Surely not? The way I read it, GWS would be giving up Tyson and two mini draft picks for 5 and 6.

A real steal for Richmond if they pull it off. And for the Doggies for that matter. Please SOS don't do it.
Hi all, first time poster - long time reader.

Should we be looking at Tyson? Has he indicated that he wants to leave GWS like Caddy last year at GC? Would Warnock & Pick 11 for Tyson & Pick 20 get this done?

I'd argue he looks even more functional than Dawes in many ways already.

Dawes has a tank body and supposedly good hands but from what I've seen, doesn't use it too well or smartly. Levi, for all his cringe worthy set shots, showed genuine ability to use his body and position himself, which is a great natural trait to have, as it can be hard to teach.


....and he can 'clunk' a mark. I haven't seen too many AFL players mark as solidly as he can. Better than Cloke. Great trait to have and something to work with.

Warnock & Pick 11 for Tyson i think would still be unders considering he is a number 3 draft pick. Although because he wants to move back to melb, and warnock is a experienced ruckman who gws need it could work

Who can we add to the list in case Henderson, Waite, Hammer, Rowe, Mitchell, Casboult, Warnock and Kreuzer are all injured at the same time again?
Honestly, how likely is that? Watson and McCarthy can go forward at a last resort.

Who is a guy who can and will kick goals for Carlton?
Tim Membrey. :) We don't have to get a forward just because they're 192+cm - in fact a little diversity would help.

I'm thinking when it comes to straight marking Levi is every bit as proficient as Cloke.
Sure, maybe just straight marking. What about queer, or bi curious marking. Homophobe.

Levi has very nice hands, but until we see a greater sample size of matches against the number one defender its a bit much comparing him to Cloke...by my reckoning anyway.

This would have to be poor list management if this is the case, Judd's contract was supposed to front ended, aside from Murphy we have no one else that could classify themselves as a geninue A grade star, we must be paying alot of our players over their valve based on performances if this is the case.
Good list management if we're not prepared to overpay for a second year player and Lynch to throw out our pay scale. Doubt that we were even after Lynch.

We have everyone we want and need locked away.

Murphy, Gibbs, Kreuzer, Henderson, Yarran, Robinson, Garlett, Hampson, Walker, Betts, Warnock, Jamison, Waite, Casboult and Lucas.

Think Laidler, Bell, Collins, Curnow, Davies and the 2010 draft are the only players who haven't re-signed.
Just because a question was answered doesn't make it true.
Imagine how many questions would have been fired at McKay, Swann, Kernahan, Rogers and co.

They'll just answer as the situation warrants and will play their cards pretty close to their chests.
It would explain why we wouldn't be chasing Caddy. Don't want to bash a 20 year old and look stupid if he ends up joining, yet there were rumours before the draft that he was a FIGJAM.

Cloke was a free agent, so we didn't need to enter a bidding war for his services. Interest in Tippett would have pushed his price up, so you can see why we would drop out of the race.

I am happy to put my hand up.

I am 33yo, 6'1, 93kgs, dodgy shoulders, have a heath scotland style bald spot but can kick straight. Happy to sign a 2yr deal @ $200k a year.
Fantastic!

.... all you need to do now is survive a night hand-cuffed to one of our players on a cruise, and then you're sweet bro!

How long would that last playing alongside Judd and Robbo?

You've got me by a year, and its knees for me rather than shoulders...but on everything else I feel we could be brothers. Uncanny. Do you like beer and boobs also?

Eddie and Bucks took me out to dinner and offered me a 2 yr deal, I went outside to think about it and when I came back Eddie had eaten my dinner so I told them to get stuffed.
