Probably a bad sign when I had to look up who Sam Frost played for. To be fair I didn't see many Melb games this year. First thoughts are he should have got more of it as a defender for the second bottom team than he did. Looks like pretty much just an average player based on SC stats, shouldn't need to give up too much for him if the Hawks are interested.

Edit: Knew the name sounded familiar for another reason, apparently Sam Frost is also the name of an actress who was on The Bachelor.

Excellent stats. Casts the Adelaide exodus in quite a different light (overdue?) and highlights just how much change most lists go through.
Media putting a spin on it tonight saying most of the guys leaving are not best 22 anymore anyway.

Betts , Ellis-Yolman , Greenwood , Jacobs , Jenkins , Keath.

problem might be trying to convince Carlton to pay a big portion of Betts salary , $ 500k per season for the next 2 years

If the Crouch boys leave that might be a different story though.

- Only one on that list interests me (Greenwood) ... not sold on Keath (role dependent but slightly interested), Jacobs should be a value backup ruckman for any team that needs one ... CEY (potential is there but got no idea)
- As for either of the Crouch boys ... it depends on how you measure them .... lots of possessions for bugger all influence ... a pass for any team to me at their asking price ...

I like Greenwood as a footballer , think there is still massive upside there , from a SC perspective could be of interest depending on price and position.

If Bruce & Keath get to the Dogs , there "bookends" are suddenly looking a lot stronger.

Not sure if CEY gets any better opportunities at the Lions than he did with the Crows with the midfield they already have and are developing.

Think both Crouch are better Fantasy/RDT players.

I am very excited about what the future holds if we can keep our pick 13 too. Added to this is our possible interest in Dougal Howard. I'd pick him up because I am sick and tired of Zaine Cordy.

West Coast fans have been screaming for a long time now to give this kid a game (Myself Included). Has played the last season and a half at WAFL level as a big bodied mid after switching from a key forward role... Was going to be too hard to get a game behind JK & Darling with Allen, Waterman & Brander coming through as well.

Would hate to see him go but I think he probably has to leave if he wants to crack a game... Just too hard at the Eagles at the moment.

Would probably get to any club he wants for virtually nothing as well unfortunately.

Love how Bevo has rebuilt since your flag

Bruce, Naughton & Schache look good up forward.

The key will be how quickly English develops, the sky is the limit.

Bont, Dunkley , Macrae is as good a first tier midfield as anyones

We have the makings of a great team that will be challenging Richmond from 2020 onward. 2021 I think English will explode.
