    Hey guys, we are already three down and after Tom Mitchell we'll have National Draft picks around 42, 59, 76 so I can't see us offloading too many unless we have our eyes on some cheap players or intend to promote a couple.

    Sumner's situation is interesting and TDL has too much natural ability to be jetisoned just yet.

    Not a good time to be making a lot of changes but we are in a better position than quite a few other clubs as we appear to have some good talent coming through and Mitchell for Pick 20 is a steal.

    There are two key reasons why a large number of delistings is not a viable option this year. First there are already 3 (C. Bolton, Bradshaw, Kennelly) retirees and a likely 4th (Sumner). Second, the draft picks are low due mainly to GWS. The question remains: what to do with middle aged players like Moore, Bevan, and Seaby, who can't make the current 22. Particularly in regard to the former two, are they good enough to be trade baits?

    To the folks making out a case for Jesse - wake up - he is not good enough.

    Good call. I fear his body is starting to resemble Charlie sheen after a week in Colombia with his myriad girlfriends

    Can't see a lot of movement this off season with all the GWS concessions and our commitment to Mitchell ... I also think we have so much talent on our list and we're just starting to get everything together. Give Spangher, White and Reid a pre season to figure each other out and take the best youngsters in the draft and I think we're set for a great 2012!

    We've traded in or picked a player from another club since Roos' reign except for one year.

    2002 - Craig Bolton
    2003 - redrafted Amon Buchanan, does that count?
    2004 - Darren Jolly, David Spriggs
    2005 - Paul Chambers, Ted Richards
    2006 - Peter Everitt
    2007 - Marty Mattner, Henry Playfair
    2008 - Rhyce Shaw
    2009 - Daniel Bradshaw, Josh Kennedy, Ben McGlynn, Shane Mumford, Mark Seaby
    2010 - Andrejs Everitt, Matt Spangher
    2011 - ???

    Hopefully they will ditch the absurd sub rule and Pyke /Seaby will have a role next year.
