Heard on 6pr that Duffield's Manager was over in Melbourne trying to get Duffield traded to another club. What do you guys reckon we could expect to get for Duffield?. I reckon the best we could do would be a third round pick.

Must be true then.
Actually, I reckon if we package him up with Murphy we could get a decent pick. Doesn't look like anyone is offering up a first round pick for Murph, so maybe if we add a sweetener??
We really need one more good pick, can't see us getting it any other way.

3rd rounder at best. Probably a late 3rd rounder, or even a 4th round pick. IMO.

Make it Moody. If Souths are going to lose a good player, then we need to be able to replace him.
Actually - how about Ash McGrath for Duffield and our 3rd round pick?

Murphy and Duffield for a top 12 pick would be pretty good.

I really rate Duff and would hate to lose him.
We haven't seen the best of him yet and he can certainly play in any number of positions.

If I was in charge I would probably do a straight Kepler for Duffield swap. Duffield will never be a regular 22 with us but Kepler has the makings of one.
Don't shoot the messenger
Not a crack at you, towering one. If it's reported in the West tomorrow, then we'll all know it's carp.

We really need not to make any desperate trades and keep our head.
I reckon Harvey is doing a great job this trade period.

I reckon if gets traded it will be for a player. Why would we want a 4th round pick, we probably won't use our own 4th rounder.

After seeing him in last season's Wizard Cup I thought he was going to be a gun for us but he has struggled to cement a spot in our 22 and seems to turn it over a bit. Always one of the first to pay the price and be dropped when we lose.
Maybe we could get an upgrade of pick 40 (Richmonds pick 19 would be nice)? Hope he stays though, maybe Harvs can get a bit more out of him.

I really liked the look of Duffman during his few games in 2006 before he was dropped. This year, like so many of our fringe or younger players, he went backwards and didnt offer much whenever he played. Got better as the year wore on though.
He still needs to work extremely hard to claim a permanent spot in the 22 and we're all unsure whether he can make it, though he's a decent depth player.
Conclusion? Not averse to a trade if it works in our favour. If it lands us a high pick in a deal with Murph - if we were already going to do one - then im up for it.
Also a straight swap for Kepler Bradley or a late pick to trade for Kepler would add more depth to our list than keeping him does and also go a fair way to replacing Murph if he goes. Otherwise a swap for Hadley would hopefully land us a better player if his injuries are sorted out.
Hopefully whoever we draft i.e. Palmer, Masten or Rioli would be a better player than Duff anyway in a matter of time. Plus sounds like Moody's an option in the PSD too and we need to make room for all these guys!!

Agree with Avid_Avenger's points. I wouldn't like to see Duffield go as from 2006 you would say he has quite a bit of potential/talent.
He just needs regular game time AND a big personal commitment from himself. Though him and Browne may be fighting for the same spot at this time.

I don't know what happened to Duff this year. I saw him in a pre-season game against Port and in the NAB cup games at the start of 2006 and he can really play. If he gets back to that kind of form he'll be a great player for us.
Hope we keep him. And Murph for that matter.

Duffield had a huge preseason this year, his fitness was tops, but his footy went backwards.
Would be interesting to see if he's traded whether he goes backwards or forwards.

Has anyone actually seen Kepler Bradley play? 
The Duffman, even at his turnover-king worst, is ahead of him. Why would we want to trade players who MAY turn out to be good senior players, when they have virtually no trade value?

How did Duffield go in South Freo best and fairest?(i honestly dont know)... Kepler won Bendigo's so has some talent there...Has anyone actually seen Kepler Bradley play?
