Or an overweight retired half forward flanker that kicked some big goals in a late season game in 2008.

Port - Dixon, Marshall, Ladhams (ruck) Bris - Hipwood, McStay (Danihar) McInerney (ruck) WCE - Kennedy, Darling, Allen (ruck) Rich - Lynch, Reiwoldt, and played 2 genuine ruckman most year Stk. King, Battle/membery, Ryder/marshall(ruck) I dont know Id reckon 2 talls and a third part ruck could work

SNAP DOUBLE SNAP I think that changes to 5th after round 5

so you dont know what the offers where then

and what was the Geelong offer $$ and how did that compare to Melb??

Jack broke more tackles this year than any other player in the comp FWIW

well Brisbane coaches seem to be going OK with an underwhelming group with VFL experience.?

whats the difference between our assistants and coll??

Who are Brisbane assistant coaches?? How many AFL games did they play along with Fagan???

Pretty sure Chip and Max have married sisters

List Management. When you have more than one thing you can trade one out. Player/s in contract stay. Out of contract player is traded. Draft pick in.

I've used pick 1 as en example which is 3000 points, i think the discount is 20%??

The WB need about 2400 points to get this kid. They currently have picks 12,36,48 equals 2072 point. If they trade Pruess and 23 for 12 they drop to 1619. I would also love to use Pruess to get hold of 12 from the WB but they arent doing it unless they have other trades to bring in more picks/points.

Yes but WB dont do the deal just for the fact they need draft points and with that deal they go backwards 600 points. It doesnt help them get Ugle-Hagan.

I like the deal but it doesn't give the WB more points it gives them 600 odd less

I dont disagree with any of that, but im not doing not doing Gus plus a first round pick. If it was just Gus for a draft pick what would you want back for him.

In what world is Merrett equal Gus and a 1st round pick. Id call them pretty level.

Seems to be out of Essendon. Is he South Australian bound or just out of the bombers. Has pace and skills. Can play small forward/high half forward or was also played half back with some success the last year or so.

I think hes originally from Sydney.

Recent years we have targeted specific areas and each time got what we wanted or so it seems. Lever, May, Langdon, Tomlinson. Williams and Saad also have what we want but we have never really been talked about as being in the hunt. Why is that? Have we been priced out of the game both times? Or do we have another target up our sleeve that hasn't been mentioned in the media yet and it hasn't come out. After the last few years I dont see us without a target this year and also a long way down the track with them, as per the above players that we acquired. But who? its a dream but why hasn't Cameron signed yet. Its the same with Viney but how many free agents get to this stage of the season and sign with there current club??

Pruess and 22 for Caldwell with maybe a 4th coming back also. Would basically be Frost and Pruess for a former pick 11 with 2 years development..

I dont think it changes anything. Hes contracted for 2 more years. if we dont get want we want he stays and we can still trade him next year when hell still be in contract. Its not like Ben Brown who is out of contract. Melb hold all the aces. All depends on how RUTHLESS we want to be.

We hold all the cards. Contracted for another 2 years. We should be getting overs or he stays.

You dont know that its just pure speculation. Who knows how much space we have.
