Hird and Sheahan were discussing On The Coach last night whether West Coast should offer up Kerr and Cox for trade. They seemed to think WC should trade for early draft picks (if the players were willing to go). Which got me wondering...

1. Should MFC trade a player or draft pick for 1 or both of these players?

2. What is the trade value of Kerr and Cox to other teams (especially Gold Coast)?

I am interested to hear what others think.

2. What is the trade value of Kerr and Cox to other teams (especially Gold Coast)? Not very high.

1. Kerr 27, Cox 29 - Definately not in our window.

2. That's for them to decide, it doesn't concern us so pointless wasting time thinking about it.

1) Nope. Too old.

2) I think there trade value is still really good. Cox is still an awesome ruckman. Hawks would have to be really keen. Hawks would have to give up there number 1 pick. Eagles would probably want more than that.

Kerr's value has gone down a little as he has been injured for for the past few years. Late first rounder would do it. Bombers might be keen?

Easy: No & No

Cox is waining (no impact this year & injured); Kerr has had no impact for 3 yrs (since Judd & Cousins left/etc) and always injured.

I'd be very surprised if there was much interest from any club.

It is not Kerr's age at 27 that bothers me. When fit he is hands down elite in this competition. What bothers me about Kerr is his off field antics and attitude.

Jamar is a cheaper, younger and soon to be better option than Dean Cox.

I think that they were insinuating them being possible Gold Coast targets. From their perspective they would certainly bring much needed leadership and maturity to a young growing team.

From an MFC perspective.... Maybe three years ago but not interested now. Neither of them fill our needs and will cost over what they are worth longevity wise.

MFC should say no to both of them.

GC should say no to Kerr but chase Cox. If Cos were to move, he would be worth at least a 1st round pick. And which clubs have first round pick to give?

And Cox at 29 is too old??? FFS. What garbage. He should be in his prime. Cox has played every game this year in a very ordinary Eagles outfit.

This thread might be worse than the one where blokes are saying they'd prefer to see us miss out on the finals?!

Cox and Kerr have no place on the dee's list and i reckon they would be likley to retire if the eagles were planning to move them on.

Cox is way past it, but will play on for a year or two more while Natinui becomes a football player & Kerr (without injury) is a better player than 100% of their young midfielders. If they are looking long term they should look to pick up some good young talent (maybe by trading their senior players) and get rid of woosha becasue he doesnt seem to coach / develop the younger players.

I don't want us to trade for anyone unless there is a good full forward who has decided to leave his club so we can get him relativity cheap - and I just don't see that happening.

Who in the AFL do you rate as a good FF, regardless of your criteria?

There aren't many.

I don't expect one to be on offer TBH. They would have to be under 25, have some form, be annoyed at their club and we would have to be able to out bid other clubs for them.

My point really was that unless we are pretty much gifted that sort of player I'd rather we stayed away from the trade table.

Be a very backward step for us to take either. Cox might top up a team Kerr over the hill . Move on nothing to see here

Don't see room for either of these guys at the MFC. Would be very dissapointed if we we're to take either, but it's only a moot point. Can't see it happening and would be willing to put the house and car on it!

Not for us.

However, for the others: -

Kerr/27, Poss', to the Bombers, who seem to need on-ballers.

Cox/29, Maybe, to the Hawks, who need a quick return from a Ruck investment.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
