Pennant St Dee

Good to see some more experience in the strength, conditioning and medical side of the FD. Well done to JM continuing to go about his business But the lunatic fringe still want him gone because he was around for 186

Believe there may be issues between Martin and May adding to the mix

I'm hoping they are at the G as I'll be back for that week

Anzac Eve and can't see them making us travel the week before

I do like Kemp AF as you know, but very keen to get in one of Young and Stephens

Nup, one expected to go top 6 may slide and be available at 8. Take the best available

Stuart Anderson, who Freo recruited after the 96 Flag thinking he would bring some experience All he brought was a lack of work ethic and exposure to how limited his ability was when not surrounded by stars

My thoughts exactly on Kemp, Stephens, Robertson or who we take

Thanks for your efforts boys and all the best post Dees

Yep, love to come away with Young and Kemp/Stephens

Sydney will nominate Green, no question about it I think Adelaide will take Stephens and Freo will take Jackson Not sure who Sydney will take possibly Kemp as a big bodied mid to replace Kennedy I'd take Young at 3 and Kemp if available at 8. By bidding for Green we will ensure one Kemp, Ash, Serong or Flanders available at pick 8

Pretty much my thoughts

Ex Tiger OD, whose playing in the SANFL with Glenelg. Key Forward. Although I believe we are showing some interest in and have interviewed Ben Sokol from Subiaco. Another forward OD but not that tall, more of a medium size. Kicked 60 in the WAFL this season

We only missed out on Elliott who we were after but didn't offer him a mega deal. On face value a B+ for me. Improved our list but what we do with 3 & 8 and how those players are performing in 3 to 4 years determines how we fared in this trade period

I'll tell you why it's a salary issue, he's reportedly looking for $650-700k per season. What has he done to earn that, nothing but potential and he's not a ball winning mid or key position player. It sets a bad precedent paying overs for a player who's not fully committed to the club Trac, Fritsch and Harmesy are all up for renewal next year. What do you say to them. I maintain my stance, chase him by all means but don't be negligent. If Blues want to throw coin at him he hasn't earned so be it

Yes see my post 262

If it were my choice Pick 3 after the Green Bid Hayden Young - like his penetrating kick, could be very valuable in transition Pick 8 - Brodie Kemp has so much versatility and despite the knee injury I would take the punt on him.

if they are only moving 2 places up the (10 for 8)draft we'd need to trade the 2020 second rounder we acquired for their 2020 first round selection

Liam Mcbean?

Why would you draft a player who doesn't want to play for you and he's already shown he doesn't perform in an environment where he's not happy. I'm all for us trying at the right price, get Nev and Flash to meet and chat with him. If he's still adamant he doesn't want to come then don't take him

Whilst the injury was after we drafhim Petracce recovered quite well from his ACL We are drafting him for 10 to 15 years if we decide to do so

Manager just on SEN advised Melbourne have been in contact with him and he advised Melbourne Jack was focused on joining Carlton

Yes agree with the salary issue and I don't expect the FD to be negligent in any offer to Martin, who despite his obvious potential has shown little consistency or desire to get the best out of himself

No doubt we will speak to him and do what we can. I don't think we'll be negligent to our cap with an offer. If we don't select him there will be a decent reason eg: price

Yep my mistake hadn't realised I typed 2nd. I meant 1st and I'd rather take 2 picks this year in the top 10. Since only picks can be traded now and not players I'm not doing the trade unless we know nobody will take who we want before pick 6
