And we would be trading them out to get maybe a player as good.

We have precedence with Membrey delisting a player to help them get to their club of choice.

Sam Collins is going to GCS as its 3rd state league player.

Was interesting on Trade Radio where Port Adelaide & Carlton openly said that whoever GCS draft, they will be looking to get them in a couple of years when they move home. GCS have no chance.

Makes sense for him if he can find a club to get more game time.

I could be wrong but from the surface and reading into reports, we had some interest but I think that we cooled on Duryea as much as him on us.

The article suggested Carlton see him as a DFA as opposed to trading for him. That shows Newman's value really.

I don't think it is concerning at all when the player stays at their own club. It is not like a player we targeted changed clubs or chose GWS over us.

Lol

They would be out of the May race with Beams

Only change I could see is Renshaw in for labuschagne. Would be harsh though. I’d say no change.

Carlton would probably pay him more (Not ridiculous money, just more) as well on a longer contract. I reckon we would sign him for 1 year at close to minimum wage.

To be fair, Robinson was pretty good with some of his tagging roles latter in the year. More impact to the outcome of a game than Newman had.

I am pretty sure we delisted T. Membrey so that he could get to the Saints rather than trying to work out a trade.

Haha, random coincidence.

I have a feeling he is out the door. On a side note, its quite funny that the Swans website have deleted his thumbnail on the team list.

If a team doesn't win a premiership it doesn't mean their game plan is bad, or their game plan won't hold up at the pointy end of the season. I think that our coaching and game plan is horrible at the moment especially with the team we have. If we don't change this, I don't think that we can...

Exactly, if we didn't want the player we are in no obligation to take them.

For my quick 5 minute list I did quite well compared to the professionals (I didn't look at rookies either).

Who in that draft would be above him? Clayton Oliver (Pick 4) then anyone else? Those around the mark Charlie Curnow (Pick 12), Jade Gresham (Pick 18), Eric Hipwood (Pick 14), Tom Phillips (Pick 58), Daniel Rioli (Pick 15), Tom Doedee (Pick 17), Blake Hardwick (Pick 44),...... There are a few...

A youtube video but it sums up our trade week thus far: Note: players coming to our club

Jordan Roughead would be on near the minimum wage. He will be in their VFL team as a backup in case Grundy goes down. Potentially they could look at him in defence if signing Langdon means they are out of the race for May

The way we play doesn't suit the AFL. You won't win a premiership with our game plan.

He is gettable. Seeing as Port gave Pittard for free, Hombsch you think would be released for a 4th/5th rounder. As they were the 2 players Port told were not wanted. Would he be better than say Collins from the VFL? I don't know much about Hombsch.

I won't even start on the salary requirements, but on May, GCS would get a top 3 pick next year with a free agency offer. I think that he would definitely improve our team and release Rampe. What could we possibly give up to get him? I don't think that our 1st next year, and Saints 2nd round...

Just one thing I wanted to say. Trading for the sack of trading never works well. Port last year, Crazy Vossy @ Brisbane, etc.... You need to identify targets that are going to improve the footy club. If you can't, go to the draft.

Scully is better than Shiel. What is scaring me about him, is if GWS take a low pick for him is his body cooked? Scully I would only want on a 2 year contract max. Maybe a 3rd year if he hits KPIs.

You trade out your 2019 first, you can't trade out any other of your future picks. So we would have 1 2019 first & Saints 2019 2nd to use in trades.

Collins the ex Freo player dominated the VFL this year. Could be worth a look
