Re: All things Trade Week
Akermanis has mentioned it a few times (may even be in his book I think). Looked quite an exciting player not too long ago, wouldn't mind picking him up on the cheap tbh.

I would support that
Another player I am curious about is Ahmed Saad.
Anybody know much about him?
Tested very well in Repeat Sprints (1st), 20m sprint (2nd) and Agility test (2nd).
Apparently one of the best small crumbing forwards in the VFL who has amazing tackling pressure and is very nippy, i,e. uses his speed. Is still very raw having played only 5 years coming from a soccer background.
Could be worth a shot, likely to go late 2nd round to rookie draft perhaps.

A family friend was on the Sydney list when Eade coached and yes Eade is an idiot!

Re: All things Trade Week
Reminds me of Dalziell.
Obvious flaws, Hill=Lazy ... Dalziell=Disposal
Comes down to whether Eagles can get rid of the negative trait where the other club had no luck.
Weak draft, our picks will buy lower quality this year, so as long as we don't pay too much, it might be worth taking a risk.

i live in melbourne now and northern bullants seem to always be on tv as the VFL game of the week and thats who saad plays for.
most comparible to david rodan in build and style.
very zippy and when involved can be super influencial but often goes missing in games.
not goal saavy enough to be a forward pocket player, not classy or built well enough to play full time midfielder.
would be handy, but def not a long term prospect i dont think.
Seriously, this sort of batshit insanity is exactly what I need to make myself feel sane.
Keep it up people!

Jesus people. This board has blown up during trade week. Give our list managers a bit more credit than to suggest that.

Re: All things Trade Week
Could do the opposite. For the pick we will likely use this is a worthwhile deal.
He can play just needs a new environment.

If the Hill rumours are true, maybe this could happen:
Ebert + 45
for
28 + 51
51
for
Hill
Out:
Ebert, Jones, Stevenson, Dalziell
In
23, 28, Hill, Hams.

Reported that Port are considering offering 28 and 33 plus another pick for Ebert..

Re: All things Trade Week
Thanks larrikin.
Yes, good deal if true.. and I think that may put us in front somewhat as we were unlikely to use 45 anyway.
This is correct.. my post was worded arse about.

So you're saying Cox, Kerr and Priddis for Josh Hill!
Re: All things Trade Week
Certainly a very good outcome, if true
Shuey took the heat during and after the collingwood final with 17-19 posessions and 7 tackles.
Yet, I recall Ebert had 7 touches in total and was the obvious player to be dropped. His mental fragility with the dummy spit has been exposed and it is time to move on. 28 and 33 would be outstanding.

@BMCK - Apparently 33 is on the table from Port as well

We won't need to involve Port in the Hill trade, he's not that high of a commodity.
Besides the above, 3 way trades don't happen very often.. we on BF are very good at doing this though.
Suggest third rounder for hill at best, and as reported Port to give 28,33 for Ebert plus later pick from us.
We won't get Clark, we don't have the currency.

Any interest in Mitch Morton as a replacement for Ebert?
He is on the outer at Ricmond and would come very cheap? He has had problems at WCE before (mainly attitude) but does have good skills and athleticism.
The call comes down to do we think that with the current strength of our leadership group and coaching are we able to rehibilatate him? I am thinking perhaps but would love to hear other view points.

Re: All things Trade Week
Josh Hill can play footy. Yes, he has been disappointing for the past two years but he has also been trying to leave the club during that time too. There is no way you will ever play your best footy if your heart is not in it.
Yes, he does appear to be a little soft and lazy but that will soon be thumped out of him at West Coast. The Sydney Swans have a remarkable history of picking up other players who weren't doing much at their respective clubs who have excelled at the Swans. There is no reason to think that if we do get Hill that he can't be a solid contributor. And if we get him for a late draft pick that we weren't going to use then it is just a bonus.
