I don't think Tambling will be traded and why should he be, the guy will be a gem in a decent side so lets wait until we have him in our decent side eh.. :thumbsup

If unfortunately he is traded then he is worth more than whats being talked about on this forum, he was fourth pick and we would have to be compensated accordingly. Remember Ottens, we had our behinds ripped appart during that deal didn't we!!! Lets not have that happen again!!! I would be happy to trade up the following players with LATE round picks for mature experienced players.

Edwards
Connors (off field too dodgy)
White
Collins
Farmer
Nahas (really like him but might add value)
Graham
Hislop
Thompson
McMahon
Morton
Post
Rance
King

If we are starting to build then lets do it properly, surley the picks and players we could generate through trade week and for draft picks using this lot could bring the next finals side.

personally Ive had enough of anyone from Port Adelaide. We should be trying to get some key position players that can play forward and back. Good midfielders are always going to be available but good talls are whats hard to find.

How good would a Mitch Clark be at Richmond right now or in three years time?

Ask why would Joel McDonald want to come to Melbourne.

I really think we need to stop dreaming, although it's great isn't it.. ;D. I know we are APPARENTLY going to be aggressive during trade week but really what have we got to be aggressive with.

yes it would be good, but unfortunately we have to put up with the greats exploits of Troy Simmonds. :help

Richmond should target 2 players in this fashion- 1 of them has to be a ruck, the other can be a Boak type. Players look at footy as though its a job. Convincing 1 or 2 to come over shouldnt be an issue if the offer is good.

i like Morton, id rather him than no listen Reiwoldt ... he will become nothing ..

That's a big call. One I certainly don't agree with. Jack had shouldered a huge load this year and is only 21.
More upside for Jack to come especially with Post, Astbury, Vickery and Griffiths yet to stamp their mark as a KPP in the forward line.

He has developed a kicking habit and a habit to crack under pressure but i think we would get a good pick or player for him

Foley for a 10-12 pick (Hawthorn would snap him up)
Tambling for a 20 pick (St.Kildas first pick)
Jackson and our 2nd rounder pick 29 to Port (The need a harder body to compensate the run of Rodan, Pearce and Cassissi) for Robbi Gray.

We lose:
Foley
Jackson
Tambling

Gain:
10-12 pick
Robbie Gray

Be a reasonable start having Robbie Gray and having picks 4, 10, 20 (what ever our 2nd pick would be)

sorry i dont understand what the big deal about Robbie Gray is.

 He has hardly put a solid season together yet and would be another Pettifer IMO.

Would be another terrible draft selection.

Agreed Boak is heaps better than Gray. Gray is only being mentioned with Boak b/c he kicked five goals in the Showdown last weekend.

Dead right, totally agree and if it came off it would be great for the club. Would have to be extremely talented footballers though.

Ridiculous list of players for half of them
Giving up on half our kids before they've even had a proper chance to develop

Ridiculous or realistic, given up on our kids, please what has this list shown, please tell me??? If we are serious about being serious during trade week it's time to be aggressive like the other clubs are. We are weak during trade period and it has to stop. You have a go at my list Infamy what ever you do don't go onto the other trade thread because the likes of Foley, Tambling and the rest are being thrown up.

Post has gone backwards, Rance (who I always liked) just doesn't seem to fit, Morton doesn't want the hard ball or to work hard for that matter, do I need to go on, the rest have pretty well had long enough to show something, Farmer maybe not but who the hell else Infamy. C'mon what have they done???
