Personally I'd hold onto the pick, I'd contemplate trading for Rhys Stanley (can play ruck and forward), but I'm not a huge fan of trading for players, only draft picks.

This poll has been started in reference to Stuie's thread from yesterday.

Edit: Reference Stuie.

Some of those are maybe worth trading for, but definately not first round. Maybe for later picks, but none exite me enough fot a 1st round pick.

Wasn't Everitt available for free at the end of last year before the Dogs decided to keep him? Not sure.

I'd consider a swap of PJ & Beau Dowler though.

I agree plus Chris Dawes is another to consider.

Posted

As much as I love the idea of having 2 J. Trengoves, I'd keep the pick.

Would maybe consider Tyrone Vickery but probably wouldn't consider trading at all.

I'd take Vickery for a 1st rounder for sure, but no way Richmond would let him go. He's yet to show much at senior level, but he's got an amazing amount of potential (there's that word again) being an elite junior and having great mobility for his size.

From that list i wouldn't mind a Stanley or Hampson, but a 1st round pick for those players is far too high a price.

Would definately give first round pick for Trengove, Vickery or Hampson as long as we don't finish bottom 2.

If we did finish 15th id still strongly consider Trengove and Vickery.

I think we have to address the immediate weakness, which is our forward line.

Therefore I would trade for jack Anthony.

He's no better then green. Lead mark kick. Wasting his height.

Jackson Trengove looks a player. Depending on our draft pick, i might consider.

Vickery. Done and done.

Stanley. Same as Trengove. Might need to have a closer look to fully judge.

The rest are duds or youngsters who haven't played

jackson trengove is going to be a really good player.

john anthony could be what we need.

kepler bradleys recent form has been outstanding and could also slot into our top 22

having said that i wouldnt see us trading our first round draft pick

I don't know much of Dawes except he came from Sandy Dragons & he currently looks like the Quentin Lynch type build. I fear he may be a one position player.

Posted

What's wrong with being a one-position player? How many positions do you want him to fill? He'd be brought into the side solely to add some size and strength to the forward line, so what else do you want from him? The obsession with versatility is already killing the development (and possibly careers) of several of our players. I'd rather have guys who are phenomenal in one position than fair to middling in all of them.

Posted

I'd trade pick 6 (we'll finish 15th) for Taylor Walker. I really like the look of this kid and he has star written all over him and I reckon he'd probably have more upside than any forward available in this years draft. I'd even throw in a SA boy like Rivers or a McNamara to get the trade over the line.

But the more goals Walker kicks, the more he becomes untouchable.

That being said, will Petterd and Jurrah make a huge difference to our fwd line crisis? We really need to add one or two forwards in the trade/draft period that will be walk up starts in round 1 2011.

Dangerfield? Parkin said him and Boak want to go to vic next year. Would he fit?

There are many rumours areound at draft time; maybe Everitt was available, but he certainly wouldn't have come for free.

I would be considering the Swans' Jesse White... 196cm and 105kg, powerful hard at it forward with a good pair of hands (from what I have seen of him) and a good boot.

Im sure either one of thoose players would fit!

Today, not on the bench if he's getting thrashed there's nowhere to put him, he's a liability.

You can't have those players anymore in todays footy.

Your 2nd sentence does not address your first sentence. The reasons he does not get a game at the Pies are the reasons I would not trade for him.

What's wrong with being a one-position player? ... I'd rather have guys who are phenomenal in one position than fair to middling in all of them.

If they cant play that position then they are....

I'd rather have a player who was very good in one key strength and competent to good in others.

Are you selecting Dawes because he is phenomenal in one position? Hmmmm

Any chance the player is actually available??? And you reckon the Crows will be dribbling over 2 players that are not consistent AFL standard? Wow.

I would have thought the lesson with the young talls we have that whoever is drafted will take time to maek their presense felt.

Posted

I'd trade a 3rd round pick for Matthew Kruezer and I'd sweeten it by giving them a package of PJ and Meesen to cover the loss of tall player. What?? Kruezer not available??

Posted

For mine....Rhys Stanley I would certainly be open to.

I've heard plenty about Dangerfield wanting to come home, remember he is a Geelong boy and as much as I could care less about Geelong I would hope that they could end up with Dangerfield should Ablett decide to go. For the sake of every club there should be adequate compensation from GC17...anyway, that topics for another thread I guess!

Where St Kilda are currently placed (premiership clocks etc) we could possibly push for a 2nd rounder swap for him and a player perhaps....Rivers? One of the defenders? I have the opposite view of many here and actually like Riv but you have to give something to get it and IMO I really rate Stanley and I don't mind the look of this.....Rivers and 2nd Round Pick for Stanley and keeping the first round and getting another gem there would be a win I reckon! Pure speculation and food for thought.

Hawthorn need a ruckman too - take PJ hawks, please, please!!

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
