Trade week rumours and innuendo

[The Big Richo]

But is a pretentious noodle with an overinflated sense of self-worth.

So you think we can only have one of these types on the list?

I've seen Sam Frost play a fair bit this year. He is a quality young backman and IMO a better player than his brother. Has good pace and strength. Would take him in a heartbeat.
Jaksch also has a fair bit to offer but he has had limited game time and has been inconsistent. Kicked a ripper goal against the Blues. looks like he might be a slow burner and could take a couple more seasons before he is able to hold his own at AFL level.

tiga - Ive never seen Frost play - long term what type of player would u think he'd develop into?

[Judge Roughneck]

De lids is worth 3 picks in the top 10 . Unless GWS were prepared to part with no 3, Boyd and 1 of Tomlinson/Jacsch, anything less would be an insult . In any case won't happen, de lids did his time hard when we were no stuffen good, he could have left for more money at times, he stuck fat coz we were on the march ...he s a proud man de lids

yep

i would want at least the judd deal

de lids best football still ahead of him

Tony I see frost developing into a big strong bodied defender like a Heath Grundy type but with better leg speed. In saying that, he's a pretty good kick and could develop into a handy CHF. Has played 16 games for the Giants this season and IMO showed plenty.

Mick Malthouse is poised for an audacious recruiting bid to extend the AFL playing career of retired Eagles champion Dean Cox.

The former West Coast and current Carlton coach wants Cox to play at least one more season as a back-up ruckman and mentor to big men Robbie Warnock and Cameron Wood.

Giants utility Kristian Jaksch is meeting with Melbourne clubs, believed to include Carlton and Western Bulldogs, while Jonathan O’Rourke is considering his future according to the Herald Sun and rumouredly linked to Collingwood.

Melbourne have made a bid for Giants key defender Sam Frost according to the Herald Sun.

Former Herald Sun chief football writer Mike Sheahan reported last night that Mitch Clark was seen at the Westpac Centre last Friday. Now linked to both Hawthorn and Collingwood.

Collingwood's Tyson Goldsack is set to turn his back on free agency and Port Adelaide to sign a new deal with the Magpies after speaking with coach Nathan Buckley today according the AFL Website.

Essendon's Kyle Hardingham is likely to seek a trade from the Bombers after a lack of senior opportunities this season according to the AFL Website.

Martin Gleeson and Ben Howlett are among the group of players unsigned for next year.

Whoever the Hawks chase we should chase too, they seem to end up with the best value trades. We tend to go after players the top 4 clubs aren't interested in, I guess there is usually a reason for that.

We must talk to Sam Frost. This kid is already showing signs that he will be a gun! Bookmark this post. Surely we have more to offer than a toilet of a club like Melbourne.

Has his kicking improved since he was drafted? Bloke struggled to get the ball to hit his foot about 3 years ago. 

Pretty sure he was a huge Tigers fan and was on BF at one point, saying RFC were really keen on him.

Tigs his kicking has improved immensely. GWS have spent a lot of time developing his kicking and it has shown results. His effective disposal percentage for the season is 75.6 which isn't too shabby. He is a big strong body already and was being selected ahead of Buntine and Plowman for most of the year.

Interesting. Worth an enquiry into price.

Absolutely Tigs! Shouldn't go for too much but we need to remember that just about every player that has left GWS has gone onto good things. Miles, Tyson, Hombsch are good examples of this.
