Not sure what it's about but people seem to be misunderstanding the concept of everyone is up for trade

It's not a fire sale , we won't be trading blokes out for the hell of it

Watts will stay unless we get a an offer that outvalues his current worth

I'm sure if Carlton put pick 6 on the table then we would trade him

Shiel's manager was on AFL Trade Radio this morning and said Shiel was very happy at GWS and definitely with us in 2015.
We're just talking in rumors mate, no need to come and talk about every thing said in here about GWS players ;)

Good to hear that Watts will stay at MFC... I think we all got caught up a bit too much in the dreadful end to the year. Now that the dust has settled we can all step back (myself included) from those demands that he never play for Melbourne again.
Until his first poor game of 2015, when it will start all over again.

Barrett saying (so take it with a grain if salt) that if we give up 2 and 3, the deal would get done, even though we don't apparently want to but Roos might throw them on the table later in trade week. Saying it's a "watch this space" situation.

Personally if we went picks 2 and 3 for Dangerfield and pick 10, I'd be pretty damn happy with that outcome.

Highly unlike Roos trades Watts at all, zero chance he's traded for a draft pick.

Jono O'Rourke has officially requested a trade.

GREATER Western Sydney No. 2 draft pick Jon O’Rourke has requested a trade.

The slick midfielder wants to return home to Victoria after two seasons at the Giants.

Hawthorn is believed to lead the chase for the 20-year-old.

The Giants want a first-round draft pick or quality player in exchange for O’Rourke.

O’Rourke is out of contract. He is managed by Stride Sports’ Tom Petroro

Straight swap of Mitch Clark for Hubbabubba Lemmings is my hope now. Don't care what Clark wants. Him out for someone who wants in I'll take; as much as I dislike Howdy Laonica, I like a player who wants in an infinite amount more than a campaigner mercenary that wants out!!!
