Trade/FA rumours

[Stalin]

How do you know

17 clubs

Melskahm pick 20 odd

Ditto Stanley

It's possible a club over pays for one of the bellis / Houli / Lloyd  types

I'd trade Edwards because he's a realistic chance to get what he's worth. Lloyd on the other hand wouldn't get us much and don't think we'd get what he's worth but if he was needed as a sweetner then bye bye

whats edwards worth?

I doubt he has a huge amount of worth outside our club. Could be packaged up with picks?

correct, hence my earlier comment about him not being our best trade bait. No club would give up a first rounder for him and I certainly wouldnt take a second rounder for him, he gives us a lot more than that. Keep

Agree.

Edwards would get decent offers....

Jake Niall just said on AFL Tonight that Marchbank from GWS has put contract talks off until the end of the season - specifically mentioned Essendon, Carlton, Collingwood & St. Kilda as being interested but then said "and there will probably be a few other Victorian clubs..."

There's only a few left...

2nd rounder you'd think, no? Could (unlikely) steal us a late 1st rounder if another club rates him the way Richmond seems to. Whereas Lloyd would be lucky to get you a 5th rounder

agree with that - and you'd be happy to take a second rounder for him?

[Yeahright]

Probably, yeah. If it was pick around 20 I'd probably do it, we need another early 2nd rounder. If it was a later pick like 35 no I wouldn't.

[big tone]

IMO Edwards is easily worth a 1st round pick. Something between 10 to 15.
If you consider what other average players have gone for.
We were potentially getting pick 20 off Brisbane for a guy not even in our best 22 IMO..
Edwards has been a star over the last couple of years and in a decent side would be even better.
1st round picks sometimes get you BEllis types 
Anyone with a brain in their head would take Edwards over BEllis.

I agree with this. We don't have a lot of X factor in the team. If we trade Edwards, what is the chance we'd get an upgrade on him if it were a 2nd rounder? Probably slim. So why would we take a slim chance to improve when there are better ways to build the side. I would rather trade Vickery for a second rounder. He is lazy and won't improve under Hardwick who seems happy for him to be lazy. The chances of an upgrade are much better than trying to upgrade on Edwards.

What were you saying about taking risks?

[one-eyed]

From Barrett's 'Sliding Doors' column today:


IF ... Vickery and Griffiths remain out of contract for much longer ...    

THEN ... it'll soon be obvious to all that the Tigers are attempting to lure a big-name key forward. Hello Josh Jenkins?
