There's zero chance we do nothing.

It's not in either Wright or Clarkson's make up to sit on their hands and say "let's see how this list looks in 12 months time".

They'll be making changes.
Especially after our worst season in over a decade. A lot of fans want to forget and ignore the first half of the season or the poor performances of senior players given the encouraging performances of junior players. I'm confident the club won't.

The chances of the club resting on their laurels after this season is slim to none.

Can't see it.

Bold changes are required, just like last year.

The very person who gave a heads up to Mitchell being an Eagle last year prior to the media getting a sniff, has suggested that we will need to strap ourselves in for another emotional trade period as Wright continues to regenerate the list.

That literally means all but a very small handful of players could be tabled to see what the interest is, if they've not already got deals organised.

Is this the Collingwood BF poster or someone else?

This time of year, with list changes, is like watching an Evil Knievel type about to jump some buses. Scary as hell. Great when he sticks the jumpbut if he doesn't then "Oh the horror"!

Mayne and pies 1st for hawks 2nd. If we cant make us of last years salary cap dump we may as well do the reverse this year.
I honestly think if we have "Some" cap room it would be worth telling the pies. Nab us a pick between 25/35 we will take him. Half his salary and you can be done with it.

Probably uncontracted players which narrows the scope a fair bit. Doc would be the most appealing in that list

Are you drunk?

WTF man! Going after Mayne makes literally no sense whatsoever.

Given how well our young defence did this year I think we can afford to trade one or more of Frawley, Stratton or Birchall.
I think we need Frawley to help agains big power forwards. I also like the pinpoint passing of Birchall out of defence.
So I would trade out Stratton.
Also I think Puopolo os 29 and getting old and trading him out would be a possibility.

So my recommendation would be to trade out Puopolo and Stratton for a good pick or a good player.

Neither out of contract, or is saying that not allowed in a Wishlist thread?
