I'd like to see us land someone with a real winning culture, major leadership qualities and is super hard at the footy.

We need to develop some of our own too in order to entice better quality players to us as well.

Gone for me should be - Matthew Dea, Luke McGuane, Shane Tuck (Ann. Retirement) Robin Nahas, Aaron Edwards, Tom Derrickx, Orren Stephenson (Should sign on for Richmond Reserves team), Ben Darrou (Should sign for Richmond Reserves Team) and Steve Verrier and Sam Lonergan. Thats 10 players straight of the bat.

The players who I would consider trading if the right deal came along would include: Dylan Grimes, Dustin Martin, Shaun Grigg, Shane Edwards, Jake Batchelor, David Astbury, Ben Griffiths, Brad Helbig, Steven Morris, and Ricky Petterd. Thats another 10 right there.

We won't be trading Steven Morris..
Go Tigers!

Personally would like us to entertain something bold like this..


Deledio/Martin -> Pick 1 -> Dangerfield

Cotchin and Dangerfield in the same midfield is as strong as any top 2 in the comp.

GWS need a big name in the midfield, Martin or Lids can be that. Adelaide need picks after the Tippett penlties.. Dangerfield is a Victorian boy and surely would see Adelaides future not being crash hot without first round draft picks for 2 years and no forwardline.

Go Tigers!

didnt we start a thread like this at the end of rnd 23 perhaps we can merge em.

imo we need to use at least our first 3 nd picks and if at all possible trade into one. but i will go with 3 for now,   picks 12, 30, 48. id like to see us target  good mature types in the psd, f/a, and do 1 trade for a high need if possible.
that means replacing 6 on the list proper.
i would also like to see us use 3 possibly 4 rookie picks on both kids and mature types. that means 3 possibly 4 of the rookies need to be cut.

imo there are at least 17 on the list proper who you could make a good case for delisting or getting what we can for them in trade.

for me at this point id be wanting
mcguane, derrickx, nahas, tuck gone, i would have included king but have been told hes just been resigned. so that means two others. to me that is just two tough calls to make.
that still leaves 13 others in the gun, they are  either kids who have not come on as we would like or older blokes who actually give us a bit but are glass half fulls and we really should be looking to upgrade on them weather that is this yr next yr or the one after.

rookies i would not hesitate to cut are
verrier, lonergan, petterd, possiblky stephenson depending on what we do about obtaining a ruckman. would think they will give williams and darrou another yr on the rookie list.

Pope You are dreaming (not that there's anything wrong with that) if you think Dangerfield will leave Adelaide. He will be their captain most probably in 2014

Trade

The Tigers have become the masters of trade moves and free agency in recent year. An inside midfielder, high on leadership and aggression will be high on their agenda next month, to help take the load off Cotchin.

Dangerfield overrated but still awesome.

Correct Andyy, we need a player up forward like a Roughhead, Waite, Tippert. Someone who gets on with the job instead of thinking they are great because they won 2 Coleman medals.
Good sides are built around forwards & sooky Rewoldt spends more time waving at umpires or walking with his head down while his opponent runs away with the ball. Get a real forward who leads & has great confidence. l wrote about this some years back & we still suffer the same problem.  l would try for John Butcher from Port Adelaide. he should have dropped some value by now  ;D A trade of Shane Edwards & a 3rd round pick would be justice.

just to add some sweetner to it l would give them Griffiths also. l think he only got 1 game this year & they seen that his not a AFL player & left him in the VFL to be bandaged by the medic's cause he was using up too many bandages & trainers time in the Tigers clubroom  ;D
