Realistic Trades:

[DThomas]

Daniel Harris will be a pie next year. All but agreed to. Should add a handy clearence player to our team.

Sauce? (Yes! I've always wanted to be the person that says that!)

 

[kevind]

Really, where did you hear this?

What is he 27 now

Some stats http://superstats.heraldsun.com.au/profile/210014.html

Hardly worth picking up IMO due to his poor disposal efficiency, we have enough guys who need to improve their disposal so why recruit another senior player with poor efficiency?

Will be p#@sd off if we get him....

Make that 2 of us who will be pissed off!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[mattys123]

Oh cmon, he'll make the VFL side that much better.

Daniel Harris would need massive injuries at Collingwood to play more then 5 games, no room for him in our young developing midfield.

We had a shot at him last year though, so might be merit in the story.

 

[Old Spice]

Ooh, thanks NT, a site with disposal efficiency. What is the generic url for that site so can look at other players?

 

[The Don]

Nah got a mate involved at North Melbourne. Common knowledge he is leaving North just depends on price. We want to give a Corrie like draft pick they want a third rounder. Thats the only hold up will be interesting to see what transpires

There may be merit in the story and if there is, there is not much merit in the people at our club making these decisions

If you just go to the HUN site http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl

then click on the team the player you seek plays for, the teams list will come up.

Just a matter of clicking on your player and his stats for the season will come up. I'm sure you can get past season stats of the HUN site also but not too sure.

I remember seeing a stats page during the year which had Contested Poss, Efficiency, Clearances, Inside 50's and the like which was awesome, now i cant find it.

I know, i'll simulate my frame of mind from last time.....TO THE RUM!

 

[Copeland]

Barham's kicking Efficiency is better than his, faaaarrrk.

if we give a third rounder i will be furious. i dont really want him for nothing, but could live with it i suppose.

 

[danielnajdek]

Prefer to get clay beams if he's still available with our third round. Harris
is finished.

Is this Beams brother playing in the QAFL?

I've been looking at the match reports and have seen a Beams named in the best more often then not up in Queensland and have wondered if Dayne's bro.

What type of player is he and age? Mature body or not?

Has his girlfriend left her diaphragm in his ear....that's odd isn't it?

 

[ant22]

I think Fev would be a good option for us but

a) I really can't see Calton parting with him with the intentions that they are challenging for a premiership in the next couple of years, judging by their agressive recruiting and

b) if Fev does get traded from Carlton, i would expect him to go west, maybe in a deal to secure Tarrant/Kennedy.

I hate Fev but i can't knock his ability to kick goals. If we were to take him i would hope that a strict attitude adjustment would be put in place as we have a young list and i would hate for him to mislead or be a bad influence on these guys. Could derail the whole club.

Regarding Nathan Brown, i think he's a great talent judging by 2008 however i'm not sure what really happened this year so i didnt have him as untouchable.

Jack Anthony i would class as untouchable if Cloke regains solid form or we secure the services of another good KPP. If Anthony is going to be getting the No.1/2 defender all year it could be trouble. He does struggle with close attention and needs to work harder. Hopefully that may just be an experience/maturity thing. He does have enormous potential both as a player and as a trade.

In the last senior game Nath Brown played for us this year against the hawks I rated him as out best on the ground. Roughhead could not get near it and was smashed by brown in a side that dominated the midfield. Browns form in the previous 6 or so weeks was also very good. He injured his knee late in that game and never really recovered. He is a gun and is not going anywhere. If his body holds up I believe he will be one of the premier defenders in the comp for years to come.

Speculation surronding Brian Lake:

http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/a...afl-clubs-circle/story-e6frf8w6-1225779720068

Lake had been close to signing a deal with the Western Bulldogs about three weeks ago, but talks have stalled.
Although the All-Australian full-back has an offer of about $1.8 million over four years on the table, he is baulking at the moment as other clubs circle.
It is understood Carlton and Collingwood are taking more than a passing interest in Lake

Although i seriously doubt we will get Lake, this shows that we are at least being proactive and actually making a few moves...

Harris struggles to meet the running demands of the modern game too. He's slow and doesn't have a great tank. I suppose if we got him for nothing, I wouldn't be disappointed. Ought to be a v low priority IMO.

 

[Quicky]

Sauce? (Yes! I've always wanted to be the person that says that!)

I LOL'd!!!!!

 

[Pie eyed]

WE would have to have some room under the cap.

I can't see why we could not get Lake if the offer and the money were right.
It really boils down to how much the staff think we need a player to cover for Prseti when he goes.

I would really like to see us get at the very least a KPB and KPF with some meat on them, ready to go without the ned for 3-4 years development.

 

[Peter Sidorkiewicz]

WE would have to have some room under the cap.

Rocca was on big money. Collingwood can definitely get a big name.

 

[HFF]

Landing Brian Lake is unrealistic IMO.

It is good to see we're a pro-active though.

I'm actually all for trying to upgrade our pick in the draft.

Lets see what presents itself in trade week.

Brian Lake ( formally Brian Harris) may move to Collingwood and play under the name of Brian Mchale to honor the late Jock Mchale.
Or maybe a move to Melbourne playing under the name of Brian Barassi.
TBH I don't think Lake knows just what he wants or who he is.
He has been offered $1.8 mil over 4 years at the Bullies. What more could he want?

 

[FadeAway]

After reading some of the other boards i got the feeling people where being a bit unrealistic with some of the names bandied about, so i thought i'd start a thread asking you thoughts on players "on the table" and what you'd give up for them...............

I'll go first:

Shane Tuck - 4th or 5th round pick

Shaun Burgerring (spelling) - Leon Davis + 2nd round pick

Josh Gibson - Tyson Goldsack + 4th pick

Daniel Kerr - Sharrod Wellingham + 3rd round

Barry Hall - 3rd or 4th pick or Scott Reed

Andrew Lovett - 2nd rd + Tyson Goldsack

Matt MaGuire - 3rd or 4th pick

Brett Peak - 3rd or 4th pick

Steven Salopeck - 3rd pick

Daniel Pearce - 3rd pick

Luke Ball - 2nd rd

Daniel Kerr - Sharrod Wellingham + 3rd round !!! LMAO- Your kidding yourself....you have to give good to recieve good!!!!
