l would just settle on both Ellis & Conca. Both make mistakes but both are very coachable. 2 more years & they will be very solid players for our club

Ellis is a wingman the others can play inside with the big boys

LMAO at those that think Adams is better than Conca

picked that insight up from watching 1 GWS game a year?

lololol




I reckon he is and I rate Conca, except for his kicking.

That's unfortunate Tony
Conca's disposal is better than Adams', think he is a classier player

So two first round picks and a player for Big Boy?
Where have all the whingers gone?

Yeah now the big boy trade has evened up with the extra pick swaps. No qualms from me :thumbsup

tigs mentioned this in another thread but I'll post what C4[2]Yo`DooR on BF has said so far:


Been told the Tigers are meeting with GWS this morning - wonder if a late deal could be in the works?

Sorry gang - got it wrong.

Meeting with the Gold Coast re: Pick Upgrade (my guess is going after 27?)


http://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/trade-discussions-iii.1037848/page-31#post-30720385

Would have to be something decent to upgrade from #50 to #27.

Hampson is from the Gold Coast isn't he? lol :p


http://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/trade-discussions-iii.1037848/page-31#post-30720436

Pick #27 is only my guess,

But I can't see any other decent upgrades? (unless the Tigers were after Pick #43) ... maybe its part of a bigger deal?! I'll keep you posted.

I have a sneaky sneaky feeling (just putting the dots together):

First he tells me that Richmond are meeting with GWS, THEN, says Richmond are meeting with GC for a "pick upgrade".

Pick #12 + #27 for Shiel?

Richmond may be involved with another trade, as Brisbane looks to poach David Astbury who still remains uncontracted for 2014

Would like either trade;

Astbury and McGuane (Bris) ---> Pick 29 (Rich)

OR

Astbury and McGuane (Bris) ---> Pick 29 (Rich) ---> Nahas and Pick 29 (GWS) ---> Shiel (Rich)

I want Astbury to go around again with us. Maybe trade him to Brisbane if they offer us Daniel Merrett. ;D

What is the go with Matt Dea? Out of contract and hasn't re-signed?

Trade him for a third or fourth round pick!

"C4[2]Yo`DooR" usually has the good oil -  one of the more trustworthy sources on BigFools.
