He just doesn't seem like the right fit for a young group. Fat & lazy. Gold Coast can have him and we get a couple of their 2nd rounders that they have in surplus.

No probs, thought your reaction was a little strange but given you weren't aware of that info, it was fair enough.
Pavlov's dogs to Carlton?

I got the impression that Touhy's form spiked when the contract he was after wasn't being offered to him.
Zac wants out, Gibbs want out. Pick 13 not enough for Gibbs. Geelong don't have any picks.
GC have mutliple first round picks and a stated desire for mature bodies. I wonder whether there is any way of a four-way mega trade that ultimately nets us 8 and 13 for Zac and Bryce. Would be relatively comfortable with that outcome.

Not at all worried about midfielders yet. I'm happy to allow SOS and Bolton to lock down the Defence and Forward options first.

Do not get the hard on for Ahern....
Multiple ACLs in his very short career should be ringing alarm bells. And he did his last ACL 4 weeks ago meaning he wont play a game next year.

Im pretty sure - unless 2014... but think it was 2015. I remember at the end of that season commenting that he was frustrating to watch or that seemed to not be on his game.
This year though I thought he was terrific.
Gord! Next you will be bringing out Tim Shaw and his steak knifes.
I can't help but think we built 5 players into the pick 5 trade (rumour) to get more value out of giving that pick away. I am feeling as though Gibbs will go for pick 13 + whatever else that the gws trade will involve that pick now for 2 or 3 players. At least that's what I'm hoping. No point stockpiling KPP and I tend to think with Marchbank and Stewart we are about sorted. Those 2 plus best available mid at pick 5 I'd be happy.
Meanwhile, are Port in the race? They have an earlier pick, so can we play them off against one another to increase what we get in return?

Went through my history. 2014 was where I thought he was having a bit of a barry crocker. 2015 of course he was having a great turnaround and polling strongly in the B&F. I stand corrected.

As I have said elsewhere there's no chance he's going to Port. It's either Carlton or Adelaide for Bryce.
Port want to get rid of Hartlett for salary cap relief & to have a greater involvement early in the draft. Trading for Gibbs would be counter-productive on both fronts.
Makes sense to move on Gibbs if they're targeting backup midfield depth both in young stocks.
Also if they try for a monster offer for Fyfe who will be 26 at the start of the 2018 season.
Means they'll be looking at a season in the bottom echelons next year (as if we weren't going to be even with Gibbs). So, low draft picks this year plus players in. Very low draft picks next year (potentially wooden spoon / pick 1), plus a Fyfe FA monster deal during his prime.
If that were to play out, this makes all the more sense as part of moving on Gibbs.
Hopefully Motlop is good mates with Gazza!
Gibbs wanting out makes losing Steele to StKilda all the more annoying!
I really hope we have some decent Mids lined up, no point making a massive play for Fyfe if he has no one other than Cripps. Losing Gibbs makes us less attractive imo. This better be some sort of trade period!

Yeah this. Don't think we'll ever see a Gibbs play for Port.. Ross would have a aneurysm!

That would be an absolute dream of an outcome.
If SOS could pull that off and keep pick #5, he's a miracle man.
After 1 day into the trade period? Bit of an overreaction no?
