Melbourne players that would suit us and possible tradeables:
Bate
Green
Bruce
Warnock
Maloney
The mids are mostly senior and won't see the next melbourne premiership and would be gettable. Bate would be a beauty as he is a bit like Hayes stands up in a tackle and keeps smashing himself into contests.
I would also look at Morton from Richmond and play him more like his brother at melbourne, he can kick a goal which would be handy also.

I reckon what we are missing is a true big key backman.
By getting a backman who is bigger in stature, we can then free up one of our runners who have had to play bigger over the past couple of seasons.
I've been calling for this since Luke Penny retired. We never actually replaced him.
They walk amongst us...

Would be the worst trade in history.
"The inches we need are everywhere around us. They're in every break in the game. Every minute, every second. On this team we fight for that inch. On this team we tear ourselves and everyone around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when we add up all those inches that's gonna make the f***in' difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying!'

So we've officially moved on from "welease Bwendon to go forward" to "fwee Tham to go forward"!Batnoe wrote:Warnock is a great defender, it will free Gilbo to play fwd
From what I saw in the GFx2, I'm more concerned with getting Milne and Schneider to play forward: both spent a helluva lot of time in the back half.
As for the trade, I'd be sorry to see Geary go, as I rate him. Don't care much re Eddy. Warnock is quite a good player IMO.

I dont really like the sound of this. I think Eddy and Geary is way too high a price to pay for what we would get.
I am always the first to admit I am too soft hearted about our boys but I would really hate to see either of them go. Maybe I am being too sentimental but it just doesnt sit right.

Im not generally big on trading average players for average players, but in this case, I'd take the trade...
Especially if we can upgrade a draft pick...
Geary has shown abit, but has a lot to work on, and I'd be happy to see Eddy moved on, as he can't cut it..
Warnock is ok imo, and if Frawley didnt come on so much this year, would be seen as a solid, strong defender with a good future...
Did good jobs on Hall and J. Brown in the past...
But as I stated earlier, would like a draft upgrade in there somewhere to get it done...
