I used to think Dangerfield was overrated too. Not after this year, he went to another level.

Dangerfield
Kennedy
Pendles

He's third best mid in the comp IMO.
4th best*

I'm expecting very little to happen. It seems we may have to be patient for another year to have a crack at getting what we want. If Martin is still in our sights 2017, we may have to make do with a rookie ruck man for 2016. A diamond in the rough or just someone to hold the fort in case of injuries.

The Talia replacement is less clear. Do we go with another rookie? Have the recruiters got their eye on someone less likely? Trading for current AFL senior players may be costly and the pool seems to be diminishing.

McCartney made it quite clear that we are not trading in just any one. That tells me they know who they want....and are prepared to be patient in the hope the dominoes fall the right way, if not this year, then next.

It will be interesting to see whether we are playing the long game......

Hrovat would garner interest, that's just bullshit . Bit like saying Carlisle was nominating our club early last week.
There seems to be questions on Anderson's defensive side, but there is posturing 101 going on .

Ok haven't seen any talk about him sorry if it's been talked about.

On SEN they mentioned BJ as a possible "Ryan Griffen trade" of 2015 suggesting that he might want to get to a club that will push for a flag in the next 1-2 years, feel was mentioned as that team.

Would you like BJ at the club? He can play all 3 areas, has very good kicking skills and could come cheap next year, what I mean is he is a 700k player so Essendon may be keen to pay a big chunk if his salary meaning we could end up paying 400-450k for him.

Is he the type of player we need? Prob not but I think we should look at it atleast
