What the hell do you make of that rambling
aah parrot vs richmond.. One of the leagues great match-ups.
Aints say no to trading stars Oh well. It was a nice dream (again)...
We really should package our pick 44 and 60 something for a pick in the 30s.
We don't have enough space on our list for 4 picks!
Expect a quiet week: RattenRatten says the Blues won't enter discussions with rival teams in search of a particular type of player.
"We'll be fairly [quiet], I suppose, not proactive," he told media before the start of trade week meetings at Etihad Stadium on Monday morning.
"We'll just sort of listen and see what goes on."
St Kilda star Brendon Goddard has been speculated as a possible Carlton target.
Ratten didn't confirm or deny interest in acquiring the 26 year-old.
"There's a lot of rumours and innuendo that goes on at this time of the season, so let's wait and see," he said.
They said no to trading Luke Ball and look how that went.
Just a thought...we need to take three picks in the ND right?
We have one in Dylan, could we look to upgrade a rookie or two (Curnow & Tuohy) and bypass a weak draft altogether?
Leaves us with first and second round picks to play out some trade fantasies?

Even if we upgrade our 2nd rounder by trading our 3rd and 2nd we'll need to let go of 2 players on top of Austin (presuming he's delisted) and Houlihan.
Someone has to go. Bower, O'hAilpin, Lucas, McLean, Kerr, maybe Davies?
Ball was out of contract - Goddard isn't
My point was that the Saints don't exactly kick butt at the trade table.
Keen thought. We should start a thread on this...
Would think Austin's fate could be linked to Bower's. Would be a bold move to see the back of both. I still maintain that Bower is walk-up 22 if fit, despite the short memory brigade who seem to be very much in the majority. If he stays I would think Austin's fate is sealed.
McLean could and should go for a charity pick if another club picks up his tab. One of Kerr and Davies should be in the gun IMO.
Will any of those picks be used to upgrade a rookie?We have Dylan for #98. Good work Blues.

I would be pretty surprised if Curnow is elevated. There is no reason to, unless we end up trading a lot (4) of our fringe players.
By all means elevate Tuohy, but keep Curnow as our nominated rookie.
Will any of those picks be used to upgrade a rookie?
