Straight swap Caddy for Lids is a win IMESHO

He doesn't want to be here anymore so let him go,  if it doesn't cost a pick then it's a win

[Yeahright]

I still think our pick 6 plus B Ellis and B Lennon for Prestia and GCS pick 8. They move up two rungs to get their desired academy pick and get two right age midfielders and we retain round 1 pick and get Prestia

I think most would say they walked out winners but I would do that in a heartbeat

Most people who are objective would say:-
Lennon is an unfulfilled dud with issues attitudinally
Bellis is a vanilla outside player who turns it over

Why do people who say we overrate our list overrate our list?

Disagree
I think a lot would say
Lennon is a kid we don't know much about
Ellis is good he gets lots of the ball
There are a lot of nuffers out there

Are you implying I'm overrating our list? Because on one hand I say "most people" which does not specifically mean I agree and on the other hand I say I'd do it in a heartbeat which means I obviously don't rate them as much as the others

[one-eyed]

The Cats are also not advanced on a deal for Brett Deledio who could yet end up remaining at the Tigers.

Richmond has asked for Josh Caddy who said he was open to a move if Geelong wanted it, but that he was happy at the Cats.

Geelong is understood to want a second-round draft pick from Richmond, as well as Deledio, if they are to concede Caddy.

I'm not implying anything, I just cannot see how any club would see Lennon or Bellis as being anything more than most of us see by going most weeks.

Maybe you misinterpreted what I said. By most I meant the public and by they I meant GC

All good, agree with general wazza -  just look up footy wire and he averages 25 possessions so he's a gun. I just can see GC or any club being that under prepared to get sucked into his type of short comings

I didn't believe this a week ago but I've swung around

Lewis is 30 and whilst he is slow, is only a year older than lids who is hampered by injury. Yet dees will get him for what pick 60. This is what we face next year if we hold him

A young player like Caddy who can tackle is a win, as Hardwick has ruined lids to the point he wants out.

Letting him go for Caddy is the best thing for this club. The question is will the cats do it?

Do u think tardwick would realise he's the reason?

[WilliamPowell]

I just read on twitter that if we had picks 22 (people suggesting will get that with prestia if we give up pick 6) & 27 then that would be enkught acadamey points for pick 8

Now i dont understand these Academy point calcs but i have to say that if those picks combined could get us back into the forst round then the prestia deal doesnt look so bad.

Point is anoyher reason why Caddy as a straight swap for Lids is the way tp go. Cats want pick 27, we need to keep it now more than every

[big tone]

B.Ellis is staying

Poor decision by the club if true

Extremely poor

Pathetic actually

Hmm. Credit to you WP, you called for him to be traded last year - when his value was highest - and that would have been the correct move. Would have got a first rounder for him then.
Even if we could move him on now, a 2nd rounder would be overs. Shame we couldn't do a Pick 6 and Ellis for Prestia and pick 10 or something.

I knew BEllis was a dud in his second year.
And I hate him.
