Gorringe and Prestia?

I think people like the idea of what Gorringe is supposed to be - a good, well balanced forward/ruckman. However the reality is that he has played 5 games in the last two seasons and has struggled since being drafted.

Perhaps he is worth a spot on the list if his development in the seconds is on the right track, but I'm not that keen on him after looking into it a bit more.

Gorringe and Prestia?

Gorringe on the move it would seem: http://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/afl-premiership/afl-market-watch-daniel-gorringe-to-leave-gold-coast-aaron-hall-in-demand-mitch-brown-in-form/story-e6frf3e3-1227529050191

Gorringe and Prestia?

potential rookie ?

Zac Smith was on the outer for a while, now it seems to be Gorringe.

I guess you could say, Gorringe is the new Zac.

Thank you, I'm here all the time, try the fish.

Zac Smith looked like being the next best ruckman in the competition for a while there.

I wouldn't be upset if he came to us.

Get a strong feeling our off-season targets boil down to Prestia or nothing.

You put him in a starting midfield with Petracca, Brayshaw, Viney, Jones, VdB and Vince and you have a healthy balance of experience at both ends of the scale, and A-grade talent. It's an imposing group equal if not superior to GWS, which would have us genuinely pressing for a top 8 finish.

If Todd Viney did meet with Clayton then I think he would've been the only Suns player discussed.

Id be super surprised if we were only content to flesh out ONE player

There'll be a shopping list

I doubt Prestia would be the only player targeted when Bennell, Gorringe, O'Meara & Dixon are supposed to be leaving the Suns. It may be that Gold Coast are willing to move other players on & the same could be said for Port Adelaide if they are serious about acquiring Dixon. Roos has been forward in letting everyone know we want to improve our list, I presume we would try & get involved in facilitating as many trades as possible to change our list.

• Jay Clark .... Also need another big forward to partner big boy Jesse Hogan.

Chris Dawes?

Could be first round and Howe for Prestia.

Would take it, probably. Would prefer a second rounder on the way back too, but we simply need to recruit some class into the club, and Prestia is that in spades.

I'd take it in a nanosecond.

Is this you speculating, mate or have you heard something? Seems fair to me.

Would want their third rounder back to trade for Melksham. Should be late 30's.

So is there any news about Prestia or has this just been brought up for no reason?

Option two.

Option two.

I wish people wouldn't do that.

I don't even understand why bing181 put his quote in this thread when it's do with Hogan and nothing to do with Prestia... unless I'm missing something.

I'd like to think we can name every mid fielder in every other team over the course of the summer. I'm hearing strong rumours around Dale Thomas.

Well that was 3 minutes of my life i wont get back..

Quick, go and start 'The Daisy Thomas thread' so we can watch halfwits argue about his value to our side and how we will only need to trade a 20th rounder pick to land him!

It didn't really take you three minutes to read that, did it Daz?

Words like 'speculating' and 'nanosecond' required a dictionary check for ol' dazzle...

Nah just speaking sh it really.

Just wanted a bit of 'me' time

The stuff about him and Mick? Yeah, heard that too. Not that I'm to judge how people choose to love.
