Hawthorn requesting Ty Vickery

Re: Players On The Market 2016

It's weird that dance Ty Vickery and Hawthorn are having. Each of them are like gorky teens trying to build up the confidence to ask a girl out. I saw Vickery on TV saying that he needed a change then what a great club Hawthorn appear to be. He did everything but look at the camera, wink and tap the side of his nose with his forefinger.

And Hawthorn on the radio talking about how tall forward's who could take a turn in the ruck were next year's must have accessesory and what a fine figure of a man Ty Vickery cuts being and funnily enough he's a tall forward and, bugger me dead, doesn't he also take a turn in the ruck. Yes he does but I've watched him tall forwarding and taking a turn in the ruck and all I see is a long, thin streak of pelican shit. Just don't see the attraction.

Bryce Gibbs requesting a trade.

With Hrovat rumoured to be on the way to Carlton, I wonder if there is anyway we can snag the pick they may get from Adelaide (pick 13 for example) by packaging up our first and second?

Hrovat + 18 & 38 for 13 and 24.

Do we make out like bandits?

What are Geelong going to give up?

Richmond have already declared they are not interested in Steven Motlop.

There's no way Geelong can get it done for picks.

This is the big catch. They threw the kitchen sink last year and didn't win the premiership. Their first pick is 35. Motlop won't attract that much after his poor finals series. I really don't understand how Deledio & Tuohy get to Geelong.

Geel would be hoping that in trading out Motlop & Vardy they would get picks allowing the acquistion of Deledio & Tuohy.. Not sure it works and would need a lot to go right + potential steak knives.

Re: Players On The Market 2016

Don't change the list just for the sake of changing .. We have an extremely good list .. They are young and will only get better .. If players want to leave that's fine we are in a position where we will get overs for them.
Cloke and Crameri will fill the only void we actually have.( help out Stringer )
I'm not sure we have another weak position we need to fill.
Our list seems to cover all positions on the ground .

I think that is a reasonable stance but I don't think having a static list is a good thing either. Hawthorn will improve, GWS could be a beast, Adelaide are close, the Cats reinvent themselves most seasons and Swans are unlikely to dip so we do need to keep pushing the boundaries each season.

If could trade two depth players for a genuinely better player then I think we need to do that.

We need a ruckman and more class around the ground so we should look at all options if they can make us a better team.

What player types would you be interested in G?

Yep, how did Hawthorn sustain amazing success? Trading in Gibson, Burgoyne, Lake, Gunston, Hale, O'Rourke, McEvoy and now Mitchell, O'Meara & Vickery.

Us sitting back or standing still is not my desired outcome for this trade period.
