Players to target at the end of the year

[Moneider96 1,045]

I agree....we need something exciting...we better be signing some big fish this offseason

[hulkhogan666 142]

Met Malceski's cousin last night, said that Nick was as good as gone from the Swans, is moving back to Melbourne and most importantly will be a Dee this off-season.

Take that for what you will.

Hope you are right hulkster. We have terrible delivery off half back ATM.

[Moneider96 1,045]

That's awesome! Malceski is a beast...watched him rip the bombers a freshy

[Demonsterative 3,020]

The Dom is good and will be a star. Along with Viney. Add Hogan and Cameron and the club for the first time since 1994 will have real stars.

Let's hope injury does not kill us like 94.

[Moneider96 1,045]

Would you rather Cameron or Petracca and Brawyshaw tho?

[Demonsterative 3,020]

With Frawley leaving we could have Cameron and one of Brayshaw or Petracca

[Moneider96 1,045]

Hmmm...sorry I can't see that scenario playing out atm. Can you give me an example of what we might have to offer to get him if we don't offer pick 2 and 3?

Cameron and Pretracca....... hmmmmm...... drool...... doughnuts.... yes please.

[Moneider96 1,045]

I mean its great to be optimistic and all...but the only reason why Gws would trade cameron is if they get Petracca and another people as compensation. Sorry for being the party pooper!

If Cameron decides he is leaving it will force GWS hand. Pick two and three is overs for Cameron IMO. Not even Judd in his prime demanded two high draft picks.

The club knows it needs midfielders. They won't give up 2 high draft picks. Unless Shiel is part of the package.

Don't GWS have an end of first round compo pick up their sleeves?

If they do, our first pick plus frawley compo (2&3 or 3&4) for Cameron and their end of first rounder.

[Moneider96 1,045]

But then I guess if Cameron actually wanted to leave...he could go for a lot less

[Moneider96 1,045]

Ye that's what I meant sorry... Pick 2 and 3 for Cameron and a 'fringe' player or draft pick should get the job done

Err... Wasn't Judd traded pick 3 plus Josh Kennedy? That's two great high picks effectively.

If we have pick 2 and 3, ideally we'd trade 3 + player (hate to say it, Watts) for Cameron and take Petracca with 2. Gotta give something good to get something good. Or pick 2 for Cameron and take Brayshaw with 3. Or it could be the Roosy 'special' al la Dom and 1st rounder, or a tangled 3-way deal including our pick 2 or 3. Who knows.......

Josh Kennedy was massively underwhelming at the Blues therefore speculative at the time Moonshadow. Kennedy is also a West Australian.

Watts was pick one in his year!

Who has also been massively underwhelming unfortunately.

I think you are "massively" undervaluing Kennedy. He showed considerable potential at the Blouses and was pick 4 in a draft that included Pendles, Nate Jones, Paddy Ryder and Grant Birchell.

Jack Watts pick 1......meh!

[Moneider96 1,045]

Have you guys been watching that recruiting show...kinda like xfactor but for footy. Wonder which club is offering the contract

Hope so too Moon, would hate having him pull my leg on this one. Yes Malceski is around 30 y/o but he's in terrific form and would boost the delivery from half back. Would be a very handy acquisition for the next few years that's for sure.

Adelaide or Port, cos it's an SA boy who wins.

Edit: allegedly.

Disagree with you here Moonshadow. At the Blues Kennedy was a massive disappointment. He not only did he under perform, he didn't show a lot of potential. The club was happy to let him go.

Subiaco is a ground that has suited his style of play and the Eagles have done well out of that trade. The kid is a star now.

Not true.

Sticks has gone on record many times saying they didn't want to let him go but had no choice in order to get Judd in.

[Demonsterative 3,020]

So Sticks, who is leaving a club in disarray, says something therefore what I believe is wrong.....

I could say your wrong Andrew on both accounts. Believing an under performing President and on the Kennedy issue

[whatwhat say what 22,684]

Well, I think I'll stick with someone who has commented about it on the record who has direct links to the deal as the then head of football at the club doing the trading as opposed to a Melbourne supporter.
