I hate to add fire to rumours (!) but I caught the same flight back from Brisbane to Melbourne back on Sep 10 where a Collingwood recruiter was also travelling. Could be pure co-incidence. But how many times does a Pies staffer travel to/from Brisbane by themselves in full club gear?
Are you sure it wasn't club pyjamas, casual wear for travel?

B: Scharenberg - Brown - Howe
HB: Maynard - Reid - Adams
C: Wells - Rockliff - Sidebottom
HF: Mayne - White - Hoskin-Elliott
F: Elliott - Moore - Fasolo
R: Grundy - Pendlebury - Treloar
INT: Aish - DeGoey - Varcoe - Crisp

That's a cracking side.

Langdon, Broomhead, Greenwood, Ramsay, Blair, Crocker, Smith, Keefe, Thomas, Marsh, Sinclair, Wills and Phillips as depth.

Ive watched Rockliff closely for fantasy footy purposes and the guy is basically Swan without the burst of speed.

Just knows where to run to and racks up ball. Who do you tag in a midfield of Pendles, Treloar, Rockliff, Wells, Sidebottom and Adams rotating through?
LOL scharenberg best 22. He has done nothing due to injuries and you think he is going to immediately become a best 22 player? Even in the VFL he was quite average bar from a couple of standout games late in 2015 year.

Melbourne Storm.
Swap De Goey for him.

Lets face it. De Goey isn't going to get any midfield time ahead of Pendlebury, Treloar, Sidebottom, Adams, Wells, Greenwood and Crisp. Even Wills got more time in midfield than De Goey.

I don't see the point in trying to convert a pure mid in De Goey in playing as a small forward.

I don't see the logic in saying a guy was average whilst simultaneously admitting he had standout games :huh:

De Goey could turn into Daniel Menzel, if he doesn't get much midfield time.
What he showed in that last game was amazing. High half-forward. Similar height. Hard at the ball.

Really it's impossible to speculate on too much yet, however it's worth remembering that we'll likely have up to 3 second round picks to play with and Frost post the Witts deal. The hurdle is more Brisbane being open to the trade which we won't know for at least a further 48 hrs.

FWIW 2017 picks may hold the key. If we can trade two of our second rounders into a 1st roumd pick this year (say Bulldogs or Sydney) it opens up our ability to trade that 2027 1st round pick.
Won't work.
Can't trade that far in advance :p

2 standout games amongst the total of 22 games in 3 seasons doesn't merit best 22 player imo
I didn't say it did. My only comment was that your logic was flawed when you posted that he was average when he had standout games and didn't specify a number. For instance I assumed by that comment you were a VFL watcher, but when you followed up with him having two standout matches I was obviously wrong.
