just wondering what pies fans think of these two players:

Bizzell: although he is on a bit of cash and like a few of his teammates holding the dees to ransom, do you think he could slip into our backline....especially if we trade Presti for some reason....or we could trade presti for him? he is smallish for a key defensive player but i like the way he goes about it. one problem is he is a couple of years older than presti already so we take a step backwards in that regard, but he is a player who adds a bit more flair to the backline

Graham: i would view graham as purely a 'third tall' type player but also someone who could slot in and with clement be the general of the backline for two seasons or whatever he has left in him....would be a bargain pick up if we trade as it wouldnt take a great deal to get him, or could use a late draft pick if no-one else wants him? i would only look at graham if presti leaves however, if presti is kept, then graham would struggle to get a game


im only putting these forward as a hypothetical situation, not saying we should definitely go for these guys....just wondering what the general consensus is amongst pies fans?

Trade for them? No way.

PSD all the way.

Bizzell: Would be far too expensive in a trade, but is a very solid footballer. Overrated, but very good all the same.

Graham: Can be utterly disgraceful, and would only consider him in the PSD if we lost Presti, so Tex doesn't get thrown into the deep end.

would bizzell slip to 4 in PSD? spose it depends on what richmond, hawks and bullies want after trades and draft....
whats our history in PSD? i remember mullins, obree and cameron venables in the PSD but i suppose it depends on the year as to whether there is any talent to choose from anyway

yeah i was viewing graham as purely a backup in case we lost presti

Bizell is good. I would like him. The other bloke, well it must go with the name. Ben, Mark - DUDS! Clement is so far better tan Mark Graham it isn't funny. Nick Maxwell is so far a better option for the future it isn't funny.

We need to get serious top end quality onto our list. Bizell is close to that. Graham was born on another continent and it has drifted away since.

I doubt Freo would trade Parker. He is very highly rated over there.

Bizzell's way too expensive. And he had an injury riddled 2004.

Graham would be cheap and would be a handy player in defence for us for a year or so , but only if we got him fourth round or PSD. No way I'd trade for him.

bizzell is better but will cost you more in trade wise and contract
