Trade Week

Postby Pidge » Mon Sep 15, 2008 6:58 pm

Trade Week will be interesting this year. What are everyone's thoughts on which players will move clubs and where will they go?

Well I'm rather hoping the Crows can pick up Buddy Franklin and Nick Riewoldt, for say Jericho, Johncock, McGregor, and perhaps one other. :wink:

Trade week goes for too long. Should be 48 hrs. Anyway will be interesting to see if Johncock does want to leave. Maybe Thomson for Johncock. Maybe Didak will be on the market would be nice to see him in a Port jumper. Not sure bout many others, dont think the crows will get a forward, could go for some pace in Varcoe.

There was talk on the idiot box tonight about the crows chasing Koschitske which i think would be good for the crows. Although he isn't a star he would certainly add something to the forward line IMO.

Head over to Mother England. That trade window starts in May and ends in September. This is the root cause of all the worlds alcoholism problems.

I think trade week will be spectacularly unspectacular this year. All talk and no action.

The big movements will be in the "delisting week". Hang on to your hats - I think a lot of clubs will be delisting 5-6 players as the draft is deep and the Gold Coast is circling ready for next year.

After this, clubs will be moving to cement contracts for their stars beyond the window of opportunity when the Gold Coast can poach 16 uncontracted players.

Can't see there being any magical forward fix. Need to develop Walker and get games under his belt. Sellar needs to get serious and make a difference . A fit and confident Hentschell would make a massive difference.

Trade Possibilities
Gamble (hopefully he has the shits when Geelong don't play him in the GF)
Staker - the rumour may have merit. Craigy would love his ability to play up forward , down back and in the midfield.
Tiller - starting to develop for the Bulldogs
Shannon Hurn - would be great to have him running through the midfield and off half back


we also badly need a hard tackling crumber. Can't believe both alwyn davey & wonnamaeri have been picked up from under our noses

Is there any good crumbing potential in the SANFL ?

Also Sharples from sturt will develop he is only 17ish and will be a gun already played state footy and wants to play for the crows. Josh D is probably a bit small he can handle the smaller bodies of SANFL but would be found wanting in the AFL

Is Cousins tied to West Coast?
If so, under what clause- was he listed this year?

The Bulldogs want a big forward. They will go after Barry Hall. If they dont get him, they will try and lure Nathan Thompson out of Retirement.
