Wont he just go to Carlton?  Was minutes away from getting there last trade period

That was last year.  
Does the interest necessarily persist?

 

I don’t believe he was set on Carlton, he just wanted to get back and they were the ones who showed the most intent, although not enough intent obviously.

We should definitely be having a long hard look.

We have nothing to give to Sydney.

Don't be like that, dazzle.  Think positive.

Nibbler and a fourth rounder should be more than enough.

We can chuck in both Wagners as a sweetener

I think that's too much.  Swans would need to add Heeney to do that deal.

Tom McDonald

now that raises an interesting query; what's he worth?

like sideshow bob at north, he's an old fashioned key position player out of favour in an era geared towards mobility

Ask Jack Martin.

Requested to be traded to Essendon one year, then Carltank the next.


Can he play inside midfield? If not, Goodwin won’t be keen.

In 2018 when he was pivotal in our success, he was more than an old fashioned KPP; mobility for size was a major asset.  Unfortunately, probably / possibly due to a foot injury, he has never nearly approached that mobility and his confidence has shattered with it.

2018 feels like a long long time ago 

Future first round. T.McDonald and Preuss.


Brayshaw + a 1st would be Sydney's asking price.....a lot to pay for a small forward!

And a couple of hours later, "Must get Dan Butler".

 

He’s been incredible this year. He’s won them multiple games off his own boot.
