    Trading

    I gather that we wont be a huge participant during the trade and the draft periods because of our somewhat settled list but if we did want to change the list around is there any players with reasonable trade value that you would be willing to look at moving on?

    What would you want in return? A good draft pick or what type of player?

    Re: Trading

    Just about every player is a possibility in a trade scenario however, due to circumstances some players are very unlikely to be ever traded.

    My first priority would be to get another early draft selection inside of the top 25.
    If that was not possible but a key forward become available then that would be worth considering.

    Working on the assumption that you need to give something decent to get something decent
    I would consider good offers for the likes of Boyd, Ray, Hahn, Street and Harbrow.
    I don't necessarily want to lose any of these players but it's pointless rocking up to trade week if you only want to offer up someone like Eagleton.

    Unless someone has asked to be traded (Street?) I wouldn't even bother to turn up.

    If anyone wants any of our players they will pay way overs for them.

    So you don't think the list needs any fine tuning or changes?
    I know there is often a belief that player for player trading does nothing for the club but if we could net another early draft selection then I would be interested to hear what might be offered.

    Re: Trading

    My thoughts would be to trade a couple of the older guys and keep the kids coming up the list,

    Eagle, Mitch, Ray. This would give the likes of Ward ect a run.

    Not sure the other clubs would want these guys as they will all be looking to go for good kids also.
    BB.

    Looking forward - Naughton, Darcy and JUH. It will be the envy of everyone.

    Re: Trading

    Great idea.
    You'll get bugger all for Eagle
    I believe Hahn just re-signed
    Ray name came up for the last 3 years, he won't leave now.

    If we trade our first rounder, can we still use our second round pick to get Ayce?

    Father son bidding is before trade week so the 1st pick would probably be locked down

    Hahn wasn't singled out rather he is the sort of player that could be in the mix if the right offer came along.

    Re: Trading

    we should be able to do a trade with Richmond and Freo. They have a history of stuffing up their trading.

    Saw machon today, against Adelaide. So glad we got rid of him. Saw him to to lay 3 tackles in the first half, and none of them stuck. His Richmond's potential now.

    Has anyone seen Sam power this year ?

    Re: Trading

    I'd be interested in exploring trade offers. We need a key forward target and another tall defender.
