[red and blue forever 781]

What paper work? If he's delisted doesn't he need to be picked up in the PSD?

Anyway I'm not as down in the dumps about him as most people, will cost nothin', as long as he doesn't keep Blease out of the side I can live with it.

Pedersen & Pick 39 to Melbourne

Gysberts = Ray + Pederson? I'd do that deal.

For yet another rumor that I've heard today:

Gysberts to Essendon

Pears & Cripps (Saints) to West Coast

A failed pick 4 for a failed pick 11.

Upgrade!

Gys hasn't failed yet, he had an injury riddled year and still did quite well in the VFL upon his return.

Gysberts to Port

Jacobs to North

Pedersen & Pick 39 to Melbourne

Use Pick 39 on Ray???

That is the reverse of the Martin deal and if you wanted to get rid of Gys you would do it. We get Ray and Pedersen for Gys.

Then we could trade Martin and 49 to Lions for 33 and keep 33.

I was thinking if Eagles want Morton can we try and get a straight swap for Ash Smith. Victorian boy might be happy to come home.

You need to read a couple of the other threads. This was a troll exercise that caught Jay CLark...

[sue 8,463]

What the hell are we doing? Byrnes, Rodan, Dawes on half a mill a year!! Looking at a very average outside player in Ray, a VFL swingman, and Ben Warren!

Welcome to trading for beginners.

We've got a new regime making the decisions. Let's assume a group of professionals know what they are doing until it's proven otherwise. After all, their future depends on them getting things right (unlike us posters).

Like how we assumed the group of professionals of the last 5 year would work and knew what they were doing?

I don't think we have to assume they're doing whats needed, as this infers we're all worried about the direction, of getting cheap mature players onto our list, as we jettison some young ones who haven't put in.

I think there are many here who are happy we are grabbing some mature types who can take the wheel & charge a new direction, as our kids relearn they're ways.

I, for one am happy with this sudden change, But would have liked to have had P13 or P20 still available for the draft. But all in all, am relieved on our direction so far.
