Value is perception. So it all depends on what list deficiencies you have as to what you will consider valuable to your strategy.
I would think Russell, Tape, Gorringe, Schade hold value. But again depends what you require.

Surely Gorringe is the only one of the above that has much value...and by much value..maybe a draft pick in the 30s..or a solid senior player to add some leadership - not sure West Coast has someone of equivalent value that you would want and we would trade for. Maybe a Gorringe and 2nd rounder for Matt Rosa? Something similar to that.

Russell is a dime a dozen midfielder who can run ok but cant kick and doesn't get enough of it
Tape and Cameron are Mid sizers with the skills of talls. Minimal attacking potential
Schade is a tall who is too light to play on half of the tall forwards..Could potentially get a gig as a 3rd tall
J. Hall is a high jumper who can't play AFL
Aaron Hall runs fast, kicks a few on the run but not sure he has ever kicked a set shot is scared of contact.

At least Gorringe is a 198cm athlete

I agree with what supernova said and to be honest I doubt any of these players would drastically improve your side. That being said a change of environment and a new set of coaches with a different view on how to develop them may be just the thing they need.

I'd be staggered if the Roos hadn't re-signed Goldstein by seasons end.

I haven't actually heard if he's putting off signing until the end of the season or whatever, but I imagine a 27 year old who's finally a free agent would want as much coin as he can get his hands on, relative to the likelihood of that club winning a premiership. I'd argue that the GC are closer to a premiership than North Melbourne is, with (besides a lack of depth) a decent ruckman being the missing piece of the puzzle. Might be able to lure him up to the coast with the expectation of a premiership, beautiful beaches, and the new training facilities being the best in the country only a couple of years after his arrival.

EDIT: Thought he was an OOC FA at the end of 2015, not 2016. My bad.

And how about Boston, when is he out of contract?

Edit: Oh and Scott Selwood I think could make decent trade bait to make a trade like that happen, not that I think the Eagles really need any more ruckmen.

We wont get rid of Boston , unless he is a total tool . Kid is class and his a gold coaster.
The next few weeks will determine Schade's career IMO .
J.Hall - gonski
Can see us trying to get something for Gorringe , not sure what he'd be worth.

I reckon GCS will be extremely keen to keep Schade on their list as he is a genuine key defender who is 21 years old and stands at 197cm tall.

The reality is the tall key forwards are getting taller (Boyd, Patton, Cameron, Daniher, Wright, Dixon, Lynch, etc) and clubs are going to have to be able to have tall backs are around the same height.

I hear people mention Schade is not "big" enough. I suppose if you follow that theory Joe Daniher probably should give football away!

Yeah we have pumped 4 years into him , would be a waste to let him go as he shows some sort of potential.
 
Agree completely. Schade will continue to fill out. You would think the club will offer him a 1yr extension at least as long as he shows enough this season. He is ahead of Leslie in the pecking order at the moment in the selectors eyes.

Like Eade said he is building, not re-building. So you would think no massive changes to our list. Just delist those who no longer serve a purpose, trade 1-2 that may request to leave, and hopefully pick up 1-2 mature A grade players that fill our deficiencies.
