I don't have any problem with trialling Brew. He's just won the Liston Trophy, averages 29 Disposals and a huge 10 Tackles per game. Granted, he'll be 28 before the next season starts but 2 other Werribee players have just been drafted which speaks to the quality of their list.
It is just a trial and we've missed out on a few local players in recent times. Deserves a shot IMO.

10 tackles a game I don't care how old he is.
Your can never have too many players on your list with that effort.

Love Brew’s story but I really hope we give the last spot to Boyd. He’s a little short for an AFL ruckman but he plays in a Ben Hudson/Brodie Grundy style that Bev might actually use if needed. Averaged 20 disposals, 40 hit outs and 10 clearances in the SANFL this year. Would be great to have him showing the ropes to Lachie Smith at VFL level, as his playing style is very similar to Smith’s. He can pinch hit at either end too, so we could still give Smith plenty of ruck minutes.

If Boyd plays anything like Hudson/Grundy sign me up.
We need some mongrel in the ruck, someone to push Timmy.

His tackle numbers were also slightly down this year from previous years and he still led the league.

No issues with Brew as a train on player and potential rookie pick on one condition we don’t try to turn him into a small forward/wing HFF type.

If we pick him up he plays mid either in the VFL or AFL none of this mids as small forwards crap we’ve seen over and over again

Absolutely spot on.
