Rivers is tradeable but not for some guy no one has ever heard of.

Maybe we would take David Mundy at freo. He is a Victorian.

Your willing to trade our best defender, for some no name. Whats wrong with you. Rivers is untouchable in my books
 
Maybe when I work out who the **** John Meesen is...

facts:

Taken at no. 8 in the 2004 draft

John Meesen took important steps in his development in 2006, regularly leading the ruck for Norwood’s senior side. Adelaide’s first selection at the 2004 national draft has now had a solid two-season grounding in the SANFL and the mobile big man will be a candidate for AFL selection this season after the retirement of Matthew Clarke and the knee injury to Rhett Biglands. He is also capable of playing a key forward role. Drafted from the Geelong Falcons, Meesen first played for Modewarre FC in Victoria where as a six year old he played in the under-11 side alongside Nathan and Gary Ablett jnr. John’s father Paul holds the Modewarre record for the most senior games.

John Meesen


Fast Facts

Jumper No: 2
Height: 200
Weight: 95
DOB: 20/06/1986
Recruited From: Modewarre/Geelong U18

I'm not an expert but I don't think you guys need another ruckman on your list. Johnson and Jamar look alright for the time being and when White retires you could draft another ruck and develop him.

As for trades, is there the faintest hope that Moloney will be shopped around at the seasons end?

No, his OP is so bad that I couldn't see too many clubs willing to take the risk to be honest.

if chris judd is available then moloney might be thrown your way, you might need to even it up with a draft pick or two though :D

Rivers is not tradable.
 
Travis Johnstone for Kris Massie and a 3rd round pick

Jared Rivers for John Meesen


any takers?

Rutten for Daniel Ward and a third?

Scott Thompson for Godfrey and and the corpse of Nick Smith?

David Mundy is not a no name, you should watch more football. I'd have him in a heartbeat for Rivers.

I dont think Jared is going to develop into the player we all thought after his rising star award. He just doesnt seem to be big enough to take the best forward. I hope I am wrong. But saying he is not tradeable is wrong.
 
i hear our old boy scotty thompson is out of contract this year, he has a young family and i hear his partner is from melb. maybe a chance to come back

Do we want him? he burnt us badly, we had him on our list for a few years, developed into a good player, gone the next year. We gave him more than he gave us.

Miller and a 2nd round pick for a class midfielder 20-25 years old. Jamar to Richmond for a 2nd round pick(17?)- pass to midfielders club. Thinking Richmond need a ruckman to help out Simmonds, we can develop Johnno. We dont need Miller and can get some class with a quality midfielder. We also need a Dale Morris type of player so Brucey doesn't need to back to play on Brad Johnson type players. Prepared to swap Ferguson, Godfrey, Warnock. In our situation we need to entertain any trade to get better.

What is vital though prior to trade season is we have a coach for 2008 whether thats Danners or not. I think the saints were disadvantaged this year. We really need to plan for 2008 now. We have the basis for a good side with Neitz, Bruce, McLean, Sylvia, White, Robertson, Johnstone, Moloney, McDonald, Rivers, Green, Carroll, Bell, Bartram, Davey all worthy of being in a premiership side. If we can add a versatile backman and a class midfielder and have a good run with injury we can get back up the ladder as early as next season- especially with a shake up in the coaching department as well.
 
true that scotty did burn us but in his defence he had a pretty rough trot with injurys. seems to have pulled it all together now

So what if he can't take the biggest forward? That's the full backs job. Rivers is a gun and has beaten some good forwards in his time - but most importantly he is brilliant at zoning off and taking contested pack marks, he has heaps of courage and good disposal and he is one of our most important players.

I no football is changing but I thought full backs normally play on forwards not defenders?
