Should we make a play at dowler or thorp

[hammers_2]

what do you boys reckon i think we should go for one of them dont think the hawks require the pair of them

we obviously need other options for fev and i reckon one of these boys would be a much better option then hall and would be even better with hall

what would they cost tho

how about three way trade
hadley to lions for 3rd round pick

thornton + 3rd + 4th round pick for jordan lewis + dowler/thorp + 1st round pick

 

[blues4flag]

thornton + 3rd + 4th round pick for jordan lewis + dowler/thorp + 1st round pick

The trade suggestions get dumber by the day.

 

[walkers a legend]

We would be getting 2x the value in that deal.

Maybe Thornton + 3th rounder + 4th rounder

for

Dowler/Thorp + 3nd rounder

or

Austin + 2nd rounder

for

Dowler/Thorp + 3rd rounder

Dowler/Thorp + 3rd rounder

ok my idea may have been a bit over the top but thornton + 3rd + 4th

for just dowler/ thorp + 3rd

thats a joke

would our third round pick + say hartlett get the deal done?
or would it require our 2nd rounder

 

[Mentallo]

No and no.

Hawthorn will try to hold onto them so we will have to make it really tempting for them.

 

[Sharks On A Plane]

thornton + 3rd + 4th round pick for jordan lewis + dowler/thorp + 1st round pick

Hmmm...

I reckon we can do a bit better than that. Maybe throw in our 5th rounder and Hartlett for Sewell and Schoenmakers.

So we lose:
Bret Thornton
Adam Hartlett
3rd rounder
4th rounder
5th rounder

And gain:
Ryan Schoenmakers
Brad Sewell
Jordan Lewis
Mitch Thorp
Pick 9

I dig.

Define "make a play"

If you mean "enquire about their services" then yes, we should.

If you mean "trade significantly for them" then no, we shouldn't.

Thorp is a headcase and ridiculously over-valued.

Dowler finally started to show something this season which will have increased his percieved value.

Both would be very difficult to get. And that's without even mentioning their club and who is in charge of their trades.

 

[C4[2]Yo`DooR]

Mitch Thorp .. after another season of AFL.

 

[Quazza]

why the hell would you want to trade Thornton after the year he just had?

 

[BlueMania]

why the hell would you want to trade Thornton after the year he just had?

agreed. Thornton aint going anywhere !

 

[Gabagool]

Definitely keep thornton. They can keep thorp but dowler is worth a look, especially if we don't get hall.

 

[jonoman89]

Dowler definitely. He has proved he can play CHF well. Kicked a bag of 4 not long ago. 2nd rounder + Austin?

Thorp? No f***ing way.

 

[Sublime]

Mitch Thorp .. after another season of AFL.

This is where he should be also.

Say NO to Thorp.

 

[Sin City]

The club is finally on the right track, Thorp would be a huge step in the wrong direction, and thats without going into his injuries.

 

[Crippa#9]

Can't understand how people are suggesting to trade Thornton...

I would of thought he would of been close to an All Australian nomination this year with the season he had.

 

[joe stalin]

Thornton won't be traded for anyone , so just ignore those statements .

As for Thorpe and Dowler , they can't crack it at Hawthorn , so why would we want either of them ?
Why pickup anybody that can't crack it at sh!t clubs ?

Surely we learnt something from the Chris Johnson flop . Or did we ?

 

[raymagoo]

Any chance we can set up a carlton site for people with an iq over 70 so we can have some decent topics without all these muppets blurting out stupid threads??

 

[milfner]

yeh i concur
