Poster on Extreme Black N White claims to know the Shiel family - says he's looking for a trade to Carlton.
Someone on Facebook said he saw Dylan Shiel meeting with Adrian Dodoro (Essendon recruiter) yesterday for lunch. Could be a complete lie though.

Also, he dates Choco Williams daughter could be a connection there..

Really think we should be going to the draft this year and trying to obtain as many picks as possible.

Melbourne have made it known that they're after a couple of senior bodied midfielders to add to their list...I wouldn't necessarily put Sewell in the "required" category from next year onwards, so why not put him on the table and see what sort of pick we could get in return. Even a pick at the start of the second round would be a win i reckon.

The more picks we have, the more flexibility we'll have to snag a 1 or two players through trade as well if we want to head down that path.

I must admit I haven't followed Shiel as much as Adams. What sort of player is he? Is he more outside or inside, or both. I know Adams is more an inside, tough nut midfielder, who isn't overly quick, but can run all day.
I've heard been likened to Swan without the flog attitude. Powerful acceleration from the pack and can keep going and going and going. Strong as a bull as well.

Hopefully Hawthorn attack the trade table/draft and fill that salary cap space with young talent. We should look at how Tottenham reacted when they lost Gareth Bale for 90mill, they went out and reinvested the whole lot in 5 young/experienced stars and its paying off. Not saying we can just go out and do the same as EPL is a different ball game but I would like to see the Club approach the table with the same mentality as Spurs

If Graham Wright can orchestrate Anderson for Gilham (last year) then come Monday I will sit down with my box of popcorn & enjoy the show !
Yeh I can't wait for him to pull off Cheney and our second rounder for Pick 1 and Shiel.

With Melbourne looking to gain some experience in their midfield for their pick 2 what would you guys be interested in puttin on the table? Anything? Or just leave that hook alone?
