Yes please. Jet.

[Gorgoroth 12,656]

At his age he should come pretty cheap too

Would be a very nice get.

iiiiiiiiiinteresting - 27 year old, hard running half back / defensive wingman

what's his value? pear will be targeting a first rounder, you'd think

[Swooper Northey 456]

Would be a very handy addition. Houston's inclusion at half back would free up Rivers to become a permanent mid. He's a great kick and would provide plenty of run.

I'd be very keen on Houston but, then again, I'm a "glass half full" kind of person. 

I think Dan's more of a "glass about to be empty" kind of person.

You think?

He won't be cheap imo.

I guess it's what you are thinking we will have to give up for him compared to his quality level. All Australian last year. Contracted for another 2 years.

Gun. You’d happily give up a 2025 or 2026 first rounder for him especially with us having F/S and academy players coming through in those years.

[adonski 10,595]

The contracted part worries me, you'd be giving up a lot for him

But looking at your avatar, we have the ability to draft guns with later picks and rookie selections. Maybe it's time to get some ready made players with our first round picks in the teens to beef up the midfield and overall playing list as the kids develop!

Two first rounders for a guy who's 27??? Yeh, nah

And highy, highly assumptive that f/s draftees will nominate us. Kalani White is by no means over the line

But we could get 15 McVee's with the picks we'd give up!

[DubDee 24,106]

he’d be looking for a big 4-5 year deal at his age. last big contract. and we’d have to give up plenty of picks. interested for sure but wary

[DeeZone 8,865]

I’d be more interested in trading for him if Harrison is dead set on getting to SA it shouldn’t matter Crows or Port.

The club already knows where Kalani is playing.

My bad, I thought he was 30.

Not sure where I got that number but I thought I heard it said he was.

Maybe go back and read my post again.

[Fritta and Turner 4,142]

Who?

[Adam The God 29,039]

Interesting that we're interested in another half back. If Petty was set on returning to SA and we got Houston and their first rounder, we could make the best of a bad situation.

Would rather keep Petty though.

We have, actually, in the context of this year's carnival. A bit underwhelming, it has seemed. I sometimes wonder if 'his footy' has been less about Kalani and more about Jeff...

i think he's a 16 year old very tall, very skinny kid who has already played 'up' in a very strong allies side

he's rated, clearly
