I'm not going to pretend I know anything other than...
Tomy Lee is a great footballers name
and
Our club has a decided WA flavour about it

If we get enough players from WA we may get salary cap relief.

Re: Tom Lee Traded for our pick 12
Agreed, although it would be good if we could get Hickey a little cheaper - especially if they are actually into Raph. Would like to be able to hang onto pick 24. Be good to have two picks in the top 25 for a change.plugger66 wrote:I reckon we can rule out Caddy now. I will go wiith pick 24 for Hickey and Cripps and 43 for Brown.

Well he is 2 inches taller than Jason Blake. Anyway if we get Hickey he wont need to be used as a 2nd ruckman.wotever1 wrote:is 194 big enough to be the second ruckman

That is true but where the hell does Hickey play when not rucking. That has always been my issue on the second ruckman in a side.

I wouldn't think Hickey would be in our starting 22.plugger66 wrote:borderbarry wrote:Well he is 2 inches taller than Jason Blake. Anyway if we get Hickey he wont need to be used as a 2nd ruckman.wotever1 wrote:is 194 big enough to be the second ruckman

He would be playing most of the year in the VFL unless McEvoy or Stanley get injured. He has the ability to play forward, but we won't be playing McEvoy, Stanley and Hickey in the same team.
Sainter for life.

If thats the case surely using Pick 24 would be too much for him?

Re: Tom Lee Traded for our pick 12
Cos he was previously listed with an AFL club (Crows).

Re: Tom Lee Traded for our pick 12
Wow!
70 goals in the WAFL this year. So he is ready to go.
We now have some key forward depth - Riewoldt, Kosi, Wilkes, Stanley, Lee, Markworth
And we have another pick to use as trade bait for eg Mitch Brown or Hickey.
Very smart trading.

Is that the reason? Why did we get Saad and Milera then?

I think Markworth will be a mid-fielder and Kosi could be the new team bus driver ? Has to earn his $400k somehow.Richter wrote:Wow!

Re: Tom Lee Traded for our pick 12
Yes while Lee sounds like a great pick-up - it seems a high price to pay doesn't it? Maybe they will put DP 24 & 43 to good use in trades or draft selections.....SaintPav wrote:Yeah, but pick 12?

He was close to being shown the door in 2011 and look how he turned out b& f in 2012. Some of these big forwards take a while to match it with the big boys but when they turn the corner - look out.

Re: Tom Lee Traded for our pick 12
I believe it was because they had previously nominated for the draft and not been picked up. There are some weird rules for GWS by the AFLplugger66 wrote:Old Mate wrote:

Re: Tom Lee Traded for our pick 12
I hope its not pick 12 for tom tit !
In red white and black from 73
Re: Tom Lee Traded for our pick 12
Great get I think, Harry Taylor was pick at this position in the draft at the same age by Geelong and look how his turned out. Likely trade another one of those picks for hickey , Stevens. We are doing a good job filling the age bracket. Who's to same pick 12 was gonna be a star, just ask Melbourne , at least now we have 3 different opportunitys

Re: Tom Lee Traded for our pick 12
Looks like it's open slather for GWS pre-listing players then - seems like they have the rights to anyone not AFL listed !!plugger66 wrote:Old Mate wrote:

Bottomless pit, much like their (and GC) 'salary cap'

Re: Tom Lee Traded for our pick 12
Not sure I am convinced trading 12 was smart. But if we did something like this...
24 for Jacobs or...
24 & Cripps for Stevens and Brown...then
43 for Hickey... it starts sounding great. So pick 12 & Ray for Hickey, Brown, Lee and Stevens is a lot better than pick 12 for Caddy.
Dunno, just trying to see the positive side of this trade as I'm still in a bit of shock to be honest (considering he was pick 60 & delisted & not picked up last year)...
