I must be one of the very few who thinks Jack Silvagni is actually ok.
I think as a 3rd tall fwd he is ok, definitely not as bad as portrayed on here.
No star or anything like that just ok.

Yep, would take 2 1sts to get across I would say......
It's a strange one. Supposedly, he was on 6, we're paying 3 of it this year and then the rest of his Hawks contract is for 3. So we're only saving 3 this year and for future years. When you hear salaries being bandied around, surely Phillips is worth $300,000 a year? It doesn't sound like there was any real cap saving from shipping him out.
Pretty sure with us he was on 600k for next 2 years (2021 and 2022).
When he went Hawks they extended it by a year so they pay 3 x 300k and made us give him 300k for 2021.
So 600k saved year 2 and 300k this season.
Who knows these days. Less loyalty (barring Treloar). Think Buddy was closer to another flag with Hawks than Swans when he went there. Albeit free agent? Think Petracca is a year away from free agency?Melb are genuine flag team with the current list, with players like weideman, brown not even playing atm..... Sadly he is no chance of leaving.
End of next year yup. I think weideman is gettable myself.Who knows these days. Less loyalty (barring Treloar). Think Buddy was closer to another flag with Hawks than Swans when he went there. Albeit free agent? Think Petracca is a year away from free agency?
Weideman...
And Harrison Petty not getting games.
Either would be nice
Is Weideman that good? Haven’t seen much of him myself, but when I have u don’t see anything that really stands outEnd of next year yup. I think weideman is gettable myself.
He’s still young, kicked 7 in the 2’s lots of upside. Can’t recall us having anyone capable of that. Wouldn’t sell the farm but they have plenty of Talls and he’s out of contractIs Weideman that good? Haven’t seen much of him myself, but when I have u don’t see anything that really stands out

Would trade DeGoey for TracHow much would we be paying to pry Petracca from Melbourne? Imagine picking up Daicos and Petracca end of the year. As Bruce would say, “Delicious.”
Would take Degoey plus two firsts for trac atm.Would trade DeGoey for Trac
Yeah I’ve been saying to bring him home.End of next year yup. I think weideman is gettable myself.
I won’t argue with that. But what will he cost trade and cap wise?He's better then anything we have in the 2s atm at least.
And picks if need beWould trade DeGoey for Trac

starved of opportunities there. And I can’t imagine Melb have any cap space, especially considering they will need over 1mill for petracca. I’m just looking at decent forwards and realistically available. Weideman is one, though picks not salary could be our issue. McKay ooc as well but he’s worth a lot more in $ and trade value . king is OOC with suns next year, we could have a war chest to get him to Melb. Riccardi could come cheapish, though he’s not setting world on fire this year he played well last season. With hogan, finlayson and himmelburg he might also be gettable.I wouldn't of thought a whole lot cap wise given his standing in the game currently.

for mine weid/Riccardi are both options or we offer King big dollars next year
Being genuinely in the hunt doesn't mean too much to a significant number of players. Big money offers can persuade anyoneMelb are genuine flag team with the current list, with players like weideman, brown not even playing atm..... Sadly he is no chance of leaving.
a future first, no point having it get used for DaicosSo the question has to be; should we trade De Goey if we can get an early-ish first rounder?
I think we should. With the money we save, we front end Grundy’s deal and develop as many talented kids as we can. Later in Grundy’s deal we can chase FAs as we rise back up and become a destination club again.
Pendlebury, Howe, Sidebottom and Roughead have very little trade value and are better retained to help develop the kids.
Adams, Moore, Grundy, Crisp will still be around for the next time we contend, if we play our cards right.
Cox, Mayne, Greenwood, Madgen, Thomas... thanks for the memories.
Yes, or the trade happens during the draft.a future first, no point having it get used for Daicos
