apperently it was on the radio that dean bailey was lookin to trade for brad symes?

thoughts

i have huge wraps on this guy. not given a go at port and if we could snap him up i would be very very happy!

Would be a great pickup

He would know Dean well, and Dean would know him well

heres hoping

Similar height to what ward was , he is 187 and ward was 185. So maybe he could be bring that run that ward did but instead he has good decision making skills.

I'll take him for a 3rd rounder.

Was very good end 2006 and then disappeared 2007. All part of DB plans.

Stuff Adelaide. Meesan can come PSD.

Port might want a second round pick and I'd consider giving it to them. A hard running defender who meets DB criteria (under 23). Get him!

My dream trade week:

Pick 21 to Port Adelaide for Brad Symes

Pick 37 to Adelaide for John Meesen

Pick 53 to West Coast for Ben McKinley

Travis Johnstone and Brad Miller to Sydney for picks 11 and 44

Leaving us with picks...

4, 11, 44, 69, 85

I can dream.

well if we could get ben mckinley and brad symes. two players that could use a fresh start and i would be a happy man

We need to get Meesen first...before we can start delving into other deals

Mckinley or Symesare only realistic chances..altho we have Miller and Johnstone and Carroll to give off...altho something now tells me, as much as i want to trade Miller...Bailey has seen his potential and can hopefully transform him into a Barry Hall....

alot of similarities....big engine, good grab on the lead..pushes up...

only thing is he

doesnt kick goals like hall

cant kick like hall

doesnt wheel around after the mark and then kick, he handballs

Which means he is NOTHING like hall haha.

I like it

Make it happen, or I will kill you

gouga's scenario was perfect!! id get rid of miller for anything! at least this way well be doing something in trade week for once!

haha yeah

anyone got any updates on trade regarding Melbourne...i hope the Meesen deal gets dones sooner, the sooner the quicker we can move onto another deal i.e trav, chopper, carroll.

Brad Symes is a good enough player, but pick 21?? Come on guys! We got Byron pickett for pick 28. Surely he isn't in the same ballpark as byron.

Port are interested in Mcmahon from the doggies, so trading symes would make sense. 3rd rounder or later for Symes, and pick up meeson via the PSD.

Keep pick 21.

As for miller and Trapper, for pick 11 and 44, that would be tempting!

Good call on Symes guys, good to know he has some love (but not for pick 21!)

Brad Symes would be a great addition to the team however according to the South Australian news he is set to discuss his future in the next couple of days with the Adelaide Crows. At a guess Adelaide may be using the draft picks they have received from Sydney and/or the Bulldogs to make a trade with their cross town rivals.
