Whats happening is that our supporters want the quick fix. Bring in players from other clubs. The draft is the way to go. Bring in 6 kids and regenerate with youth. A good draft had us in contention for more flags in 3 or 4 years.

Draft all the way. Even Prestia lynch and caddy moving to us through trade is technically karma for the AFL robbing us through a compromised draft.

If we're smart and make some hard calls we can both trade & hit the draft hard - we have the currency so it really doesn't need to be an either/or proposition... :shh

Everything like what?

Give a trade scenario and I’ll see if it’s a valid option.

I can be. I’m very good at determining what is a good trade or not.

There isn’t a list manager in the AFL that would do that trade. Fail.

I wouldn’t be against trading some tiddlywinks for ex GWS midfielder Matthew Kennedy.

For some reason he’s out of favour at the blues and can’t buy a game even though from what I’ve seen he’s significantly a better player than Dow, Setterfield and Plowman all put together  :lol
But we all know Carlton are stupid. He’s a body mid that has poise, smarts and doesn’t panic under pressure and he also kicks goals.

Age: 24
Height: 190cm
Weight: 88 kgs
Draft Pick: 13 (2015)
2016–2017 Greater Western Sydney 19 games 9 goals
2018– Carlton 29 games and 23 goals
Total 48 games 30 goals.

I think at our club he would be a better player. Apparently we matched bids when he was drafted.

I’m still a fan of this kid. I reckon we should be looking to get him to punt rd. Problem now is that he’s getting games and dominating. Will be more expensive than first thought.

I like him, he has some poise and he’s not afraid to kick it and gain metres and has footy smarts.

I think he would be a nice addition

I don’t like the players that are scared panic merchants. ie Ellis
