Team Mgmt. Makeup of our team II - Strengths & deficiencies, player development

Soo, now for the wash up;

OUS;
Kaine Baldwin (key defender) < -- > (none as key defender)
Jayden Davey (small fwd) < -- > Isaac Kako
Dyson Heppell (general def) < -- > Zak Johnston
Nick Hind (general def) < -- > Angus Clarke
Jaiden Hunter (key fwd) < -- > Kayle Gerryn
Jake Kelly (utility) < -- > Jaxon Prior??
Jake Stringer (general fwd) < -- > Archer Day - Wicks
Tex Wanganeen (general def) < -- > Rhys Unwin
Sam Weidemann (key def) < -- > Key defender or perhaps its writing on wall and Cox is being settled in defence ?

Looking at the outs, perhaps a key defender would be a nice addition. I know we have Baldwin potentially training with us but would like a younger guy to develop for the longer term.

I don't think it's a question of whether Ralph is right or wrong (I didn't and wouldn't read the article in question for the reasons I'm talking about) - my main point here is what credibility does he have? What is there to suggest he has any idea at all about what he is talking about?

He is not a 'journalist' in the sense that many journalists go on fact-finding missions, interview experts and those in the know, build up a solid knowledge base and body of evidence then present that information with an element of his own educated analysis. He is a journalist in terms of someone who has contacts in the industry who are willing to tell/leak things to him which he then reports in the form of 'I think X player did/is going to do X thing' or 'this is what happened with this incident'.

I totally get what you're saying, journalism has a lot of different elements and forms, but the idea that the 'I was told this rumour so will now report it' guy is given a platform to write a sprawling opinion piece on what a football club should do to improve on and off the field is simply farcical.

staff writers/columnists etc, etc.

mostly agree but i think starting bryan in the magoos will be detrimental. i want him to get as much game time as possible this year

And playing Draper, Bryan and Wright in the same team makes us too slow. So if Bryan is selected you'd think Wright would be in the 2's.

So when can we officially sign Prior?
