i would do O'Rourke and Jaksch for pick 6/7

Jaksch is worth more that pick 20-30. He hasnt done much at AFL level but he is a 20y.o KPP which take time to mature.

O'Rourke hasnt shown much but is also someoone who could become a very good AFL player.
Another tall mid with skill (we only have one of these in Gibbs) and another KPP would be handy.

Having O'Rouke, Cripps and Graham coming into the midfield would help with our depth a fair bit as well.

Warnock knockers are surprising.
Needs to do more than just tap the ball. We're essentially playing a man down in every aspect of the game except for ruck contests. Needs to add several more strings to his bow to be of significant value in this day and age.

I think his man kicking 2 goals on him was pretty insufferable.

Man on man footy goes to water in any sport if you have a few weak links who aren't accountable enough and we had the domino effect happen more then a few times against Hawthorn.

Agree BM.

Warnock is not the only who regularly gets exploited on a weekly basis by his lack of ability to defend in transition or when the opposition spread.

We have quite a few for one reason or another who cannot impact with defensive transition !!

What would we get for Warnock if we put him up for trade and which clubs do people think may be interested?
28 in January. No athlete. History of injuries. So early 4th round pick at best.

Are you people serious? Kreuzer has a career-threatening injury and Cameron Wood is an ordinary footballer who hasn't played AFL for 2 years.

Ruckman don't grown on trees and while Robbie may get exposed every few weeks, he's currently the best we've got.

Can't say I want him gone with our lack of quality ruck stocks. Was wondering what we would get for him after reading the above chat. I do think a 4th rounder is a tad late tbh

Well on the one hand, some people say he's a liability and want him gone at all costs, on the other hand they want a decent pick for him.

Not too many clubs looking for an old timer with poor mobility. Melbourne have young prospects, Collingwood are investing in Grundy, while Minson will continue for another couple of years at the Bulldogs.

Cox and Sandliands will retire soon but there's little chance Warnock would return to WA.

*Essendon are the only wildcard, if player bans were to be imposed.

We need knockers. He is one of the best hit out ruck men in the AFL. I understand that he isn't great around the ground, quite poor actually, but he sets up our mids nicely from the ruck contests, and he is good insurance for the injury prone Kruezer. I wouldn't be confident with Rowe/Cas/Wood as our ruck men if Kruez goes down again. Unless we get another solid ruck in exchange for him (which won't happen) or a draft pick which we can get a good ruck prospect with, the thought of trading knockers is stupid imo.

Not sure I agree. Not arguing he's great around the ground, but last night was the first time in a while that I've actually seen him exposed and just look shot to pieces. I agree that he doesn't offer much offensively on the spread, but I don't think he regularly get's beaten on it either
