Here's the "top 8" going by this article;

Quote:
FREE AGENTS STILL AVAILABLE

Sam Jacobs - Adelaide Crows (restricted)

Jack Newnes - St Kilda (restricted)

Ben Reid - Collingwood

Sam Murray - Collingwood

Paul Puopolo - Hawthorn

Nathan Brown - St Kilda

Daniel Menzel - Sydney Swans

Chris Masten - West Coast Eagles

https://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/afl-trade-period-2019-free-agency-deadline-list-of-free-agents-still-available-daniel-menzel-jack-newnes-chris-masten/news-story/8e1572a215de22ab220f22602b5f70e7


Jacobs is expected to be traded to GWS so they dont dilute their compo pick. Reid is expected to sign a 1 year deal.

Masten is 30, Brown is 30 and lol imagine that, Menzel didnt come on at the Swans, Puopolo is 31 and would upset the anti-Blair brigade Laughing, and who knows whats going on with Murray?

Jack Newnes is interesting though.

Age 26, Height 186cm, Position.... is he a winger? Or a defensive mid? I dunno?

https://afltables.com/afl/stats/players/J/Jack_Newnes.html

His numbers aren't bad. Played 20 games in '19. Gets a little bit of the ball, seems to love a tackle and kicks the odd goal. Its an interesting thought depending on his wage.

Maybe not for us, but you'd think he's a fit a plenty of other sides? The Saints looking to find an extra pick too.

Well we can always bring back Brown and Dale. Laughing

After all the ten year reunion is coming up.

He's available if there's interest but comfortable retiring if there's not.

Maybe the Suns looking for an older head?

Can he play the Greenwood role? Shocked

What about ex-magpie (mainly reserves) player Michael Hartley from Essenscum?

Why? Did you particularly want us to delist him again?

😀 yeah good one!

Maybe it’s just my opinion but I think he’d be a better lower list occupant than one or two others. He has the talent but needs apply it under a good coach system to bring it to the fore. I wouldn’t write him off yet.

^ He's 26 and a half. When Essendon recruited him to fill the hole created by mass suspensions, he played 37 games over two years. In the two years since, when they've had a couple of passable defenders on their list, he's played a total of 7.

We had him in our system for two seasons, had a good close look and stamped his papers. Essendon picked him up because they were desperate. They're not so desperate now and he is again apparently surplus to AFL requirements.

Do we go for Newnes now? or would that be clutching at straws?

List cloggers, all of the above mentioned.
Time to get ruthless and cut players who can't or haven't improved.

Lynch has been there 3 years - not much improvement. Cameron is in now so goodbye.
Crocker - enough said. He tries hard but doesn't seem up to it.
Dunn - old now and 2 knee reconstructions - keep him on as development or morale coach.
The 2 Irish lads - not from what I saw this year - stick to home grown talent - why do we constantly look outside Australia?
Appleby - tried a number of times but always found wanting.
Magden - a fill in at best and a plodder
Broomhead - been 6 years now - time's up.
Reid - an accident waiting to happen.
Greenwood - Unfortunately with the knee - that could be it.

Some will disagree with these but like I said earlier, time to get ruthless and become hated again.

Worth keeping Magden and The Irish boy Keane
