............is the kind of versatile tall I am talking about that we could use. He can play CHB, CHF, and second ruck. He wouldnt cost a packet.

I would trade say McGough or Betheras to Richmond for Hall.

Thoughts?
 
We can do better than that. If Hall can't get a game at the Tigers, why should we recruit him? Besides, we have a history of recruiting Richmond hacks, so I think we shouldn't trade with Richmond at all. ;)

Don't underestimate the Frawley factor. He's arguably the worst coach in the competition, maybe MM can get a lot more out of him.

Probably. But if you got him cheap enough he would simply replace Molloy and Richo etc, and it would not prevent you from still chasing bigger fish. The Tiges have ****ed so many teams off today that nobody will deal with them - it creates an oppportunity to pick at the carcass!!

Nah frawley would be 2nd worst coach in the league. thomas would take the honours as worst coach. Thomas has proven he can do very little with so much.
 
Not sure about Hall. A second string KPP and a ruckman whose tap work I have not seen be effective. I am happy to pick him up cheap but is he actually better than McKee?
 
I would pick him up in the Draft but i would certainly not trade anyone for him. Would ba a great value to fraser,

Think about our Forward line. We missed Fraser there this year but Tarrant and Didak stood up, But if Hall was in our side you could add another 200 hitouts and another 20 goals.
 
Hall won't be delisted. He's only being offered in trade because he's a surplus tall with age on his side. With Holland leaving I hope we hang onto him.
 
Ray Hall is a skinny tall with fair skills and excellent endurance. In effect he would be a lesser version of Fraser, or a better version of BK. I think he had glandular? I'm not sure but there's been some health or fitness issue in the past.

He is worth trading for (any half-coordinated big man is) but he is not the massive bashing ruckman or big-arsed CHB we really need.

After your success with Brad Smith and Steve McKee I cant see why you wouldnt want another ex-Richmond ruckman

Mathew Pavlich.
McKee was the wordst deal we've evenr done by miles and miles and miles. Has cost us two premierships already and Pavlich has another 10 years to win a few for Freo. Take McKee out of Collingwood and add in a real ruckman and Pavlich and we'de be bloody scared of how good we are.

That deal was a complete stuff up for both clubs, as were the draft choices we both made.

King and McKee are both duds

Fiora before Pavlich is possibly the worst draft decision in history

Did you draft Danny Roach with that pick?? I'm not sure, I might be thinking of another draft
