Re: 2015 - Draft & Trade Thread
What's all this rubbish about 2 first round draft picks for Weller? Another short arse player who can't get a game. 181 cm and 74 kg.St Chris wrote:Could still happen with future picks though....evo wrote:

But the Suns may be an attractive alternative if we can work something out, 10 and 16
From what I have heard that deal was never on, despite statement's from some experts on here.
Pick 5 for Weller and 2016 1st Round
Freo's 2016 1st round for Carlisle
McCarthy for Pick 5 and Freo's 2016 2nd Round
Something like that??? If we turn 5 into Carlisle and Weller, I'd go to work without pants on next week....
Just because he is apparently "really, really ridiculously good looking" doesn't make him worth 2 first round draft picks. Plus he doesn't have blonde hair.
If the Saints want someone that's nearly "really, really ridiculously good looking" they can have me for a slab (a week)!

Re: 2015 - Draft & Trade Thread
I think it's our pick 5 for their Weller and their 2016 1st rounder.
And he is ridiculously good looking. 2000 extra members right there.

Re: 2015 - Draft & Trade Thread
Obviously their first rounder from 2016 - not ours. So we get two first rounders for the price of one.

Re: 2015 - Draft & Trade Thread
We can then offer Essendon Freos 2016 first rounder for Carlisle.
That leaves us with Weller (5), Carlisle (2016 first rounder from Freo), Freeman (24) Rice (42) and we keep both our 1st and 2nd round picks for 2016 in tact.
That would be pants off for a week.

Wouldn't be enough, but shouldn't be too hard to get a late pick this yearCon Gorozidis wrote:
What about if we use 45 + 60 for Rice. That means if someone nominates him at 30 - we can still take him on points.

Still a lot of building to do.
It gets tempting to recruit dudes at this time of year, but we still need another good year at the National Draft or two.
See how many player names you can fill in
e.g Mc Cartin will be better than Riewoldt![]()
??? will be better than Riewoldt
??? will be better than Hayes
??? will be better than Goddard
??? will be better than Dal Santo
??? will be better than Montagna
??? will be better than Hudghton
??? will be better than Fisher
??? will be better than Gram
??? will be better than Baker
??? will be better than Dempster
??? will be better than Ball
??? will be better than Milne
Remember the guys on the right did NOT win us a premiership.

Re: 2015 - Draft & Trade Thread
This scenario would be ideal - not including lower draft picks or specific players going or coming back)
Saints give 5, 24 & 2016 (1st)
Saints get 8, Kelly, late teens pick
Late teens pick goes to Dons for Carlisle
Freeman for our 3rd and a player
8, Kelly, Carlisle and Freeman.
We just clocked AFL trade week 2015.

The club has never worried about premierships or how many wooden spoons we have won, just so long as we satisfy our ladies.

Surely Richmond are absolutely no chance of getting Carlisle. Just the bombers trying to pump up the demand for Carlisle through the media.

Re: 2015 - Draft & Trade Thread
Why is the Freeman deal taking so long to sort out? Surely both clubs can come to an agreement. What could change from this Friday to next? Is 2 weeks for the trade period too long?
Just seems like a lot of sitting around with thumbs up backsides rather than just getting in there and getting things done. Some of these deals throughout the competition have been on the table for 6 months prior to the trade window even opening.
