So I kinda really really rate Redden and I'd be ridiculously keen to have him at the Eagles.

What will it take to get it done lads? ;)

But more to the point, any idea why he has picked the Eagles? From what I gather he's got no WA connections and he's from SA, with a number of Vic clubs interested in him.

I don't understand, but I'm pretty stoked if this is true.

I was very surprised to see a link to WCE as well! Hails from Glenelg in SA, and the Vic clubs are always in the mix... So interesting to find out why he's looking at the Eagles!

Good player though. Would have to be worth a first round pick from any of the finalists this year.

I'd happily give up our first rounder for him in all honesty.

Only real attraction I can see is premiership window, can't see us being able to throw massive amounts of cash at him!

Really though do you need another Priddis which is what you would get with Redden.

latest reports are that Redden may stay though - Apparentlly his issue was with Leppitsch and that is being addressed in house.

Priddis is our only player over 30 though and bringing in Redden will give him the support necessary to potentially prolong his career or at the very least give him the chop out he may need.

Also gives further depth to the line that before this season was widely perceived as our weakest.

Furthermore, in my view he's an upgrade on Scott Selwood.

Is he close to Yeo at all?

He's from Glenelg and there for, will be at Adelaide ;D

If we don't get atleast a first round pick for him I think Id kill someone.

Are Redden and Rocky really close or did I just make that up?

They are close and Rocky has spent most of the day trying to convince him to stay.

If I was West Coast is put up or likely 2nd round compensation pick + Lycett for him

She whole situation is strange, I think someone has made him a huge offer. Hope it's the blues redden for bell works for me. Rather it to be redden for Thomas

I still don't understand why he wants to come West haha.

Only reason is he might be mates with Yeo but Rocky is his bestie so surely that outweighs that?
