Surely taking the piss.

We can't afford to lose a 25 year old (potentially) elite player for a 34 year old.

Guthrie needs a full pre-season and a definitive role in the team, then we'll see him flourish.
I am serious, so long as it's one of their second rounders in return.
I don't think Guthrie will ever be more than he is now, a solid player.

Lang is the name being bandied about. I'd like to keep Lang, his final against Sydney was extraordinary considering the amount of footy he's missed.
I'd be happier to see Guthrie or Murdoch traded out but won't go off my food if he goes.
Won't be overly excited about getting Ablett either.
Stringer is still my number 1 priority, despite his personal issues.

I'd be ok with offering them Guthrie and Murdoch with a second rounder coming back to us along with Ablett.

Throw in GHS for free even...

I've said it before. If Duncan was to go anywhere it just has to be west coast. They are screaming for a decent mid and he's from there. And he'd get paid a stack over there.

Then there's the Brandon Matera trade too.

Too much.
One for one with a pick is the very most we should be willing to offer.
What bothers me is that we've missed out on Hopper, Smith, Stringer is 50/50 ......and Ablett may see this as an opportunity to be difficult, hold up negotiations and possibly hold up any other trades we are looking at
We already know he's a money grabbing little grub
