce/ No / Going

D.Thomas/ No / Going
-------------------------------------------

Add to that whom i reckon they will get

K.Cornes
M.Clark
R.Stanley
J.Hill
A.Carlile
B.Vince
B.Prismall

This would give them a pretty good starting line-up already if they did manage to get the for mentioned players

B- ?? , Carlile , ??
HB- ?? , Goddard, ??
C- Vince, Ward, Thomas
HF- Hill , Walker, Pearce
F- ??, Clark, Stanley
R- ??, Palmer, Cornes
INTER- Prismall, ?? , ??

From what I've heard they have 5-7 already gone. Scully, Walker, Palmer, Ward are near certainties...

I like it how Prismall is already on the bench.

MTTY

I mean if i were to start up a club now and start recruiting the way i would look for players is;

Recruiting from other clubs
21+ year olds
Great Leadership skills
Multipositional
Atleast 1 30+ year old

VFL/SANFL/WAFL etc. recruitment
Overlooked players that are in the age bracket of 24-27
Consistant performers
Atleast 2 that have had AFL experience

Draft/concessions
Bigger bodied players
Consistant players
High levels of endurance


Ziplock

so, just stocking up with young guns for future years wouldn't be a viable strategy?

:P

Thats what the drafting is for that way you would be able to be competitive in the opening years and not hav ethe younger players trounced in every game.

I think you also need older blokes to teach the younger ones.

Not sure there is enough of that at the Suns, especially in terms of key position players.

Yeah and they didnt really get enough players who could play all around the ground. Only really Brennan, as it could help the younger kids out within the game, as to the area which is struggling by giving them an older/experienced head.

AFEV

Apparently Goddard isn't going. I swear I saw him talking about leaving The Saints and now he says he never wants to leave.

8-6 Suited

He wont go to GWS, it would have to be another established club for him to go.


But Scully is going. He already signed something, not sure what, but he isnt happy about it.

Boomz

Think he is covering his tracks... He'd be stupid to stay at the saints.

MTTY

I don't know i just have that feeling Scully is staying

8-6 Suited

He wants to stay, but having signed something legally he is committed to go.
