Yeah I assumed we are going for a midfielder - probably inside mid - with our first pick in the draft, so as this is a trade thread I only mentioned positions we need to trade for ie experienced players.

There was some discussion about this a few weeks ago and Jonas may get a game over Clurey because if Hombsch, Trengove(Ryder rucking), Austin are all down back Jonas can then play on mids resting forward or medium/small forwards.
Clurey might need to add that to his bow, I've only seen him tag top SANFL mids last year and he did well but hasn't been in any role other than KPD since.
I'm predicting for the trade period we'll see 1 or 2 players in (Young KPF/Ruck and possibly Experienced KPF and 2 or 3 out (Lobbe, O'Shea and possibly Broadbent).

What do people think of Liam McBean?
I appreciate he was dumped by Richmond but would it be worth throwing him a DFA or getting him as a rookie and seeing how he goes? Maybe just needs more time.
202cm forward/ruck. Taken in the same draft as wines, Clurey and shaw. Was pick 32 ish.

Never seen him play but remember hardwick having high hopes for him. Given our lack of KPF depth would be mad not to look at him. Could also allow us to trade Lobbe if we get an appropriate deal. I'm all for it!

I can't see the club picking up Mason Shaw again.
My memory of him at the Maggies was that he was a good kick, but needed the ball delivered lace out or he couldn't get it.
Freo were desperate for forwards, but didn't pick him up in last year's draft, he may be a chance for them this year, but if I was a Freo supporter I would rather have Butch.
I have a recollection there were rumblings that he was disenchanted when he was played in defence for the Maggies, and wanted to be traded to one of the W.A. clubs, and when that didn't happen and he was delisted, his mother went on radio ( in Perth? ) and gave the club a bake.

As far as KPD goes last year we were into Henry Schade 196cm defender. We might revisit that one?

Vickery wants to go to the Hawks.
That could leave O'Brien and Schoenmakers open to a trade back to S.A. - both KPFs.

I'd be interested in looking at either of those guys. Shouldn't cost much.

O'Brien is an unknown quantity to me but Schoenmakers seems like Hawthorn's Thurstans IMO, with dodgier injury history.
So do the Hawks intend to use Vickery up forward in the Roughead role that Schoey isn't quite up to most of the time, or will they throw him in the guts like Trengove in place of a less flexible "dinosaur" type ruck?
I guess we'll see when the trade feelers come creeping out. I expect they'd be more ok with offloading Pittonet or Fitzpatrick than Schoenmakers or O'Brien. They've got a track record of using and losing ruckmen very tactically (in terms of their list).
Vickery may not want to ruck quite so much but I suspect he doesn't want to be Richmond's next Chaplin more than that.

Collingwood thread seem to think we are into Jamie Elliott. Back injury seems bad but worth a punt imo for the right price
Yeah, with the Hawks you worry what they're hiding with players they are willing to let go. Trade for a player, only to discover they've got some rare medical condition previously unknown to man, that stops them playing better than D grade Amateur level (when not in rehab).
Simple, players want to go there because the club has got all the little things right and the likely hood of playing finals on a regular basis.

Personally I think the only players that are a real chance of being traded by us are AhChee and O'Shea. I also think that theres very little chance we will bring players in as part of the trading. I think we'll just try and get back in the 2nd round of the draft with these trades.
Im 99% confident Lobbe wont go anywhere and 100% on Broadbent and Hartlett.
Im also 100% confident that this external desperation to just trade out and delist everyone, the desire doesnt exist internally. Every call has been expected so far except for Butch which leaves our depth horribly exposed up forward and will ensure Howard cops a lot of defensive attention in the SANFL on his return. P Stewart is the remaining question mark most likely related to O'Sheas questionable future.

spoke to friend in Melbourne, who follows vfl. he said, he is a good vfl player, but to light for a kpf.
He needs to ball to be delivered well. Not sure we have the players taking the ball forward to do that.

YEP, point taken, but someone still has to give them the ball, so they can use it badly.
