News Oh wow, oh heavy, heavy, heavy - Lachie Neale trade thread (5, 19 & 55 for Neale & 30)

[Scubaveg]

agreed

It’s not over yet, people lost there marbles last year as well. Then we packaged up picks to move up. Who says we don’t do that again this year?

WE just paid more for Neale than Free paid for Jesse Hogan! I want to vomit!

Check the trades again. We most definitely did not give Fremantle more than they gave up for Hogan.

We do have Fullerton and madden who are both very high potential kids to develop. Not first round draft picks by any means, but we haven’t missed the age bracket and we are now very good at developing young players.

If Fullerton stayed with AFL he was in all Australian under 15.. we would of had to trade for him.
What do people think he would of been 30-50 pick mark?

Surely the Hawks aren't keen on picking at 53, 90, and 108?

Perhaps we can package up some picks to land their future first rounder?

Double death ride (assuming we trade Beams)!

IIRC pick 53 is higher than they had in the year they brought in Mitchell and O'Meara. They're used to it.

 

[Ceebee]

Thats awesome we got a player of his calibre at our club,well done to all concerned.

 

[Dalions]

There is serious over reaction on here

Agreed!

 

[Harris Specter]

Haha Brisbane Lions social media team at it again.

 

[Fitzroy bears]

I reserve my judgement for now.

Yeah me too. Will loose my shot when beams gets done for 2nd Rd pick.... if that actually happens

 

[CarterS]

A bit over reading comparisons between trades based on point values to be honest.

 

[patfullfankezz]

We were always going to pay a premium for a contracted player. That's fair. What we didn't do is let the Victorian media bully us into getting Collingwood involved and potentially get screwed by two teams.

I'm impressed.

 

[Dylan12]

Values him at pick 3 approximately.

Cheers, I was more referring to the and part i.e. we gave up pick 6 and what else (subtracting the pick 30 from the 10 or whatever it was).

 

[Bucking Beads]

We always seem to pay too much for anyone we trade in.

The fact you think that should probably be a sign to you that your reasoning is clouded

 

[Harris Specter]

It's what happens we are not a Victorian team.

Also when a star like Neale wants to come to us, we get it done.

 

[yakka man]

Legit can't wait to see what he does for you guys next year. Gun player and fantastic club man. Congrats.

Pick 47, i.e. 19 - 30.

Is that what you meant?

 

[Ironmonger]

Haha Brisbane Lions social media team at it again.

We have five hours left to trade our social media team.

Otherwise we're stuck with them.

 

[Tom14]

I was expecting far worse earlier this week. Not as cheap as I would have liked, but mainly very excited to just get it done and not have to trade Beams to do it.

 

[Scubaveg]

I’m just stoked we added Lachie and still have Beams. No pressure to trade him now. If Pies don’t come with two first we keep him.

Beams, Neale, Zorko, Clugga, Berry, Rayner, now that’s starting to be some midfield!

Pick 6 and next year's first for Neale, (likely) #19-22 next year and 30 is pretty good in isolation. It's even better when you consider Noble and co. weaved themselves out of a bad position with Collingwood

 

[lions27]

Pull ya bloody heads in. The Neale deal is extremely fair, we have just landed one of the best inside mids in the comp.
Far out some of you would winge about having to travel to cash in a 1st division lotto win.
Who gives a flying stuff about the Hogan deal.

Thanks - hope Hogan works out for you guys as well.

All Australian under 15 - if he’d kept that form developing he would conceivably be first round or early second. I’m excited about this kid - basketball teaches finding space brilliantly and good hands. fullarton won’t have forgotten how to kick so I reckon a year as a full time athlete will easily bring him up to first round draft level.
