Confirmed. Howard was my first pick (I think around #15 odd).....but his hip injury this pre-season has turned me off a little, as he is now on the LTI (I think?). He was a bit of an unknown at draft time and I kind of need some help right now.

And I think I get that in McGinnity. He has had a super impressive pre-season (I know, I know) but I think he can become a part of West Coast's midfield rotation in 2010. And then of course the 2 round upgrade on the draft picks is very handy.

Alright - made this trade because Christian Howard is destined to be an SC jet - whether that's now or in two to three seasons time - it doesn't really matter to me - I'm just stoked to have him in my squad.

I think McGinnity is a little bit limited in terms of disposal - huge tank but don't think he'll ever average much more than 70. And I didn't see him playing 22 games this year.

The pick downgrades were worth it to get Howard into the squad.

Must admit that a lot of getting McGinnity was based on his 3 games in the pre-season where he managed to average 93 a game. If he can get 75+ during the main season, which definetly isn't out of the realms of possibility I will have done well.
