    The Cows and Freo particularly for mine. Seems to be a few unhappy campers at the Crows, and Hill and Langdon look set to depart Freo.

      Talk about pro-active offers, perhaps we should get in the ear of Chayce Jones.

      I was very impressed with his performance against us.

      Surely Melbourne is so much closer to Launceston to create a go home factor for him.

        Keath didn't do much for Adelaide yesterday.

            I think Keath played injured
            He was hobbled during the game as well
            Excellent this season before he got injured

              Keath is 10th in the league for intercept marks, and 5th for intercept marks per game.

              This is more indicative of the player is than the dead rubber yesterday, at a club in borderline crisis. A tall, mobile intercepting marking KPD we want. He fits the bill.

                Was his first gameback for many weeks, in a dead rubber against a side who won the midfield battle.
                I'd still chase him. He's an upgrade on Cordy for that no 2 KPD spot.

                  We've got Williams dangling out there for Adelaide to have interest in. Hopefully they have that, and we with Keath and can sort something out.

                    According to The Age, Martin has told the Suns he's out.


                    Really hope we can land him.

                        You would hope that we look like a team on the move and would be appealing for player looking at a change of environment.

                          Carlisle open to trade from Saints. Silly season has started early. Hard pass from me. D-head policy (to be fair I don't know anything about him)

                            Re: Proactive Poaching

                            From Sept 2015: The Hun:

                            THE Western Bulldogs are keen on wantaway Bomber Jake Carlisle, but coach Luke Beveridge admits he is frustrated with the process.

                            A number of clubs have been linked to Carlisle, including St Kilda after coach Alan Richardson confirmed his club’s interest, after the defender requested a trade out of Essendon.

                            Beveridge says he is “uncomfortable” with his club’s inability to get itself in front of Carlisle without putting an offer on the table first, as seems to be the course of action in the modern market.

                            “Sometimes the cart gets put before the horse when really, the conversation and the chat about the person should be the thing that happens first,” Beveridge told SEN.

                            “We’re working through that.

                            ------------

                            Bevo wasn't unhappy with Carlisle, but his manager. There were also proven false rumours flying around him at the time too. Bevo clearly didn't think he was a dickhead then. I wonder if Bevo is still keen?

                            He's a type we want. But if he's going to demand huge money, that back injury would need to be signed off by the surgeons and medico's. The injury and big money is something that leads me to hesitation.

                              I’d prefer Keath. Less banged up, probably a little cheaper and off field baggage isn’t an issue.
