It’s just about done. He’ll be at the Dogs.

Conca, Lloyd, Miles, Ellis & Menadue gone.

Big chunk of depth if they all go.

How sure are you all of those are gone? I'm assuming you're talking C.Ellis not B.Ellis

Where is Menadue going?

Ellis & Miles - GC
Conca - Freo
Lloyd - Dogs

Yeah Corey. If they all go, it’s a bit of a strategy rethink. I’d go to the draft but look at a couple of delisted free agents or mature state leaguers in the rookie draft. What to keep some experienced types as back ups.

Big off season. But that can wait.

Dunno. Picking up a host of mature age state leaguers would be a mistake. Rookie draft has been kind and we took Higgins with our first pick. Back our recruiters to find and the club to develop. Markov, Garthwaite types are much better back ups than 28 year old list cloggers.

i doubt they all go.
Hampson, Griff are gone.
Prob Townsend and Drummond as well. Stengle a chance.

then 2 or 3 of the ones you mention, and I would include BEllis and maybe Moore as chances to be traded as well.
 
If Lloyd Miles and Cellis go, then Towner definitely stays

No need for rehashed ex-afl for depth.
BEllis Garth Markov Menadue Towner Baker
Then Balta to come

Go directly to the draft.
And spend big on the VFL side for quality strong mids.

Why are we getting finals into Conca if he’s taking up the Freo option.
Get butler or Brandon back in.

I wouldn’t be very amused if one of our premiership players (2018) did a buddy and played his next game with someone else.

Who the hell is going to replace these guys?

Whilst I hope we invest in mids through the draft, we still need some senior depth that can plug a hole when required in the seniors, normally successful sides have a good vfl side below them

No we should play the players on our list this year who we think can get the job done this year.

In any case Conca Premiership Player could add value in any trade.

Yeah but Conca is a free agent, we get pick 19 at best
play the best 22 available on game day, not the best 22 available next year.
