Seems to be more team oriented now. Thought he was good yesterday. Id be reticent to trade. Both Bolton and Stack provide something good.

Trading for Cerra should include McIntosh and a pick not Bolton or Stack.

The latest I have heard on that front is that it is likely Geelong, not Freo that we have to satisfy to get Cerra.
,
Dockers want Kelly and it is likely that a third party will need to be involved to get the trade done. No specific mention of the Tigers, just that another team will need to help the deal.

The big issue is how the hell we do a deal with Geelong at that level.

Bolton is exciting, fast, great foot and handball skills, defends well and does the 1%ers, going very well

"Once again, we've had some guys come and go in those positions, but to see Shai finally, I don't want to say arrive, because we know he's a good player, but to see the talent he could be is really exciting," Hardwick said.

"He kicked the first goal, but he laid a crunching tackle and that's the area of his game we've been onto him to deliver.

"I think he had six tackles tonight and that's what gets him a game every week.

"He's got more offensive ability than most players in the AFL, but once he shows us defensively what he's all about – and we're seeing that now – he's a really valuable player for us going forward."

Reckon Fremantle will all over a straight swap for Cerra now...a trade they'd clearly win at this point.... :shh

I reckon Bolton has more attacking upside than Daniel but Rioli (at this stage) is much better defensively.  That gap should close pretty quickly if he is given game time.

Cerra's currently experiencing a severe case of second year blues but will be a player...would take McIntosh and first round pick at least which I'd rather use for other things... :shh :shh

Stack will stay , may not have a choice re: Bolton :shh

Best thing Shai can do for us now is keep playing the way he has since he came back in. Cement his spot come end of the season and maybe kick a few crunch goals in a big final...
