While we're waiting for the draft to pan out anyone got any ideas how to sort out our mindset issue weve had the last couple of years ,not withstanding getting a hypnotist on board

If we can find someone dumb and desperate enough to take players like Masten and maybe Lamb, swap them with a pick for a pick upgrade possibly. I agree things look a little bleak, but I'd rather hold my criticism until after the trade/draft period is over.
Yeh I'm not overly fussed if we don't end up doing a lot this trade period, everything that gets mentioned (Coyler etc) just makes me angry. We just have a list devoid of trade-able assets which imo is largely the result of having developed such an old list and not playing enough younger guys. There's no young players who've had a run, looked half decent and want to go home. For example if we'd given Lamb a few games to show what he's got maybe someone would have bitten on him, but no one's going to trade for him because they won't have seen anything he's done at EP.
 
a

all i saw was him handpassing to a bloke in the square who was under pressure.
What about the pack marks and goal under pressure. Plus those handpasses. Hnnnnggggg

I think this was talked about earlier but I was wondering what a few of you would think of picking up Troy Menzel through the rookie draft?
If anything he would be good for depth.
 
How about Wilson then,how would he go on the midfield.
Pretty sure he was drafted as a forward so this could be the next step

Needs time. Not in the WAFL reserves but a taste in the AFL would help him IMO

Just another Dick, Bennell etc. No thanks

Masten still thinks he's a chicken from the last hypnotist session [emoji12]

Oh jaysus. Praise trade time and the bullshit rumours that pop up.

The word in Adelaide is that he has a poor tank. That with his injuries and being a more of medium forward means that we should pass. We already have Willie as a small forward with a poor tank. At least with willie you can play him deep as he is a great crumber.

Lack of tank and desire to fix it was why Carlton let him go

What do you think we've got to use to upgrade picks though? I don't see a lot, no one seems interested in the players we want to get rid of. Is Lycett expendable? Would we consider using someone like Partington? There's just not much on our list that we can even use to upgrade our picks imo.

Lycett has value, both to keep and to trade. I would also think Jackson Nelson would have some currency in Victoria. I'm a little surprised his name hasn't come up here more often as trade bait.
