Brisbane Lion Josh Green is set to explore his options in the upcoming trade period.
An upgrade on Blair? Not sure what they'd want for him. |

No - I don't think he is. Blair has him covered no problem. |

I just posted this in the Trade thread:
JOSH GREEN | Brisbane Lions | 24
From the AFL App:
"BRISBANE Lions small forward Josh Green is understood to be open to a trade as he ponders a fresh start to revitalise his AFL career.
The talented 24-year-old battled for goalscoring opportunities in 2016 as the club blooded inexperienced key forwards and struggled to move the ball inside 50.
He kicked just 11 goals in 10 games after kicking 82 goals in 53 games between 2013 and 2015. In 2014 he was the club's leading goalkicker with 33 goals.
Green, who hails from Tasmania, should attract interest from clubs looking for a smart, small forward, given his age and his proven goalkicking prowess."
If we can't get Matera from Gold Coast, we should be looking at this guy. A smart(arse) small forward who isn't afraid to play for a free kick (like most talented annoying small forwards). Could flourish with the amount of football our midfield sends forward, and would complement our high flying smalls in Fasolo and Elliott (and the tall Moore and Cox) as he is a genuine crumber. Would consider Oxley (QLD native) in a straight swap.

Agree. May well improve at another club but is a small forward who offers nothing else at this stage. |

Exactly. We need a GENUINE small crumbing forward, not a part time mid / part time forward, sometime goal kicker.

Not until he's at least linked to Collingwood... then he can go to the bank with a little extra money.

I agree it's a need, but we might as well get a good one rather than one who doesn't even represent an upgrade on Blair. Would prefer to grab Ballantyne for a couple of years and see how Daicos and Brown develop but even then would rather focus on KPP types.
We get Fas and Elliott (hopefully) back next season. |

| He was Brisbane's leading goal kicker a few years ago. He's not as much of a hard nut as Blair, but isn't scoring the main issue? |

Blair, Fas, Elliott, Broomhead, Daicos, Brown. How many small forwards do we want?
It's a minor position and unless we get a freakish talent I don't think it's one we need to actively be seeking to improve. Green's ok and if he was cheap and and keen you'd look at it. I just wouldn't be putting much time into him.

Don't confuse small forward with crumbing forward. Fasolo, Elliott (and dare I say it, even Blair) are leading forwards. We have ZERO genuine crumbing forwards with front and centre nous.

I appreciate what you're saying and realise we haven't had a genuine F&C small forward since Krak departed. We do however actually have a very good one in Sidebottom, just can't get out of the midfield. The return of Fas and Elliott does mitigate the lack of a genuine player of this type and we will also add Daicos and Brown at the draft and both seem to have this in the bag of tricks also. KPP a much greater need. Either that or additional outside midfield depth to free up Sidey. |
