Warnock has been thrown around a bit during the trade week and is apparently wanting more opportunities elsewhere. He is 26 and in his prime.

Whats he worth and which clubs do you think would want him? Have heard Carlton, Hawthorn & St Kilda so far.
 
WOuld be a very very good deal for the dees getting rid of a guy they dropped this year and is surplus for two young kids.
Are they the type of player that Melbourne needs though?

Both getting better, but not overly pacy.

Geary is a ok small defender (in the Baker mould)

Geary and Eddy are list cloggers of the highest order.
 
Is he contracted? Where will he fit into your backline?

B: Garland - Frawley - Bartram
HB: MacDonald - Rivers - Davey
Contracted for 2011.

Certainly not in our first-choice back six, but he's a great depth player to have. Trade Warnock away and when Rivers or Frawley go down, we'd have to turn to Tommy McNamara who would struggle.
 
Harrington confirmed today Warnock was a required player and we weren't entertaining offers.

Next.

The club HAS to say they are a required player if they are contracted.
We said Everitt was required 2 days before we traded him :rolleyes:

Really surprised we are not having a real dip at Warnock.

Cant see what is in it for Warnock. The Ds have better options and he will struggle to get a run. He'd walk into our FB spot.
 
Warnock will play games this year, his form slipped a bit last year but he is ok, I for one would be unhappy if we lost him. He is tall has a bit of aggro and is quite quick so when the right match ups are there he will be in. Rivers is keeping him out at the moment but he has had a history of injury problems so we cannot afford to let Warnock go.

Yeah this baffles me, Warnock is 26, Hale is 26, we do with a key back, melbourne can do with a backup ruck who could kick 20 goals a year. Whats the problem here?

If Hale is a spud then Warnock is the sprout that grows out of potatoes when you leave them in the pantry too long.

I'm guessing Casey hope Melbourne delist him or do a mercy trade, so they don't have to give the dud a game anymore.

Pretty simple really, the following summaries it for me:
  • Melbourne fans aren't banging on about Warnock being worth a first round draft pick, then spending 35 pages engaged in a pissing contest about every player on their list
  • The MFC aren’t prostituting Warnock. He is a required player, clubs have inquired and been told nothing doing.
  • He wasn’t signed up on a grossly negligent 4 year, $400,000 per year contract
  • He would be teams like Hawthorn or Carlton’s best KPD, not a back up ruckman/forward decoy that is superfluous.
Norf supports need to get over their inferiority complex, particularly in respects to Melbourne.

LOL!

Josh Gibson plays better as a key defender than Warnock and he isn't even key defender size.

Jamieson has more talent in his left toe than Warnock.

We can spend 35 pages of talking about how shit Warnock is, if that will keep you happy?
