Trade and PSD offerings

[mightytiges]

Gilmore or Green for us

I didn't realise Green was already 26 y.o. so I rather go for the younger Gilmore who turns 23 in March if he quits Freo. They are both roughly the same size. Gilmore could possibly also solve our back-pocket/small defender problem. 

Wallace offloaded Montgomery in a swap for Eagleton didn't he when he was coach of the Doggies?

And the PSD becomes weaker by the day .

The way it's going we might as well pass and save the money if there's nobody semi-decent left at pick 5 .

Freo's Daniel Gilmore has re-signed as well.

In yesterday's Age (Sat 29/10/05) it says that Brent Guerra has been de-listed by the Saints.
At 23, with 60 odd games and a fair bit of mongrel in him should the Tigers look at him ???

IMO Guerra is Byron Pickett without the pace and foot skills. He can regularly shirtfront opponents but he'll only ever play in a pocket or off the bench as he's too slow to play midfield. His field kicking is ordinary although he knows where the goals are. Port and now the Saints have delisted him because he's only a fringe player.

Port traded him, they didn't delist him.

I like his type of player, aggresive, no nonsense, although im not a fan of his hitman tendencies!

In a perfect world i'd like to have him on our list, but, we have a lot higher priorities then his type of player!

my bad. You're right Razor - Port got pick 39 for him. I heard from my Dad (Port supporter) at the time that the Power wanted to offload him anyway as Guerra would do well at SANFL level but rarely showed anything in the AFL.

At the Saints he got a handful of bags especially in 2004 (7 against the Eagles) with a decent return of 29 from 18 for that year but over his 96 game career he's averaged only 8 possessions and less than a goal a game. This year he really struggled.

[letsgetiton!]

bruno could be a handy player 4 us. he was never really given a fair go , and we are the weakest team in the afl by a mile so having a player with his balls in the team can only help. i say if no other better player is on offer take him on a one yr contract

Bolded players i think we should look at drafting.

Italiced players interest me but am not sure if they would suit us.

Davidson was cut because of injury while the others mostly played at VFL/SANFL/WAFL level. I mistakenly had Paul Thomas on the above list but he was retained by the Dons.

Is it more worth our while passing on our PSD pick and selecting more rookies rather than picking up someone who'll spend their time playing for Coburg? The cost of a senior listed player is 4-5 times that of a rookie. 

Of the four picks before ours, McLaren and Camporaele you would think will be two gone.  Kasey Green will probably be another. Not much of a choice left .

[Razorblade]

Davidson, Hunt, Vanshaik and Gilham would all quality for the rookie list methinks, maybe not the first two?

I was suprised the Dee's gave Vanschaik the flick after 1 year, i heard he had done ok.

He was very highly rated as a 16yo junior then the poor guy done his knee!

As a young ruckman maybe the knee has affected his ability to jump.

Yeah Davidson and Hunt turn 23 early next year so that knocks them out as far as a rookie spot goes. Gilham at 21 is another injury-plagued youngster - 10 week groin injury then a AC joint injury.

Matthew Lappin has re-signed with the Blues for 2 years: http://carltonfc.com.au/default.asp?pg=news&spg=display&articleid=235840

And to the relief of many of us lol, Ben Haynes has agreed to 2-year deal at West Adelaide: http://www.westies.com.au/detail.htm

[Life goes on]

He has agreed to a 2 year deal-conditional that he doesnt get picked up in draft.
Also has a job organised as well if he doesnt get drafted
