Not buying into we have lost depth that's hardly depth.Miles 1 game Ellis 5 games tryed proven nothing ,Stengle 0 games Conca glad his gone. Lloyd 3 games the only one who could step up.Some a deadwood.Rather draft a few kids and get a few state league players new faces and let a few guys in vfl step up.

Yep, all traded because of where we’ve finished on ladder in the past 2 seasons....

Jesse Hogan’s camp asked Fremantle for an $8 million deal over eight years before the Dockers emphatically rejected Melbourne’s trade offer.

Fremantle has put Pick 11 on the table for GWS big man Rory Lobb, per a report, but is keen on getting more than just the Western Australian in the deal. Instead Fremantle would want a reasonably good draft pick coming along with Lobb. The Giants hold picks 14, 25, 43, 47 and 52 in the first few rounds of the draft, and Pick 25 is viewed as the most likely candidate.

Gold Coast and North Melbourne are set to complete the trade for outside midfielder Aaron Hall as early as Tuesday morning. And the Suns could settle for a very late pick. Foxfooty.com.au understands the Suns will most likely receive Pick 68 in return for Hall, who played just six senior games this year due to injury and form.

Blessed with no injuries this year. A big concern IMO going into 19 with no new midfield additions

IMO theyre likely thinking Higgins will play a lot more midfield, along with Graham - theres quite a bit of scope for improvement from within with these guys. Think we'll find Dusty will spend more time in midfield too and now that Lynch is here caddy isnt going to be a 90-10 key fwd/mid, will spend more time in the midfield rotations. You can also guarantee we'll be looking to draft some inside mids

If they are that concerned for midfield depth we could look to grab Barlow as a mature age rookie

Would slot in nicely if we need someone.

Two Suns in the sunset:

Aaron Hall off to North Melbourne for pick 68.

Jack Scrimshaw plus Gold Coast's future round 4 pick off to Hawthorn for their future round 3 pick.

Reports of Scrimshaw being on $400K, this is absolute madness and really does make it tough for interstate clubs.

I reckon Hall for pick 68 is a steal, especially when we traded Lloyd for a similar pick.

What's the knock? Was great until 2018?
