Bell & our 3rd round pick for Thomson and Ports 2nd round pick Bell in a straight swap for Reilly If Bell can regain his 2007 form - I would be happy to keep him Chuck Carroll into any deal for nothing and offer to pay half his salary - more of a dampener than a sweetener though!

Have you seen him play? Kick? Godders is capable of hitting targets at VFL level, Tenace isn't

I've seen Tenace play quite a bit at AFL and VFL. Yes he's fast! BUT: He cant kick (Godders is a better kick), he is outside and needs space to function. Get over him - he's a dud

Tenace cant kick to save himself. NO THANKS

Which is why he is so far ahead of schedule with his recovery right?

Pavlich x 2?

4. Valenti/White?

A big thank you to BBR. Your reports were eagerly awaited and greatly appreciated. All the best for Sandy next year - I'm going to find it hard to toss them for Casey (whoever they are). Thanks also to Ice Station Zebra and other reporters. Cheers! Just musing whether Lovell will cross over to Casey?

I think Dutchy will find himself in our midget forward line, ruck duels and all!

Why have they got black numbers?

Dear dear, I stand corrected. The MFC can token trade to try and find then a home a la Peter Walsh and Stephen King. Now that every AFL club knows they will not be on the list, they are hardly going to offer anything other than circa pick 95 (which we would not use) when they can pick them up for nowt in the PSD! Ie they have zero trade value. Having said that - best of luck to both of them!

Pick 35 and CJ to Freo for Warnock Prismall in the PSD or Alwyn Davey at a pinch

Incorrect - you cant trade delisted players. Both have indicated they will nominate for the draft!

Garland daylight

I'll think you'll find Fox was deciding between GC17 and MFC. Now that Schwab is now out of the picture, I hope he takes it on (monumental challenges and all)

Just announced on Ch. 10! Wow Good on him. I would hate to see him disappear from the game.

It's right up there with my next Shannon Knoll purchase!

Would like to see the doggies win it if push comes to shove. Cats have had their day in the sun (unfortunately will have it again). Hawks have that foot in mouth, stain - Kennett associated with them. If Collingwood gets a vote, the poster should be banned for life. North have the shadow of Wayne Carey hovering and kicking them in the shinboner spirit. Sydney can wait another 70 years - penance for [censored] boring flood footy! Adelaide can get their next flag in 140 years for the same reason. I wouldn't mind seeing the Saints get there but it would mean facing their pathetic supporters, tripping for 364 days. They need to get back to the important things in life - like litigation. Brisbane - lost interest when J Brown didn't sign up to the Dee's for the minimum (plus endorsements - yeah!). Hate the rest and hope for an early Christmas present in bye bye Wallet! Then again, we are better served with him at the helm and demanding they pick more pacey, outside smalls - Go Terry!

I commend you - a tough gig!

Playing a game in Canberra is not neutral - we are there purely to spread the Sydney F.C gospel

Sandy not playing

In your earlier post you said he supported Szondy not Gutnick - which is it?

Wouldn't last a quarter!

Out: Wheatley (if injured) Bell In: Whelan Sylvia PJ - stiff Morton just had a week off

This is quite confusing but as far as I can tell - the deal to train there until until our new home is ready was pretty much over the line (and probably still is). But, that deal was using Casey / Council owned land and facilities. The (assetless) MFC now want to invest and own facilities for their permanent summer training base and full time training base until the olympic park stadium is ready. Risky and means a permanent summer training facility in the boonies. I suppose they have to jump in from the start and take a risk if thats there push for assets
