I would love to try and pry Scooter from the Eagles, not sure if Varcoe would get the deal done though..
Thoughts?
Doubt Varcoe alone would be enough, might be something of an unpopular option but what about someone like Taylor Hunt thrown into the mix maybe?
I would consider Duncan, Bundy, Motlop, GHS as guys who are off limits, but Hunt is someone who when he is good he is very good, but when he is not good he can be hard to watch - so is he worth having an a trade option to get a deal done?
agree with what
CF said. We have a group of guys getting towards the end of their careers and it would be better for the club to lose 3 this year (Corey, Chappy & J. Hunt), another 2 or 3 next year (possible combination of Pods, Enright, Lonergan & Kelly - thinking of his mixed form this year, not sure of contract status), and the year after (2015) could be the end for guys like Bartel, Stevie and maybe a couple of others who don't retire next year and are in that 30+ bracket which seems to be when retirement talk starts; worse thing for the club is to hold on a year too long with some of these guys and then lose 6 or 7 at once, or anything of up to potentially a 3rd of a our best 22.
