He's 28yo and the perfect contrast to what we currently have. Depending on his contract $$, I'm pressing go on this trade in a heartbeat - plug and play AFEL quality ruckman who will ensure the incumbent is under selection pressure for the first time ever. It's basically a list spot in a specialist area we don't have sufficient depth in.
St Kilda is a strange choice - Marshall is pretty elite and going nowhere. He must really hate it at Alberton.

St Kilda like to have two rucks though don't they? Looking to recreate the old pairing with Ryder

They used to do this (don't we all know it after the Ryder stoppage masterclass he gave in the 2020 EF), but in the last couple of years they've been using Max King and whoever else is up forward (ie: Cooper Sharman) as the 2nd ruck.

Re: Trade Rumours 2024
It would be amazing if we traded Soldo in because the bloke we traded out made him obsolete.

After missing out on Soldo the year before we traded in Lobb. Swings and roundabouts.

Tom Morris:
GWS had been confident this time last week
James Peatling would sign a fresh three-year deal.
He still may, but he spent Sunday & yesterday in Melbourne meeting with Victorian clubs.
Hopefully we met with him

Yeah i was going to say, we try and bring Soldo in (he goes to Port), we lose Sweet because we won't play him, Sweet becomes Ports no.1 so now Soldo wants out, weird stuff!
Problem with someone like Soldo though, is he wants AFL game time and we have English and Darcy playing ruck and can play other positions where's Soldo is just a ruckman, Soldo would be depth? Unless we do play Timmy in another position and use Soldo as our no.1?
