Re: Brain Lake
Disagree completely. Lake is 27, we should be drafting young players to build into a solid unit around our midfield.

Re: Brain Lake
Richmond could be a real threat with the second pick in PSD (I doubt Melbourne's interest.) I don't think Lake would dog us over and leave in the PSD so you'd have to give us something to make it worth our while.

Re: Brain Lake
Hah, good call RFC that was very sneaky of him that time.
Seriously though, this will just turn into those "I would give Troy Simmonds, pick 900, JON and a mars bar for Brian Lake" type threads
We would probably have to give up picks which in my opinion is not something the RFC will be interested in doing (and rightly so)

Re: Brain Lake
yeah you can do that but who are the kids going to learn off he is 27 and still has up to six years left in him. its all well and good to keep getting the kids into the side but you still need experience in the side

Re: Brain Lake
Yeah he has had a real good year but not sure i would let him name his price , not a Judd.
Would find it alot harder at Richmond than the Dogs , dont forget he is playing in a fairly handy backline at the Dogs.
I would rather throw money at a Joel Selwood than Lake yeah out of contract and all but you would still have to give up alot as Melbourne would definatly have a go.
Either way personally not interested in Lake.

Re: Brain Lake
Yeah people always forget the opposition side needs to be happy.
The formula for trade discussions is about what you said although then someone comes on and defends on of the things we are offering up for trade saying that it is of some value and so why should we part with it.
Dont give up a mars bar

Re: Brain Lake
No we shoudn't.
Develop our own players and not try and take short cuts.
High quality players don't just go in the PSD either, if we want him we would have to give up pick 3 probably. or our second round pick, and find another one to give the dogs.
Good player but no thanks, lets make a team the correct way for a change

Re: Brain Lake
Getting a brain lake could only be a good thing. At last we'd have a reservoir of knowledge to draw on.

Re: Brain Lake
to be frank when I look at the gaps in our side, FB doesn't jump from the page...if he was to fall through to the PSD of course we'd look to snaffle him but apart from that we'd be bloody crazy to off load R1 selections

Re: Brain Lake
Being that there is no point bottoming out over the next couple of years with the new teams coming into the league (yeah good move picking up Graham in your first year Wallace you f**king idiot)
And being that we potentially have a lot of cap space with veterens retiring,
If it is going to otherwise go unused then why not throw a ton of money at Lake if there is no-one else to poach in the preseason draft (trading draft picks is obviously off the table).
Other then the fact that is a damn good player and is the general we need down back, worst comes to the worst you could always trade him to Sydney or the gold coast a year later (or enable us to move on a Mcguane).
At this point we have to be ruthless and think outside of the square if we are going to get anywhere.
Realistically we aren't going to get him for nix in the preaseon however why not offer him 500k over 4 years? (heavily front loaded if salary cap permits) at worst it may force another bulldog out that we can snap up (if they have anyone else uncontracted).
