Either way, still think Bennell is a risk we can take. Everyone is continuing to compare this to the Lovell trade but I don't think we can let a past decision what we are doing now. Especially how ever many years down the track it has been. Bennell is an extremely good footballer and would suit our needs perfectly.

I dont think we are going to get him. But I agree with you. It is nothing like the Lovett trade. Makes my blood boil when people say that. It is pretty clear they are comparing them because they are indigenous even though as players and people they have nothing in common. Lovett didnt play an AFL game until he was 23. Bennell already has almost 100. Just no comparison at all. Bennell is also a much better player. Tougher. More consistent. Lovett was also more troubled off field.

Trading Pick 5 for Bennell is just a no brainer.

Who made you judge and jury on who are 'dickheads'? Do you know Harley personally? If not stfu. If you are just basing your 'assessment' on a herald sun photo taken in 2012 (and article by slobbo) when he was 20yo - then I think maybe its you with the personality problem.

Ill say it again for the flogs among you. Lovett and Bennell have nothing in common. They are completely different.

We won't have pick 5, more like pick 8. Just do it.

Give them pick 5 or whatever it ends up, get Bennell and O'Meara.
Givw them pick 5, get Bennell and the pick they get for Dixon, probably 11 or 12.

Barry we have exactly nil chance of getting both. One maybe a miracle.

You are the one who seems to have personality problems, and a quick temper. Like you to tell me to shut the f*** up to my face, hero.

Oh here we go.
If you have a certificate saying you are a certified personality assessor then thats fine. You can call anyone you like a d**khead. Thats your specialist skill. You are just doing your job.

I think they will just say they are looking to trade him. Doubt they would give away a first rounder for nothing.

pick 5 for Bennell and O'Meara is a HUGE risk.

O'Meara's knee is completely buggered and he may never play again.

Bennell is a risk but worth it for a second rounder
