Brisbane Lions pursuing Richmond's David Astbury (Age)

[Hellenic Tiger]

Astbury for McGuane.

Chuck in Andrew Raines and we've got a done deal.

[Diocletian]

Raines is at Gold Coast now...will be the steak knives in the Bennell trade....

Raines retired a week or two back. You might have missed it.

[Smokey]

So did McGuane.  Why do you want to spoil our 5 minutes of fun?

[Hellenic Tiger]

McGuane's retired and Raines is at Gold Coast?

Have I missed something?

Is Dion Scott still available?

Swap for Redden and our first round pick!!!!!

Redden has already nominated  he wants to go to wce. If he ends up leaving that is where he will end up.  Why do people ignore player wants? after all in most cases what the players want they get.
Dave Astbury, what is a realistic trade??  Well Stef Martin has said he wants to come home to Melbourne for family reasons. Martins age at 29  is a bit of a concern, so to off set that swap our third or fourth round pick for their second pick  to round out the trade.  We could then use the extra 2nd round pick as part of a trade  to get a player like Carlisle.

Take Batchelor instead!

Keep Astbury!

Redden is NOT out of contract. The club does not have to trade him. He may prefer WCE, but if Brisbane want Astbury and we can organize a swap, all we have to do is convince him to come to us and it will happen. Nominating a club carries much more weight when you are out of contract.

Is their any spec that Aish could be involved in this ?

[torch]

Trade Batchelor to them!

[eliminator]

Agree

[Penelope]

this initiative to be able to trade players to clubs regardless of whether they want them is a good one by the AFL
