Offer prestia 600k a year to come and play for the club he supported as a kid in front of his family in vic It would be hard to prize anyone out of the suns but he's too good not to try

I reckon Whitfield and treloar

Who is the best up and coming mid in the comp? A few come to mind Omeara Wines Viney Tyson Mcrae Aish Bontempelli Kelly Whitfield Treloar Sheil Prestia

What significance does the players joining in have?

Still better than Dan Nicholson haha rookie prospect?

Gary Lyon tore him to shreds and now roosy, I wonder what's bought this on

Who offered 6 years?

i was speaking to my nephew today who is a big dons fan and i said don't rule out Saint Sheedy coming back to try and get them back up and running after they are destroyed by their own stupidity

This is an interesting point you make, so many on here not happy with Toumps progress but watch Roos on AFL 360, he talks about the really good up and coming mids we have and the three he highlights are Tyson, Viney and Toump, Roosy obviously rates him, i still think he can be a really good player, and i reckon Roosy will turn Trenners into our best mid by the end of next year

the thing about Petracca in particular is he is a more than dangerous forward as well as mid, he is an absolute game breaker, and Brayshaw is going to give us the same thing every week for the next 10 years, alot like Nathan Jones i just don't think o'rourke or even someone like Coniglio offers as much as those, i'd give up Brayshaw for Shiel or Treloar but that's about it

screams of desperation to me

One thing i have loved since having Roosy on board is the Systematic approach to our revival, our first task was to get competitive, we now average 40 less points against and have a finals standard defence, next was being able to win games, we have won 4, and probably been in a position to win another 6, next is to eliminate the costly errors which we have to work on but the direction is obvious and it shows we are not far off at all, we could easily have 10 wins and be in the top 8, maybe we wouldn't deserve it for not beating top teams all the time but that's not the point. and while all this is happening each player has improved at least 15% in my mind, Dunn has gone from an ok player to potentially All Australian, Jetta has gone from delisted to a solid best 22 player shutting down dangerous forwards, Watts looks better, Howe looks better, Dom Tyson and Bernie Vince would be causing all sorts of regrets for their old clubs so while not winning on the weekend sucks we are in a much better position, i reckon 2015 will see us leapfrog some teams

I'm in the don't trade picks 3/4 camp pick up Brayshaw and Petracca trade our second rounder for Tommlinson grab Stretch with our third rounder grab a couple of delisted free agents, i still think Ryan Okeefe would be handy on a forward flank for us maybe we could try and get Jack Hanneth back from freo

I know what you mean Bb but it seems right now they only thing going for them is sympathy of the public, If ASADA played their hand with some of their evidence they could crush all public support and get people wanting them punished and labelling them as cheats

ASADA should play their hand imo, that way even if the bombers get off on a technicality they won't shake the cheaters tag

I reckon you are right, going to be right up the top for a few years, have money, Bluey is a huge fan of chip

Odds on where chip will end up in order based on my opinion/guess 1.hawthorn 2.Fremantle 3.Geelong 4.gold coast 5.mfc 6.Carlton 7.Richmond 8.gws

Gah Gary talk him up, we want better compo if he leaves

David Mackay, still ooc, free agent, vic boy, Dees supporter, pace and line breaking ability

Lamashtu, will be interesting to see if anyone above our second rounder bids, I reckon we will get him for a third rounder

Is clisby worth hanging onto?

Stretch can win his own ball and is good in traffic, I see him becoming a very complete player when he puts on some size

he needs to realise we can't do that, we have teeth, and jobs.

Eddie has no interest in equalisation.

Stephen hill, Danyle Pierce, Issac Smith, Stephen Motlop, Brad Hill, Mathew Suckling are just a few examples of outside players of serious quality, the problem with having all big bodied inside mids is the teams with half a brain or a balance of inside or outside will absolutely destroy you on the outside with pace and skill, we need a balance or we won't get near a flag, we have Nathan Jones, Dom Tyson, Jack Viney, Daniel Cross and Bernie Vince who are capable of winning the inside ball, but they aren't quick with the exception of maybe Bernie
