    Big players last year and a result that was disappointing doesn't help their cause.
    If Port loses Wingard, then Ken is losing one of the 5 players he actually talks to.

    Has kicked 11 in 15 games the last 2 years (in a dominant side) and will be 29 come rd1 next year... didn't realise he was that old.

    A big pass from me.

    But has kicked 69 goals in 57 games overall.

    I don't mind the idea. Won't cost much more than a late pick and offer some competition for a place in the team. I think he offers more than Honey or Dale as a forward.

    Dale or Dahl?

    Bailey Dale could prove to be a 40+ goal a season player when Boyd and Schache become the targets we recruited them for.

    We all know that the emergence of English as a genuine ruck option changes the dynamic of our side dramatically allowing Boyd to spend more time forward. What it also does is create match-up issues for the opposition when there are four genuine marking options when you add Gowers and Dale, not too mention The Bont when he goes forward.

    Lloyd as a defensive forward may work as long as he has enough in the tank to pinch hit in the midfield when required. If we don't land him, and it wouldn't worry me if we didn't, I reckon Wally could adapt to that role if required.

    Depends what Wingard will cost in terms of $$ and as part of a trade. If he doesn't impact our ability to re-sign our young guns and we cough up Pick 7, I am all in.

    Wingard is the type of player we are hoping to recruit with Pick 7. Outside silk who can also impact up forward.

    I would caution optimism about him as a pure forward though. I think he does his best work as a mid running off the back of the contest. Watch that PF v Hawthorn from a few years ago and he was dynamite late in the game.

    As with most half forwards in the league, he gets stale when left there - particularly considering how congested the forward half of the ground is these days.

    For me I would want him 60 mid/40 forward.

    I'd like him to split his time too - allows us to have the Bont spend a bit more time forward, might even be able to rest McLean there too as I rate his forward nous but he was needed in the middle a lot more this season.

    I like Lloyd as a replacement for Wallis. I think he'd have a similar impact in the midfield (that is to say, not a big influence on the game) and would be equally dangerous up forward. I'd probably still be ok with getting him should we keep Wallis, just because we lack natural forwards and those we do have are either super injury prone (Dickson) or very green (Greene).

    On Wallis, I am hoping we let him go but by the sounds of it he is staying.
    I should leave it alone but you're not right

    He averages (well) less than 1 goal per game...and now he is going to kick 2/game? Those are Luke Breust type numbers...His average in the AFL is (as is typical for most players when it comes to goals) pretty much EXACTLY THE SAME as his average when he played TAC cup when he kicked 14 goals in 20 games

    If he became a 20 goal per year player, THAT would be a massive effort...40 goals per year? It is not going to happen.
    What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

We need to not get caught up with the 'can be' very good player coming to us for once and ensure it's the right move. We will be giving up a lot. If he came for 850k I would be happier but I assume that's there abouts with the Port offer.
    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

    Talk of us getting Tigers rookie small forward Stengle.

    Why would the Tigers trade a rookie?

    Didn't we trade for Biggs who was on the rookie list at the time.

    Yep.

    Richmond might get a slight upgrade somewhere, or fit within a package or three club deal like Biggs.
