Adelaide paper said Lynch or Sloane but thought Lynch was more important to us. Quoted Josh Mahoney as saying "get a rod and some good bait and throw it out there". That was Tuesdays paper.There was a tweet earlier today about us being after a free agent, goes with what I posted earlier in here (Maybe they went off that). No idea who but I reckon they’ll be after Gaff.
McGovern’s old man played 63 games for Freo at start up so that’s enough for a journo to hang their hat on and churn out click bait trade speculation on him throughout his career these days.
Interstate players OOC are also a free pass.

Yep, that's fine, I wasn't saying fob him off either, just that if he is on the trade table, it'll be because this year has gone **** up due to injury or performance and it's unlikely we'd get better than a late second for him.

I'd bloody take Lynch of the Tom T variety. Watts except hard at it.

That said, if we landed Tom J, the idea of Hogan at CHF and Tom J at FF is ******* unreal. Like we would have to win the flag because that is goddamn ridiculous.
would also allow Tmac to go back with his brother, and Lever to play more that 7th defender. omg lets make it happen.

Confirmed ITK Drafting King
If we landed Tom Lynch then Hogan and Brayshaw will end up WA because he's going to be asking for about 1.5 million per year

I would trade Brayshaw if we got a pick in the top 15. He's not even a lock best 22, and if we were talking about Harmes or Hannan for that same value we'd all take it in a second.
Yes, he has outstanding character, and yes, he has had exceptionally bad luck, but his currency is inflated by his draft number and we've missed the first round for 2 years running already.

Would definitely take a first rounder for him if he wants to leave, but I hope we don’t force him out. I don’t think it sets a good standard at the club for young players when Brayshaw is allegedly one of the best trainers, etc. Can’t exactly expect loyalty if you don’t demonstrate it first

Two first rounders is the going rate...plus the under contract factor, so let's call it an even (?) three

Yes, you rolled us on the Lever trade. But I take comfort in knowing that at least Tex Walker isn’t our captain.

A bloke who doesn't pull out of contests like yours does.
Hardly surprising they barely gave a yelp on GF day - Tex couldn't lead a dog on a leash.

‘Demanding’ Walker Named Best
http://www.aflplayers.com.au/article/demanding-walker-named-best-captain/
Sorry, I can only find the 2016 article. I guess AFLPA didn't bother repeating the article for 2017
Maybe Jack should have pulled out of rd22 then he'd be playing now by his account
