Tom Basso– ‏@TheTomBasso @AFLTradeWhisper any news on Karl Amon? Rumour is he wants to leave. Thanks. 13h AFL Trade Whisperer ‏@AFLTradeWhisper He's on the table. Saints and Dees have inquired. https:// atus/783799362723848192

Will be interesting to see where he sits in Goodwin's pecking order.

Doubt it. I think Brisbane have cooled on Dunn and are red hot into Frost!

And they get it! AFL hypocrisy of the highest order!

We really need to draft Darcy Cameron as a mature age player in the draft. May need to bite the bullett and use our first pick to ensure we land him. He's exactly what we need.

Choo Choo!

An important part of our midfield group. Should have another solid 8 years ahead!

Best big man in the comp, but we still need to give him some proper support.

Best of luck for the future Dunny. I'll remember him as a player who got the most out of himself with a thumping kick and the ability to get under the oppositions skin, Will also also remember his debut on a Friday Night in the wet in 2006 with Neitz & Miller out of the side, Dunn came in and kicked 2 in an impressive debut.

Better yet, Col Garland & Pick 62 for Tom Downie & Aidan Corr?

According to the below from the AFL website, we may not get Clarke either: Ruckman Zac Clarke appears more and more likely to turn his back on free agency and play on with Fremantle despite rival interest. Clarke and the Dockers have yet to work out the terms of a new deal, but the 26-year-old has a great opportunity over the next few years to establish himself as Freo's No.1 ruckman once club great Aaron Sandilands retires. Clarke's manager, Jason Dover of Stride Sports, told NAB AFL Trade Radio his client would decide his football future in the next couple of days after a "very positive" exit interview with the club on Tuesday.

Which rookies are we upgrading to play the 2nd Ruck/Forward role?

You have our attention?

Personally i think he's a better option then all of them as he has much more scope to improve. Problem is there's no way of ensuring we get him. Just becomes a lucky dip in the draft.

Weid needs at least another season at Casey and should only play when either Hogan or Watts are missing or when he's banged the door down.

I think it impacts it severely. They have young tall backs they'll want to get games into. Gardiner, Andrew, Hipwood, Paparone & Cuttler spend some time back and Sam Skinner coming off his knee reco. Dunn may need to look at an option like Port instead to replace Carlisle. Otherwise he'll likely be holding down full back at Casey.

Fair comment. He had a lot of injuries at Hawthorn and when he did finally get free of injuries, McEvoy & Hale didn't miss to many games, plus Ceglar was also there. Having said that in the one game he did play, he booted 3 goals. At Adelaide Jacobs & Jenkins have been a hard combo to dislodge, yet he still kicked over 20 goals in the SANFL. If the club was to recruit Vickery, I'm not about to go and drive a dump truck of manure to AAMI Park or anything, but I don't see his ruck work being any better then Dawes. Lowden or Zac Clarke or Shaun McKernan I see as being players that can ruck at least as well if not better then Spencer can now, but also compete better then Spencer forward. I'd have Vickery on about par with Andrejis Everritt as simply forwards who can pinch hit ruck as they're more expendable then Watts.

Billy Longer and the forward line is a marriage that will end poorly. Also St Kilda would want a 2nd round pick for him minimum. They probably initially ask for a 1st Round Pick.

Cheers LH. Nowhere near as Angry as I was about 4 years ago under the previous regime. Since then though I changed my user name to what it is now and am a little older with kids, so the anger is redirected and generally softened with the consumption of an amber liquid. Live about a 200m walk from Casey Fields which allows me to get to a lot of games there, and should give credit to my beautiful wife who is happy to mind the young kids while I watch the games. Having said that, as a St Kilda supporter she does have a lot to make up for. But yes a special thanks to the mods, administrators and KC at Casey for all their hard work and to all our unique posters who help make Demonland what it is.

Gus will be back better then ever in 2017. Looking forward to big years from both he and Salem.

Goes without saying, but 2017 will be make or break for Trenners. Really hope he can re-establish himself within the team.

His best is good enough, as he showed at stages in 2013 & 2014. But your entitled to think that if you like.

I reckon both Freo & Hawthorn would be decent fits for him.

Fair enough. Part of the reason why I think the odds of us taking Zac Clarke have probably firmed even though he hasn't really proved himself as a forward.

I really hope we draft Cameron, but suspect there will be a few clubs into him at the national draft.
