    To be honest it seems that an auction may not be the best route for high level players, so effective immediately I remove Hodge and Goddard from auction, and will pursue privately arranged trades. However I will put up someone else for auction: [span style='font-size: 16px;]Luke Ball

    A question on Nicholls - who will be first ruck at the Gold Coast - he or Zac Smith? Both are young, mobile big men, both get injured a little .... but if Zac Smith is still the number one big man, where does that leave Nicholls? It's not like Zac Smith is a heap older than Nicholls (thus Nicholls will succeed him). I have a pick I could perhaps offer for Nicholls, but I'm wondering if I might be getting a back-up ruckman for it....

    I am not in any position of knowledge, but[span style='color: #888888; background-color: #eeeeee;]AFL prospectus summarises him as 'Should be the #1 ruckman at the Suns, if he is he could be a valuable point of difference in supercoach'. 'When comparing Nicholls to other ruckman the name Natanui screams out, ' [span style='color: #888888; background-color: #eeeeee;]
    [span style='background-color: #eeeeee; color: #888888;]On Smith, 'Could find himselfbehindNicholls now and is no longer certain of being the #1 ruckman..'. [span style='background-color: #eeeeee; color: #888888;]
    [span style='background-color: #eeeeee; color: #888888;]fwiw.

    I'm really sorry grav but I just can't get 2 players in plus a pick, I can find one to delist, but others I have are worth more and I'd rather keep them.

Only 23 years old and will play every week he is fit for GWS 2013 13 games @ 63 (injured early on in the year) 2012 22 games @ 72 with a two scores over 100 Looking for draft picks only please Auction has an undisclosed reserve 'price', once exceeded he will be declared 'Selling', the auction to end 24 hours from that declaration.If he fails to reach the reserve price by the 9th Feb he will be withdrawn from the auction.Private trade options will not be explored prior to the expiry of the auction.
