2017 trade/draft thread

[kane249]

I take umbrage at that comment. Fivey has been outstanding for years.....

He's on shakey ground after the Mayne recruitment suggestion

I still don't get the fascination for height in a non KPP.
Give me a 178cm footballer any day over a 190cm athlete.

I'm still spewing over Caleb Daniel too.

Sam Lloyd & Anthony Miles is the players your talking about here both pure footballers

 

[squashface]

I still reckon we're getting Josh Kelly

Lloyd would be a handy pickup

Your address

I need it

For if this comes true, you'll be getting some Biggie love

 

[Hugh Jarse]

6'6" very mobile and quick over the ground with outstanding skill - not that i want him

You were supposed to agree with me so we could have a laugh at jack watts together and share a classic bigfooty moment in front of the entire board...

Our first this year and next probably wouldn't be enough.

I can't stop watching the last 2 minutes of last night

Our first this year and next probably wouldn't be enough.

2 firsts, lycett and next year's second for kelly, wilson and their second rounder this year. They desperately need someone to take over from mumford soon, 2 firsts and a second in a stronger draft. We then draft Tim kelly with one of our 2 second rounders and Bailey banfield with our third and Jones from ep as a developing ruckman late. Walk away losing lycett and 2 firsts but gain an a grade mid, a plug and play option with pace in Tim kelly and banfield because I think he can make the grade as a b grade mid rotation. We're losing priddis and Mitchell so need a lot of ready to go midfield coverage.

Gee (if true) I did not see that coming.

Interesting - wonder how he was convinced to re-sign. We have you earmarked as a ?????????

Weren't you adamant that he was leaving a few weeks ago?

 

[onthemove77]

Weren't you adamant that he was leaving a few weeks ago?

Yeah I was adamant. I think the coaches were happy with his development and progression and convinced him he will get more opportunities

 

[Godfather32]

Where do you think he plays his best footy?

 

[Yamumluvsbigcox]

He is contracted though and we have no leverage. Even if he was uncontracted a first rounder would be the price.

I don't think salary cap would be a strong enough reason to accept a deal like that - it would be madness on their part if they did.

They traded a contracted caddy last year for cheap because of salary reasons

He is a tight ass and we probably offering more money than the rookie contract he would get elsewhere

 

[onthemove77]

As a kid he played his best football forward.

 

[Godfather32]

As a kid he played his best football forward.

As a key forward or higher up the ground?

 

[onthemove77]

He actually played out of the square a lot. But also as a high half forward roaming

 

[WCErevival]

God damn it

 

[squashface]

Happy with that, could still be a player.

 

[bl4ke]

Happy to give Lamb another year purely on the fact he holds no currency at the trade table

 

[tigger_ferret]

Actually really happy with this if true. Hopefully has a good preseason and finally gets a few senior games.

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

Can't say I was expecting that. Well if true, might as well give him a game or 2 if his form warrants it so we can figure if he can be an AFL player or not, or else he's taking up a list spot for nothing. Only 1 game in 3 years and rarely even pushes for selection. Perhaps dropping him to the rookie list is an option.

 

[Elite Pete]

There was reports Brandon Ah Chee wanted to come home mid season. Hope it's true and we are the ones to get him. Think he can be a very good player and for pretty cheap (3rd rounder?) dominating in the SA league final ATM. Good year and would be better than what we have ATM
