Time machine.

I didn’t really follow Melbournes trading adventures last year and don’t really have an opinion on what took place, I’m sure they got it right.
What pick did Ben King get taken?

 

[pjfairbairn]

Time machine.

Just so Melbourne to make a prelim and not bottom out the one year that the ideal first round pick, ready to go straight away, is there for us!

 

[blitznu]

Hibberd is not a good kick.

Goes at the same % as Salem but Salem is such a great user.

 

[demondavey]

Ben King is exactly what we need 202 cm key forward who can pinch hit in the ruck, would walk into our team, can’t see anyway he gets to Melbourne though

So Weidemann stays in the twos all year? What’s King done that Weidemann hasn’t done?

 

[Sylvia Saint]

If we traded pick 3 for Ben King then that would be fodder for the May-sayers, given King was the player they drafted with that infamous pick 6. I'd be all for it by the way.

Where weid played would depend entirely on form, if he played like he did this year he’s in the 2’s having a developing KPF at the club has no barring on that, if your good enough you play

 

[Crimson Azure]

Apparently done a bone in his foot.

All scuttlebutt most likely. But I was curious as to why they’d ship him off. Especially being a legacy.

Hes played 101 games so father/son has triggered. So they can ship him off now and pick up his giraffe of a son in 20 years. His dad was 191cm, he is 201, so his son should check in about 211.

We’ve got Weidemann plus Petty to support TMac. I just don’t think another large KPF is critical right now, we need to address some more key issues present starting with the midfield and backline. You’d be surprised how good our forward would be with another pressure player up there, a really good defensive small forward that can crumb.

King? Can’t see it mate.

 

[Gysberts2Bate]

Petty is literally the greatest forward talent since John Coleman, King wouldn't even play for Casey seconds.

Fair enough I just totally disagree, tmac doesn’t need support he should be the support ie a good number 2, hopefully weid takes a step in year 5, no more excuses for either of them.

It’s going to take a hell of a lot more than a pressure forward to turn last years forward line debacle around but playing our best forward back where he belongs at the end of last year was a positive if belated start

 

[MarvinMonroePhD]

Is there any truth to the rumour that Frost is leaving? Would be a bad loss, he is basically a general down there, especially when May rocks up to first day of preseason with a good old Victor Bravo in his hand (and more than a few in his guts)!

 

[Hotdees]

Rory Laird has told the crows he’s exploring his options. Would we be interested? If we do end up splitting pick 3 we could get him with one of the lower picks. Has at least a good 5 or 6 years left in him

He may be a bad loss but atleast we still have Goodwin

He's a general, a foot soldier and a princess. That's why he's so valuable to the side. Versatility.

Apparently we've made an offer to Jamie Elliot. He comes with a risk, but * me I like it.

Thank God, could be genuine star of the comp or spend the next 3 years injured, either way I'm happy we are taking a risk there.

about time we showed some balls with our recruiting.

 

[Gysberts2Bate]

It's a good move, I called for it somewhere else on here the other day. Not gonna hold my breath on him staying fit but he's clearly the best of the FA small forwards and we need one.

 

[PerfectFooty]

When you people learn, doesn't how much of a star they where at Collingwood, they'll spud up at the Dees

 

[schmuttt]

If we could get Tomlinson and Elliot for free thats a great start to the trade period.

 

[Devastating Boris]

We’ve been in contact for some time. It’s going to take a good deal to pry him away.

Worth it in my opinion, he would fill a huge gap in our forward line.

 

[blitznu]

So Frost plays all 22 games yet low ball him after 1 of the worst injury hit years yet some how can offer an injury prone Elliot a 2 year deal worth alot more than the Pies. Like id love Elliot but * me this club is whack.

 

[booshboy]

Collingwood have offered him 2 years, id be happy to put 3 in front of him.

It says weve offered him.2 as well but more money than pies
