Silly Season (post home and away season trade period) suggestions.
Not rumours, but ideas, suggestions, guesses and/or Hypotheticals. Not about rumours, you can make it all up,
For example, Daniel Rich for pick 18 and a player and/or pick swaps.

Come over to the kennel Matty, you know it makes sense - we might even have the number 27 jumper available in 2016
Exchange of 5th round picks with the Hawks should do the trick - unless of course we finish ahead of them

"Hawthorn cult figure Matt Spangher has declared himself ready if the two-time reigning AFL premiers need him through the finals."
Well if that isn't the saddest thing I've ever read.

Jokes aside, he is the best tall utility you can have on your list. He is selfless and courageous, completely team-oriented, knows and understands team defence intimately, and he hardly ever gets beaten. If a Lake or Frawley go down for Hawthorn in the finals, they won't miss a beat. People can't see past the long hair and cult status - he is a very smart and capable role player.
There won't be any gorilla key defenders available at the end of this season - Spang would be perfect insurance for our list (even as a rookie if not on the main list) while there are still question marks on Talia, Roberts and Hamling long-term, Morris short-term, and Roughy from a best-value-to-the-team perspective. Plus he comes from successful organisations - not only has he played in a flag himself, he's been part of 4 premiership squads for 3 different teams. I would draft a key defender in the ND as a priority as well.

I've never got the Spangher ridicule. He's a good player.

Re: Silly Season (post home and away season trade period) suggestions.
What about a random three way trade?
Dixon wants to Port. Port want Dixon.
GCS wants Bennell out.
Dogs want talent.
Dogs pick 15 (or so or trade down for a lower pick and player to on trade) & Minson - Bennell and Schultz
GCS Bennell & Dixon & pick 40 - pick 15 and pick 10 and Minson
Port pick 10 & Schultz - Dixon and pick 40.

Re: Silly Season (post home and away season trade period) suggestions.
Only problem with your trade is the Dogs end up with Bennell.
More of an In Bruges guy?

I'm just trying to get imaginations working. Bucks just passed on Bennell on national TV. Interesting.

Re: Silly Season (post home and away season trade period) suggestions.
Definitely don't want Schultz. He's going to Freo anyway.

We also end up with some guy called Schultz who is not John.
Not sure I see much value in Jay Schulz either.

Schulz is finished, and I reckon John could kick it further now.

Re: Silly Season (post home and away season trade period) suggestions.
Jay Schulz? 'I see nothing!'
But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

Jeremy Howe is looking at options, would he be a good get ?

Not for mine. He can take a speccy, but nothing else consistently. Apparently wanting well over $500,000 a year too!

Seems a flog too. Given minimum salary cap spend he'd have been getting well overs his whole career.
