A top up player can be good value at the right price and right availability. Doesn't have to be best 22.

How many more top up players do you want ??

Fantasia
Haynes
Lord
Boyd
White
Cincotta
Evans
Cottrell
O'Keeffe
Duffy
Monahan

11 players out of 45, that's 25% of our playing list that are top up options (i.e. undrafted & untraded for).



Interesting week to play the Cats

Undrafted & untraded:
Stengle
T Atkins
Dempsey
Close
J Henry
Z Guthrie
Blicavs
Mullin
O'Connor
Martin

Pike, Retschko, Ivisic, Burke

@DJC, cripps is a better third forward than anyone else on our list amd that was before we lost Kemp.

I dont know what Kemp is, he's a good ordinary player, but he's a player i can't work out what he is, and utility is all I got.

I think we saw a little bit in the 2nd half that they will use Cripps forward.   With Hewitt, Cerra, Walsh and Lord that makes a little bit of sense.  Pitto isn't good enough to play first up.  

We are keen again to drop our small forwards.   I thought by committee the small forwards in Motlop, Durdin, White and Williams played well.    If Ellijah is match fit I would bring him in as he offers a different dynamic up forward.
