Pick 9 and Nahas. You could throw in Post too!

As one famous supporter keeps on saying....

Get it done Tiges!!!!

we don't have a hell of a lot to offer.  for a contracted player they don't want to lose would take something like martin to get any interest

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."

Word on BF is Tyson's dad is a leading coterie member at Richmond. Dom himself grew up as a massive Tigers supporter.

His father ceratinly isn't listed in the 2012 Coterie Members on the C'ub's web-site  ;D

And as long as it isn't Hoskin-Elliott - in the few GWS games I watched he was a disappointment

Did you miss the 5 goals he kicked as a midfielder? I wish our first year kids did that.

Yes I did

But sadly I didn't miss him pulling out of contest to avoid physical contact and I think people know my views on players that "squib" the contest. Think we have enough of those  :thumbsup

Pick 9 and Nahas and Graham for Tyson and Pick 21 / 24 and Pick 44?  All of them have 1 year left on contracts.  :lol

Need to keep pick 9, we don't need to trade away picks like this, regardless.

Would you swap pick 9 for pick 3?

Regardless of players involved.... ::).......no I wouldn't take Judd or Ablett for pick 9...

This has been our past problem, too many people thought we needed top up players in 95.......we need to pick a young gun with pick 9 not trade it away, unless it's for pick 1. :whistle

How is Tyson a top up player? He's a kid in his second year of senior football, would easily go in the top 10 if he was in this years draft. The kid is a young gun, who actually has an extra year of development under his belt ;)

Ok, I DID NOT NAME HIM AS A TOP UP PLAYER.......IS THAT CLEAR?????? I was generalising.

I said I wouldn't trade away pick 9 thats it, clear cut, nothing to read into. Enough said, IMO we keep pick 9...pretty easy to understand..

Mate, it's actually not easy to understand. In fact it's plain irrational.
If Tyson is seen by the club as better than their best couple of picks in the current draft and we can do the deal with pick 9, we do it. If they don't, we leave it.
If he is our best teenage option, it makes sense because :-
- He is still a teenager so it makes no difference from an age perspective
- he removes us from the lottery of a draft
- we get a kid with an extra Pre season under his belt.
I would understand us not trading pick 9 for Ablett because we are still trying to build our list with quality kids - which might by WATs point.
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.”

Maybe I'm stupid but I'd trade pick 9 for Gazza Jnr.
Would only get 4 years from him but boy would it make ours a powerful midfield.
Might pinch a flag or 2 with that call over the next few seasons.
Tyson? Much less proven prospect.

The voice of reason.  Not trading Pick 9 for Ablett.  Thats some mighty good weed people are smoking here if that is understandable.  Cough Cough..... Can't read through all the smoke....

Ablett for Pick 9.  Get it done Tiges!

WP.  Junior player avoiding crippling contact from a bigger body.  Is that squibbing or not being a total idiot.  Fine line....  I like your sentiment but give him a couple of preseasons before you draw a line through him.  Our squibs don't kick 5 goals.  Still an upgrade.

so is ablett for pick 9 a true rumour? Is it on big footy?

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."

Just to refresh WAT is the same guy who is also happy to see McGuane get a new contract :lol :lol
