I'm going to frustrate you all by not naming or even giving a hint out of fear it doesn't happen or others get wind. Heard a big name recruit is coming our way that could solve one of our KP problems. Very exciting if true. Fingers crossed.

Fair enough DD, there is many a slip between the cup and the lip.

Big Mid, Big Forward, Big Back and a Big Ruck please. Plus - everyone else 15% stronger and better skilled.

That is promising news. Hopefully the AFL draft will not poke a spanner into the works like we have seen before.
This is very early days but in the right direction. We do need another 5 or 6 . 
TFAF, you have it covered. We need the SS -  Strength and Skill, not necessarily in that order. Perhaps a bit of mongrel also.

Here we go again, normally you blokes wait until after the GF is done and dusted.

So DD I hope you weren't talking about Jaiden Hunter.
I want him back but if we are going to recruit we could do with another key forward as well.
Does anybody know Jaiden's status at Essendon?
I don't think he has been delisted.
Good signs that he is around the Club when in Perth.

Nope this is a genuine recruit I had confirmed on Thursday night but naturally tight lipped as there are certain rules to be followed. I think the wheels will be in motion now the GF is over. Jaiden I was told by the same “person” on Thursday night will play for us if Essendon don’t offer him another contract. Apparently will train with Essendon over the summer while they see how his back holds up. You will be happy with the recruit I guarantee you. But let’s wait and see a lot of water to pass under the bridge.

Sadly Michael Sinclair has retired and DBW will be having a gap year (travel). We desperately need to find a top ruckman. AJ doesn’t cut it unfortunately.

You have already picked up one from SFFC.

Bingo 🙂

Good news still a chance that Jaiden Hunter might be back if he doesn't get an extension at Essendon. Good luck to him. We will have to wait and see.
Other than the recruit you have alluded to, I trust we are still very active now and not leaving it to late. 
We certainly need a top ruckman and a back-up, as you say AJ is not the answer.  Then we still need height up forward as well as down back, and another quality mid.
