So ... You don't need to be Einstein to realise that Roos and his crew have an ace up their sleeve in regarding to the recent discussion about trading Jack Trengove. It is clear that they will be looking to on trade one or two of picks 12, 3, or 2 should this trade eventuate, given that Roos has said he doesn't want too many kids and is in need of midfield talent. I believe they have someone already sorted. Yes, trading JT for a kid goes against what he has said in recent discussions. So who is that player that they have targeted? Who is that Bernie Vince/Dom Tyson type import? I don't know but if I was a betting man I'd be putting money on the following: 1. D. Sheil (GWS) - trade ignited by GWS wanting to get back into the draft after losing picks for Griffen; 2. R. Sloane (AFC) - following heavy discussions with Adelaide over Danger, AFS may have offered Sloan instead knowing he is a risk to go next year as well; 3. T.Walker (AFC) - following heavy discussions with Adelaide over Danger, AFC may have offered Walker instead knowing he is a risk to go next year as well. 4. T. Mitchell (SFC) - Roos relationship. 5. Solid 2nd tier player from Port. Port may be looking for pick 12 to get Ryder. If I was to pick one, its Sloane. Thoughts? Anyone else on the horizon?

Suprised there isn't a thread on him already given in the TAC Future stars program he's been listed to go at pick 2 on a few occasions now in the rolling draft. http://www.afl.com.au/news/2013-07-05/phantom-draft-form-guide 182cm, 73kg outside running midfielder who's been listed on the AFL website at Pick 6. If one of Dunstan or Sheed are likely to slide to our 2nd round pick would people be happy with Kelly or do we prefer Aish? Anyone got anymore inside info on him if he'd be a good addition? Any chance his older brother may want to even come across and play some of his final seasons with him before retirement? Lets not forget James Kelly was taken at Pick 17 in his draft, a selection we held after getting it from Fremantle for Farmer before trading it to Geelong for Bizzle. Only justice that we have a Kelly on the list after all these years.

According to an article on the SEN app (should be on the website somewhere) Inside Football reports we are discussing a potential trade with GCS as Swallow wants to be near his brother. Watts plus pick 2 sounds like too much for mine. I get the feeling Watts would welcome the lesser spotlight, but we'd want to get another player or pick in that trade. In the same breath they have us offering pick 2 to Adelaide, preferring Brad Crouch in return, failing that Rory Sloane. The crows seem reticent to let to of either player, understandably. I imagine the club would be on the front foot in regards to trades, especially keen to come to an agreement prior to any potential announcement of priority picks. Otherwise the other clubs would be pushing for the inclusion of the priority pick in some way. Also the pick would have more value without the knowledge it was going to be bumped down 1 spot.
