By end of season Gallop will consign all this debate to the "Who needs JUH/Lewis/Allen" thread on this forum.

Gallop will still need a partner in crime. You're forgetting that Ty was so intimidating Hippy decided to move into the backline.
Well that's a good point. A few unhappy campers apparently. I guess he gets singled out a bit by supporters because they saw him as the answer to some of their problems and 4 years in he hasn't delivered what you'd hope from a No 1 pick. His numbers in '24 were reasonable enough for a young forward. They expected more. The fact that they've yet to lock him up makes you wonder.
Apart from how we rate him of all the younger forwards out there he would seem the most gettable right now.

Pretty much mirrors with Rayner's perception, before this year's finals performance.

Can't wait for JUH to kick 4 in next year's GF as we go Back-To-Back-to-back
Rayner was older ,had 6 years already prior to '24 , so in that sense JUH is still a pup.
For some reason there doesn't seem to be much discussion about JUH's contact on the Dogs board or on the Trading board, despite being mentioned a few times by the AFL website as a potential Lions target. Not sure why.
He isn’t out of contract until 2026 so that’s probably why.
Bring back Stuey Trott.
Will JUH play in the all stars team? If so he will get a taste of working along side Callum and Charlie.

We do have depth to fall back on apart from CHF so who are these players and is it enough.
Clubs are required to bring in players from the draft. That ensures inexperience is always on your list.
That can be hit and miss but the last few years the Lions have had a good run and Annable next year.
I excluded Oscar (injury), Coleman (injury) Day, & Levi as i have them starting 23.
Midfield/Wing: Reville (AFL proven), Marshall, Torrent (untried), Robertson & Tunstill (biding time but can fill a gap).
Ruck: Fort, Smith (R/F).
Forward: McCarthy (injury), Gardiner (injury) (AFL proven), Lloyd, Gallop, McLachlan, Craven (untried), Ryan (fills a gap).
Defense: Answerth, McKenna, Joyce, Brain, Doedee (injury) (AFL proven), Beecken ZZ (untried).

Still only a couple of players like TDK or Allen that I'd be interested in chasing for us. There are some other good players there but really in positions of need for us
