YZE is up for grabs and...

[ScottH]

Apparently, we (amongst others) are showing an interest.

Be a good inclusion into our already talented Forward line, but Who would he replace?

Do we really need him?

Demons, Yze ready to split

[Jeffers1984]

Soft as butter Yze, but does have class. With the right coaching we could make him tougher but is 28. Still, i'd have a look in but i think he would stay in Victoria.

Wouldn't mind hearing the big OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOZ at the SCG.

[JF_Bay22_SCG]

Does this mean we will soon be getting the famous Yze_Magic (Yze_Class these days) coming acros to RWO as a Swans supporter.

All we'll need is Total Package & Dr Alf and we'll have some of the lowest life forms imaginable.

How about a straight swap for Spriggs?

Inclusion in our forward line?? Soft as butter??
We must watch games a little differently - I've seen alot of his games and Melbourne games.
Yze is more of a midfielder who occassionally plays in the forward line to plug gaps at times. He is a very talented midfielder and as the article indicates the vice captain at Melbourne. He'd be a great aquisition.

You could have published the same statement 3 years ago for woey.

There are a lot of similarities between Yze and Davis (of a couple of years back) in my view. Only think is, Nick had age on his side when we picked him up. I don't think Adam's worth the trouble

He played this role, as well as a small defender in recent years, but this season he was generally used as a small firward at the feet of Neitz and Holland and was on fire in the early weeks before a drop in confidence saw him as the most overrated player in the league. Id only trade fosdike or bevan, nothing more.

[sharpie]

Any other old grandpas we could trade?

First Crawford, then Everitt, now Yze.

Why not just give Kenny Williams a run?

I thought Swans fans had learnt about what happens when you recruit old blokes.

[Young Blood]

Class player, though he struggled this year, was almost dropped. Would add much-needed polish to our midfield. Big question marks over age - could probably only expect 2-3 good years from him. But that probably fits in with our window of opportunity.

We're going to lose a few from the list this year (Nicks, Ball, Maxfield, maybe Willo plus surely one or two of Fixter/James/Sundqvist/Powell) so will be looking to pick up a player or two in trade period. If Yze is available, he could well be the best available.

[NMWBloods]

Let's not exaggerate - Yze will be 28 next season. The same age as Paul Williams was when we recruited him.

[Captain]

Wouldn't be a bad pick up if we didn't have to give too much away. Straight swap for Saddington?

[ugg]

Right, and we'll also give Doyle for Everitt and why not chuck in Heath James for Crawford at the same time. And they all lived happily ever after...

[DST]

Enough of this soft as butter cr*p.

I would have thought the value of talented players who can win a game off their own boot are priceless and has been shown over the last couple of weeks.

Our team has the toughness already, anything that adds a bit of polish would be most welcome IMHO.

if we added a second-round pick they might go for it as they need the height down there.

I think that's a bit harsh. He's racked up a huge number of consecutive games & you don't do that by being soft.

Hard to see him leaving the demons, though. Sounds like they're trying to screw him ($-wise, i mean).
