    This trade period was meant to be sit back, chill and bask in premiership glory. Not have to replace two KPD....

    I like what you say. Too much emphasise now on where players will be playing in 2017 and while that is important there needs to be more premiership celebration time

    We've only lost one, and he wasn't playing when we had a full team available.

    So easily forgotten.

    I'm more gutted by Adams than Hamling. Hamling's worth has been seriously inflated by Buddy's rolled ankle. Hamling is a goer. Not much more.

    Would rather keep him but it's nothing to lose sleep over.

    I'd still prefer Hamling and Adams to Roberts and Adams or Roberts and ????.

    Re: Half Way Through The Trade Period - Where Are We Headed?

    Does this make any realistic sense?

    22 & 24 from GCS for Pick 18 & 2017 second rounder (likely gcs ahead on points, even stronger position this draft)
    23 from St Kilda for Stevens and Pick 35 (Hamling pick) & Pick 74 as a bonus if they want it
    25 from Carlton for Hrovat and Picks 40 (second rounder) & Pick 75 as a bonus if they want it (they use Gibbs compo to deal with GWS over Marchbank, Pickett, Stewart etc)

    St Kilda get Stevens for a swap of second rounders, and given a fourth rounder if they want it
    Carlton get Hrovat for a swap of second rounders, and given a fourth rounder if they want it
    GCS get a first rounder, and future second rounder
    (Adams for Duggan or he stays)

    We get 22, 23, 24 & 25 (63 given for Cloke)

    In: Cloke, 22, 23, 24, 25
    Outs: Minson, Hamling, Stevens, Hrovat, 5th -- Picks 18, 35, 40, 63, 74, 75 & 2017 Second Rounder

    Re: Half Way Through The Trade Period - Where Are We Headed?

    The logic for the GCS swapping picks seems intriguing
    They have 6 picks inside of the 2 rounds and I think they would more or less want a couple of established players with swapping of picks.

    What's Rance's contract status? If we already had plenty of cash left over, and we're moving on Hamling and Adams, maybe the "big move" we're going to make it to prise him out?

    I dunno. I'm just spit balling.

    Wasn't Rance either going to re-sign with Richmond or retire when he was out of contract last?

    Be a fair turnaround to go to another club after that (assuming I'm remembering correctly)

    Re: Half Way Through The Trade Period - Where Are We Headed?

    So we have four gone or good as gone: Minson, Hamling, Stevens, Hrovat.
    Adams has been told this weekend he's required to keep to his contract for 2017.
    We've committed to Cloke & we will have plenty of picks it seems.
    The fate of Prudden & Honeychurch??
    Not really linked to anyone other than Cloke.

    Get set for another 4 days of doing nothing, waiting to see some big announcement on woof.

    Why do you keep bringing up Honeychurch? He is contracted and there has been no indication he wants to leave or be traded.

    Only that he may attract interest and it is the silly season. Strange things happen this time of the year.

    Still reckon Adams could be leaving. Something is going on there IMO.
