EXV: 2013 / 2014 Offseason Central

[Holz]

Yeah nat pick 16 for Hurn seems fair enough I spose. I thought Acres was taken a little later..

Hurns an ageing dud, Acres is a young gun with Fyfe potential

Id say a win by Ridley ;)

Unless dreamteam is cancelled from 2015 onwards and we cbf working out DT scores so EXVs changes to SC

then pretty good pickup is Hurn.

disagree 76 average in 2012. If he can replicate that than he is a good pick up.

young backs are rare.

Hurn is 26 and coming into his prime :P Besides, everyone is aging unless you're Benjamin Button :o

[Adamant]

One more for us.

Roulettes trade - S. Hurn
Trolls trades - B. Acres

Adamant to confirm

Confirmed.

Hurn is still pretty young and should be good for a 70-80 average.

[Nige]

Hurn is 26, but looks 52.  :P

[Ziplock]

ftr guys, on matt crouch (since we had a little argument about him in the draft thread)

' he ran a 3.25 second 20m sprint, ranking in the bottom 7%.'

which is realllllly slow.

anyways :P

Same with Jordan Lewis. :P

And Nathan Lyon. If you saw him and didn't know who he was no way you'd think he was 26. I think he's the second youngest in the team but he looks like the oldest.

Scrads trades: Patrick Ryder
JB/Memph trades: Luke Parker

This trade has been slightly amended.

JB/memph to confirm.

That addresses our clear weakness heading into next season with Smith likely to miss round 1 and Campbell losing his ruck status.

Bit disappointed Ryder lost his fwd/ruc but still he's should average 80+ and hopefully can get back to the 90 avg of two seasons ago.

You can't stop talking about him can you :-\ Crouch will be a gun. I'm willing to bet you anything he will average 100+ at some point in his career.

Besides, we have established that pace and acceleration are not overly relevant when it comes to inside mids ::)

Any stats on Sam Mitchell's speed Zip?

Testing in the bottom 50%, like I'd heard, mightn't have had much of an impact on his inside game, but bottom 7% is pretty huge.

I'm sure he'll be a good player- I'm not sure if he'll ever be as much of a machine as his scores indicated though.

Keep in mind, that he wasn't in the bottom 7% of like midfielders, or players his size, he was bottom 7% including larger players, like ruckmen/ kpp, which typically have slower acceleration.

Firstly, nup.

Secondly, Mitchell's a far better ball user than crouch :P
