    He and Baz can compare notes on groin treatment.

      I also agree that the time for St Kilda has been and gone to be honest. No Fraser Gehrig anymore and Thompson (Always an underrated player imo) plus several others with not long to go including Hamill. They havent really got anything in the way of young blokes coming through yet (That I believe will start next year), and so have to rebuild. And then that coupled with the fact that Ross Lyon is trying to play a game plan that is never going to suit their list they have with players like Riewoldt. They could prove me wrong, but I really feel that St Kilda are a long way off from challenging for another flag, no matter how good their list appears on paper.

      If we could get Luke Ball right injury wise Id be more then happy if we went after him. A huge gamble to take but if it came off it would be a very good trade indeed.

      How about Ball and Koschdizke for Mcveigh, Jolly and Bevan

          can this thread be split into,
          "Players we would like who we might actually get"
          and
          "players who would be great if we had a genie"

          i mean, what's this "what about Hodge" talk all about?

            Well, "My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who " heard Hodge wanted out. I guess it's pretty serious.

              I'm with you on that - they are sensational to watch - wish our boys could play like the Cats do. oh well!

              We need some Rod Ashman or Wayne Harmes types - and a Mark McClure circa 1975 - purely for his looks (prior to going to seed ) ;-)

                    Jaymie Graham has resigned with Eagles.

                    Shame.

                    Playfair could be a possibility. Same with McGregor.

                    In the end, I doubt any trades will happen for us.

                        C'mon... Don't be so pessimistic.

                        I'm sure the Swans will give up a round 1 pick, and three of our emerging youngsters like Jack, Barlow & Schmidt for yet another ageing player.....

                          the best answer is stick to the draft, no more trading for players unless we trade some of our players for draft picks.

                                I never said you did name him, but you grabbed it and ran with it and continue to run with it against popular opinion that he is known by most in these circles as 'eski'.

                                I just thought if you were so keen to get Nicoski to the Swans it may have been so you can christen him Nolcho and change your location to Nolchoville.

                                Pretty simple really, I'm surprised you didn't know what it meant.
