Essendon with pick 35 would probably get it done.
But if we were to trade with Essendon then I would hope we might go after one of their numerous key backs for Stevens + a pick.

Pears' manager was on radio this morning and said quite unequivocally that he would not be leaving Essendon. I doubt Essendon are considering trading him.

If we get an end of r2 compo for Lynch (currently p43), what about:
Stevens + p43 for p32?
Stevens + p43 for p32?
Its so annoying how we have to wait to see what the compo pick will be...this would surely be holding up trades this week and next!
If not Pears then maybe Hooker?

Don't see why, considering Pears has shown a lot more than Stevens and on top of that is a KPP.
Not all his games were average.
Would've played more if he wasn't crueled by injuries.
Yes, he's short. But he's basically the same height as Glass.
Hardly sought after seems irrelevant.
Pears' value should be greater than Stevens'.
50?! I'm confiedent Koby Stevens will go on to have at least a decent AFL career. You dont usually pick a player at 50 who goes on to have a decent career. I'd think he'd be worth closer to the 30 - 40 mark especially with 4 clubs showing interest

So you have seen all of Pears' games?
i have seen around 6-7 live and probably 10 gamnes on tv ----------- Nothing special mate
What do you see in him that has impressed you to believe that he is any good & what has he done that you mentioned

So 6-7 games constitutes his prospects?

Pears is not a third tall, although he could be played as one, his first two years were brilliant, he was defending well and rebounding out of defence, I can understand why you would think he is average but injuries have held him back. KPP's who have shown quite a bit are worth more than inside mids who are yet to show anything at AFL level, lets hope Koby can do that whether he ends up at Essendon or not.

Completely agree with Tundrawolf. I have no idea whether you guys are even watching WAFL games but Kobe Steven's disposal is very very average. I would say almost worse than Swifts.
Koby Stevens had a game earlier this year against GWS where he had the ball 19 times and supporters were raving about his performance.... yet I was shaking my head at how he continually was turning the ball over, missing targets and choosing the wrong option.
The funny thing is Swift used to cop it in the neck from supporters for his disposal... yet Stevens who was worse was the golden child and people looked past it... just like Eric Mackenzie's disposal is not talked about. The fact Swift kept getting picked ahead of him says all you need to know.

even though you obviously see alot more of him than i do, i tend to agree. his disposal is quite ordinary, although at afl level he has been sub affected a couple of times, which is a role he really isn't suited to and hasn't helped his cause.
That being said essendon are obviously interested and see something in him (which I don't agree with), so what would be an appropriate deal? pick 48?

Anything below pick 38 and we've ripped you off.
Man, everywhere I look you are trolling your own team.

Really? where else?
I mean seriously lets be realistic about this... the guy has played 11 games in 3 years... averages 9 disposals a game.... has dodgy disposal and can't get a game for us.
He was drafted as a 2nd rounder.... what do you expect we are going to get back for him? A 1st round pick?
9 disposals a game from 33% game time... Sub roles skew stats.
koby hasnt played because we have had priddis, kerr, shuey, scott selwood and nicknat all playing the inside role. he has played well enough in the WAFL to play a decent amount of football at worse clubs. his disposal is fine for an inside mid and his tackling and pressure football is great, especially for a 21 year old. thats why multiple clubs are interested in him.
a third rounder would be fair normally, somewhere out around the 40+ mark, but i can see with a few clubs interested that he might garner a late second rounder, around 25-35 or so
dunno, we will see how it goes. just from a list management perspective, im hopeful that hes part of the deal for cripps. getting a mid to replace swift and koby would be great.
