Will27 Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Mid season draft is an interesting idea. Imagine you were a club with goal kicking issues but on the cusp of making the finals. Your top forward has been injured in round 4. out for the season Mid way through the season you recruit yourself a top forward from a rival club The club you recruit the forward from then goes from being near the finals to missing out Your club makes the finals would the prized free agents have to wait until the end of the year or could they go mid season and play finals. Nathan Buckley advocated the mid season draft last year when Collingwood had a lot of injuries, mentioning it would be a good way to top up with a defender. i wouldn't like to see players switching clubs mid season. I'm all for a mid-season draft. I'm not sure how the Premier League works, but they do have a loan system in place. Just imagine this scenerio, if Teddy Richards went down and WC offered Mitch Brown for Tom Mitchell until the end of the season. That's just an example but If it was a win/win for both clubs, I cannot see why not. It would take a lot of tinkering though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joboss Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 (edited) It's a goal fest. WCE. 8.1 shuffler Another. Gaffs going to kick one soon. 9 goals by the 3rd quarter. Can he get 12 for the game? Nice to have such a good supply. Edited April 10, 2015 by joboss 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will, how did that performance compare to the Eagles against the doggies last week? Mate, we're probably a 5 or 6 goal better side at home. Carlton were dreadful as well. I reckon they might finish bottom 3. We still lack a few quality midfilelders and elite kicks. The chips certainly taste better when you're winning though 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he's fit, IMO he's far and away the best ruckman in the league. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
