I love the idea of us aquiring Preuss. Our midfield could be coming into a decade of dominance and our season would be derailed with the current back up ruck stocks we have after Max. I'd be willing to pay the bloke huge overs to sit down at Casey and be the raininy day rainbow should big Max suffer and injury next year. The benefit to Casey and the developement of our midfield brigade at Casey would be so beneficial.

For what its worth - Viney on Inside Melbourne gave Hannan a huge endorsment and I think he is alock to be named this afternoon.

Pick 5 from Freo plus Brisbanes pick 4 as a result of the Neale trade for Hogan....Something to seriously consider. We could then keep a first round pick for this "Superdraft" who by all accounts the top 5 are brilliant and trade the second 1st rounder to any of the clubs holding the dynamic , goal kicking , speedy midfielder we are so desperate for. Im a Hogan fan and don't think it should /will happen but it will defietely be considered IMO. Doubely so if the Weed has a great finals campaine - by god I hope he does.

Tyson is the slowest player in a relatively very slow midfield. Has poor skills ATM due to a lack of confindense at the top level. Rest assured he will be caught holding the ball at least twice tomorrow. both parties should be looking to move him on next year.

if I was looking for an outside mid Aaron Hall would be near the top of my list - sure he may have a few issues but by all accounts not happy and or overly welcome at GC could come cheep compared to Gaff. Has elite kicking skills and goals sence , i dont give a crap if he dosnt tackle as we have inside mids in spades. GC will be looking for anybody to get up there so id be packaging up Tyson , Kennedy Harris , Bugg

Is Toumpas still on their list ?

I may have my factswrong here , but was it not Balic's family who didn't want him to go west and offered to pay him to stay at home and opt out of the draft ? https://www.reddit.com/r/AFL/comments/3uazdz/harley_balics_parents_offer_him_70000_to_stay_in/

His kicking is diboloical - 9 kicks on Monday - 7 clangers from those kicks and 1 kick that was'nt counted as clanger as a relayed free kick was paid - that kick went straight to Richmind but Harmes got the down field. At the moment he is aliability with ball in hand and needs a long break IMO.

If we do land Hibbard & Melksham buy all accounts is being touted as a Half back Flanker. Where does that leave Salem ? Jetta , Frost , Hunt Melksham Tmac Hibbard

HL will be spotted next week in Rio. Grimes is no chance to stay as he will seek better opertunity elsewhere.

His Leg injury would be a massive concern as it originaly it was not a clean break laterally. My understanding is that a splinter break up the leg has the potential to keep fracuring along the break line as seems to have happened in this case. Rumours over here have been running strong that the playing group are "off him" a bit and as a group had to stand in to ensure that there votes were heard in the captaincy bid and evnetual Mundy appointment. If i was to have a bet - id say he is keen to leave and head to the football state of Victoria. He understands the buisness of football and knows that his window for a premiership at freo is fast dissapearing.

Jenkins is out contract at years end and someone who I think we should be having a huge play at. Thoughts?
