With the Morris and Maric trades all done, what else would you like to see Richmond do at the trade table before the Monday 1.30pm deadline?

get a big name
Looks at the Hawks,
over the years they have secured Dew, Guerra, Hale , Gibson, Burgoynne and now Gunston.

I'd like to see us get a 2nd round pick back or another 3rd round. Which would probably mean we trade out one of the players that have been listed around the place us up for trade such as Mcguane Connors or even Morton but who know's not many people tipped last year Collins would be traded out.

If we can get a trade for Mcguane and Graham that'll top off a big week. Would prefer to keep Morton and Connors. We should delist Farmer and maybe Nason, with Taylor already gone too. Hopefully Moore, Miller and Tuck retire  8)

Find a club(s) stupid enough to take McGuane, Connors and Morton off our hands.

Dew is a big name? Maybe a fat name. Hale not a big name.
I agree that the Hawks have nailed the recruiting and trading mix.
Hats off to the Hawks, I says through gritted teeth.
It's that simple Spud
"I discussed (it) with my three daughters, my wife and my 82-year-old mum, because it has really affected me … If those comments … were made about one of my daughters, it would make the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. I would not have liked it at all.”

Dew - you are kidding me but anyway

And what do we give up in return jack?

Seriously outside of pick 14 and 4 players (Cotch, Dusty, Lids & Jack) what can we give up that satisfy a trade for a big name?

You say we have a list of "duds" but then somehow think those "duds" will get us a big name player - you are dreaming

If we had given up what the dawks had ie our first rounder ( no way would they have accepted a second rounder) and downgraded our next two picks, would people have been happy with that?

Should our first pick be on the table for anyone else?

“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

secure mcCaffer on the cheap in a trade

hopefully find a new home for the likes of McGuane, Graham, Jackson and Connors(dreamin i know)

get Toovey for free in the PSD

Maric, Morris, Toovey, McCaffer thats 4 new best 22 players for 2012 who are an upgrade on what we have and for potentially very little.

i cannot see the club targeting toovey. If he had been on the radio the way he/his manager has played this through the media would turn the tigers off him i reckon.

Facts are that Stuart Dew turned the game in there Grand Final win..
As for trading our players, would look at any player that has a defining year.
I doubt whether Nahas will perform as good again

Josh Caddy. Pick 15 + Compo pick.  Will complete our midfield and give us the extra grunt that we need.

Do it CC and FJ.
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.

Need more draft picks. Trading for players should only be a very small piece of the puzzle - most of the work is drafting the right players and keeping a good number of young kids coming through each year - only way we'll really get there in the end. We need some more picks, even if it is a weak draft.
