Re: Official Trade Rumours thread (all in here please)
Isn't it the same as Roberton last year? GWS delist him and then he becomes a delisted free agent, anyone can sign him if they can get him to agree to a contract.The Saintsational Man wrote:I'm not so sure about that, I think he would have to enter the Pre-Season Draft.bergholt wrote:If he doesn't sign and becomes a delisted free agent then everyone gets a crack at him. I'd be worried that Collingwood or Hawthorn or whoever approaches him at that point and sways him with promises of success and more money. As a small club, if we want to get high-rated players then we need to pay overs.MC Gusto wrote:Why do we need to trade for Bruce?

Our pick in the Pre-Season Draft is ahead of them, so let's say his asking price was $200,000 per year, over 3 years and we agreed to it, then we'd get him, as long as the other teams ahead of us don't take him.bergholt wrote:Isn't it the same as Roberton last year?

Sorry, did you read my post? Roberton last year didn't go into the PSD, so why would Bruce?The Saintsational Man wrote:Our pick in the Pre-Season Draft is ahead of them, so let's say his asking price was $200,000 per year, over 3 years and we agreed to it, then we'd get him, as long as the other teams ahead of us don't take him.bergholt wrote:Isn't it the same as Roberton last year?

Re: Official Trade Rumours thread (all in here please)
Some club will grab him before the end of the 2nd round. Id be very surprised if he wasn't taken before pick 30.matrix wrote:too bad
if garlett is about come the second round we'll grab him for sure
Spencer White was a speculative 2nd round pick . If we end up with say three 2nd round picks to play with this year, then hell yeah I would pick Garlett if he was available.

Re: Official Trade Rumours thread (all in here please)
In those days we had to suck it up, and rely on our decreasing Zones and inept administration. Now we'd get 4 no 1 picks in a row. You bewdy! But of course we'd be broke by then....[/quote]Verdun66 wrote:Let's trade everyone with more than 10 games -that way we can re-visit the 80's and get 4 wooden spoons in a row!
We could then get 4 number one draft picks in a row and trade them all for WAFL reserves players!

As it stands we have...matrix wrote:actually what are our picks???
ive been a bit lazy on that front
i know we get three and something in the twenties???
#3, #21, #37, #55
- this takes in to account that neither Adelaide nor Essendon have 1st or second round picks nad also that GWS have a mid-1st round compo they have activated and GCS have an end of first round compo they have activated.
- it does not take in to effect any likely compo picks for free agents.... e.g. Buddy, 1st round; Betts, end of first round etc. Adding these in would leave us with...
#3, #23, #39, #57
People are saying that it is a shallow draft in that the top end quality (i.e. first 5 picks) is great nad then 6-40 are relatively even, but then it falls away quickly. This would suggest we should aim to load up on picks in the 20-40 round i.e. 2nd rounders. Would also suggest that it might be better to get a GOP rather than a pick above #40 i.e. for Chips or as collateral for a 2nd rounder for Joey or Dal if they were to be traded.

It also means that Norths 2nd round drifts further…Richter wrote:Fair point... if both go elsewhere (and assuming band 1 or 2 compo for each) then could leave us with...dragit wrote: Dale Thomas & Colin Sylvia could impact too.

I hope like hell we don't lose Dal for 30+, even if they throw in a massive bag of Delaney spuds.
Re: Official Trade Rumours thread (all in here please)
But dragit from what I am hearing re. this draft the difference between say #10 and #30 is not likely to be very much as the level of players after #5 until #40 is very similar. Hence we would potentially be better gaining say either 2 x #30 for Dal (or #30 and a depth player/GOP) rather than a single pick around the #10-15 mark.dragit wrote:It also means that Norths 2nd round drifts further…Richter wrote:Fair point... if both go elsewhere (and assuming band 1 or 2 compo for each) then could leave us with...dragit wrote: Dale Thomas & Colin Sylvia could impact too.

GWS withdrawn offer to Buddy as they believe he has signed with Sydney. Un effing believable.

Wow! Tippett and now Buddy for nicks. Incredible.8856brother wrote:GWS withdrawn offer to Buddy as they believe he has signed with Sydney. Un effing believable.
I suppose they have Bolton and Mattner who have already gone. Mumford likely to be traded. Likewise Jesse White. Goodes will be 34 by the start of next season, and O'Keefe 33. So they'd presumably need to offer Buddy a long deal - say 5 years, and back-end it so that he'll get the big bucks after Goodes and O'Keefe retire.
Nevertheless with Tippett on megabucks too you'd have to think that one of their young mids would surely have to pop out the other end? Parker, Mitchell, Rohan, Hannebery, Jetta, Kennedy - all are 25 or under so will presumably be looking for increased $$ in their next contracts...

Rohan is coming back from a fudged up leg and Jetta's value probably eased after a season of injury and nothingness.Richter wrote:Wow! Tippett and now Buddy for nicks. Incredible.8856brother wrote:GWS withdrawn offer to Buddy as they believe he has signed with Sydney. Un effing believable.

Parker, Hannebury are guns and worth much moola.
Mitchell is young and probably will turn out well and Kennedy is a great player

Does that make sense?
Still, the aim is always earlier picks so that you can choose, rater than wait to get whats leftover.
I really hope we utilize our strong PSD position on a player like Bruce or Delaney.

Re: Official Trade Rumours thread (all in here please)
so apparently the hawks can get a round one priority pick for losing buffy?
trade radio talking around 17 to 20ish
so that will push is back one
not sure how it all works
not up to speed with all this trade and FA stuff
dragit or others might be able to shed light on this?

Re: Official Trade Rumours thread (all in here please)
I wouldn't be surprised if Hawthorn match Buddy's offer and force a trade. Buddy definitely wants out of Vic and will still seek a trade.
- Syd get Buddy and give up Mummy and pick 14
- GWS get Mummy and give up Taylor Adams
- Haw get Adams and pick 14 and lose Buddy
The Hawks still losing in the above trade however its much better than the compo - pick 18 or so.
