Trade Talk 2019: who should we beat our chest like an ape about now?

Sounds like the ingredient for the perfect nightmare and a spectacular meltdown of blitz.

is this kid any good?

I liked him as a junior even though he was still fairly raw, no idea what he’s done since then though.

Kreuzer signed for 1 mor year.

“Standing at 202cm and 95kg, Ladhams has averaged 21.5 disposals, 24.9 hitouts, 5.3 marks and 6.2 clearances per game in the SANFL and debuted at AFL level in round 10.”

Also found this tidbit interesting,

"Todd Goldstein is an unrestricted free agent at season’s end, with St Kilda circling the experienced former All Australian. Should he depart, it would leave untried youngster Tristan Xerri and pre-season signing Tom Campbell as the club’s only ruck options."

Tom Campbell would be a nice Zlarke replacement tbh.

St Kilda are circling everybody.

Can’t express how disappointing that is.

Not sure if right thread. I’ve got no idea who he is but I WANT HIM ON OUR LIST!

We, along with Sydney and Norf, sent some recruiters to Ireland end of last year for the combine, Richmond didn’t that may give us an edge.

We do need another genuine line-breaking HBF who can tuck the ball under his arm and go on a jaunt. As good as Redman, Ridley and Gleeson are - they aren’t in the same category as Saad and McKenna at running the ball past blokes, so we do need some depth in that department. It’s something our VFL team has been missing in the absence of Hind especially.

Hopefully, we could add both Towey and McQuillan and then sneak Jabba Tipungwuti on the Cat B list as well.

Is there still the restriction of one Irish B list rookie per club per year?

If the rumor was true and Fanta is as good as gone…

Please let us get Jack Martin in return.

The rumors not true. But if he keeps playing the way he is, we might send him there as a punishment.

From a search on the AFL site ……if its up to date (?) we can recruit more than one.

IRISH ROOKIE PRE-SELECTION

Irish players can be signed directly to a club’s Rookie List under the International Player Rule and do not have to go through the draft. Previously, Irish players could not be listed as Category B rookies but took a spot on the main Rookie List.

Clubs can now list one Irish player as a Category B rookie but for each additional Irish player rookie listed, that player will be deemed to be a Category A rookie and the club will forfeit its last selection in the Rookie Draft for each additional player listed.

Would Dangerfield be happy on a rookie wage

Should we try to get Harley Bennell?

1yr contract as a DFA. Why not? Cost is minimal, upside is huge.

At worst he’ll be entertaining to watch in the vfl.
