I do we are done the only thing would be find rounds a token home that's it

 

[TradeDraft]

Not if you can help it, Dave. Still another week of trades!

I just don't see us doing no more then 1 More Trade if we do any at all. Unless we sign someone like Salopek Today

 

[Smokeyr67]

At the moment, I feel we're in the red.

We've lost a servicable young forward with 5 or so years ahead of him for a second rate part time ruck. Loss

We've lost a decent mid for a back flanker. Loss

I'll have to wait for a few years to see if we actually come out on top, lets hope our picks turn up some gold.

fairdinkum this joint is insane listen to some of the opposition supporters to see how well we have done in trade period if you seriously are not happy with what we have done, then you need to have your head examined.

We've lost a bad middle aged forward, for an older one who is a much better forward and better ruckmen.

We've lost an okay inconsistant mid for an outside runner who is around the same level (i think better) who will play on the wing mostly not HB. Add in we have got 2 first round picks, big win.

Umm, what about the 3 first round picks we have? Worth less?

Herald Sun says we're after Tom Hickey. GC would want our pick 20 for him.

Would not mind him at all but Didn't Walsh said we are not Trading Any of the 1st 3 Picks?

 

[The Royal Sampler]

If we're after Currie, and he's previously been on an AFL list (Swans), then maybe the GWS can pre-list him and we can trade for him before the draft? Worked for Krak and Clarke.

 

[Shade]

Why are we even looking at Hickey? ralphy is so damn clueless we dont want to develop a ruckmen we have 2 of them already if we want a ruckmen get a ready made one.

I'd use pick 20 on him for sure. He will be a gun.

He's ready to go. Only have to watch what he did to us in round 10 this year to see his ability.

Lions are after Martin:

[Old Spice]

Still feel we need a ruck option. Still hot on Martin.

Agree but i dont think Walshy and Hine are to keen on the guy otherwise they probably would have tried to get him involved in the Dawes deal somehow.

That is what I was thinking if we Rated Martin we would of got him then

 

[HFF]

Nothing silly now by the club.

We are in the box seat in this period.

No more activity required.

Go to the draft.

Though we could might Trade away Dead Wood like Rounds for Nothing

That's ok.

I was referring to potentially offloading any of our early picks.

Just keep them and go to the draft- which Walsh and Hine have already stated we would be doing.

 

[Couch Coach]

Only if they take Wood as well to free up a spot on our list not to mention the $ from the final year of his contract.

I think you're right. Hopefully Dees waiting to secure Pedo though before being willing to release Martin.
