1. we've been crying out for KPP backmen....
hello? Goose anyone?!
Our defence has been a top defence coming into 07, based around max, goose, v2, aussie jones, and penny, with fisher standing up in 06, along with gram and goddard.
in fact many consider fisher our premier defender...
why don't we trade goose for a KPP backman?!
as for the others listed, you get what you trade...a GOP for GOP, or GOP for a round 2 or 3 draft pick.
also there is something called salary cap and something called team lists...no one is going to take 3 or 4 players for a round 1 or 2 draft pick, because it fills their frikken lists up.
also what would we get? an untried round 2 or 3 player who will take 2 or 3 years to develop maybe 4 years to develop, and
every month of that development period pharktards will be demanding we trade them for a round 3 draft pick
because of salary cap you will have 3 to 5 marquee players, 6 to 10 would be a grade players, 10 to 20 would be a Mix of top GOPs and b grade players and the rest GOPS, back ups, developmental and project players.
you are not going to field a team of 22 all australians with 10 or so AA's in the back ground.
all season we were missing max, maguire, and various other times, l. fisher, goddard etc, and idiots were saying where are the guys as good to step and fill the roll?
sorry but maguire is a damn good CHB probably when fit top 3 CHBs in the league, max has been our best defender for a decade and fisher is an outstanding KPP posibly in contention of AA nomination...
guys like htat kicking around in the reserves DONT exist...in any club.
when WCE were missing cousins, judd, kerr and embley, their b team midfield wasn't as good....they were adequate, but not as good...never will be.
gwilt stood up and did ok, gram held his own playing KPP and fisher certainly stood up as captain of the defence.
not bad missing 3 of your best defenders...
and now...some are talking about trading our CHB...
