That's a really good question. I believe they are wondering that themselves  :shh

Sack the bum!
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

He is 25 in December so 26 next by the end of December 2016. We could 5 to 7 years out of him.

I would be keen if we miss out on Treloar.

Reddens first couple of seasons were great but he's realy fell off the radar the last couple.
Not sure what his issues are but I'd be keen if he didn't cost an arm and a leg.

Perhaps his issues are playing for a basket case like the lions?

I think you could make the same case for Rich and the rest of them. Granted that Rich has been injured but there was a time when the Lion's young midfield was highly rated but the whole lot have considerably fell away.

Direct swap for Astbury would be fair IMHO. We get another inside mid and they get a key defender.

I still think Harper would be a bargain basement get from North.
Only 23, has had a tough run with injury but has strung a dozen good games together in the VFL.
Is out of contract and potentially could be got for next to nothing.
Wack him on the opposite wing to Macintosh and KABOOM!!

I reckon they'd have their eye on Harper to replace knights on the list. Low cost option, ready to go

Redden has good numbers , lots of contested and clearances. I'd swap for astbury

Redden is in the right age bracket, delivers another big bodied inside mid into our mix. I think he would be a terrific get for us. An Astbury for Redden swap would be a good result for everyone.

Totally agree
