Instead of Gaff, I'd consider McGovern or Liberatore over Gaff. We need another defender so McGovern could be FB with Lever off HB. Or Liba, Oliver, Brayshaw, Viney,....WOW!

    Libba been offered 600k a year from Lions, wants to stay at dogs and it will be for a lot less.

    If you could replace a potential retiring Vince with Hannebery would you do it?

    Would you upgrade Tyson for David Swallow?

    What about replacing a Frost with Steven May? Would you find a way?

    Lewis for Gaff? Jordan to the box

     

    • Yes go for Hannebery after Gaff
    • Yes go for Swallow after Gaff
    • No Frost is too versatile to lose - good coaching will be all it takes to amend his ways as he really is a talent at 100mph
    • Yes Lewis has reached an onfield sunset but would be a great 2IC coach

    What if we went after Zac Jones and offered up Tyson and a player/pick? With Sydney's mature mids in their 30's a player like Tyson would be best 22 and play the next 4-5 years in the middle.

    Zac would be a real asset - and a two-for-one deal would be feasible, particularly if those two were from Tyson, OMac, JKH, Bugg, Smith - not Joel. Oh, hell ... a 3-for-one deal!

    It's too early this year, but the player I'd be in the ear of is Ed Richards at the pups. I reckon he steps straight into Bernie or Lewis' spot and the upside is huge.

    A star in the making. It’ll be interesting to see if he ends up at the Pies in time

    Yes that's another reason to go hard at him. Might be the last straw for old Chins.

    Zac Jones coffs it up as much as Tyson. Hopefully he can clean that area up like his brother did. Gaff is the only one I would go for.

    Zac Jones for Tyson? Where do I sign. Don’t think dom will leave Melbourne and we might be better hanging onto him in case we get some injuries. Handy depth player

    Good call. But we do need more speed and ground level threat at the feet of Hogan, McDonald and even Melksham. Jeffy is one. Spargo is another but isn't quick. Petracca is more explosive than quick too.

    We need at least one more small, maybe even two. I suspect Kent will be kept on the list for this reason. Unless, Taylor and co think there are some speedy goal sneaks in the mould of the last few Rioli's up for grabs at the end of this season.

    Spargo is quick in the mind, a distributor.

    Jeffy is flee't.

    We need pace on the run, that comes inboard a footy player.   A player who can and will play, anywhere the team needs.

    So could Zac Jones as a Swan. Think they'd rather keep him than trade for Turnover Tyson

    You know when you listen to SEN (come on most of us do occasionally) and they have the “call in and tell us your realistic trade/FA scenarios for you club” segment... and all you do is roll your eyes for 3 mins before getting embarrassed by some Pies nuffy saying they will trade chit truck  player x for gun player y and then get FA gun is “cumin to da Pies as well”. 

    You’re so embarrassed for them you turn it off... seems like this thread over the last few pages.

    Hi cards so who will use as a trade for a KPB seeing as how we have no first round draft picks to use?

    Bottom line we must have a few up our sleeves on the assumption Gaff will more than likely play games with the MFC and stay with West Coast.

    Aaron Hall for Dom Tyson. 

    Both have flaws but Hall fits our team better and suns get a ball winning mid.

    To get gaff as well and hunt to come back and improve, we will have better balance.

    Dom Tyson won’t leave Victoria. He wanted to come home from the giants basically right away 

    I’d say a few vic teams will be keen on him but personally I’d rather hang onto him

    Am I the only one not huge on Zac Jones? Not a bad player, but if he wasn't related to a certain Melbourne skipper, I don't think there'd be much interest in him.

    Arrange a deal for Ivan Soldo, huge upside.

    You’re not the only one, for me it’s the fact he signed an extension with the Swans last year to remain there until the end of 2019.

    You have thrown in our main key defender( and brother of our best forward). Wow!

    .

    The suns desperately need leadership, just as we've had from Lewis in the past 2 years grooming the clubs culture.  And just as the Lions have had from Hodgey.

    I reckon the AFL would like to help the Suns get back on-track...

     

    So, to me, a win-win would be something like : >  NJones and ZJones to the Suns.  Leadership in dedication and commitment, you will not surpass. Two brothers playing together for the first time.

    Our take... Touk Miller or Ben Ainsworth.

    The Swans, I imagine, not sure of they're needs.  Maybe Jarrod Witts, or someone else?

     

    The Suns have been in "parte` mode" for far too long now,,, and they need some clean livin' hard edged people, who will back one another, to start to turn that culture around, from the ground floor.

    Sen, hinted that we may be interested in Anthony Miles.

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
