Re: Reset Rants - Blue Moon - 05-07-2018
We need to keep getting in young top end talent like B. Silvagni seems to be but I also believe we should be getting a priority pick this year which could be used for trading in a good player like Dylan Shiels. The problem we have at the moment is that we don't have a base of players that allow the bringing in of young players in a supported and positive winning culture. The current under 25 side must be the base from which we can build decades of success. To keep building we really need to be bringing in good ready made players and not the "O'Sheas or Muttons" who are just honest triers.

I firmly think Shiels would be a redundant pick, we've got kids who are going to be first class mids, we need a KPF to bridge the gap KPF between now and 2021!
Have a look at this week in Casboult's absence, we'll be leaving kids at the mercy of CheatsFC stalwarts like Hooker, Hurley and Goddard. We really need someone to patrol F50 and tell the young talls where to go, metaphorically speaking, we don't want any of them to leave! :o

In season 2019 just who are we paying to come within cooee of the salary cap? Our only close to high price players could be Cripps, Docherty, Kreuzer and maybe an improving Curnow.
I'm all for the rebuild/reset, but we need to get just one or two experienced AND quality players to set the example and show the young upcoming cohort how to kick butt and take names.

Where did I say he'd even get a game in 2019?
:o ??? ::
In 4-5 years time though, God willing, 50+
You always seem to think that recruits should get games straight away and perform at a high level, so I was just wondering what sort of expectations Ben would be subjected to ?

I have said this before, he has only kicked a few bags against us and I wouldn't touch him with a 40ft pole. Not saying I wouldn't pay overs for a big fish, just saying he isn't the one IMO.

Rumour has it Richmond have thrown 1.4 million at lynch per season. Is doing alright for someone you're not interested in.
I actually agree with you though. Screw the big recruit just keep building and grab the types looking to extend their career who might need a change of scenery (a Brian lake type but a forward).
Pick-up the odd delisted gem as well and go on with it. We've got a decent looking prospect in Sam fisher playing for the Northern blues.
There's ways for us to build and we might need a few bargain basement types.

Article in the HUN about the compensation we would receive if Murph decided to go via free agency at the end of this year (ie, bugger all). Is this a possibility ? As we've seen with Waite, he's alienated himself from the club he played most of his career at.....and for what ?. Is chasing a premiership in the last couple of years of your career worth it ? I don't know, that would be up to the individual I guess. Murph certainly wouldn't benefit financially from a move to a club in premiership contention. Could we afford to lose yet another senior player of his class for nothing ?
For mine, I hope he stays & gets the reward in the last year of his career similar to Shane Crawford !!!
cheers

No, he means Waite.
I can't see Murph leaving the club, unless it's due to unusual circumstances e.g he has a major falling out with the powers that be.
