I'm assuming we have offered pick 7 to both clubs, and are hoping that they will try and outbid each other.
What would Geelong give us then? Wojinski (sp?)? What do the Kangaroos want for Harvey?The snag in that scenario is the Kangaroos and Geelong are attempting to trade with Collingwood, which has pick seven, but so far has demanded an extremely high alternative for its first draft selection.
The Magpies have told the Kangaroos that releasing Brent Harvey would get the deal done, while the Pies have requested any one of James Kelly, Kane Tenace, Steve Johnson or James Bartel from the Cats to complete the exchange.
Geelong has declared none of the Magpies' wish list are available as they form part of coach Mark Thompson's list of 15 untouchables.
While the Magpies yesterday denied they are in the race to trade for Ottens, they could secure him in the pre-season draft as an off-contract player with an annual $500,000 price tag as they have the fourth selection in December.
