Little Richard

He's a selfish player, a sniper and plays for free kicks. That's enough for me to know that I don't want him at the MFC. Goes without saying, but it's not up to me. That's my opinion though.

If I see Steve Johnson in the red and blue next season, that will be the final straw for me. Absolute [censored] and is nowhere near as good as he once was.

Plowman actually sounds like a similar player to the young Rivers. Apart from the foot skills.

Has been mentioned and I was keen on him earlier on. Arguably the best kick in the league. But someone made a very good point that he is probably the kind of player who looks much better in a very good side. Thinking about that, I don't think he'd be a good fit for us at the moment.

I have to agree. In the past, there were a number of players I was attached to and hoped we wouldn't trade. Now there are only two or three that I'd be disappointed about losing. Anyone else can go, for the right deal and for the better of the side as a whole.

My thoughts indeed. Seems as though every player who apparently wants out is going down there. Will be interesting to see who actually does end up there, because if they all do (as per media speculation), surely Geelong will be pushing for top 4 again in 2016.

Make an offer to the blues for Henderson, would be a fantastic get and with Hogan would make a dangerous pair up forward.

Unfortunately Dawes is a bulldozer, but most of the time he just doesn't mark.

Sounds like a Roos-type recruit. I've always liked how he's gone about it and I didn't even realise he wasn't getting a game. Maybe snare him with a second/third rounder.

I think we need to at least trade one in, but also draft/rookie a late prospect for the future. Spencer is just not good enough and Jamar doesn't have a place anymore. If those two go it leaves us fairly exposed to injuries or poor form.

I think we only received the offer with about 15 minutes left, so you can understand why it didn't happen. Still, I wish we'd have said yes. We won't get another deal like that for him.

I still think we can get a reasonable offer for him. Despite all the talk of players walking out to the draft, it rarely happens. Plus, we could get screwed over if he were to be a FA... his worth might be deemed quite low. I just wish we'd taken the offer of pick 7 for him last trade period.

I would love to have Zaharakis in our midfield. Carlisle wouldn't be too bad, but obviously there's a cloud over him. Why aren't you keen on Zaharakis?

Imagine if we had two Tom Lynch's... how would the commentators and supporters handle it? We'd have to resort to the old, 'Go, number 40!'.

Was it that Tom Lynch that kicked 9 or 10 in a match?

I'd rather keep our first pick to potentially wrangle one of these young guns from up north. Motlop shouldn't be our main priority IMO, but he would be a very good addition.

He's become far more of a 'project' than I'd hoped. I had really high expectations for him this season and he couldn't even cement a place in the 22. His future is far from certain, I think.

I will eat my rather large humble pie and admit that I didn't realise he only recently started playing in the middle. Still, I don't think he can play a similar role to Howe up forward - they're very different types of players.

Yet again, Petracca is not a forward. He is a midfielder.

Don't mind that though, you never know what we're planning. The Tyson trade came out of nowhere, so something like that could happen again this season. Fingers crossed.

You would hope so. If Max left, we'd be well and truly bent over in the ruck division.

Before you get howled down, McDonald and our first rounder for Treloar and Prestia? Edit: I'd rather we kept McDonald, but it's an interesting scenario. Edit 2: Obviously would be separate trades.

That is true Deeluded, and apparent in players like Hannebery who came from Xavs. It's more about the kind of player we were going for - choir boys, who for the most part seemed to come from the private school system. And that was clearly a massive fail in the arse, when we ignored players like Darling and Martin.

I don't think Davey was soft at all. He had brain fades at times, but didn't stand out as soft to me. Was a quality player. Edit: Was a quality player, most of the time.

Oh okay. Well I'm sure there have been plenty doing that recently.
