What are we looking at for this guy?
Are we dreaming for a high second rd pick, or even having a go at ted richards + something?
Personally still think he would be a bloody influential player with a good list around him.

We really need to get something in return for a guy like campo!
 
Essendon's Pick 23 would have to be the favourite, currently.

Wouldn't completely rule out being involved in the Watts to St.Kilda deal for 17 with perhaps Sporn, or a late St.Kilda pick, thrown in with Campo.
 
campo for richards (shown interest in campo and richards want to leave)
campo for pickett (adel connection for campo and pagan connection for byron)
campo for watts (adelaide connection and watts wanting out)

we have 1st PSD pick so we can play hard ball, if we didn't i mightbe adding a player to the watts deal in particular.

Campo played well in the backline in the second half of year and he has had bugger all injuries could probably play down back for another 3 or 4 years so i want to keep him as we might not get much for him and we need experience and rebound down back.

as long as he is not required to pick anyone up.

we have a number of rebound defenders waiting in the wings who can fill Campos role.

time to move scott camporeale on. I would be happy with a 2nd round pick.

Second round pick at best i believe. Not sure if clubs would trade a player for Campo, as he is now 30.

this doesn't really make sense because if we get a second rounder for campo that could be a pick anywhere from between pick 20 and pick 36 so we would be picking up a quality kid who would be only 17 or 18 so a club would be swapping an 18 year old for a 30 year old.

Not every pick turns out to be a gun or play 10 years.
A pick around 30 would be around a 25% chance of getting a very good player. 50% of getting a dud who lasts a few years before being delisted.

this might be so but i would rather take a punt on a kid in replacement for campo then pick up a player like marc bolton or john baird or shannon watt.

I agree. But that is why clubs would look at getting a Campo or a Lappin instead of picking up a teenager with pick 40 or so.

We dont need to do that as we are not a finals side and topping up is what has got us into the situation we are in.

Topping up out of necessity because of the draft penalties is understandable but it is not the way to build a strong side. So no more Longmuir/Chambers types.
