[Mop]

Soo... the state of play at the end of the first week of trade week period

Nothing happened.

 

[Obeanie1]

So...

Out: Tom Barrass

And In: Tom Barrass?

Haven't we done this trade before.

 

[Trebor57]

Hey leave eeyore2018 out of this.

It’s very important to consider the doomsday scenario for every single situation you encounter.

Has a team ever had this many Liams before? How many is too many? What if there are penalties involved for excess Liams.

If there are too many Liams next year and they keep getting beaten badly it will be a clear case of Liams to the slaughter.

 

[Aarick13]

Nah yuck.

Blues and Hawks are contenders next year. Their F1s could be 20+ after academy bids etc. That alone isn’t good enough let alone also losing our F2.

That can be Sydneys problem next year when we trade them for Warner with our 2026 first.

 

[MerryHell]

Nah yuck.

Blues and Hawks are contenders next year. Their F1s could be 20+ after academy bids etc. That alone isn’t good enough let alone also losing our F2.

They could be, but its unlikely they both make the GF.

Eagles want 2 first rounders / Hawks only wanted to pay 1 first rounder with a third rounder. In between is where it will probably land.

 

[CountryLad]

So we refused pick 14 for Barrass. Surely now we don't let him go unless it's for a top 10 pick in this year's draft.

Wouldn't be keen on trading him for future picks even if it's two future firsts given how poorly next year's crop seems to be rated compared to this year.

Baker I'd be more than happy to see heading to Freo

Wouldn't be keen on trading him for future picks even if it's two future firsts given how poorly next year's crop seems to be rated compared to this year.

Says who exactly?

This draft has some hype around it but no one actually will know for a few years how good it is.

I’ve seen nothing written about how next years draft crop is a poorly rated group.

There are some concerns that the draft might be quite compromised due to academy and F/S selections but certainly from what I’ve seen of the underage talent this year there isn’t a lack of quality.

 

[Yeahnahmate]

Well unless Baker nominates for the PSD with a 1 year year he won't be a free agent 12 months from now.

You pick someone in the PSD the terms can be set by the player.

Old mate thinks he’s a BSD, in reality he’s heading to the PSD

 

[KERRPOW]

catching up on this thread after lunch

 

[Bender_]

Weird that your boss calls you Bender too

What would you expect Chief to call me?

[Into The Black]

Who knows if Carlton have any interest in Barrass but if so how about 14 and Jack Carroll ? Gives Carlton their own Gov and Barrass show.

 

[Yeahnahmate]

I still think Barrass will be gone come trade period. I'm just more relieved we ain't using the pick we got for Barrass to then go to Richmond for Baker. Two of the three clubs win that trade and one gets significantly worse. And you'll never guess judging from the Vic media who gets the raw end of the prawn in that deal.

Look - I know I may be guilty of trying to embed new sayings into the vernacular with regards to the spinning of men’s hats and such….

But you can’t take two existing sayings and just mash them together. It’s rough end of the stick and come the raw prawn. You’ve sucked the meaning out of both there. This has outraged me more than anything else so far this trade period!

 

[eaglevision]

If we can somehow manoeuvre TB I to a pick that lands Travagalia I will happily meet all the bed wetters on here at Gate 3 at Optus and slap down the lot of them.

Use 3 and and 6.

Happy days.

Barrass to the Saints for pick 7 might also suit everyone apart from Barrass.

 

[stallon]

Carlton can't afford to pay Matt Owies

They have money for Houston though. They can get one of Houston or Barrass, id argue Barrass fills a bigger need for them, and its not close

 

[Opposite Kids]

My view (fwiw) is that most the trades are already done somewhat…AFL releasing info strategically (conveniently on Friday) to get the fans talking and build the drama for an “epic next week”

Will hold till I see what transpires…

 

[Quinz]

Oh no now we can't trade Barrass for Baker and next years pick 40. Whatever are we to do. Dear oh dear.

 

[Dark Sharks]

Who knows if Carlton have any interest in Barrass but if so how about 14 and Jack Carroll ? Gives Carlton their own Gov and Barrass show.

No.

Jack Carroll is worth absolutely **** all. From my understanding he still doesn't even have a contract for next year.

You're basically giving away Barrass for pick 14 again.

 

[stallon]

Id want a touch more, Carroll isnt worth a f2 that we wanted from the Hawks

 

[TOA.]

The Hawks have probably saved us from ourselves here

Trading pick 14 / Barrass for Baker was going to be utter lunacy

 

[Get_The_Gaff]

Trading barrass for overs and bringing in a top 12 draftee is a win

just to trade it for Baker is not a win its a loss IMO

 

[Get_The_Gaff]

That's worse than 14 and F2 .

Carroll worth pick 62

If we ended the trade period with Graham Dev , carroll and also kept 3 and 26 until draft night i would be pleased

 

[Into The Black]

No.

Jack Carroll is worth absolutely **** all. From my understanding he still doesn't even have a contract for next year.

You're basically giving away Barrass for pick 14 again.

Fair enough. But I like the kid and think he is a perfect age and fit for our rebuild .

 

[Obeanie1]

I always liked "This isn't that hard, it's not rocket surgery"

 

[NYJetsfor2029]

Surely Essendon's pick 9 for Hawthorn's two F1s is the play? the Dons have already conceded they have struggled to move up to get ahead of the Kako bid and will instead go down/into next year.

9 to WC for Barrass is pretty much where everything began before the Hawks went on their winning run and blew out their R1.

 

[Yeahnahmate]

I always liked "This isn't that hard, it's not rocket surgery"

A Baker in the hand is worth the equivalent of a second rounder is one that never really caught on as I’d hoped it might

 

[Obeanie1]

No.

Jack Carroll is worth absolutely **** all. From my understanding he still doesn't even have a contract for next year.

Barrass plus Petruccelle

For 14, Ashton Moir, Owies and Carroll.
