Pick 7, Preti, Lokan, McGough and O'Bree for Johnstone, Armstrong and Bruce

Not bad Prynny_22. But I doubt they'd do it.

Yeah, now that I think about it, trading Presti could leave a bit of a hole in the backline. But, we haven't got many other options.

Btw, I don't want to trade away any pick in the top 10.

What about McKee as a loose defensive tall for the Demons. Would they buy that? He's filled in for us at times as a loose man down back. Throw him in as a bonus to McG, OB, & pick 23 for Bruce & Johnstone. Don't want to give up pick 7.

You can not trade for quality players unless you are perpared to give up quality and guys like Lokan, O'Bree and McKee are NOT QUALITY. McGough and Presti are servicable players and other clubs may be interested but they are not good enough to trade for players like Bruce or Johnstone who are difinite quality

I for one am not willing to get rid of Presti! Cool

Afterall good backmen are harder to find than good midfielders!

Get used to it - Presti will be offered for a trade.

Bruce is good that's why we would need to give up something big to get him

Get used to it? This goes on every year...

It was Presti & Johnson (i think) to St. Kilda in 2000 for Everitt.

It was Presti & Didak to Port in 2003 for Stevens.

And he's been linked to Kangaroos, Essendon and Bulldogs...

This year it's Melbournes turn...

Wouldn't suprise me if the Chicago Bulls were involved too...

Just because Bruce hasnt signed he is automatically linked to Collingwood.

Presti may be offered for trade, all i'm saying is if you trade Presti, you better make sure you have someone good to replace him. Defenders are the hardest spots to fill if you ask me.

Besides how do u know for sure he will be offered?

Presti will still be value - but not at the Pies.

He is too slow, always gives up goals (check the stats) and disposal is not as good as Maxwell.

Max will be played in 2005 as will Tex.

Wakes is a very good mark in the air and we will get one more season from him.

Presti will be offered for trade and if not traded will be a good backup or one of the 4 on the bench.

MM likes to rebound quickly from defense - Presti does not have the pace or the skill sets required to do that.

Was beaten far too easily in 2004 and Rawlings tore him apart.

Agreed Joel - Presti would leave a big hole in defence.
