Sounds like we’re going hard for Kelly. I know I am.

As per afl.com....Stewart Crameri will be traded or delisted from the doggies.

Probably no value for EFC even at a bargain price.

Really liked Cramma. But his body is shot.

As above re Crammers.
Also, he is not our future and players like Walla, Fantasia, and even McKenna would be way ahead for game time...

We desperately need inside mid-fielders.

McGrath will move into that role but we need a couple more good ones.
My material isn't very good..Oh...and then there's the bladder problem.

So we should go after Tom Rockliff, gets so much of the ball. An instant Jobe replacement. vingertje

If Kelly stays they will need cap space - I think Smith could be a handy on-baller/forward in the rotations with Tippa/Fanta etc..

Whoever we want, we darn well better go boots and all to get them.
I've been hearing so much about how ready and cashed up we are to be aggressive this trade period, that if we don't get some real cream I'm gonna be as mad as all heck.
Time for action EFC, not just words.

Not 100% sold on Stringer but am willing to listen to any arguments supporting his case

However, Kelly plus Stringer would be a pretty clear statement of intent.

I doubt we will have many draft picks for the next 2 seasons if we pull that off but that's fine, plenty of young kids with potential already in the squad

I was going to start another thread Re:Who DON`T we want :lol:

And Stringer was going to head the list.

I`d be interested to hear what others think of him but I reckon he is WAY TOO inconsistant.

But back to the people we do/should want.

I think we should seriously go after Schache... rumour has it he wants back to Melbourne, he would be a great foil for Joe, and Hooker can go back (where I believe he is happiest and plays his best footy).

I'd start getting used to the idea of him being in a Dons jumper.

Can we turn him back into a midfielder? Or at least not useless?

I`d say NO to both of them.

Was terrible this year and still managed to generate 3 shots on goal a game. He wasn't entirely useless.
