I reckon the one must-have player we don't have is a quality small defender with pace and guts, the sort of bloke you'd put on Eddie Betts and then forget about for the rest of the day 'coz you know that no-one ever kicks more than two on him.
Generally speaking, it's not the talls that kill us, it's the quick little blokes who cut us to ribbons. |
Sinclair fits that bill but you'd have to think he won't play again |
Apparently got a contract extension so I'd say otherwise. Would be great news if his hammy was sorted, people don't appreciate how much of a boon his return would be for our backline.
Watching Ramsey and Smith try to fill the role this year was just painful |
Sinclair's contract hasn't been extended. Has been told he isn't part of 2018 plans. Watch this space.

Hoskin Elliot. 22 games. 18 goals. Future second rounder
I'm just not sure that accessing a players ability is that simplistic.
It's easily Smiths worst year since he has been at GWS.
Had injuries and seem likely to come home.
We apply very little defensive pressure inside our own forward fifty and he is regarded as elite in that area ( according to C D, not me )
Average fantasy scores of around mid eighties over last three years ( 14 - 16 ) and very unlikely that would be all tackles.
I'm looking at who is being discussed as trading places in the media, not who isn't.
If you're going to trade out Fasolo and finish up Blair, then I would think that you would want a mature replacement.
Maybe not, that's fine but I would. |
GWS shall ask for a first round draft pick for him minimum wise. Do we really want to be involved with that discussion?? A 174cm small forward? And before you ask for GWS to trade back there late first round pick as a sweetener.... they don't have one courtesy of their Whitfield penalty!

He is the most gettable. No love from the Cats for him and simply kicks goals! |

News today is that Stringer may have walked out on the dogs.
As the dogs are already sniffing around Cox as they don't have a big ruckman, this may be a perfect opportunity to get someone with genuine x-factor.
Yes, he will have to pull his head in, but what a difference he would make.
C'mon Pies, hop to it and make it happen.

Yeah, Menzel is a risk after so many knee operations. But he's had a good year. Not a priority for me.

Not for Cox, would they take Mayne and Oxley?

Think Oxley is a better player than given credit for on Nick's

I like Oxley, but he has a cohort of HBF ahead of him
