Dan Hannebery would be handy if he wants to come on board 

Neither particularly compliments our midfield. I'd take Libba first before Hannebery, but would prefer a pacey, good ball user or a contested beast that is a ball magnet (think Ollie Wines). Libba doesn't get it enough and Hannebery is appeared (to me) to be slowing down this year (not to mention being Sydney-based).

Who else could it be? Out of the Victorian based teams and midfielders (outside of the Essendon youngsters that I've mentioned), I'd only be interested in Cripps (injury doubts), Treloar, Sidebottom (maybe), Jack Steven, Bontempelli, Dahlhaus, Macrae (although is he tough enough?) and Daniel.

Duncan anyone?

Surely we're aiming higher?

I think Lever is the big fish, but the fish and Cripps would be a delicious trade period!

A few people asking me what mail is about.Honestly not much this year.

Hearing the Watts loot will inform next move. They'd like Gaff and question has been asked. Unlikely at this point but shopping assets like Watts gives us a chips at the table. 

Balic more likely than not. 

Gotta be more than Motlop, surely?

I think you mean Mackerel.

Pendlebury wanting to finish his career where he grew up barracking? 

Not sure where to put this or if it has been discussed elsewhere; but I assume BenKen's late(r) delisting means we're now confident of something transpiring list-wise and perhaps in a similar regard. Talk on Menzel seems to have gone quiet though?

I took it more as there being little interest in him from a trade perspective so we've let him go.

But would we not still hang onto him until a bit further down the line? Though I suppose that works both ways - why free up a spot until you definitely need it? Unless maybe we have a definite in?

Given we already have several spots available though? No idea, you might be right, something may have come up.

Trying to recall previous seasons. Was it Dawes, Michie and maybe Newton who were let go later last year? After trade week? And do we need the compulsory spots open and available before the draft?

He did put up that post recently about the Wizards incredible prelim final performance.

Damn those pesky modern kids. Not only are they experts on the google-machine, but already know how to say all those confusing ethnic refugee names infiltrating the AFL. 

Wonder if we are looking at Isaac Smith from the Hawks?

Almost 29 but would compliment our midfield perfectly as the outside runner for 2-3 years, plus premiership experience.

I'd offer up a 2nd round pick for him which the Hawks may bite on seeing as they have to re-juvenate their list.

Thoughts?

My stab in the dark is Dalhaus

If you could get him for a second rounder and convince him to come across it's a no brainer.

Shouldn't we be listening to this...?

Honestly don't think it's anyone. We'll get Lever and possibly Balic. Usually by now you hear what names we're sniffing around, but these two are the only ones we've heard so far.

As long as he doesn't take the last kick of the match for a win.

Agree with @dazzledavey36

Unless something crazy happens these things are usually already almost done by the start of trade week.

Yeah ... just like Lewis last year ...

At least the Hogan crap seems to have gone away
