I'm thinking Coniglio myself.........
Well I was looking Baz’s Twitter post and in the comments he did put the face rabbit 🐰 (tongue in cheek I’m sure)
So…for the sake of needing something to look forward to I’m going down the thought process of it’s happening and we are in for another wild few weeks in here. I’m strapping in, let’s get crazy.

He'd be my most wanted player out of anyone in the league. I said it a couple yrs ago when he was last ooc and I still think it.

In terms of fitting in to our team, I'd leap all over him more than anyone right now.

Suits our needs perfectly, although will take a hell of a lot more than throwing in Dow and Setters

What does the rabbit mean?

At the risk of sounding contrarian for the sake of it, and being run off the board, I just want to say that I didn't really see it with Stocker.

I love the kid personally, he's a great kid and great for the mental health movement, also love his tenacity, his hardness and willingness to stand up for his mates on field.

BUT, when it came to football stuff, I didn't really see it. He didn't get a lot of possession, he wasn't that skilled despite the hype - he butchered a lot of kicks - and wasn't an amazing athlete in terms of running speed, agility and in stamina. To me he always looked a bit off the pace at AFL level in just about every facet, except strength physicality.

I think it was clear he wasn't going to fit in our midfield rotation and I never thought he was a good fit as a defender. In fact I hated that move for him. Perhaps that move killed his midfield career, we never really got to see that. I would've rather kept him and given him a fair crack on ball rather than delist him, but having said that, it's not as though delisting him was some otherworldly decision, he wasn't ever that good at AFL level.
Definitely not contrarian. Definitely a selection of people who didn't buy into the romance of the pick agree.

As I said, I had him gone next year unless there was some outrageous change in almost every aspect of his game other than endeavour and strength.

My most wanted player is de goey with 3 braincells.

Absolutely looks outstanding and what do we need more than burst stoppage power and someone who can kick multiple goals?

Pushes Cerra and Walsh to some wing time and gives excellent balance with Cripps and Hewie. Imagine him bursting out of the centre square after a Cripps extraction.

Only problem is he's a bit of a dead shit.
 
Flip this around .... can you imagine if the "Big Fish" was ours and an oppo club was offering up two players who only played a handfull of games this year? Yeah lets trade McKay to the Dopers for Ham and Snelling .... I mean go ahead and make up some rumours but let's get a bit more in the ball-park in terms of plausibility.

Big name player keen to come... may involve Dow and Setters... lol yeah must be a very big name if trading Dow and Setters gets him over here....
In fairness the poster didn’t say they would be traded for this player though. If we brought in a big name inside mid those two would be affected by being told they’re no longer required.
 
If rumoured trade were to happen wouldn’t that leave us with yet another list spot to fill if 2 for 1? What would that bring us to? Currently 7 I think so 8? Looks like we will be more active outside draft than we thought
 
Interesting rumour...

Not sure Dow and Setterfield are worth anything, except to us...
Also not sure a club would trade a big named player for them, unless the player is maybe at the end of their career, a Bruest or Gunston...

We have enough big named players, unless the player comes cheap... Would rather take 2 solid players of need than 1 over paid big name...

Also... It would have to be either a FA or we would be looking at trading Pick 10 or 2023 First or both, for a big name player...
