Giles was in the SANFL team of the year last year and I reckon he's actually a shot at retaining the captaincy.
It's possibly also worth considering whether Freo's Griffin will be on the market too.

If Seaby asks to be traded the best option would be GWS ( for us) a first round draft pick would be a winner, but if he wants to stay a good stock of ruckmen is not a bad thing to have

should package him (maybe with Bevan and another) to get hands on one of the 17 yr olds they have to trade.
He's too good to be playing reserves every week, but I would be sad to see him go. People seem to forget that he was actually ahead of Mumford at the start of 2010 and was playing exceptionally well before he broke his ankle against Brisbane in about round 5. He has been very good for us in the games he has played in 2011 aswell, and if it wasn't for the new sub rule he would still be in the side.
Clearly a better overall player than Pyke, and I would be worried if we lost Seaby and Pyke became our 2nd ruckman.
Discussion on SEN this morning suggested the Bullies may be looking for a ruckman as Hudson will retire, Minson is a dud and young Roughhead isn't ready yet. Seaby would be a good fit there and we have a recent history of trading with the bullies.
It's a tough one because the AFL are so unpredictable with how they go about their rules and changes. Next year they may well decide to go with 4 on the bench and a sub in which case a true second ruck may well again become fashionable.
Of course if those changes are made, they will be well after the trade period which happens within a fortnight of the GF hooter sounding for the last time of the year.
Driver of the Dan Hannebery bandwagon....all aboard. 4th April 09
Freo might be looking for a ruckman if Sandi can't get rid of his toe jam, few youngsters there to pick from

For a surprise, have a look at the last couple of paras of this piece.
Implying that he's got an ongoing spot on the Swans' list? Borderline bizarre. I say that as one who would have dearly loved to see Dan Currie make it. But unless the Swans have got some inside mail on the AFL reverting to a pre-2011 interchange rule in 2012, us keeping him would be only a slightly smaller surprise than us re-drafting Heath James.Ruckman Daniel Currie?s injured foot hasn?t progressed over the last week and he is unlikely to feature again in 2011.
?We?re letting him now just work on his injuries and get ready for the off-season,? Cameron said.
The other alternative is that it's a little in-joke, and he actually means 'the long, long off-season, AKA the rest of your life'.
or maybe the fact that the physio would have little idea about the contract status of players.
does anyone remember what pick etc that we gave West Coast for Seabs to join us ?
