Always liked the look of this guy. 26 yrs old and can get the pill, good tackler and fierce in and under if a bit slow.
Would like to see him join the Saints and help Lenny and Bally in the centre. Played well against the Cats and Hawks midfield this year, so he's no flat track bully.
Had an average year, but is a good player and would definitely add to our 'first team' midfield depth - which has been a real problem for us over the last few years.
Would love to see what he is like when used in a proper midfield rotation. Has always been used as an impact player by Laidley (averaged the same %age of gametime as Robert Harvey this season).
Would be great but are we willing to pay the price?
I don't think so, unless we can get Harris and Mcintosh for a second rounder I don't think we will see either in the Red White and Black next year...
ROBERT HARVEY A.K.A The Great Man, Banger, Harves, Ol' Man River...
384 games, 4 B&F's, 3 EJ Whitten Medals, St.Kilda Captain, 2 Time Brownlow Medalist, 8 Time All Australian, 2nd Highest Brownlow votes poller.... The greatest of ALL TIME!!
I think Harris would be a good get. We have Lenny and Ball who are good at the stoppages but when we rotate and those guys aren't in there we get slaughtered.
Being able to swing Harris in there with guys like Dal and Joey when Lenny and Bally are resting will upgrade our midfield no doubt.

Dont want to get rid of X.
Another year with a quality fitness regime should see him set to star in '09.
Offer them a 2nd rounder plus Fiora - they need another outside midfielder / half forward and Laidley might be able to get the necessary work ethic out of him.
I can't see Laidley tolerating the idea of Fiora, but I'll tell you one thing - I'd LOVE to see it... Fiora coached by someone like Laidley. they'll put him in the middle of a circle and take turns boxing him
Would rather have a crack at Swallow. Has youth on his side, has a little bit more toe, and tackles like a man possessed (something we need a bit more of).
