Expand Never rated Brayshaw before this year. I'm sure the coaches love him to death right now, and would only move him if they had a better replacement on the non-Langdon wing. 2 Quote

Expand Not when someone is wanting to come home and you are the ladder leader with a list set for 5 years of premiership tilts and the best culture in the game.

To me our biggest need is for some outside class, Cerra has this and to get this done Brayshaw is someone that Fremantle may want with picks. Will this get done most likely not but if there was a chance of landing Cerra you would think that Brayshaw would be a key in making this happen. For one making cap room and two having something to offer Fremantle to get the deal done. Quote

Ted Lasso 19,586 Posted August 27, 2021 Posted August 27, 2021 Why on earth would we trade Gus? Cerra is a good player but 750k!? we need to use F/A to round out the edges on our list so we can go for back to back flags. NO SELLING THE FARM 3 Quote

Ed is running machine but like most out mids lacks that polish by foot, adding someone that can get the ball on the outside and hit targets by foot will make us better. Adding Brayshaw into the topic is more what will it cost us to get this trade done, no point have a trade topic if you don't discuss what it will cost you or what you are prepared to give up. It is all hypothetical and we have varying opinions. Quote

It is all hypothetical and we have varying opinions. Expand Understandable, My main point was defensively I think Angus does a great team role as you can see by his intercept possessions/spoils. He does have some clangers by foot but reads the position well and plays a big role for the team. I'm just a bit cautious that if we replace with someone with superior polish there is a risk that of losing that specific cog/role that Gus is playing. I could be wrong, any replacement might be able to do both, but a risk to change a formula that has taken us to the minor premiership 1 Quote
