Recruiting Targets Summary

[Smartys Power]

GWS cannot possibly expect to keep all of Boyd, Cameron, Patton, Tomlinson, Stewart and McCarthy, and promise them games. Two of them have to be on the market or open to offers this trade period, even with Patton's injury. We ought to be a desirable destination for a young, developing tall forward.
Cameron please.

I'm still hanging onto that Cameron wish.

 

[Jim Dixon]

I'm still hanging onto that Cameron wish.

Yeah nah. He'd cost a fortune, not at all sure I'd be willing to pay what it would take.

Redden, Shaw, Harvey + 3 2014 draft big guys should be enough depth and development players to back up Schulz and Lobbe.

Dont mind the look of Stanley watching the crows game.
Very agile for a big BIG man

 

[RossFC]

Greenwood to Port rumours....Ah it must be September.

Must admit that I'm coming around to him. Much improved this year.

You have to remember he is acting as their 2nd tall. He'd be our 3rd tall/fwd ruck for us. (Easier role, bigger impact on the game)

 

[Adz2332]

id give up our first for him with there second

Perhaps he will be part of the trade that gets Tex Walker to the Saints.

(Paddycat and Texta are both RFA next near, should be fun to watch)

 

[PAFC_1870]

Greenwood to Port rumours....Ah it must be September.

Atleast he's playing well now...

This Hoskin Elliott who kicked 5 for GWS on the weekend
Was he the guy many posters on here wanted us to draft?

Yes, me being one of them. Never thought Wingod would drop to us at the time, but so glad he did.

Yeah so am i it was one of our better drafting performances

Anybody interested in Jordan Lisle? Cut by Brisbane today 196cms 95 kgs 25 year old who spent time developing at both the lions and hawks takes a lot of marks but has low tackle numbers

He's a spud.

 

[Holden Hillbilly]

All Brisbane players cut are spuds.

Does that make them chips?

How about this then, Would you trade our first round pick for gorringe and their first round compo pick (can we do that)? At best we can get a slider if we keep our pick; ahern de goey Goddard duggan or laverde so far. If we go through with the trade then Ellis Duggan Marchbank or Blakely look likely

 

[Hong-Kong Phooey]

why would they do that? they may consider it if we also swap out second for their third

I'd do that deal, not sure they would unless there's a player they don't think will last to that pick though. It all depends on how much they value Gorringe but that'd be a pretty fair deal for Gorringe's current value.

 

[Powerage]

he has shown zero as a forward though.

that's not to say he cannot become a ruck who is handy up forward , but he has not shown any aptitude for it to date. has size and athleticism so he has the potential to develop that way, if he has the head/ or develops the nous to play that position.

if you were signing him you would be signing him on what he showed as a junior ruckman , and his athletic attributes.

After 20 games, 10 in his two injury plagued years, 10 in his injury free years mostly spent in the ruck, what opportunity has he had to show anything as a forward? Lade had shown nothing as a forward when he had just turned 22 either.

No. 1 Recruiting Rule: Any player caught dressing up as a girl on MM gets a flick.
No. 2 Recruiting Rule: Any player caught being photographed on MM next to a player/girl gets a bigger flick.

Hasn't been funny since Aunty Jack

 

[yeewww]

What about Mitch Clarke, apparently wants a second crack, will cost stuff all because of the huge risk

 

[Shaxx Attaxx]

I'd say he would be very sought after if he decided to come back to AFL. The guy can play but yeah there's a high risk.
