[Sydswans0512]

Ruckman we can look at on the cheap
Jake Spencer Melbourne
Trent West Geelong
Shaun Hampson Carlton
Tom Downie GWS
Brent Renouf Port
Jon Griffin Freo
Rhyce Stanley Saints

Jarrod Witts is a guy that might cost more at the trade table 208cm 113kgs but did show some form late and he's only 21, Witts is from Sydney

 

[replicant]

Really?! That's great news.

He signed on a 2 year rookie contract today.

 

[lock33]

Surprised White ended up at Essendon?

Ben Reid is a free agent next year, we need to save some salary cap space for him to complete the set!

I think a Jon Griffin type is who we should be aiming for. Maybe Trent West could become that type of player. Would only cost a third rounder, and his salary would be fairly small. (200k)

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Surprised White ended up at Essendon?

He did?

 

[lock33]

He did?

oops, I got bad info then

We need to be careful of people poaching our free agents though. Look at the tasty prospects on our list:
Sydney Swans
Adam Goodes, Ryan O'Keefe, Nick Malceski, Ted Richards
LOL! A bunch of 30+ year olds no-one will want. We RULE free agency!

According to the Crows board we where draft tampering last year with Tippett lol

According to the Crows board the moon landing was faked, Elvis plays for Brisbane. Obama is a good President and Pepsi is better than Coke. I mean they are seriously nuts.

i go over there for a laugh every so often. it is like stepping into another world and now those Hawk freaks are catching up.

 

[Punts]

lol

A 12 year back ended deal for Ben Reid will fix that up.

It's almost like the worlds going to end in 4 years time and the Swans are the only ones that know

 

[Sydswans0512]

We need a creative forward pocketer Buddy is cousins with Jeff Garlett I wonder if he's any relation to Dayle?

Is he really cousins ? Garlett has stated he want to play for a vic club

Done some research and Dayle is Buddy's cousin

Should we have a crack at chappy? Would be an upgrad of mcglynn. Would deffinately put us in a better position for the flag next year.

[Superstar swan]

If the rumours are true and everitt could possibly be up for trade.. How do people feel about everitt for varcoe ??

 

[Superstar swan]

Or a David Myers, tayte pears

Unless he comes cheap cant see us trading for established players with out need to manage our cap. I can see him as someone Melbourne or Bulldogs will target and pay much more then we will.

This.

There is absolutely nil chance that we will be getting any further established players from other clubs. We are trying to offload players to manage our cap so we can bring in draftees on minimum contracts.
