Traded Will Hoskin-Elliott [traded to Collingwood for their 2017 2nd rd pick]

[Kangaroos4eva]

If you're basing that interest off Joyce's interview I wouldn't read too much into it - the host put WHE's name to him and he just gave the standard straight bat answer.

The sort of trade we should be targeting though - keep our better picks and try and find value via trades for prospects who are seeking opportunity or out of favour.

That interview and other rumours (not the Twitter kind). Pies in box seat though.

I'd love to have him at North. Perhaps a chance for us to swoop in while the Pies are busy with others. Seems unlikely though.

Our club is interested in him apparently.

Not sure a half forward is really an area of need to be honest.
Wood, Garner, Turner, Higgins all very capable, with good exposed form in that spot.
I get what you are saying in terms of bringing in relatively young talent, looking for value and Hoskin-Elliot certainly represents that. It's far from the worst idea, but I would think there would be other priorities

I think we'd see him as a winger/tall midfielder. Agree it wouldn't be a huge priority though. I would guess he's Pies bound as, like Steele, there has been smoke there for a couple of months now.

I don't rate hoskin Elliot, small frame and doesn't get enough of it, hope he goes to the pies

No, no. Really, you guys can have him. I hear he's almost as good as Jed Anderson.

If whe was on fire I wouldn't piss on him

 

[legendstatus]

The guy is rubbish why would anyone want someone like him? just flick him to us for a round 5 pick... no drama's that's all he is worth based on some of the comments here.

Prostrate problems?

Interesting that he hasn't nominated a prefered club yet, guessing he hasn't made up his mind, or, hasn't found a club willing to come to terms yet.

I wouldn't piss on him either; that's a weird thing to do.

After hearing his management on trade radio early this week I gather he would be happy to stay if nothing could be worked out, He is contracted still and was close to a game late in the season in a top 4 side. The GWS cap squeeze is probably the main reason he would leave (their decision as much as his).

He can add to the other duds at the colliwobbles , Buckley panicking and trying to add anyone to the list

 

[Apex36]

I like how people keep saying that Buckley is the list manager at Collingwood. Good for a laugh.

Looking at some of your posts, I can see that you like to dribble. I know that you have been on the site for nearly a whole month now but have you thought of taking your crap to Bay 13. They have threads there which would be perfect for people of your calibre.

We've been ignoring him on the Dogs board for some time now.

It looks like something he recently posted on the main board has seen the ban hammer applied.

Most of the posters from your board are pretty good, but jeez there's been a few newbies pop up recently who are total flogs...

I guess that's what happens when success comes your way. Lots of new passengers on the doggies train. Toot toot!

Don't forget Adam H will be making new accounts every day.

Mate the arseclown you are talking about is an alt account. We have enough of our own flogs without Saints or North flogs creating alt accounts.

On WHE what is his value? Surely GWS owe you a freebie post Shaw and Treloar trades?

I'd be shocked if we paid any more than a third given his career averages are garbage. A few flashes of brilliance and a high draft placing 5 years ago don't = high trade value.

 

[Orange Agent]

Havent spoken to our list manager, doesnt wanna give up draft picks . This should be easy.

Hine seemed pretty adamant that we wouldn't be using our existing second rounder on him.

So looks like it may be something else. Potentially packaging up picks and pick upgrades.
