Me, I'd let them lose all their fringe players whilst we negotiate on Stringer to them. Maybe Crameri for Lang/Menzel. Ask GCS to hold off on GAJ. Then in the last hour if trade week when Menzel, Lang and others have gone I'd do this:
- Out offer the GCS trade wise and GAJ comes to us, or retires.
- Tell Stringer he's staying and not getting anywhere near Geelong.
Let them *!*!*!*! themselves as they burn their 'own' for the chance at another, and block them.
I like that very much. That would be a great outcome. Ablett bursting out of the middle and hitting Stringer on the chest.

WCE facing a 100+ belting, relying on Mitchell & Priddis who are going. I think they need to hit the draft, I wonder if someone like Duggan might be floated to Victorian clubs looking for a good kicking runner?
They have a few we could look at. Apart from their stars they wouldn't trade they have some very good players they may consider trading for picks. They really do need some kids.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

So Stringer is the biggest name on the trade tables, with Lever second. If Melbourne can lock Lever up quick, Stringer will be the biggest trade available. That should help increase his trade value as clubs like North & Saints have failed all year to get the big names.

Storm gathering pace that Hinkley's about to walk out on Port for the Sunshine Coast.
If it becomes official, could there be other persons of interest on top of Trengove to shake out of Alberton amidst the fallout?
Wingard.

Is that "fingers crossed, (I understand that) he's good mates with Jackson" or "(I have my) fingers crossed (that) he's good mates with Jackson (and loved Ken Hinkley but hates the idea of living on the Gold Coast but has a strange fascination for living in a freezing cold and windswept industrial suburb west of Melbourne".) ?

Wingard rules; if we were to look at Stringer leaving as a breach of duty where the compensation required would be to put us in as close a position as we would have been had the breach not occurred, then Wingard would likely be the order issued.
