If we offload Jake for any one of Motlop, Schache or Goldstein.....I'll be livid.

Motlop is a free agent.

Goldstein maybe ruck situation until English is ready.

He's to slow for what Bevo likes

Re: Who would you have JMac target this year?

I would be very upset if that's what we considered the right price to jettison a 23 year old who was All Australian but 2 years ago.
Its either got to be a trade proposal that puts a significant down payment on securing Lever or Kelly, maybe Shache or else we say nope.

Would anyone pay more than something like that for him? The last two seasons have been horrendous from him. He has 2-3 major flaws in his game that show no sign of improvement. I just don't see any club giving us anything of massive value. Better off holding on to him and trying to get more out of him.

A good ruckman from somewhere would be good to get. It is an area we are deficient in.

Hello LW, long time no post

J Mac doesn't fill me with confidence.

I really hope Stringer stays. He needs a mentor til he gets himself right. His best will come.

I don't think he gets enough credit to be honest. We've paid pretty big salaries in the last year or two and he's managed to keep our TPP at a level where we can still acquire a player. We've kept a strong list together when everyone was supposed to go elsewhete. We also lost Hurley in the 11th hour for the 2017 season so we've managed our money very well which is a huge part of his job. Trades we've made I'm not that rapt about though but again it's not like we've been in great positions to get more.

I agree his retention policy has been excellent. Credit is certainly deserved there with a caveat on the players we let go last year.

It is his skill at negotiating with other clubs that has me concerned. I think he gets pushed around. We received a very poor return for the players we traded out last year. Stevens trade was ordinary. Had Norf finished above us we would have paid them to take Hrovat. More should have been done to retain Hamling especially when you consider the $$ we were prepared to pay Hurley. I fear we would get unders for a player every club would love to have. We/he should take note of that.

How can we turn Jake Stringer into Josh Kelly?

Something like North's 4 & 21 (and a player we want, an achievable trade like a Goldstein which saves us trading for Martin) > for Our 9 & Stringer > Picks 4 & 21 for Kelly (GWS get a high first and second rounder despite the Whitfield affair which sickens me).

Essentially Pick 9 & Stringer for Kelly & Goldstein* (* for example)

Re: Who would you have JMac target this year?

Could we trade out JMac for bulldogtragic? Now that's a deal I could get behind!
