I get where you're going. If one of the two 1st Rounders we get from Freo in a 2019 pick, then we'll have 2 picks that year to potentially trade for Kelly.

That's more then fair, and why you would need to look at the trade as a whole. If the trade ends up reading; IN: May, KK, Lockhart OUT: Garlett, Pick 6, Future 3rd Rounder (potentially pick 50'ish) It looks a pretty fair exchange to me as a whole.

Chris Yarran, Gary Rohan, Reece Conca, Caleb Marchbank, Sam Petrevski-Seton. One of those superstars? We're in Premiership window territory now. I'm more concerned about what improves us immediately as opposed to in 5 years. Don't forget, in order to get May this year, it needs to be a trade that entices Gold Coast to trade him now as opposed to holding onto him for 12 months. Pick 10 wont be enough for May.

Still think we'll end up with Pick 6 & a future first rounder. Pick 6 along with Garlett & future 3rd round pick gets us May, KK and rights to a VFL player (Lockhart). Gives us 2 first rounders the following year to either offer up for trade for Kelly or take to the draft.

My sources say otherwise. Plus when you consider the fact they have Marshall, Battle, McCartin all young key forwards (two of whom have shown an ability to ruck) I'd find it hard to believe they're into Max King. His brother would be more likely I would think.

Have it on good authority that the Saints are all over him. Wont be coming to MFC.

Which is why we'll trade the earliest of the two picks we get from Freo. Otherwise there's no benefit in it for them trading May this year. I reckon it'll be Pick 5, future 3rd Rounder & Garlett for May, KK and VFL player (Lockhart).

New 1 year deal. http://www.afl.com.au/news/2018-09-28/dee-kennedy-harris-earns-new-deal-after-strong-end-to-year

Pick 5 or 6, Garlett & future 3rd Round Pick for May, KK & rights to a VFL player (Lockhart please).

Declan Keilty came in 4th & James Munro rounded out the top 5. Couple of noticeable absentees last night from players who spent a lot of time at Casey this year were Tom Bugg, JKH & Jeff Garlett. They likely had good reason having said that.

Ummm the MFC. I would have thought that bits pretty obvious given the forum we're all on. If I had of posted this on a single mothers forum then I could understand clarification being required.

Corey Wagner this evening has taken out the Casey B&F with Jay Lockhart runner up and Cameron Pedersen in 3rd place. More to follow.....

Tim Smith has also been offered and accepted a 3rd year on the rookie list.

Declan Keilty has been offered. And accepted. A 3rd year on the rookie list.

Big Footy. I know, I know......

Yes, but unlike North, we don't have the coin to blow West Coast out of the water re matching. Only chance we have to get Gaff is by trade.

We've allegedly asked for permission to trade our 2019 first round pick. Means we must have something big lined up (could still be Gaff).

Officially on the market. http://www.afl.com.au/news/2018-09-26/lions-utility-open-to-exploring-other-options

Melbourne: Kent to Saints & Pick 48 to North St Kilda: Lonie to North & Pick 57 to Melbourne North Melbourne: Preuss to Melbourne & Pick 64 to St Kilda Melbourne gain Preuss & 57 for Kent & 48 St Kilda gain Kent & 64 for Lonie & 57 North Melbourne gain Lonie & 48 for Preuss & 64

While in theory I like your line of thinking, with the abolishment of the D-League, you can't have too many specialist rucks on your list, as you'll run out of places to play them. I think Gawn in the seniors, Preuss at Casey with Bradtke playing off the bench/resting forward and helping out in the ruck is about it as far as our specialist rucks will go. Otherwise expect additional ruck support to come from Weideman, Tom McDonald & Keilty.

May just be Burswood Oval. Have to say that while it's an aesthetically good looking ground, it's pumped up way too much. Poorly signed & maned aisles and limited room around the concourse. Give me the MCG anyday.

You're an !《!0+

I thought they stopped playing games at Optus Oval (Princess Park) back in 2005???

You may be onto something here. A potential cheap replacement for Salem off half back could be Pittard from Port?

FB: Hibberd, Frost, Jetta HB: Hunt, Lever, Lewis C : T. McDonald*, Brayshaw, Harmes HF: Petracca, Hogan*, Melksham FF: Hannan, Weideman, Spargo FOLL: Gawn, Oliver, Viney INT: Fritsch, Jones, Neal-Bullen, Salem *Note that both these two I expect to rotate forward & through the midfield in order to allow us to play three tall forwards. Depth: VANDENBERG (unlucky not to be in my 22, but main victim of fitting in 3 tall forwards), TYSON (only to play as an inside mid), JOEL SMITH (mid sized defender), O. MCDONALD (tall defender), STRETCH (outside mid), KENNEDY-HARRIS/KENT (small fwd/wing), WAGNER (half back), KEILTY (tall utility Pedersen role). Draft Lockhart and some other good outside user types. Recruit a 2nd ruck, trade out Garlett, entertain offers for Tyson. Make Viney sole captain and make a big push for Kelly in the 2019 trade period. That just about covers it all I think....
