    If he wants out is a different story. Apparently he put contract talks on hold so he could see what direction Melbourne are going in.
    More of an In Bruges guy?

        I mentioned to a mate on the weekend Tom would be a good get, unfortunately I cant see the Dee's parting with him.

            Good player. I'd take him.

                Damo reported last night that GWS have to shed 600k, who do we circle?

                  I'd go for WHE.

                  Has a good tank and some wheels and when in form kicks goals. He would be icing on our midfield cake. Plus he's a Sunshine boy so it would be a homecoming of sorts.

                  There was talk of him wanting to come home last year. His value will never be as low as it is right now.
                  But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

                    GVG has been keen on Tomlinson but I just don't see him being big enough for any key post. I think he's very gettable though, and he did have 44 in the seconds on the weekend. If we could get him cheap, maybe we could look to develop him as an "every other Wire album" to Bont's "Pink Flag".

                    I really like Lobb too, who would be perfect for us. Would probably cost too much though.

                      I would chase Adam Saad hard. He's super fast and with great skills, him on the opposite flank to Johannisen would be amazing to watch.

                        Barrett (I know) suggesting that Brad Crouch might be coming back to Vic. He's obviously a super talent, but I just don't know if I could cop a guy who got suspended for sinking beers at the Clipsal 500.

                          That's an obscure reference for the kids. Are you saying that Tomlinson could be Chairs Missing, underrated and secretly better than Bont? Is Patrick Cripps Elastica? So many questions

                            No one is better than Bont, nothing is better than Pink Flag, DEFINITELY not Elastica. The "popular opinion" of Cripps being better than Bont is making me hate Cripps, and that's a damn shame. Tomlinson can be whatever that album they brought out last year was called.

                            Stringer in this analogy is obviously Loveless.

                              I thought Cripps might be a one hit wonder using Bonts riffs without permission.

                                What about James Steward from GWS? They can't stockpile all these key forwards away in the NEAFL and not expect them to agitate a move.
