Wouldnt the sensible trade be kerr for Didak. Kerr gets to go to one of the big four and west coast get a quality forward. Simple trade unfortunately for the swans
Why on earth would we recruit White?
The smart word on the street is Warnock.
The other is Kerr.
Can't say anymore ?
Supporting the club formerly known as South Melbourne ?
Warnock has requested a trade home to Victoria so that would not seem to be an option.
Our game style relies heavily on creating and winning stoppages and I don't see much changing next year.
An injury to Jolly would see our season over immediately.
I have watched no Dees games at all this season (except agst us) so couldn't comment on where White is from a fitness/body perspective, but I can see why they would consider drafting him. As insurance for Jolly it makes sense.
I, personally, would like to see Currie getting some senior game time in 2009.
I think the problem probably is that Kerr doesn't want to go to the Pies. He'd rather go to another Vic club instead.
Personally I'd love to see the Swans make a play for Kerr over Didak or White, but I guess it depends how many years they could squeeze out of White if he got him and whether Jolly wants to co-ruck with him again.
No connection betwqeen White and the others. White, i f they want him is only the $$s and terms, and thru PSD.
Personally, there are three possible major targets for the Swans midfield wise:
Kerr, Didak, though more of a forward, and Wells. Wells would come at the lowest cost. Would be content with any of the tghree..but clearl Kerr is the pick and the highest value, thereofre, we have to trade someone worth a number one pick, and we don;t have too many of that lot I am afraid..
Tall man brigade, I would be after Kosi if we can get him..would add a lot to us, big strong, and mobile and with a bit of aggro also..
Why on earth would st kilda give up kosi??

Official AFL Website of the Sydney Swans > News Article > Roos tight-lipped on Kerr and Didak
At least seems to agree ....
However, the Sydney Swans coach ruled out picking up ex-Melbourne player Jeff White.
?I don?t think so,? he said. ?There was a little bit written on the weekend. Jeff still has something to offer AFL footy. I think he is a good player and he is only 31. I think from our point of view, probably not. You would have to relocate him from Melbourne and we have Daniel Currie who is a young ruckman coming up and Jake Orreal.?
Kerr for Kirk.
Emotion aside, think of what Kirk could do for West Coast, and what Kerr could do for us. Makes sense for both clubs, and given the length of the reaminder of their respective careers, a fair trade.
