What 18,810 Posted August 30, 2017 Posted August 30, 2017 Hes about to turn 31, and hes a ruckman. Tipping a huge drop off next year and a retirement at seasons end.
Dr.D 1,771 Posted August 30, 2017 Posted August 30, 2017 lets no shoot down the poster for suggesting trading gawn for kelly. i dont agree with it but at least he understands that you have to give up quality to get quality. some people on here were suggesting watts and Spencer etc. i think gawn will return back better next season but gawn wasnt in the top 10 ruckman this season even when playing

On another note I would be open to putting Max Gawn on the trade table particularly in a bid to do a trade for Josh Kelly. Trade the only real ruck we have - naaa

The fact that Jamar and Spencer were kept makes the decision even worse, irrespective of any personal issues that were in play. That said, I can't see him wanting to come to us, or us wanting him, unless Max decides to further his media career. The Darren Jolly trade would have to be up there with the worst.

This is the guy who was compiling 25 to 30 possessions a game last year at least and on top of his very competitive hit out numbers. I must admit I have not checked his numbers this year but is he now gone so quickly?

Am I missing something here? Edit: Seems he is from Victoria originally.... not sure where I got that idea from. Probably because Spencil is from Qld. Getting your ruckman mixed up Dom.

Him going to the Dogs really would be like a rose amongst the thorns!

Adzman 2,154 Posted September 5, 2017 Posted September 5, 2017 Martin's game is starting to regress. Has 2 years left before its curtains. Would rather role the dice on a player with some room to grow. Gawn has #1 ruck covered.
Jibroni 5,056 Posted September 5, 2017 Posted September 5, 2017 I think Stefan should remain a past player and for his sake he should stay with the Lions.
