Free Agency - who will we pickup

 

Lol at blitz for suggesting guys like Sylvia last year and turning their nose up at Rosa now.

Exactly.Rave on about Sylvia is barely AFL standard and turn your nose up at Rosa who is a decent  AFL player. 

 

You two realise blitz isn't a single person, right? I'm guessing most of the people turning their nose up at Rosa also thought that Sylvia was a bad idea.

To be fair Sylvia has been over-rated in other footy forums and by parts of the media. It's not just BB ! I have no interest in Rosa as I don't see a role in Essendon's team. Ask me who is the better player - It's unreservedly Rosa.

Classic blitz always correcting blitz

Not free agents but shiel and buntine named emergencies for gws. We must be scrutinising the gws list with an eye to snaring kids who are unsettled.

Shiel would be an excellent get. Get it done WD.

We would be seriously negligent if we weren't looking. There are some very good players to be shaken from that tree.

Bang on - although in terms of picks - our first pick probably somewhere in low 20s might impede us. Although that is why we need to start tapping them up now, need to be the club of their choice.

We'll have the Hird Camp and the Thompson Camp.

Our first pick is currently 18. It's not likely to drop far because they specifically said it will be before any other end of first round compensation picks

Get Petrie give the poor bloke a chance of a flag.

Why would we be dumb enough to do that?

That is positive. Although if mundy, Gibbs or frawley leaves I suspect we are picking in the low 20s because those compo picks will follow those club's first pick.

Shiel is only there because he's coming back from a quad strain, and do we really need yet another half back flanker (Buntine)?

Both of whom are still contracted anyway, which means any deal would come on GWS's terms.

To be fair Sylvia averaged over 20 disposals & more than a goal a game for a few consecutive years in a shyte side.  He also had back to back years of 10 brownlow votes.  Thats a handy return.  No issue with the belief that he probably didn't get the best out of himself & should have been better but it would be wrong to suggest he wasn't a pretty good player at his best.  How many blokes on our list ever kicked 5 in a game or had 37 touches?  Right now its hard to rate Sylvia at all & Rosa in in career best form but last year there was every reason to believe Sylvia had had the better career to date.
