For the right price - yes, we should.
We lack pace so we get rid of someone with pace. Makes no sense. As for the right price nearly everyone is tradable but that odes usually happen.

Unbelievable!

I come home from work and see some of our fans have lost the plot....(not unusual, though).

Why not trade goddard and Rooey while we are at it?

FFS he has been injuried in both GFs. Can't some of you people process that? You seem to have the memory capabilities of small insects.

Last yr he should have won the norm smith medal in the gf. This yr he has been out with a long term injury.

We need more run & carry players that can kick goals, not less. :roll:

Again, he's been out for most of this yr, and hasn't been able to get consistency, with a good pre-season, he will be fine...

Brooks, Watts and Lovett. Keep our first round pick, as our club just can't seem to get the right trade for them.

When fit he's one of the few players who give real drive through the middle. Let him get back into shape and hang onto him, I say.

One question for mine would be - does the have OP?

I hope his current predicament is only transitory and he can recover to full pace.


I've never seen a bad St.Kilda player - that's just how they are.

We need time to re asses without knee jerk reactios.
I haven't especially thought this through, but I'm going to disagree and say we should build an entirely new game plan revolving on knee-jerk reactions.

It may be worth throwing out the entire list as well, but we may want to not stop and ensure we don't think about that one first.

Keep Gram, when fit, he's awesome.

Yes, we need more with run and carry, and we need players that can find targets also.

When trading you should always use kilograms, never grams.


The more you know, the more you know you don't know.
When I was a young child, I knew that I knew so much about so much.
Now that I am old and know so much more, I know that I know so much about so little, and so little about so much.

We probably should NOT trade anyone of our top 10! 8-)


This is a team game and there is no room for individuals who think they are above walking through the fire.

what worries me over this whole discussion is ...
I really thought we were over playing injured players

and for effsake in a bloody GF replay when he was obviously hampered in the first one???

someones head should roll over this one surely , but Grammies ...I'm not so sure


we certainly are desperate for another one or two with some pace , and if we can trade like for like with maybe a bit more youth and upside well then I'm tending to think why not??

But who was kidding who with his selection last Sat??
