    Who is coming to Sydney 2005?

    If we had a free choice out of the possible trade options. Who would RWO like to see come and play for the mighty Swannies in 2005?

    ottens is the pick

    can play ruck as well as key position.. poetentially!... the problem is wether he can fulfill it. I feel simmonds would be good but is probably a little less versitile.

    We need the tall player.

    Only possible problem... we draft ottens and we apparently see him as a ruckman... do him and ball play at the expense of doyle???
    Theres not much left to say

        You could play Ottens out of the Goal Square, Barry Hall CHF, Magic and O'Keefe the pockets with Davis HF. Ball and Doyle could do most of the ruck work with Ottens relieving. Could be hard I guess having all 3 playing in one side. But it only takes one injury to eith Ball or Doyle to realise just how important it is to have a 3rd ruckman.

            Brad Ottens and Tim Notting.

            Get both of them and we will be laughing. Fill the needs we have and this duo would be easier to trade for than Bruce and Ottens.

                Not a problem. Doyle and Ottens both play well up forward. Our forward line with have so much height and even more potency now. And Ball probably only has a year left, Ottens, hopefully, has many.

                If Ottens does come to Sydney, our forward line will be a nightmare for oppostition defencces.

                  Brad Ottens and although he is not on the list, I would go after Luke Ball. I believe the Saints have made him a poor offer of around $250000 a year.

                    He will probably only leave St. Kilda for Hawthorn.

                    Life long supporter and he is very close with his brother. Think only a ridiculous amount of money would lure him north.

                            Get Ottens and play Ball or Doyle off the bench as we have been.

                            Bonus in having one more tall as I have always thought we need in the forward line.
