reading the HS today, forget abt doing a trade with geelong, they will be stingy and its hands off all our decent players, well then forget abt landing the gun forward u so crave!

that adelaide trade sounds good in essence as long as we land another ruckman like simmonds, dont want to be left short in the ruck dpt!
 
My source (who is just a bloke at another site with a source of his own) reckons a deal has been finalised with Adelaide and Otto is gone. Not sure what we get in return then. If true, I wouldn't be surprised to see one of Simmonds, Jolly or Jamar at the club next season.

If he wants to go to Port, throw Fiora into the deal and bring over Brogan and Salopek.
That's just trading Ottens for a harder but less effective player than himself and Fiora for an injury plagued version of himself.

I don't think Brogan is that far behind Ottens in terms of effectiveness.

About Salopek, he's a 19 year old kid getting 12 touches a game and playing matches in a side that has finished 1st on the ladder.

Fiora is a soon to be 24 year old getting 10 touches a game - many of which are clangers - and struggling to establish himself in the worst team in the competition.


Personally I think it's a good deal.

who are you kidding John.
The Ottens trade would demand both Brogan and Salopek so your giving up Fiora for nothing.lol
I,LL spew if we agreed to that trade!


cheers!
 
Does anyone watch Port Power games. Brogan is a lot better footballer than people in Melbourne give him credit for. He has more untapped potential than Ottens (he only played footy from age 17), is tougher, is currently a better player and probably wouldn't demand 400k a year.
I don't think the question is what we get as well as Brogan but what we give.

i prefer Simmonds over Brogan.Simmonds like Ottens can go foward.
IMO the Reilly and Simmonds trade looks far more appealing than Brogan and Salopek.
im more confident of Milking even a bit more out of the crows than port ;)

cheers!

LOL, giving Fiora would be more of a punishment than a favour to Port, that's the way I was looking at it.

Geez you guys overrate Ottens though.... I hope the rest of the football world does as well.

If I was in Port's position I'd rather keep Brogan and Salopek than Ottens and Fiora anyday of the week.

Being saying it all year, Ottens is one of the most overated players at Punt Road

The only thing that makes us need him is that we have no talls.

Get rid of him trade for talls and picks to recruit talls

Ottens is a wasted space just taking up valuable salary cap room
