After hearing what was said yesterday on the radio, I reckon it's Swallow who is the one that we might trade pick 2 for. I could be making a Gaff, but Swallow fits criteria.
-
I'd b. happy with if it was Jamar nt Fitzy.
-
I'd rather target players that don't have 2 surnames anyway.

So apart from Zac Jones, we'd be recruiting recycled players. Ellis has been around for zonks and hasn't performed. I'd trde Jamar, but I want an injection of quality youth esp as we have pick 2. I'd also look at Dale Garlett as a 2nd/3rd round pick.

Let's hope Jamar wants 2 go back 2 SA.

2013 Player Review - # 21 Cam Pedersen
samcantstandya replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
It's a shame we gave him 3 yrs I remember when his name was mentioned during trade wk I was cringing at the thought of recruiting more 2nd raters when we need quality hen we need quality. I felt the same abt Bryne. Gillies...... -
I hate Hawthorn I wish we were as strong as the. though

Why go for 2 B grade mids instead of one A grade - very short sighted prefer Aish. -
2013 Player Review - # 21 Cam Pedersen
samcantstandya replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
He is an inbetweener, he is all of what you have said and I think he has no tank or thirst for a contest. At this stage he's along for the ride and should be delisted at the end of his contract unless he puts his finger out. -
That would be sad if we missed out on a good young kid who could be a 10 yr player for Cross for 1 or 2

2013 Player Review - # 17 Sam Blease
samcantstandya replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
He takes the game on and is not inhibited like most on our list. He's got speed and we must develop his endurance. I thought that was why we had Mission. If we can't then the training programs are flawed. However he must run both ways and be smart and time runs...For me he gets another yr to see what he can be, I reckon he will be a weapon. -
2013 Player Review - # 10 Shannon Byrnes
samcantstandya replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
I wasn't happy when they recruited him,or Pedersen and Gillies for that matter. Rodan for a yr I thought was ok. Wish they never gave him 2 yrs or Pedersen 3. Hopefully they won't renew contract. Tired of being a retirement home for NQR's. -
I wouldn't trade Howe anywhere, they can have Jamar we don't need him anyway. But to suggest the one player who makes going to the footy worthwhile as part of a package doesn't make sense. We want to get young kids following us, at least if we are not winning games potential supporters might follow us if we have players like Howe that are exciting to watch and emulate.

I'd like to see Blease on one wing and Watts on the other.
-
Agree 100%.
-
Ditto. We've had our fair share of spuds. We still have a few to prune hopefully. My theory if they have poor disposal under pressure then don't persist with them because they are good trainers eg Nicholson
-
Yes. Make it happen.
-
This is the very attitude that has prevented us from success. Martin Pike was traded out and went on 2 win I think 4 premierships with North & Bris. I have faith that someone like Flash & Roos can turn Dale Garlett from a rough diamond in2 a gem of a crumbing forward/midfield option. Hopefully we get him at 19 or later if there's no interest.
-
I'd rather get him for nothing in PSD. We have pick 2 after them. I'd offer big bucks as mooted upfront then staggered 2 scare them off.

I'd be rapt if we netted Garlett. He'd be that small forward that Byrne can't be - a potential match winner.

2012 Delistings - the right choices

I think long term everyone will be happy we went for the steak knives of Barry & Hogan -
He could be our best recruit 2014.
