    Yeah, but, the whole Croft conundrum. Won’t the pick get eaten up by it?

    Do we risk a future first or target a player like Max Holmes and a future 2nd or future 3rd.
    More of an In Bruges guy?

      If Geelong miss finals, we should be fine to take it in.

        Serious lack of intensity when he doesn't have the ball in hand was telling today. The worst part is we saw him do it against the Bombers, so it's all choice.

        I really rate Bailey, but that's nowhere near good enough.

          Do you think we ever see Smith in the RWB ever again?

                Smith isn't the issue, lets back the kid in.

                  Whether it's Smith or the environment he's in, we'll never know if we make no changes. His symptoms on the field aren't exactly uncommon amongst other players. But as a club we'll probably be content to make Rohan Smith the fall guy for everything so we probably won't find out unless Bailey asks for a trade.

                    I do, I don't think clubs will be chasing that hard for him and while he might always be a high maintenance type players with his ability aren't that easy to find. If he puts his hand up to leave then it's a different story.

                        Not request a trade "this week" he then went on to allude he could still request a trade.

                          Bit disappointed as it's the right time to cash in for mine.

                            Don't be. I'm not sure if trading him is the right move but if you want to trade him you have to start from the position that 'he's untouchable. A young gun mid who has dominated cut-throat finals about to come into the prime of his powers. To even consider trading him with a year left on his contract we'd require at minimum a top 10 pick and at least another pick in the top 20.'

                              Manager would have said you have another year left on your contract so hang in there and tear it up next year to increase your $$$ worth. At the moment there maybe a few clubs hesitant paying the big $$$ with his health/form.
