Trade target discussion (merged thread)

[Nico]

Was actually thinking the exact same thing today! Mainly because his foot skills are so good and that's one area we lack in.
Trade ban aside though, I don't think we'd be able to compete with other offers, he's the type of player that someone will pay massive overs for.

Please! Why would you bother with this bloke who has disappointed his whole career. The only reason he gets a game is that they have no one else. They deserve him.

Who are they talking about, I must be blind but I can't see any player named. Assuming it's Gibbs ?

Because I'd back our development system and coaches to get the most out of his ability...which quite frankly is a lot!

I also wouldn't mind looking at Tayte Pears from Essendon as a KPD, will struggle to get a game alongside Hurley/Hooker etc and would be a more than handy pick-up.

What happened to him? He looked like turning into a great back a couple of years ago.

He has really battled with injury and as such slid down the pecking order, he's strung a few games together in the VFL in the last month so it will be interesting to see whether or not he can crack the 22.

He's from W.A though so I'd be surprised if Fremantle don't make some kind of play.
