Mini is contracted until the end of next year

That's alright, hopefully they give him a chance to play forward this year.

Both players at the cross roads. Both have potential. Both have diffulculty fitting under the salary cap with Mattners inclusion.

well isn't that a surprise

going once

in all seriousness, all this trade speculation is garbage and i hate it.

I feel for Josh Kennedy who wanted to stay at Carlton but got shafted. I just hate trade week in general.

By one-on-one defensive skills, I refer to his spoiling and ability to go with a player on a lead, which is non-existent. Ok then, so you aren't talking about his ability to mark in a contest, in the back 50... got ya. However i think you are saying that he can't really spoil a player that is runni...

You are selling him a bit short OWTS. Fisher is a ball winner and always has been, once he has another full preseason i have no doubt that he will be able to match it with most. His one on one defensive skills are pretty decent so i don't know where you are gettin that from?

I wonder if we are considering elevating any of our scholarship bpys this year? Does anyone know how they are progressing? I think the boy with the new zealand parents is the only scholar of age to be drafted. Any news? I think he was used sparingly off the bench for NSW/ACT Rams. Does not look lik...

David Neitz is also up for trade

roll up, roll up, they are all up for trade!!!

Wanting draft picks, draft picks, draft picks!!!

Watts and brooks have virtually no trade value. The best that could be gotten for them would be a fourth rounder from the doggies who are kpp destitute.

I like the idea of the players getting counselling about drugs if they have a problem. We are obsessed with tall poppy syndrome. If the governement try and do this then i would fully back the players decision to pull out of the arrangement.

With all this flowering going on perhaps we should create a new board devoted to gardening.

The recruiters weigh up whether the players they want will be around at that pick. If they believe that they will be taken earlier, or later than the pick they are trading, and the player they are going for is deemed better than what they could get otherwise, then they should make that trade. It's a...

I remember my uncle telling me how him and my gramps used to smuggle bags of goon into Waverly. They disguised them by wrapping them up in alfoil as if they were sandwiches.

Would have thought that Melbourne would want more than a second rounder. Joey is pretty important to the team i would have thought we'd be reluctant to trade him?

I think a good poll would be one relating to membership

i.e
What will you be doing in 2008?

renew membership
become a first time member
decide not to renew
haven't been a member and don't really plan to be
