Mega Thread Trade Period: Lets get that delisted guy. He could be good, yeah?

[bris tarangau]

He'd have to be a real Drongo to think we need Chapman on our list, I'd pull Goo back from retirement than have Chapman on their list, shit why did Geelong off load him wake up he's shot.

Agree. The bald-headed one is too old and broken. Goo played more games than Chapman this season, and I thought Goo kept showing it every time he had body contact this year.

 

[bris tarangau]

He's last game would suggest exactly that! If we got 15 games out of him plus finals and we get a flag I'm sure your view will differ.

His hamstrings are shot. Will struggle to get games out of him, definitely not 15!

 

[bris tarangau]

Reiwoldt!!!!!

That is no progress. Teams like Freo, WB, Melb, may be more interested than us.

 

[bris tarangau]

Playing list manager for a second, ignore this if you're not interested in a bunch of complicated hypotheticals that won't happen.

It seems that Essendon are not satisfied with pick 22 for Crameri, and given that Essendon are supposedly interested in Sewell, perhaps we could facilitate a three way trade between the clubs?

Something like

WBD gain: Crameri, pick 52 (Hawthorn)
WBD lose: pick 22, pick 38
ESS gain: pick 22, Sewell
ESS lose: Crameri, pick 44
HAW gain: pick 38 (Dogs), pick 44 (Essendon)
HAW lose: Sewell, pick 52

Then looking at the Savage trade, I don't think we will be able to gain Carlton's first round pick, even as an upgrade on our first, so inevitably, I think we will get 28 and some pick swaps. I don't think it's fair but it is what it is. Sav wants to go and I don't think we'll force his hand unless Carlton are unreasonable.

CARL gain: Savage, pick 38
HAW gain: pick 28, pick 29

Then finally there is the Longer trade. I don't think our first on it's own would be quite enough. And with Brisbane's list situation, I think we could also offer Grimley in a trade. Some will shout me down but remember when Lisle was the next big thing? I'm willing to gamble that Grimley won't be much special at AFL level.

BRIS gain: pick 19, Grimley
HAW gain: Longer

Now I'm aware that convoluted trade scenarios made up on BigFooty never actually eventuate but I just did this for a bit of fun. Ultimately this would leave us with an overall of:

IN: Longer, pick 28, pick 29, pick 44
OUT: Savage, Sewell, pick 19, pick 52

Ultimately with Franklin, Ellis, Guerra, Osborne and Bailey not being on our list next year, we would end up going into the draft with picks 18, 28, 29, 34 and 44. Possibly upgrading Langford/Ceglar if we think we're better off delisting a couple more players.

I am sure you have done a lot of work to put this together. However, reading it gives me the losing feeling.

Any interest in Jamar?

 

[Whirling Dervish]

His hamstrings are shot. Will struggle to get games out of him, definitely not 15!

Does that really matter? Our time is right now and he's a proven match-winner. Especially now we've got free agency there's no need to use fourth or fifth round picks speculating on unknowns. I see it as low risk high reward and even less risky than either Dew or Lake were.

 

[Brishawk]

Any interest in Jamar?

None. One good season does not a good player make.

 

[tazhawk]

Any interest in Jamar?

Not even at Box Hill.

 

[tige19]

Any interest in Jamar?

Not unless he was coming over as a volunteer to clean the players boots, in particular Billy Longer!

 

[HomerJayS]

The swans have offered the fart a 9 year deal because they heard GWS were keen

That deal stinks!

 

[deano the hawka]

wonder where this puts longer is he off our radar ? or still a part of the future with hale probably having one more year, doesn't look good for lowden if longer is still a chance to come over can not see it happening now though, bit dissapointed i don't really rate mckevoy

 

[bindas12]

[Hoogmeister]

Big boy McEvoy...

 

[KINGBUDDY]

good pick up hawks, big boy with a big mark.

 

[Leather Poisoning]

Seems like we have paid too much but I like this big ugly dude.

Are we too top heavy?
Will longer happen, maybe we want him as a key forward!?

 

[Ripper Rioli]

Is McEvoy confirmed? If so, where?

 

[kezza7]

Haven't been following McEvoy much, but i have full faith that the recruiting team know what they are doing, considering our previous trades, and i'm sure he will be good for us.

Anyone been following the big guy and got some comments.

Is McEvoy confirmed? If so, where?

[LuvMyHawks]

Nobody believed me when I told you last week McEvoy was coming to our club.
