Have we got a contigency for a ruckman other than Kruezer?

Lycett, Leuenberger, Martin, Minson, Hannath or trade Newy for NicNat perhaps. :shh

I reckon we need another ruckman urgently.

Redden is contracted for 2016 but he will be a free agent at the end of next year. So if the Lions don't trade him now then they'll only get a compo pick at best in 12 months time.

We do need another ruckman, ideally who s ready to go in 12 months coz he won't play in front of Ivy and TV , I like lycett , takes a great grab

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.

I think we'd need to throw in a second rounder as well to get it done. Redden would be a very good addition to a solid midfield.

WEST Coast is believed to be the preferred destination for 24-year-old Brisbane Lions midfielder Jack Redden after he told the club on Tuesday he wanted to seek a trade despite a year remaining on his contract.

The consistent midfielder has also attracted preliminary interest from several Victorian clubs, and Adelaide is understood to be also monitoring the South Australian.

AT is worth 2 first round picks in exchange for their second, bearing in mind this year is like an early second pick with compo's etc

Said it before Hackson needs to start doing his job with the second rounders or we will get found it in the coming years.

All we will end up with now is the hack from Carlton. Yarran. I hope to hell the club don't gloat to us about picking him up. War chest ready for action hey.... Bloody crap RFC.

I have to agree with this.

Though there looks to be be upside from last season's draftees.
