No1Blue - tell me how many trades of any quality have actually come off in the last, let's say, 5 years?

The dogs won't trade anyone of any note, full stop. They may give us Rawlings if we can coax him out of retirement.

We have to GROW OUR OWN, or hasn't that sunk in yet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And with AB we are actually growing our own. So for once we are developing someone who really cost us nothing except a spot on the rookie list in 2004 and yet, that's not good enough?

Now, lets look at someone like Russell who cost us a first round pick and jumps at shadows...........great skills out wide on his own but who would I keep if I had to choose? Guess?

No1Blue, you haven't told us why the Bulldogs would agree to that trade
