Pears, played one game with a busted arm, and played another with internal bleeding and a stuff panceras.

If we do employ Wallis as Assistant Coach of Harden the f*** Up, I don't think he would need to spend any time with Pears.

Why would GC trade for Brennan? Get him in the PSD for nothing.

Maybe worried that Carl will get a trade done with the Lions first....

Tarrant wants to return to the Magpies...

'There have also been reports Tarrant could form part of a three-way deal, which would see the defender head to Carlton; Blues ruckman Sam Jacobs go to Adelaide and Crows ruckman Jon Griffin and a draft pick to Fremantle.

If he walks, he runs the risk of being picked up by a club other than one he might want to go to.

But who in there right minds would want them? Malthouse will still expect nothing less than a 1st round draft pick and superstar for them though... :roll:

David Armitage being linked to us now.

Also Jones had knock backed a Melbourne contract offer and they've knocked back an early trade offer from us.

We're interested in Vezpremi.

All ripped straight from twitter by a bloke which our official club twitter follows. So not a brilliant source but does have some merit.

We should have a massive crack at Drummond. Exactly what we need. A rebounding defender that can actually kick the ball. Players up the ground would have a permanent hard on receiving the ball from him and Fletch.

There were big wraps on Armitage when he first joined the Saints, wonder what has happened now.

If Saints are looking for a key forward because Kosi is so f****** pathetic, maybe we can trade them Neagle. Together they may make one barely passable half-arsed footballer.

This year's trade possibilities look no better than the sort of crap you would find at a garage sale in Broadmeadows.

I would think the only value would be in a direct trade of Houli (who appears to want to go) with Tambling (who despite the moans and groans, has shown he can be a damned good player).

I dont think we would get better than a third round draft for Houli who can always fo into the PSD and walk straight into Richmond for nothing. Tambling in this case would be a much better outcome than nothing at all.
