Redleg

If Treloar leaves it will be for a song to the buyer. Pies have stuffed this up big time. They have no negotiating power in this deal at all. None. Do a deal or pay him and keep a player you don’t want, who has been totally disrespected.

If we are interested, then this.

Roses are red, Violets are blue, Know who we want, Not telling you.

Does sound like buyer beware.

Agree. Fritta may benefit with a few more chances as a result of this.

No one in mind, just a feeling that there is someone we are talking to who hasn't been mentioned. We are far more professional these days in that area.

I have the feeling we have a surprise up our sleeves, that will be revealed when the deal is done.

I could live with McKernan for a year as insurance for Max. He can also play forward and possibly even down back if one of Lever or May got injured. He would provide some protection for LJ for a year and is a FA and would not hurt the salary cap. Would also help out Bradtke at Casey. Lastly, he will be better than our last pick in the draft. An understandable move if he comes to us.

Definitely

No he just moves half a step to the right, shortens the run up by seven steps, holds the ball eight inches lower and blinks as his foot makes contact with the ball. Simple really. Sorry LH just bored atm.

Dockers now going hard for Clark. I wish we were too.

But couldn’t Saints now walk away, leaving him at Crows on matched salary, or being traded to another club. It is still their choice to trade or walk away.

If that’s true, then they need a key back badly. Actually they needed another this year. Tom and Oscar could be useful to them and Tom also at the Bombers as Hurley might leave and is nearly done. The Giants also need A key back and even the Crows with Hartigan leaving. In summary their should be a few clubs interested in Tom.

Would be surprised if he went across the other side of the country, being a local boy, unless there are no other offers.

Think he will find a new home.

You know I always am.

Bennell, Dunkley, Wagner x 2, Hannan, Preuss, Macs x 2, VDB and ANB? That is 10 players possibly gone, with maybe another 1-2 added. At this stage it looks like only BB is likely. Rest assured we won’t be going to a draft with 9 late picks. We clearly are involved in other trades and our new cone of silence might be annoying to news hungry fans, but it has been an improvement on the past, in terms of successfully getting players in.

Don’t think that article rules out Phillips or any other outside mid.

We must be after other players than just BB, as there is no way with the players rumoured as leaving, we will look to replace them all with late draft picked youngsters. I think we will trade in a minimum of 3-4 players.

No, he will now have to be traded, so no compo pick involved.

Would need an early pick and hope he is available then. Lot of ifs.

We need to get Tom to GWS with Preuss, to get in on the action.

Get him please Dees. AFL trade rumour that Tom might go to GWS. If that happens we could get involved in the Cameron deal, with Preuss and Tom, to trade for Clark. 20 year old with pace and coming from a strong club. Would be a great get IMO.

No exceptions here. Thrash thine self as penance.

And the GWS list manager says they are not interested in Tom. Love this time of year.
