If we go through this trade season without landing someone heads must roll.
We stated 3 years ago we had a war chest to roll with and we have managed to do sweet FA with it.
questions have to be asked why are we being rejected left right and center when Collinwood, Geelong and Hawthorn seem to be able to woe whoever they like.

We're too conservative with our offers, everyone knows you need to pay overs to get talent in, we offer market value, so they opt for better offers. Think greenwood, treloar.

I'm spewin that bunny gale said the club feels the key position stocks are solid what we need are goal kicking midfielders. Carlisle would be a massive coupe, Zac smith is just what we need, instead we are hellbent on yarran

So we're bagging the club now because someone copied from BF a made-up post about Dan Richardson being on 3aw tonight when he wasn't :doh.

Smarter list managers plus a shyteload of high-profile retirements all at once, I'd say...

Yep, the quote was from last year; not from 3aw earlier tonight as some clearly fell for without checking the 3aw website. Clubs aren't going to rely on picks in this weaker draft unless they have picks in the top 5.

Anyway, I'll wait for the trade period to actually start (and finish) before making a judgement on Blair (not a fan by the way) and co's dealings this offseason. Most of the trade speculation at this time of the year either doesn't come to fruition or is just made-up. The media crave it though as it brings out the complete range of emotions of footy fans.

Time to get on the phone Dan & Dimma (not Blair, keep Blair away from said phone) for a chat to the young lad

GWS are likely to accept our trade offer, so time to get on the bike and give this another red hot go

It ain't over til it's over and seeing Trade week hasn't actually started it ain't nowhere near over

Jon Ralph said he still expects Treloar to end up at Collingwood. Both the Pies and GWS have a good relationship via Gubby Allen.

The latest Treloar rumour came from none other than Blues man Andy Maher  :wallywink. He also claimed Richmond is out of the race but Carlton are still in for Treloar.




GWS and Collingwood are reportedly at an impasse over a trade that would see mid-fielder Adam Treloar move to the Magpies, which has opened the door for Carlton to grab the young gun.

The Pies have offered the Giants this year's first round pick and next year's second round pick in return for the 22-year-old, but GWS is holding out for a better deal.

"I'm being told that Carlton has seized on this, and has offered Treloar more money and committed to taking him with their first pick in the pre-season draft," Andy Maher has told SEN.

"My understanding is Treloar said I'm not un-happy with that, if the Collingwood deal can't be done, the money's fine .. I barracked for Carlton as a kid and it would be something as a dream come true."

Maher still thinks the young mid-fielder will end up at the Magpies, but says if the deal can't be done Carlton is now next in line and Richmond is no longer an option.

"Richmond is apparently off the table, but Carlton has made a significant move on Adam Treloar and I'm told his people are more than open for him to play footy with the Blues next year."

http://www.sen.com.au/news/10-15/carlton-an-option-for-treloar#4qKicdXo314T8Vjb.99

-------------------------------------------------------------

St.Kilda are likely to initially offer Essendon, Tom Hickey and Pick 24 for Jake Carlisle. They are more likely to part with Pick 5 though.

- Brett Thomas, SEN.

------------------------------------------------------------

The manager of Carlton big man Levi Casboult has confirmed rival clubs have made enquiries about whether his client would be open to a move. The 25-year-old is contracted for another year and reluctant to leave the Blues but the club is believed to be open for a trade for the right deal.

"If Carlton's prepared to release Levi, that then opens the door for the player to say, well if you're prepared to let me go, clearly I'm not part of the future and maybe I should look at what that opportunity may represent," player agent Anthony McConville told SEN.

- SEN

-------------------------------------------------------------

Brisbane Lions midfielder James Aish is expected to decide his future by Friday, with the Herald Sun reporting that the midfielder has his heart set on joining Collingwood.

The mentioned on SEN leading into 1 oclock that the Richmond deal didnt exist anymore.

Regardless, we'd have to offer big overs at this point, probably 750k. Maybe we have something else in the works? Didnt DR or BH call him personally?
