Kerr is good but also a headcase and gets reported for stupid actions to often.

I dont think the Eagles would except this deal anyway, the best deal is to go after brent Harvey from kangas with pick 7.

T.Cloke was a guaranteed 1st rounder anyway so we arent missing out on quality young players completely.

Trav Cloke was meant to go around the top 20.

I'd love to do this. A kid, with plenty of talent for a guy who is a hard trier but lacks the polish we need.

Grimmer was a great player for Eastern 2002 when they won the premirship, missed alot of games including GF with a broken leg however before that impressed enough to get a spot at Kangaz, i dont believe however i would trade Lokan for him but who knows it could become a great move which we look back on and say they did one on the kangaz there.

Matty Lokan (he of the Krusty the Clown hairstyle) has had a good run at the pies, far too good for mine.

He is an honest tryer that has straight line speed and is a reliable kick, can tag reasonably effectively on the right match up. He has little else going for him in the footballing sense.

Not particulalrly good over head, lacks agility/mobility (turning circle like a barge) and can be a poor decision maker. As a mature age player he aint getting much better than right now either.

Biggest failing for mine is that he simply doesn't get ball, as someone said on another site, had more games than possessions.

Grima does have a lot of potential and for mine the deal would be worth looking into. Do not know anything about references to his character/attitude but, obviously they must be taken into consideration.

Until he does a Mahoney on us and y'all go "sheet! why'd we let him go jethro?"

rand corp, you took the words out of my mouth. Only 4-6 touches a game and sometimes tries too hard. He is serious trade bait.

So is there any news on this one?

I'd love for it to happen.

Just incase you're curious:

And yes it is rushed, so hold to criticism.

I like it

from his profile on kangaroosfc.com in regards to his weight he has put on a couple of kilo's and will beef up.

Johnson#26 · Post by **Johnson#26** » Tue Oct 05, 2004 4:49 pm

He had a broken leg - before we deal, we must knwo the leg is ok.

He's recovered fine. He played in the grand final this year.
