Patrick Dangerfield may be a tiger in 2016. As I wrote in the other thread, we are way too quiet on the Dangerfield front. He wants a flag, Geelong are on the slide and we have the money and we are huge club again. And he is what we are looking for a big midfielder who can kick goals. Our first pick in 2015 plus our first pick in 2016 and maybe Donuts as well to get it done.

So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Well there ya go. It gets easier then. Everyone is claiming that Geelong is over the line, but we are way too quiet .. I reckon it could be brewing. Our administrators know that the supporters are expecting something big.

I think our utopia from this year's trade table would be landing both Treloar and Yarran.

I think Yarran is a done deal which addresses our forward/mid need. Just need that pure mid now and I think we will be pushing hard for Treloar. I don't think Danger will leave Adelaide personally, which leaves Treloar as our main man to target.

If we can land both Treloar and Yarran then we've done extremely well. Would expect we'd have to give a 3rd round pick for Yarran. Treloar will be more difficult, our 1st round would go and probably move our 2nd round for their 3rd rounder? We won't part with any of our players unless they are guys not getting games so the club would want to do it with draft picks only. Maybe this is where trading future picks comes in handy.

Agree landing Danger would be the ultimate in terms of costing us no draft picks, but just don't think he will be leaving Adelaide.

Not quite right, he is a restricted free agent.

Which means Adelaide has the right to match, if they do, the only way he can move clubs is via trade

Apparently Carlton has said that they will ask for more than one first round pick for Lachie Henderson. Don't think he's worth that much

They can ask, they won't get it. Won't finish in top 20 of club b&f , either will yarran, that's a good pointer towards currency

Kreuzer
Astbury>Aish

if you dont pay overs when there are 17 other teams, you generally dont get the player in question

i would pay overs for danger, trelor, kreuzer etc.  :-\

you can trade future draft picks now too.... load up pay overs and the team will be strong enough to trade out fringe players the following years - and regain picks

Look to us on trading future picks for a couple of rippers this end of the year.

I'd pay overs for Dangefield, without hesitation

I'd only give $600-650k a season, not the $750 the pies are supposedly offering that is not overs that is way way overs... Not sure he is worth that. Don't think he should be getting more than some of our A graders. Sends a poor message

Kreuzer, with his injury history is far to big a risk to be paying overs. Besides you being in him than one of younger developing talls goes...
