Mega Thread Trade/Draft SuperMegaUltraThread - 2015 trade period edition

[Happy Mastenator]

Can't believe we're giving mcginnity another year. Geez.

Wait, what? Say it ain't so.

 

[bombard]

I for one welcome our new Honey Badger overlords.

 

[pantskyle]

Hearing Sinclair/Jetta deal is done.

Where pants? Where?!

Straight swap? :|

 

[JohnW]

I'm not sure he said experienced players. He said we had irons in the fire which I'm assuming he meant redden as he hadn't been done yet, Jetta and then he mentioned we'd try with Anderson but that it would be difficult. I don't see us going after 4 players. If we don't have the currency for Anderson, we don't have the currency for much else

Unless it's player for player.

Currency isn't just draft picks, i am sure you know that though.

 

[pantskyle]

Where pants? Where?!

Straight swap? :|

Got a message about it, am asking for more info.

Deal agreed between the two clubs is all I have currently.

And where did McGovern and Schofield finish in our B&F? Guess they sucked this year too.

Offensively he was better off the HBF he was better then all of our mids bar Shuey and Gaff.

But you are seeing what you are doing? You complaining that he isn't as all round strong as our best mids. Well no s**t. If we could get a Gaff or Shuey Mk 2 for Sinclair we would do it every time.

What we will get is the offensive side of a Shuey (which is basically what we are after) and a weaker defensive side.

The defensive side will need to be worked on but at worst he will take a tag and pressure off Shuey and Gaff.

I'm not complaining that he was as strong all round as our best mids, I'm saying he wasn't.

That doesn't mean I don't want him as he does offer something that our other mids don't. The good jetta would be a very valuable acquisition. The lazy, disinterested jetta that I saw towards the end of the year would be a disaster

You said he had a comparable season to gaff and shuey which is where I disagreed

 

[pantskyle]

Apparently the deal is done in principal with the final details being ironed out.

 

[SloppyJoe]

I'd rather hold onto Sinclair than trade for Jetta. Who is our back up ruck if Sinclair goes and Lycett comes in? While I would love to use Gov as a chop out in the ruck, and fwd and back and everywhere else (Multigovern!), he is prone to injury and should be protected from such the demanding ruck role if possible.

Good to see McDoogs back in player manager form.

On McGinnity, I'm a bit torn on giving him another year. Part of me says de-list and give his spot to a young 'un (we wouldn't get a trade for him, would we?). But the other part of me says his 90 games including 6 finals is handy depth to have.

 

[Keys]

Where did Sinclair come?

In his girlfriend

I actually don't know as I've only seen a top 10 and Sinclair wasn't in that

Under normal circumstances a straight swap of Sinclair for jetta would be ridiculous overs for you to pay but in this rather unique set of circumstances it is a distinct possibility that you might add some steak knives

Direct swap? If so, a fair and reasonable outcome for all parties.

Can you throw in some baseless speculation on the final deal to tide us over until it is announced?

Sure can.

Swans agree to include pick 14, now arguing about what we will throw in, suggestions have been A)A lucky red hat, B)Evil Krusty the Klown doll, or C)A mystery box.

Apparently the deal is done in principal with the final details being ironed out.

IMO:

Pick + Jetta for Sinclair = Very good
Jetta for Sinclair = Good
Jetta for Sinclair + pick = Below break even

 

[bungwahl]

Sure can.

Mystery box! Mystery box!!

 

[Jimmy_the_Gent]

I really should stop copying funny people.

I'm picturing Vozzo forcing McGinnity into the mystery box at gun point.

"But it's no where near big enough Craig"

Jetta for Sinclair = Good
Jetta for Sinclair + pick = Below break even

Jetta + Free Frogurt + Choice of Toppings - Potassium Benzoate for Sinclair = good

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Giants have signed Dawson Simpson so probably no chance of them getting involved in talks for Sinclair

On the offense side he-

Stuff it we are going in circles.

 

[Suma Magic]

That picture reminds me that Colledge is still up for trade.

 

[pantskyle]

If I was a betting man, which I am I think we are asking for pick 33 as well.
