Apparently will be testing out the market after a falling out with the Bulldogs.

Had a poor season but at his best is capable of just about anything and can break a game open like few others.

What would you be willing to give up for him?

Lumumba

Maybe for a packet of chips. Bit of an overrated show pony I reckon. 

BT's head would explode trying to call 'the Package' wearing red and blue! 

Nothing... 0

Has hammy issues and poor final series last year. Not a big game player!

PASS

id take him for sure. has shown he has the talent and is still only young.  i would certainly have him before gaff. who knows, maybe he could be reinvented as a backman.

An upgrade on Dean Kent.

A strong club will turn him around and get the most out of him. The question is whether we consider ourselves as such a club.

He has the talent to be one of the best in the comp, but these days he seems more interested in trying to get cheap goals out the baxjnand his work rate isn there. 

We fortunately have Macca who knows plenty about him. 

If we thought we could get him back to his best we'd be silly not to look at him but if there is any doubt we can't afford another guy who picks and chooses when he has a crack 

Watts for Stringer... straight swap of 2 prodigiously talented but underperforming players

Colin sylvia mark 2.  All the ability but does he want it

I believe he has a whole raft of issues

Lock up your wives and girlfriends..

His best is very good but we really dont need him. Have fun in Queensland Jake.

Played very well in the finals the year before.

He clearly hasn't got his head straight at the moment and he's coming off two poor years.  However, he's an All Australian with prodigious talent who's shown that when he's 'on' he has the potential to be one of the best in the biz.

This could be a classic case of buy low, sell high.  Would be interested to see what the Doggies would want for him.

Except for that time he was an AA and kicked 56 goals in a season.

Sylvia may have featured in our top 5 in the BnF once in his career if he was lucky?

Stringer has runs on the board and is proven quality. Obviously something has gone on this year. I'm not saying we should get him, but he's nothing like Sylvia. 

Head case. Not our area of expertise

Goodys game plan requires forward pressure.....

Hogan, Watts and Stringer in the same forward line would be a disaster.

Thought I'd gladly trade Watts for Stringer. 

Agreed we would have to let Watts go if we wanted Stringer, Stringers best is better than Watts overall in big games, just needs to get his act together 

Just what we need.....another Lazy player,no thanks.

The club would be foolish not to inquire.

His 2015 form was just sensational.

Both, Brendan McCartney (ex-coach) and Todd Viney (2012 recruitment manager, also having spent a lot of time around the Vic Country squad) should have a good insight into his character.

I thought it was the other way round.

I wonder why you suddenly have a so called fallout when a year ago you won a premiership with this team. 

Has he sooked it up because Bevo dropped him because he wasn't performing, or did he not think he got club support when his marriage fell apart. Which would surprise me considering how they supported Tom Boyd. 

No I don't want him. yes he is only 23 but doesn't chase enough and a bit inconsistent. I hope he sorts it out with the dogs and stays there. 

This thread reminds me of the Dustin Martin thread three years ago when nobody wanted him. Stringer has similar potential to Petracca. As he gets older he could develop into a great player, but even if he doesn't reach his potential, he will still be worth more than whatever pick the dogs get for him. It's a yes for me. 

wanted neck tatts three years ago, will happily have stringer now

but...he's third / fourth on list of priorities

lever
gaff / whitfield
stringer

I'd go:

Whitfield

Gaff

Stringer

Lever

That order would easily change depending on the asking price of each.
