[SydneyRox]

it's early but meh

Ziebell and or our first pick (probably pick 4) will be on the table for a forward

You would be hoping Zibell starts to play a bit better, his value is becoming more speculative each week.

The Steins will be looking to pick up plenty of high draft picks in this upcoming trade period.

If you have one and are willing to part with up come and talk to us. Especially if you have another offer as we will see if we can beat it.

It's likely we will delist around 10 players this off-season so we will need the picks :P

Will re-view if we win the premiership before season end.

You're going into full rebuild? The team list isn't that bad.

That said, there's some good talent available in this year's draft but a number of them are KPP who won't score that well.

Yes we have some decent talent but we also have a lot of dead wood.

By my count we will be looking at trading away or chopping the following guys in the off-season: Nicholson, Clarke, Rutten, LRT, Lonergan, Georgiou, Byrne, Cachia, Crowley, A Graham, King, Clark, Maister.

In additions Brodie Martin, Nathan Gordon, Alex Greenwood, Brandon Jack, Sam Naismith, Kristian Jaksch, Malcolm Karpany and Luke Reynolds are fringe or not likely to get regular game time for a season or two.

That's 12-13 spots on our list we need to fill (we may keep and rookie King) and we'd rather do that through high-ish draft picks than late speculative ones.

Also we only have the one real captain option in our side in Kieren Jack. This needs to change so we may need to put some of our current talent on the table in exchange for some future or developed premium midfield options.

PS - If you fancy any of the above guys for a draft pick then hit me up.

PPS - Aside from K Jack, Jesse Hogan and Josh Kelly anyone else on our list is fair game come trade period.

That's a lot of culling mate.

There's a extremely shallow list of leftover players at the moment and the odds are you'll end up have to re-draft a few of these guys you're getting of or at least players similar to them.

Do you want to be even remotely competitive in the next couple of seasons?

Remember you are also subject to movement limitations which will be governed by a rule change vote in the near future.

We are not going to be competitive if we have to rely on any of the guys above to score mate - that is my point. We need to get some talent on the list and we've got a better chance in the draft than waiting for these guys to improve. Only a few possibly have some improvement left in them anyway.

We are aware of the movement limitations Ringo. We may not end up ditching all these players in one go but in two seasons time I doubt any of them will still be at the Staines.

The other option for us it to go in to next season with as bad a list as this year and finish last again...And then again in 2016...

Ah, I see.

Just interested to find out the plans of some of the competition.  ;)
