That was posted by some random, not even the dude running the chat. It has as much legs as some drunk calling up SEN reporting it.

Not sure if this has been written already but the guys on the heraldsun's live chat reckon:
Cripps and Pick 71 to WCE for picks 38 and 57.

I'd almost prefer they let him go in the draft.

not the best, I agree, but 38 would be better than nothing....

The should offer WCE a can of coke and half a box of cold Etihad chips for Brown and tell them to f*** off if they don't take it. Lets get Boughton and Zac Clarke by offering the same deal to Freo. -Cripps, and 71 for those two seems better. Ross doesn't usually play hard ball.

I would seriously send him to the draft instead of taking pick 38, which is a speculative pick anyway. Or do a deal with freo.

Yeah! Just ask Luke Ball. Soft as butter that Ross Lyon. Loyal too!

That would suit me if he let them go to the preseason draft and got them for nothing. Xav and Goose went for nothing and anyone else he didn't rate just got delisted.

What would people's thoughts be on:
Cripps and pick 43 for picks 21 (likely traded pick from Dogs for Koby Stephens) and 57?

West Coast will get 41 not 21, so not a chance of this happening!

In saying that, We should trade Cripps + 71 to WCE for picks 38 + 41.

That would leave us with a compo pick, 24, 34, 38, 41, 43, 53 etc. Before trading for Hickey.

Four 2nd rounders isn't too bad!

Even if we trade 53 instead of 71, it's worth the upgrade!

That trade sounds more like it to me.

When we get Hickey there is only one spot available on our list, to fit all those picks (13 + 24, 34, 38, 41, 43, 53) we will have to delist six players and all but Ledger and Clarke are contracted.

Have I missed something, when was it announced that Ledger wasn't a required player???
Or does he want to go???

What?? We haven't upgraded anyone yet!!!

We've delisted 3, Goddard's gone, Raph Clarke will not be retained, Blake probably shouldn't be either & Cripps will be gone.

1 pick, probably 24, will be traded for Hickey, & Tom Lee comes on.

If we don't elevate anyone, this leaves us with 13, 34, 38, 41 & 43. Not that bad really!!!!

I'm expecting that there will be a couple of offloads of players that are around the fringes (Jones, Raph, Blake). They might even offload Ray to the Demons oncve the BJ compo pick is sorted. I think there still alot to play out in the trade period for us!!

No way I'd get rid of Fisher nor Ray.

I think half the people on these forums think just because you get a high pick thinks you're going to get a star, what rubbish.

They can turn out crap or become home sick. Majority of them would be 18 years old and would take 3-4 years minimum to become a decent player.

You simply don't get rid of key position players...

From a generally reliable source on BigFooty (Brian Speaking) Mitch told West Coast to get f'd today and that it was either us or the WAFL next year! Huge development!
