Kurt Tippett

West Coast - likely Wellingham

Hawthorn - made the GF, don't need much

North - likely Caddy

Bulldogs - after Dawes

The rest are more at a draft stage I would have thought

Wellingham - Trade

Caddy - Trade

Dawes - Trade

Not FA as you're bleating we're not having a crack at

Mate you were asking about those teams so I gave you an answer.

We are in desperate need of quality players and SO FAR I'm pretty disappointed about what's known of our efforts.

[bing181 9,328]

It only adds to the disappointment when not much happens.

Speak for yourself.

I was talking in reference to FA which is what you were bleating about

You even stated you don't want trades as you want to keep draft picks

Don't change the goal posts

You said EVERYONE was having a crack

Mate - we've been linked with nearly every single out of contract FA / Player at some stage in the last couple of months

Don't act as though we're doing nothing

An old bull and a young bull stand on a hillside, overlooking a pasture. The young bull says to the old bull, “Hey, let’s run down and blank one of those heifers.” The old bull replies, “let’s walk down and blank ‘em all."

Covers the situation nicely.

Incorrect. If you were paying attention, I said I don't like trading for contracted players. So who's moving the goal posts?!

I misread

You're still ignoring the facts that it's day 2

Many other clubs have been silent

We've been far from silent

Weve been linked to NUMEROUS players

Wellingham, Dawes, Pearce, Monfries, Byrnes, Rodan, Lynch, Caddy and so on

What more do you want us to publically do simply to appease impatient supporters?

Sign a few FA's day 1 just for the sake of it

Give me the definitive list of who you want us to trade for / get under FA

[Pennant St Dee 13,301]

+ 1

not much experience in life I'm thinking,

Dear christ nothing has happened by day 2 we must be doing nothing FFS

Sure other clubs have been silent, but we're in desperate need of quality players, especially if it means NOT giving up our draft picks.

Not including the draft, I would have liked to have got via trade/FA:

-Tippett

-Caddy

-K Stevens

-Byrnes

-Wellingham

Realistically, I think we'll get Dawes, Byrnes, and maybe one surprise. Depending on who the surprise is I'll be either satisfied without being happy or underwhelmed.

We can't keep relying on 18 year olds from the draft, we NEED players who have played 100 games +

Yet all but Byrnes you would have to trade for. What do you trade?

WE haven;t been silent though!

We've been vocal!

Byrnes toured our facilities today

Tippett realistically will go to QLD

Re Caddy Dawes Wellingham here you go

Are happy now?

[stuie 7,374]

Yet all but Byrnes you would have to trade for. What do you trade?

Ok let me explain. I was obviously just talking about FA with the bit you highlighted. To me, a team with tons of salary cap space and high draft picks, who needs experience, should be pretty active in the FA period.

The players I listed as trade for players I would be happy to trade picks for (at the right price).

Why do you think I listed those players mate? Sheesh...

[Viney12 196]

I'm sorry, you've gone from bemoaning the fact we've been "quiet" on day the 1st 2 days of FA to....actually I don't even know what you're bitching about anymore

'Tis the silly season.

Now expect an avalanche of fist pumping by Melbourne supporters who spent half their day calculating the Pies players salaries.

[cowboy_from_hell 2,390]

If we had a semi good side we could go after one gun player ie: Tippett or Goddard but we have a lot more holes to fill so I'm happy to not pay overs for tippet and Goddard. I can't believe Goddard is on 800k a year and Kurt will probably get more then that. I'd rather pay overs for mid range players like wellingham, Dawes and maybe caddy. I wanted cloke because he is in the top 5 in his position I don't think bj and tippet are.

Agree with this which is why I am surprised that we would let a player like Rivers leave....

"(If) he (Tippett) wants to go to Melbourne, guess what, Carlton will out up their hand for him," Malthouse said on Adelaide radio station 5AA.

"Of course I'm going to get involved.

"I always thought Tippett was going to go back to the Gold Coast or Queensland because that's where he comes from.

"Adelaide, to me, are a club on the rise ... now all of a sudden you hear Sydney or Melbourne and I just don't get that."
