GWS are fkd
Lids being there will at least make watching them winning the next 74 premierships a bit more palatable
Reports that GWS will win a stack of premierships are greatly exaggerated. Sure their depth is great but they're having problems with player retention and flags are hard to win at the best of times. Other challengers will pinch flags off them. GWS will do well to get 3 flags by 2025
 
Sooooo, anyone got the heat hap for Caddy? Could be a nice pick if he's DPP seeing as everyone else is gonna lose it.

Good Average footballer, no chance for me - even if he was 3 * dpp

Don't need to be a superstar to be SC relevant, looking like thin pickings up fwd this year.

Only three in the next nine seasons, horrific.

I'm honestly expecting two, even though they're the most likely pick for the 2017 flag with the Bulldogs and Swans not far behind.

The thing is GWS keep bleeding players, another nine out in this trade period. Even if all were expendable, aside from Deledio they have to replace those guys from the draft. Pick 2 should get them a gun (even that's not guaranteed - e.g. Jono O'Rourke) but after that it's a lottery.

Then they have to be better than the rest of the top 4 when it counts. This year's flag was theirs had they beaten us in the prelim
 
WHE for ~$200k as a FWD rookie, might be worth a shot if he lines up in round 1
3 tonnes from 52 games, not a prolific scorer by any means. Would have to be basement price. Expect him to get more of a go at the pies and be a better scorer, but has a lot of stinker scores (don't know they are sub-vest scores) thrown in to frequently to make much $$$ I would think.

At around $200k, if he is lining up and looks to be a regular starter, could easily average 60-70 and get over $300k

Obviously if there are better cheaper options you take them, but if we're struggling for fwd rookies and he's going to play, he's in

Yeah of course, would just need a good patch averaging 70~ and he'd make some coin, just wary of players like him, could kick 5 and score 100+ only to throw up a stinker the week after and kill the cash generation.

The last couple of 200kish blokes I've had we're Mills and Cripps and they might have set the bar too high!

Yeah you're right.. Here's to hoping we get several great cheap rookie options next year
 
Wowee!
Active last day of trade snooze time.
Should cut it down to 1 week. Would get the same result.

Only 5 weeks or til SC Gold opens??
Yeasss.

FanFooty had their planner tool running by the 23rd last year, hopefully that can calm the shakes for a few weeks before the real thing opens!

Prestia if he has a good preseason will be tasty

Would think Prestia would be around the 105 mark.
If anything I think his inclusion, and Caddy, are gonna work wonders for the much SC maligned Cotchin.

Why would Goldy get a discount?
 
JOM most SC relevant from trade week if lines up Round 1?

Hibberd if discount applies also interesting

Zac tuohy as the cats qtr back appeals too - no corey, no jimmy

Was only 313k this year and didn't take the field so should be very affordable, easily worth the risk if he's there.
