With Redman off the cards now, surely the crows look at Flanders from GC as a free agent, pretty good in the middle, bit of youth. If not, Brennan Cox is a pre agent, meaning he is a free agent next year. Freo might want to cash in on him early knowing he may leave for next to nothing, so maybe the crows could try spend some cash and really have one of the best young back lines in the league. Plus Butts could be of value in the near future for victorian clubs. If not, start manufacturing a tex replacement/plan post tex, i.e Lukosius from the suns, with Tyler Welsh in the draft next year, we don't really need a first next year, so maybe package that and another first and a himmelberg or something. Just hope the clubs really starts not only being aggressive in bringing polished talent that isn't that old, but also drafting elite talent.
 
Stengle doing coke didn't bother me, I think Thomas's issues are significantly more serious;

I'd do it.

High risk, high reward and tbh we are more of a chance of luring someone like Tarryn than an LDU.

He's the more realistic target.

Perhaps what I'd like most about this is it would be signalling where our priorities lie, and that's winning a football premiership and not giving nice guys a football career.

I’m not sure you understand what a free agent is.

Am seriously disappointed we couldn’t land Redman for free, but am keen on Stephens with what is currently available.

Stick him on a wing with the potential to move into the midfield, Cook on the other wing, and give Jones another crack in the guts while rotating through the wing as well.

BRL121 - not a Dylan Stephens fan? Hate Cook on the wing, or Jones in the middle?
 
I do love dropping back into Melbourne, eating some good food … having a great coffee … being reminded how irrelevant the Crows are.

Why can't we just make Elliott a defender? He played there as junior. He has skills, I thought in the one game he did play in defence this year he did pretty good, granted it was only half a game but it wasn't bad
Because hes busy kicking winners for collingwood.
 
Adam Tomlinson
Dylan Stephens
Bailey Williams

I think are all good options - not home runs, but improve some areas of the list.

Mason Redman is a very good player, but I'm not piping hot mad that we missed out on him.

Feel like his value was substantially overblown through the process, which is not uncommon for a FA target, but did get a little much.

But if he used that to dial up Essendon's offer, good on him.

The former. He hasn't made the grade at the Swans. We should be only trading in to get significant improvement to the side, as we have done the past two years. I fear he would be another Hately situation, and probably cost more.

Bailey Williams has re signed at Dogs already

Tomlinson is a good depth option to cover for Muz then pressure Butts

Fog won’t want to play on him in intra clubs

Stephens - doesn’t make our best 22 any better so it’s a NO from me . Prefer Cook and Dowling

I’m confident my mail was right ,we didn’t go higher than 620-640k and it was 4 years

I would have gone a touch harder but it’s done now and time to move on

Don’t trust Sam McClure’s mail
 
I had a feeling that may be the case.

Perhaps we should target players who are unhappy at their existing clubs, including non-FA.
Yep exactly , need to target certain clubs

Gold Coast is one because they’ve got 4-5 academy kids they’d want to draft to help with retention, so might need to trade out some ( and because they’re good players )

West coast Obvs


Maybe western bulldogs as there is always some rumblings there

Even freo after a bad year might be one to target
 
We need to start getting creative this trade period. I don’t know a lot about the inner workings of the draft but it’s obvious we should be dealing with Gold Coast this year, how many academy players do they have to bring in? I assume they will be trading out of the first round so bundle up our 2nd round picks for their first pick. Trade ROB for a 2nd rounder he’s expendable, playing Strachan in his place won’t make us any worse off, trade in a new back up ruck, use the first rounders to draft best midfielders available. Or we use our 2nd rounders to bring in Flanders and Hollands, draft best available midfielder with our first rounder.
 
We are not trading RoB
Stephens can get in the bin

I can see where the thinking starts but its a false economy - walking around Coles and spending money on commodities you already have

I dont mind the idea of approaching Gold Coast and asking the questions but it should be driven towards acquiring a genuine 10 year midfielder.

The question is are there any about and what is the Coles price?
