This thread may have been already done but other club boards are discussing trades so I thought why not bring it up!
Some names mentioned so far and my thoughts on trading for them:
Michael Gardiner ( would consider possibly PSD draft or 3rd rnd pick)
Jason Akermanis ( stated he would not play for Blues and feeling is mutual)
Nick Davis ( cant see him returning to Melbourne but would consider him if available for maybe a 2nd rounder and fringe player)
Graham Polak ( baggage or not we NEED defenders, would offer 2nd pick(19) providing we still get priority pick at 17)
Paul Medhurst ( possibly interested if he came cheaply)
James Kelly ( would be very keen maybe for Houlihan and late pick)
Chris Tarrant ( not needed with Fev, Kennedy, Waite, Fisher already establishing our future forward line)
Peter Everitt ( too old would not touch would prefer Gardiner)
Darren Gaspar ( see Peter Everitt )

How would you blue boys like to trade Wiggins for Zac Dawson and a late round pick?

agree

I agree that we shouldn't get Everitt, Gaspar and Tarrant. The first two are to old and Tarrant we don't really need. He is knowwhere near as good as Fev anyway. I also think we don't really need Nick Davis that much. I haven't seen to much of James Kelly or Polack so I can't really make judgements on them. With this in mind I still wouldn't consider trading a second round draft pick for Polack unless we still have the priority pick. Like I said I haven't seen much of him but he would have to be pretty good to be woth a second round pick in this draft. I would love Aker at the club but it is highly unlikely that he would come and I don't think they want him anyway. Gardiner should be our main target as we desperately need a ruckman. 27 isn't to old and I heard he played really well for Claremont the other week. We might also get him cheaply as his recent indisgressions have really affected his market value. I don't really think many other clubs would want him. If we're lucky he may even fall through to the PSD and then we'll be able to get him for free. Michael Gardiner really would be a great addition to the cub.
 
Wouldn't be giving away a 2nd round pick for Polak or any of the above. Sorry
Would definitely look at Gardiner (if he can still ruck for majority of games).

PSD for them all unless direct swap for player, otherwise woulnt even bother with such an idea.
 
How about Houlihan for Medhurst in a straight swap ?
I don't want to give up any picks at this stage unless we get an unreal offer.

wiggins isn't going anywhere, he is starting to perform and is turning into a utility player for us.

Exactly. The only reason the club would look at him is because he has played well against us on occasions. We all know how much that counts for, you just have to remember names like Hawker, McGuane & Charles. Stay well away from him, he will bring nothing to the club.

From a very good source I have heard Wiggins will be used as trade bait next year. To whom and who for is unknown at the moment, but will keep everyone posted when I hear more!

That's an interesting one. He's just starting to show why he was taken so high in the draft, so his currency would have increased this year. Saying that though, i'm not really sure what we would get for him - pick or player wise.
