    So players can't be traded when they are under contract?

    Oh hang on a minute, wasn't Jolly contracted when he was traded? Isn't that a coincidence? Maybe we could make Roughead "fall in our lap"?

    I reckon Hawkins would be the one to go for; big body suited to the full forward position we so desperately require and has plenty of potential. Give him a chance, if anyone can turn him into a star, we can.

    PS. Love your work On-Baller, fantastic stuff.
    Here's one I can agree with you on! Nice work OB!

    We should pursue Ben Reid, get in first & bring him from collingwood! Then since we have another good defender LJ can play forward!

    at the risk of being the unpopular one here, there is a proven AFL full forward going around that would cost us only a draft pick, Brendan Fevola.

    get him on bugger all salary, conditions in his contract that if he mucks up its the door. the few times that he has spoken about goal kicking he has made perfect sense and could be a perfect football tudor for Ben Reid

    Not sure why that would make you unpopular its just an opinion,having known Fev since i was knee high to a grass hopper living a few doors away i'd love to see him play for us.

    Having said that ive seen all his games for Casey this year and he is nowhere near fit and hasnt had the attitude change that needed to happen for clubs to even consider him.

    That along with what happened at the lions and the fact they had to pay him out and show him the door would scare off even the most desperate of recruiters.

    Only team i could see even considering it is MAYBE Port Adelaide and even then i doubt it.

    No, not for me. He's damaged goods i'm afraid.

    Apply the same theory we did with the Big Mummy and throw a crapload of doallars at Charlie Dixon. He's 6 foot 7, moves like a cat, already knows how to take a contested clunk and will be one of the stars of the comp in 2 years. In 5 years he will be downright terrifying.
    My opinion is objective truth in its purest form

    If GC keep all their kids they are going to be downright terrifying themselves.

    And if they were going to get rid of some, he would be at the bottom of the list. More likely to get Jack Riewolt IMO.

    Really? they have several other young KP players oozing talent. Maybe it's unlikely but we have some of those inside midfielders they are probably craving.

    WIth Rischetelli, Ablett (not just inside but definitely brilliant at it), Swallow, Harris and the like, they are pretty well set for inside mids. In fact, they seem pretty much set for in most areas except experience and the endurance that comes with a few pre-seasons into their younger stars.

    Absolutely no chance at all of getting Reiwoldt,none.

    However GC have a wealth of good young forwards and it has been mentioned many a time in the media that they will have to offload one or 2 at seasons end so the Dixon call is spot on.
