Ablett will be done pretty early or not at all (depending on GC's attitude).
Smith will be a fairly straightforward swap for an early mid 20s pick.
From there we will see but it helps that we are a destination club.
Still a few quite good players likely to be available at trade time but i reckon we might trade for one or two lower profile players that no one has talked about.

I don't see Smith making a huge addition to our Premiership hopes.
I hope Gold Coast do stick to some sort of hard nosed approach. They are potentially big losers but thats their choice to risk ..I like the idea of a player having to live up to the contract he signed. Super dumb to sign a 3 year deal after having 5 years up there and they were hardly finals locks at the time of signing..yet he signed. I think id do whatever to move him out..another year of the injury saga would be a poor outcome for my team imo... but thats their choice.
