Boak, would love the club to get him with some of that money they've got free in the cap.
Pass, we do not need another midfielder on a $500k+ contract which is what he would be worth in the GC inflated market. Then you need to consider what we would need to give up. Draft Picks will not be anywhere near enough given that GC will be offering up premium picks to anyone interested, and as a developing side this is what type of deal Port would be most interested in doing.

I'd be targeting Roughead if I was Swann for two reasons - he addresses the biggest deficiency in our side, and we have players that would satisfy Hawthorn's needs without having to give up any of our stars. Hampson or Jacobs are the obvious ones, and along with a fringe player and/or a draft pick. I'd also do a straight swap for Thornton and a perhaps a lower pick as a sweetener.

Let's just hope Hawthorn can't afford to keep both him and Franklin in the same side so that they are actually willing to deal. Bit early for speculation though... :D

Something tells me that all the boys from the blues will be re-signed...

I think that the club might be looking at Roughhead first up to see if we can swing a deal. But I would be waiting until about the halfway point of the season and see how our restructured forward line is going before approaching his agent.

Riewoldt from Richmond might be a good pickup as well.

But as BowerTower said... too early in the season for this :D

These 2 players should be added to out untouchable list ASAP. Hampson will be a fricken superstar in 1-2 years and Thornton is our backline general. IMO we need both these players in our side if we are to win our next flags.

It depends how badly we want Roughead or Franklin or whoever we ask for.

As much fun as it would be to trade Jacobs and a first rounder for one of them, it just doesn't work that way.

Gibbs is by far the most important player listed and the only one Gold Coast would be interested I would have thought. You are fortunate in the fact you have multiple midfielders and if Gibbs has a blinder this year his price is only going to increase, it may even help you to get another top 5 draft pick??


and more importantly our players-
gibbs
yarran
grigg
robinson
austin
russell
betts
scotland
houlihan

Sure, every club has a list of players they wouldn't like to trade but very few are actually 'untouchable'. For example, most people would rate Gibbs as an untouchable, but would you knock back a straight swap for Tippett, Franklin or Roughhead? I certainly wouldn't.

gibbs - Untouchable
yarran - Untouchable. Unless he desperately wants to leave
grigg - Should keep him, but?
robinson - Should keep him, but?
austin - They wouldn't want him
russell - They wouldn't want him
betts - Traid Bait
scotland - Too old
houlihan - Too old

if you can help me out THANK YOU.

GC17 would take Russell and Austin for a second round pick.

They're ready to go and would be ready made players.

Since they mentioned recruiting a 28 year old, can we offer them Thornton? :eek:

What?

You'd draft a Franklin ahead of Gibbs, but a trade would be out of the order from both sides.

Your top tier and former top picks are off limits.

Why would we trade a franchise midfielder for Roughead or Tippett?

That would be a case of robbing Peter to pay Paul.

I rate Roughead and Tippett, but **** that.

I wouldn't swap Gibbs for anyone.

He'll be a superstar in his own right.

Surprised at how lowly Austin is rated by some. If failing to land Gibbs/Yarran, I'd (I being the GC) be very keen on him, probably more so than Robinson and Grigg.

The boy has shown a bit at AFL level and players who can potentially hold down a KP are worth their weight in gold. Doesn't lack pace and has shown his courage on numerous occasions.

Still young and he's definitely one player I wouldn't want to lose.

Fair enough, but my understanding was they were going after ready made, walk up start players, who play regular senior footy. If this is their criteria then Austin will not be looked at. I didn't say I didn't rate him, just that IMO GC17 would not be interested in him. :thumbsu:

Probably not because we have midfielders but Gibbs would think of it as a dog act after years of pumping him up by the club. The deal would only satisfy him if one of the South Australian team was in the picture.

I wouldn't trade Gibbs for Riewoldt, Brown in fact there is no one in the comp I would trade him for. He is going to be a fricken superstar.

Gibbs is 1 midfielder he is trade material if the right player come to us like Roughead,Franklyn. Their wouldn't be too many more although.

I don't think people rate him so low at our club i just think most clubs don't rate him yet. The difference between him and Russell people have seen the major improvement of Russell whose still young.Mitch Robinson has shown more in the 1 year to other supporters clubs that he has the goods to play a full season.Shaun Grigg can already slot in several sides when fit.

If I concentrate on the missed space the rest of it may not cave my head in. Classic balderdash, starman! :thumbsu:

Straight swap? No thanks. There's a risk the above 3 have peaked already; take them out of their current environment and they may struggle. e.g. Buddy & Roughy are a double act but would they function apart?

Buddy as a loose cannon may be a wunderkind like another Lance we knew...:eek:

Who's the safer bet to play 300 games? Gibbs! The young man is still only 20...

I just can't see Carlton losing any of their players to Gold Coast. We have just opened our brand new training facility, and we have had a taste of finals last year, and I suspect the players will be very very hungry to play finals again this year.

I also really believe that Carlton could be on the verge of something pretty special on-field, and who would want to leave? Geelong, Hawthorn and the Bulldogs are more than likely the clubs who Gold Coast will be targetting the most, in particular the Hawks, who have both Franklin and Roughead out of contract at years end.
