absolutely... yes yes yes. get him we need small forwards.

I raised it on here a week ago but apparently he has nominated the Blues and will likely get there today. We don't have anything left to give up for him. Our earliest pick is now 57 so unless we can upgrade we're done for this trade period.

Hibberd is better than Tuohy, who can be a shocking turnover merchant.

Just looked at the stats. Much, much better.

Tuohy is ordinary. The cats seem to be getting desperate.

Obviously I wasn't being serious about moving in with him.  I just want ANB to learn as much as he possibly can about the way he goes about his footy.

Maybe he can be their families match-day nanny, and can catchup with Lewis about the game after he returns

This one is from left-field. Pat McKenna goes from GWS to Melbourne with picks 51 (R3) and 69 (R4) for picks 57 (R3) and 59 (R4).

Must have been in the works for a while, we have a highlights package already:

[Dee-licious 1,949]

That is now 3 in and 3 out. We now need to see another 3 out..... Dunn is one, who will be the other 2?

Dunn, Newton and Dawes. Michie may well go too.

[Dee-licious 1,949]

Cleary reporting that Dawes is no longer a Melbourne player. 

[Mickey 4,668]

Mitch Cleary reporting that Dawes is gone. Was informed today apparently

[Demons11 7,006]

Dawes delisted

Looks pretty good!

[Deeman 1,497]

Patrick - thank god.

I thought we might have blown pick 58 on Peter McKenna.

He must be nearly 70 years old!!!

Michie's a rookie, so wouldn't make a difference to our trade plans if he goes.

 

Vardy to WCE for pick 72? Surely we could have put up something better than that?

If he gets an injury-free run, this will be the best deal of the trade period.

[In Harmes Way 7,765]

Mitch Clark gets out on the park more than Vardy - whilst Vardy has potential upside, it's a no from me

No, I know, but he's another that'll probably go, meaning we'll free up a rookie spot.

Boy that music puts you to sleep !!

Were they seconds or firsts games he was playing? The crowd was almost zero !!!

(Perhaps they were NAB cup/challenge games)

Hawks will offer Pick 10 + Isaac Smith for JOM...

Watch this space... Hawks have lost the plot!

His arrogance and smugness cost them a chance to play in the Grand Final.  While I'm not sure if you are taking the pi$$ or not with the above, I'll presume you aren't, and will wonder if that;s part of the reason why he's being offered up.

Misses a shot to get his team into the GF one month...

I thought they'd be going the Sydney route.

If trade talk points are correct, 14+17=2100 and #10 = 1300. Then they only need to offer a #20-25 type pick to even the trade. Would more likely be Hartung, Puopolo or Siciliy to Sydney I think and send 14 + 17 to GCS ?

HUGE MISTAKE!

they should just hold on, there is no way the Suns are really going to let him walk for nothing.

Talk around that GWS may be stripped of draft picks over the Whitfield episode!!  Now wouldn't that make a lot of people happy!  A bit of poetic justice one would think.

Back to the draft: they might do a last minute deal to get 2017 early picks.  I don't usually hypothesise about picks but this would be nice:  GWS: a 2016 1st and 2nd round for MFC: 2017 1st round and 2016 #69 which has draft points value and 2017 3rd round.  We could always trade into 2017 later rounds next year.

Why do it: might get us the ruck/forward with their 2016 2nd round and give us a 1st round pick.  Of course we would only do it if we had a target in the 1st round.

Doable?
