What does everyone think of Dale Finnucane?
Off contract and apparently attracting a fair bit of attention.
Might well be a more cost effective replacement for Gal than JT. He's not the wrecking ball in attack like JT, but he's got a big engine and puts in good numbers.
Could probably get him and Wade for not too much more than the price of a JT.
Finucane is a good player. He works in Melbourne because his role is simple, lock up the middle. Buying Melbourne players on big coin doesn't always work even Wide-open and Blair. They look a million bucks in the Storm system as role players but don't aim up when expected to lead. Blair has been better at Brisbane in a simple role.
The question for the coach is how is the going to played a two years time and what do you need in your team to succeed. JT is the most powerful runner in the game. He needs a rocket to build his minutes. The coach needs to think carefully about the rebuild or else we end up like Manly now.
