Tony Sheahan said on twitter we were after Karl Amon from Port but has since deleted the tweet....

...and no I don't know who the stuff Karl Amon is either....apparently his main claim to fame so far is being the bloke NicNat tried to bury in a tackle that got him suspended... :shh

I thought Hawthorn were interested in him earlier in the trade period.
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.

Someone asked him about Hawthorn being into Amon and he said "don't know about that but I hear Tigers are ..."

....as I said he's since deleted the post so probably realised he had wrong info.... :shh

Steven May’s declaration that he'll go to any Victorian club that can satisfy the Suns in a trade seems to have opened up a lot more doors, but how likely is it that any other clubs will join Melbourne in the race for the Gold Coast captain?

Richmond’s pick 17 wouldn’t be enough, and anyway, there can’t be any salary cap space left at Punt Road after securing Tom Lynch and re-signing the club’s ‘big four’ in the past two years, so the Tigers are no chance.

https://www.sportingnews.com/au/afl/news/afl-trade-news-which-victorian-clubs-are-in-the-running-for-gold-coasts-steven-may-suns/1wst4j460ywi6zzgfyrkw4ahn

I wouldn't say we were no chance. It could be worked out. I can see a possible way it could be done. Now i don't have any inside running here on this and absolutely nothing may come of it. but wouldn't it be just a touch of magic if we landed May and Lynch.

A defender is literally the last thing we currently need especially on the type of salary that may would command.

With North active this year I would’ve like us to make a play for Jacobs. Injury prone but very good player, Maybe give them B.Ellis to make it happen.
The club that keeps giving.

Trade BEllis for the guy who was the only player in the world capable of keeping him quiet when he used to play on the wing? Like stuffing whoa, Tigra, you just blew my mind and almost got me on board...:shh

As if anyone would ever bother to tag BEllis...the kind of non-damaging dud opposition sides want to have the ball.... :shh

Even if it was true, not sure why we'd want an outside runner when we need another inside mid?

Wow.

Imagine if we traded our first two picks and Jack Graham for Wingard. This place would be in meltdown.  :snidegrin
