WARNING TO ALL VISITORS TO THE GEELONG BOARD. You are - for the most part - welcome to discuss the current list management & trading situation at Geelong. However, this is our board, so be respectful of the home board posters & don't inflame arguments (make your points succinctly and move on). And if you're just here to troll, then don't bother or you will be enjoying a holiday
 
As much as that would be a steal we don't have a position for him unless the plan is to not get the deal done for Cameron.

I mean we do he can play CHB in the spot taylor vacated and long term we need to succession plan the defence as hendo is a year by year prospect and we are thin there.

But the eagles wont trade him for that they will want to get back into the first round (this year or next) via that trade or they wont trade him.
 
Brander for a future 2nd even in a good draft would be a really good value deal but i dont see the eagles letting him go that cheap they would want a future 1st or clark neither of which i would do.

Maybe Narkle?

But he's only played 11 games and they just signed on Waterman til 2023 who is a KPF. Maybe he just wants out.
 
195 and can play KPF or KPD. Could have Brander and DeK replace H and Hendo.
Has he ever played KPD? Thought he was a forward in juniors and has played a half forward role in his games for the Eagles.
Not that he can't be retooled but it would be a couple of years to turn him into a good defender imo.

Would be easy to have him play back, or failing that maybe he goes to CHF when Hawkins retires in the next few years and Cameron plays deep.

Or maybe we aren't getting Cameron.

While the Eagles see the 195cm swingman as a required player, suitors are beginning to ask the question over whether Brander would be better served with greater opportunity elsewhere.

Brander played eight of his 11 career games this season, but a persistent hip injury and lack of form cost him games in the middle part of the year.

He played three games in his first two seasons at the Eagles across key posts in attack and defence.

I believe he played defense this season and he's yet to kick a goal so he can't have been playing too deep forward.

It may have some legs in him being traded. Apparently money was holding up the Witherden deal as he is on a good deal and Brisbane didn't want to carry much so they may have needed another player out to fit him in.

It's not out of nowhere either. We asked for him in the Kell deal and WCE said no.

Then there were some reports of teams looking into him in Oct.

He may well want out but hes contracted. We asked for him last year and they said no i cant see that changing. And they need to get back in the first round this year or next (helps with 2 in 4 rule) i cant see them trading him unless our FR1 or 20 is involved. I like narkle but we may not have a list spot for him and we need key talls so much more. If they would trade brander for narkle and a pick in the 30s next year i would sign that so fast its not even funny.

Might just be a case of he wants out and they need to make up some money.
 
Depending on picks we have... we will obviously look at kids a lot later than we had enviosoned..

kids like this compared to one who has been mentioned quite a bit


It brings guys like Cardillo into it for me... very quick kid. , you can not teach natural speed
