So if Dusty goes we have 1.2mil swilling around in our war chest, who should we go after? 1 or 2 good midfielders, 1 big fish (I don't know who though)??

Honestly who is available?
The problem is we'll be well behind the eight ball to work on anyone this year if he decides to go.
Personally I'd be going to the draft this year and work hard oh Sheil next year.

If we were to have a competitive next year without Dusty and some talented kids coming through from this years draft, an a grader mid in their prime would have to consider a mill a year to come to us I woulda thought.

Or Prestia might step up ;)

Is Josh Kelly still available?
He may consider a decent club rather than Naught Melb.

Hit the draft hard? Hmmm three picks in the late teens in a peeweak draft ...one of which we'll no doubt be forced to use on Corey Ellis Mk.II aka Patrick Naish....yeah nah......trade them for higher picks perhaps? Next year's the year to be doing all that...

 or

Lynch or Brown next year...or....

..late play for Kelly...or

....Lever, two good mids...


...also rumours Footscray are looking to trade Stringer and that Libba wants out.... :shh

No use getting Tom Lynch if we have a crap midfield kicking it to him.

He's never been that good at having a long odds bet on something...
“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.

This might be plausible except that we have Neil Balme on board.

Bruce tonight said it's been reported this week that Schoenmakers may be moving to the Bulldogs.

We were into him 2 or so seasons ago. I know that for a fact.
