He has been better than Goldy

No interest in any of those guys except maybe Tunbridge but I'm an awful hoarder so I'm the last person to ask about list management decisions, I'd still have Les Bamblett on the list. Having said that even I'd manage to make a call on that list of players without too much anxiety.
Left-field consideration - Kieran Jack.
Would come cheap, is experienced and may be on the outer if the Swans are getting a warchest together for a Martin bid (if rumours are true, Reid and Tippett are out too).
He's not huge but is a tough little bugger.
Sounds like Tim Watson was saying Tippett to the dogs is a rumour, obviously take with a grain of salt we are linked with every tall available as usual.
Oh no... Well, maybe if it was a Jade Rawlings trade (to North). That is, like we did with JR, they pay a humongous amount of his salary and they actually trade the dogs up the order (Our 38 into their circa 31) just to clear him out. Even then, Rawlings didn't fire a shot at North, but they did get Swallow with the upgraded pick we gave them with Rawlings.
Otherwise god no. Tom Williams looks like a picture of fitness and physical reliability compared to Tippett. Not to mention Tom Williams & Tippett have had similar impacts of AFL Grand Finals.
At the right price any sensible club would go for Tippett. The problem is the price, not the player.
I hope 17 clubs refuse a trade on him. They've made their bed, through shit conduct to get him there for nothing, they can lie in it as far as I'm concerned. Including losing players to salary cap issues, taking up a spot and being unable to bring in good players because there's no money. This is my preference on Sydney & Tippett.
Aaron Young kicked an excellent goal today in last min of Port vs Saints. I wonder what has been keeping him out of the side ? As there are a few players vying for that forward spot , can he play in midfield ?
