Warlord

And a medical team using new wave physio like whorethorn and brisbane have

And if North take him at 1?

Exactly, this isn't one of those situations where everyone involved in the deal should feel slightly unhappy for it to be fair. If we're trading pick 2 it should only be because it's a ******* great deal for us. Just pick 8 & 12 does not do anything for me, and that's without bringing Rioli into the situation at all.
And we'd better not ******* reach for Ginbey at pick 8.

Ginbeys been a solid riser, on some of the draft boards I’ve seen he’s in the 10 but yeah, we need something else pretty tasty to get us onboard you’d hope before we agreed to anything

I’ve often thought of all the players that have been in the past I’d pick Stephen and Maurice Rioli first.
People marvelling about Goodes and Fyfe would have there heads expoodle when Michael ran out and was a mix of the two, but harder

I hate south freo with a passion, always have but watching them two was the first time in my childhood i learned to just marvel at a player who wasnt east perth and actually enjoy it for the sheer awesome because it was footy.

That grand final against swannies was just gold and being at soo’s where Michael tore the dirty viccos a new scomo - then told them to stick their offers up their arse when all we were by then was a feeder comp for the Victorian premiership ponzi scheme …. As if you dont love the guy enough…..

BOND 007 WTF are we doing? Why are we apparently focusing on WA talent over best available despite an excellent retention record?

 

[Tugga27]

A lot of comments about the proposed trades saying "I could live with that" or "that's fair enough".

Pick 2 and Rioli for 8, 12 and Ports first rounder for next year is ordinary IMO.

I reckon we should just tell the clubs unless they offer something exceptional, don't waste our time.

 

[kranky al]

And if North take him at 1?

Start frivolous lawsuits against them till they are going broke then get him back by settling for a direct swap with gaff and they take gaffs salary on.

Also we can have a backup plan with live swaps on draft day

 

[amazingjoshy]

There’s a lot of detail missing from this trade.

Most importantly for us is what comes with 8 and 12. Could be anything from pick 33 to ports future 1st so there’s no point melting or blowing a load until we know what it is

What should be noted that our steadfast refusal to deal for 8 and Ports F1 has brought GWS into the frame. Given that 8 and 12 is no better than that there should be some optimism that we do better than 33 as the add on

Let’s wait and see what the actual proposed trade is in full before casting judgement

Recruiters suspected for days that the Giants, who have selections three, 12, 15, 18 and 19, would make a move for pick one and there is genuine traction towards that.

There would be a series of pick swaps this year and next but the crux of the deal being discussed would see Horne-Francis and Rioli head to the Power, GWS score pick one, the Roos get selections two and three, and West Coast eight and 12.

The Eagles were previously adamant they would not consider a similar deal that would have seen them receive Port Adelaide’s pick eight and a future first-round pick for No.2 and Rioli.

They would need to come out a winner with later pick swaps to agree to anything, as would North Melbourne, given Horne-Francis is contracted and only one season into his AFL career


I mean, I don't how many times it has to be said, but everyone melting already just re-read this bit. We didn't hold up the 3 way trade just to cop unders now

That is pretty big win imo

8&12 for 2 is pretty even, depending on who we were targeting.

Then absolute worst case it's 18 for Rioli which is already a win. If Port bottle it next year it could be a top 10 pick for Junior.

I don't see how that's a bad trade (if something like that eventuates)

 

[kerrazy]

After the highs of rhinos tweet to today's renewed rumours, I've decided to get back on the melt train.

[/QUOTE]

Nisbett Simmo and O'Brien, They all just signed away there jobs with this trade if it goes through. Our supporter base is going to be ruthless on them in 2023. It's a good test to see how dumb they really are if this trade goes ahead.

It's basically giving pick 2 for one of pick 8 or 12 because chances are one of those later picks will not make it. Ridiculous. While pick 2 has a high chance of being a next generation talent.

 

[sey666]

Seems we are not the only club that is folding

Giants' play for top pick could unlock JHF trade

The three-club trade option discussed earlier this week involving North Melbourne, Port Adelaide and West Coast has grown to include the Giants and could see other deals and more clubs also folded into it.

 

[archiemoses]

If Cadman and Sheezel are firming for pick 2 and 3 we should do a trade with Bombers.

Give 2, 40 and future third
For 4 22 and future second

Pick 22 in addition to our 20 and 26 would be great positioning for day 2.

And we get Warlord at 4.

Win.

 

[WCEswift]

8,12, 15 or 19 maybe?

 

[WCErevival]

Why are people melting when nothing has happened

 

[HoneyBadger35]

How ****ing good by the journos by the way.

Basically, the boss has just sent an email to you at 4:59pm on a Friday - ‘Can we meet 9am Monday’.

Now we’ve got all weekend to sit and stew, with no progress being made for days, and just ponder all the outcomes.

Content machine never sleeps, baby.

 

[Jupes]

Eagles give: Pick 2, Rioli, pick 26
Eagles gain: Pick 8, Pick 12, Future 1st (Port)

North give: JHF, pick 1, future 2nd
North gain: pick 2, pick 3, pick 15, pick 26

GWS give: pick 3, pick 12, pick 15
GWS gain: pick 1, pick 33, future 2nd (NM)

Port give: pick 8, pick 33, future first
Port gain: JHF, Rioli

Something like that?

using suma's market value points chart again and assuming some values
(JHF = pick 2, rioli = 25, Ports F1 = 12, Nth F2 = 19)

eagles out: 3327
eagles in: 3248

norf out: 6067
norf in: 5759

gws out: 3877
gws in: 3949

port out: 2570
port in: 2885

port huge winners here do not want. we should be the biggest winners since this is all only going to happen because of our goodwill. north would want a lot more as well i'd assume.

it's getting closer though

 

[briztoon]

Soooooo many pages. Apart from replying to Obeanie1 I haven't read a thing. Are you actually getting 8, 12 & Ports F1?

I mean, it's ok, but still feels unders.

That works would be cool with it. In fact would be the best deal for us

I'm not huge on 8 and 12 for 2 TBH.

I want something exceptional.
That's not it.

 

[AsterixTheGaul]

If we end up with 8, 12 and 18/19 for 2 and Rioli, I’d take that. Happy that the talk is for something else later.

Its probably the best we could get ...id take it tbh.

If we get ports future first it will be fun deathriding them again next year.

It says that north get ports future 1st not us .

 

[Truckosaurus]

The other 3 % ?

The same as the other 97% but it's actually trade week, we know the draft order and have seen more of the possible draftees.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

There’s no clarity on what else we’d be getting. All that’s discussed at the moment is 2 and Rioli for 8 and 12, with unspecified “they’d need more” comments from journos.

Our board (and the earlier trade chat in the week) is the only source of the F1 discussion.

2 for 8 and 12 is ok. Rioli for F1 is good. I think general pulse is most Eagles fans would take it but also plenty of sentiment to just wait until draft night and see who gets itchy to jump ahead for Cadman.
