was just on the drafts borad and there was a trade
our first pick for leigh brown plus there 2nd and 3rd pick
ok no brown but what about swollow? maybe swollow and first pick for our first pick
the other one was for watts or brooks and a 3rd rd pick for a 2nd round pick
people are wanting 2 trade mcmahon and ray for picks so that could get us a first and 2nd round pick
so lets say we have pick 4 and our 2nd pick is 22 we trade ray and mcahon and get pick 6 and maybe 23 or even 11-14 as the 1st round pick
we would have 4, 6/11-14, 22 and 23-6 and then use the later picks in round 1 and 2 for other trades

No way will we get someone in the same league as either of those guys in the 2nd round. Seriously, those guys are young and good players.
There'd be nothing to gain by doing that.

Ernie's right...we have nowhere near enough of these types and after a key forward, it's the tough, tackling, inside midfielders that the dogs will trade for.
Like the sound of Kelly, worth a look.
Don't scoff at me for this but a 3/4th round pick for Daniel Bradshaw? He'll be fresh and have a couple of years at filling a gap

mmm...not after a knee reco.
We went so well this year with players coming knee injuries and one as old as him, we'll need about 2 more.
Lets try for Nathan Thompson for our round 1 pick.
Notice Kepler Bradley kicking goals up forward for Bendigo Bombers, with Lloyd, Lucas, Gumbleton and Hille his forward options are limited, only young too and with his pace, endurance and build would be a great lead up centre half forward who can compete in the goal square with the the big bodied defenders ....what about a straight trade for Jordy McMahon who will give the Bombers much needed leg speed...both have scope for improvement........thoughts???
Isn't Bradley the butt of all Essendon jokes? I don't know about 'Great lead up center half forward'. I think if we went after him, we might as well go after Kingsley Hunter or Daniel Bandy. Same shite, different bucket. Laycock on the other hand, under-rated in my opinion.
I would take Bradley at the right price. He isn't worth much as much as when he was first drafted. 3rd round or higher.

Essendon tried offering Keplar to West Coast/Freo last year for their first rounder.
.... needless to say, it failed miserably.
It was almost as bad as West Coast offering us Michael Gardener in 2005 for our Pick #4.

I'm definitely happy with that
Yeah he gets bagged by Essendon, but he just doesn't fit in there. Sheedy continued to try him as a defender and even ruck pinch hitting and wasn't working out. This year he's had next to a full year in the seconds, key forward, and doing really well. Fits the bulldogs much better and has the potential to blossom

What about Cordy's kid. Where is he at?
Not eligilbe for this year's draft as he is too young. Should be from reports worth a look for the 08 draft.
He is rated highly at Essendon and for that reason we would have to give up a fair bit to get him.
Yea. You see thats why me and them rate him...he's not a dud
. But'm sure his not so talented, less skillful and positionless friend Bradley will be just as handy.

Yeah Laycock's the one they wanna keep...hence the consideration of trading Mr. Hille.
No chance of Laycock.
No chance of Laycock.
i guess the question is would BRADLEY offer our team that much more than WIGHT?
Are your two "a"s incompatible?
ie if we do get a good KPF via trade (and I doubt we will) then we won't have a good first round draft pick.

Would you be interested in Kenny McGregor?

During trade week pick up the best KPF available, and a solid tough inside midfielder
Then with our first two picks (which may not be the ones we began with) pick the best available KPF and the best available tough inside midfielder
It's all well and good finding one of each but let's bolster the stocks and give ourselves options that will multiply in the long term

i agree with ur line of thinking.
Won a spot in the AIS squad.
He's also in the Australian U19 basketball squad so there's no guarantee he'll even choose to play footy.
He's 205cm and 70kgs! I wouldn't be penciling him in as first ruck anytime soon.
