If not, then I'd take Smith.
mick stevens signed a 2 year deal last year, so it would get a bit messy imo so my guess is he wont be up for trade this year.

if you would take smith for lamb then i think we gots ourselves a deal. there are so many similarities between lamb and smith, both were former top 10 draft picks, both arrived with plenty of expectation, both failed to deliver, both play well at vfl level, both get little recognition for there vfl efforts by there respective coaches and both could seriously benefit from a change of scenery.

i think this trade (if it happens) would be great for both clubs and both players...everyone wins!!
 
Does Smith have good leg speed? Does he play as an in and under or as a receiver?

I can't say I've seen him much. All I know is that he was a potential number 1 pick in 2000, which suggests he has a ****load of potential.

look he isnt slow without being electric either, his main problem is his kicking isnt all that penatrating. however, he loves it hard and rough and will often get quick kicks out of packs, or fire out quick handpasses. so he is very much an in and under type midfielder. knows where the goals are too, can play in a FP whilst resting, but has incredible endurance and could probably play on the ball all day. will bust a gut too, best work ethic at north imo, just kept trying all year even though he didnt once get into the emergencies, despite his excellent form at vfl level.

I'd do Lamb for Smith, the perfect trade. North need young key defenders, we have one that is out of favour, we need young inside midfielders they have one that is out of favour. Both are former first round picks, both could use a change of club.
done!! ill get on the phone to laidley, you do the same to daniher and we can have this all sorted before trade week starts ;)
 
Hold on a second... the North supporters seem keen, and in fact a little TOO keen to get rid of Smith... what's wrong with him?
 
With their abundance of talent of midfield and lack of key defenders, i think they just want a good trade for him. I would have said Wheatley for Smith (i said that in my past persona jivinivan) but Lamb will do me.

i dont think i am alone in saying i would love to have smith in the seniors week in week out, but he seams to be a long way down in the pecking order for a spot in the midfield. he hasnt played a game for us all year. the reason we are keen to get a trade for him is we dont wanna lose him for nothing. he remains one of the highest picks we have had in the national draft and it would be disappointing to see it go to waste.
if we could salvage a trade for him, then it wont seem like such a waste...i have no doubt he is good enough!!

That sounds so much like Chris Lamb it ain't funny!
 
Smith v Laidley

Smith is gone and has been told by Laidley as much. I'd suggest that the Roos would be happier with Wheatly than Lamb but either would suffice.
I understand that Smith has been out of favor with Laidley since he wouldn't shave his ordinary looking beard for the team photo at the start of 2003.
Seems stupid but Laidley mightn't have liked the fact that a young fella was pushing him in his first year when he was trying to build somce respect.

Dead right!

I'm a Chris Lamb fan but ND hates him, simple as that!

I'd be loathed to lose Lamb & am not excited by Dylan Smith but I do see it happening. Not an overly exciting trade all-round but it's probably worth a shot.

Surely we can use him as a sweetner to a deal than just a plain old player like Smith, couldn't we?

I'd rather us get something worthwhile.
