    I've had the feeling all along this year that Goddard is GWS bound. I can't see us getting him although I would happily welcome him.

      Would either Thomas or Goddard address our inability to kick enough goals in tight games?

      Surely we'd be better off going after a strong-marking, straight-kicking forward to help Sam out.

                Do you think I just enjoy picking random names out of the air for attention? All I will say to protect their identity is they work for an AFL club.

                  Our goal kicking woes ( not so much accuracy, but number of shots on goal ) probably stem from a lack of class in general. E.g quality of disposal into F50, placement of kicks in f50 etc. So going after some players with a bit of class is certianly a good idea, particularly when there aren't too many good forwards available anyway. I think we should be geoing hard at anyone who is going to improve us significantly. We've got the money to spend, lets go shopping.

                    Deal!

                    With 17 goals, he'd be our 3rd-highest goal kicker this season.

                      Now we're talking. He's ripe for the picking. The whole 'so near yet so far' scenario at St kilda has taken it's toll, he needs a change of scene.
                      Maybe the lure of some dish licker action with Plugger could seal the deal.
                      Would love to see him in the red and white.
                      Lyons owes us one, so pick 26 would seem an appropriate trade.

                        Perhaps we should swoop on Heath Shaw......he might stay out of trouble in Sydney with his brother

                          No you can't bet on that happening............

                          Goddard is a possibility unlike Thomas and the Swans wouldn't have to give up as much. The likes of Seaby and Bevan/Meredith might do the deal. I think Seaby will be chased by a few Clubs in need of a ruckman and that would put us in a great trade position.

                            Seaby + Meredith for Goddard would be awesome, doubt he will end up at the swans though.

                              We would have to give up a similar amount for Goddard as we would for Daisy.

                                I think I would prefer Goddard over Daisy for the flexability he offers. For the Swannies, having an ?nterest' in a player is one thing, getting them to the club is another matter!
