While stats never tell the whole story, appears we already have a version?
Patrick Lipinski vs Max Holmes

I'll happily have both on the list.

Ben King set to sign and remain a Suns player going forward. Can cross him off the list.

Other remaining trade targets that have been mentioned on various outlets; Bailey Smith, Max Holmes, and Jamarra Ugle-Hagan all remain unsigned. Max and Bailey seem almost achievable, but getting Jamarra over the line will take something!

Ben Ainsworth as a free agent is another that people have talked about.

Nah. Believe he re-signed.
A long term, big money deal too.
It's official now. 5 year deal with Port.

Don’t want Smith or JUH unless they are prepared to take under what Nick and Jordy signed for. So I think that will put paid to that.

Hmmm... Smith might if rumours are true, and perhaps sign for unders, but doubt Ugle-Hagan will leave the Flogs.

Perhaps my fav player outside of the Pies; little shit he is.
Doubt he could be enticed away from Punt road though.

How 'bout a trade to the Pies?
Surely he's UnRFA by now? You'd think we'd be an obvious home for him.
Foxtel scuttlebutt muck-raker has him out the door come trade time....
Imagine if we snaffle him and Bailey Smith to give us some more run in 2025?

I don't care who we have to push out the door to get those three players into the fold next season...

Let's be honest, our recruiting staff, led by Derek Hine, couldn't spot/draft tall timber talent if it bit them on the proverbial.

It has been an ongoing disgrace how bereft of talent our recruiters have left us in the KPP stakes outside of tall father-son selections the past 15 years.

^ That was McStay, they did get him, for that exact purpose, but long term injury has cruelled him, without him we would not have beaten GWS in that Prelim final, we miss him terribly, now , huge loss, hard too cover.

Fair to say we aren’t trading for a KPF in the near future either. No draft capital for this year and I’m fed up with the constant trading of first and second round draft picks anyway. Our only options for a new KPF this year and probably next year are Free Agency or a salary dump from WB, GC or GWS.

the Rowell and/or Cadman discussion could be correct, i am not sure how we would figure a trade. You would imagine we would have to lose someone of value? for the picks Degoey?
