Traded Jason Horne-Francis [to Port Adelaide in multi-club trade]

[philthy05]

Are GWS looking to use picks 3, 12, 15, 18 and 19 purely for the draft? Or do they want to get some players in via trade?

Maybe we could upgrade pick 33 or 43 for one those later picks and offer up Byrne-Jones or Bonner?

We genuinely need to trade away a player for 2nd round. Can't see it happening another way.

Hayes, Drew, Bonner, DBJ, Farrell. DBJ with most value in that lot perhaps as an All-Australian and club BnF although he was off it best this year. I know he just resigned but yeah either him or Drew

In all seriousness North have actually done fine out of this deal. So have West Coast. GWS showed up, bent over and handed over the lube to make it work for everyone else, and I salute them for it.

Yeah I think north have done well. What more can you hope for to get for a player that wants out than a similar pick + a future 1st on top. That’s a good deal.

Also west coast, despite people knocking them to get out of pick 2 and the private school vic boys and into hewett territory , whose not far behind, if at all those vic boys plus get another pick. That’s good for them.

Ports given up a lot, but the fact we get future 2nds and 3rds back helps a lot,

In the end rozee butters jhf Bergman sinn to look forward too in our midfield.

I really rate that group of players as a future midfield. High end young talent there.

There's absolutely nothing being said in this thread that hasn't been said 100 times already over the last week. Nobody is changing anyone else's mind. Should just lock it until something happens.

Immediately after we get a brand new rumour - from a Port supporter what’s more - that Adelaide are putting together a counteroffer, you want the thread locked because quote “there’s absolutely nothing being said in this thread that hasn't been said 100 times already”?

Eh? It's finally getting interesting with the talk about Adelaide getting involved. Time for you guys to shuffle out and let your better dressed cousins in.

Call me crazy or naive, but I am Port, I would be accept (albeit reluctantly) to package Bergman as part of a JH-F trade.

I have not seen anything from him yet to suggest he should be regarded as an untouchable asset, granted still very young and recent first round draft pick.

Definitely neutral when it comes to this and other non Carlton trades, but if/when push comes to shove, Port may have to give him up.

Bergman doesnt want to go there which is the issue.

 

[texanmike]

From a good source: Port deal has fallen through but JHF still wants to come home.

Crows are putting a deal together (will need to trade one of their young stars).

Can anyone confirm if this guy is a ITK or sprouting shit? IMO it’s bs.

 

[Makeshift Park]

No it’s not.
We’d be happy to take the draft picks from a third party who would trade him in.
He can pick whatever team he likes.

 

[Bearded Clam]

They didn’t go after a contacted player, JHF nominated Port? Overs at North is every year because you constantly * it up. Everyone’s bored of North.

Geeezuz dude..
This was the first picture of you that came to my mind when reading your post…



and… “everyone is bored of North”??…

sorry, what???…

The last 10 or so weeks North has given the AFL football world more to talk about (for good and bad reasons) than any other club in a long time!.

far from boring… it’s been captivating!.. highs and lows and everything in between…

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Rachele or the crows can gtfo also

Crows are not offering rachele and the crows dont have the currency to get it done.

Lol. He was joking m8. **** me you people are gullible.

I recon you're onto something here

Thats a different issue and maybe a third club can be found that he wants to go to that will give picks but its pretty late in trade week for that to be realistic. Either way a good player from port is not going to be willing to go to north its not realistic.

haha just checked his other posts, a day ago he’s claiming the deal would be announced on monday, clearly this deal is going all the way to the deadline Wednesday, full of shit.

Of course its going on to until late Wednesday, even if a deal has been done the AFL will love the speculation & media attention.

My point was that this Powerade poster is talking shit, anyway I feel the deal will get done but port will most likely need to pony up a decent player to get it across the line.

 

[Duckimus Prime]

Or they could just hold him to his contract and force a bidding war between Adelaide and Port next year?

You really don't get it do you? There won't be a bidding war. Just like there is no bidding war for Izak Rankine. Horne-Francis wants nothing to do with the Adelaide Football Club. Next year, North will be trading with Port and Port only.

 

[Crow till I die]

Does Fabian have to give back his MG if the trade doesn’t go through?

Shades of john platten to carlton there re giving back the car

 

[perplexed]

Lol. He was joking m8. * me you people are gullible.

FFS nobody thought it was legit, we were just having fun at your expense.

But seriously, on the night JHF asked for a trade everyone, including you, knew Port didn't have the draft capital to get it done. Port obviously knew the same. What do you think they have been up to? Why discourage players from being traded out when that is the only thing that make this trade work? It seems like they want to kill this thing off. What has been the point of this charade?

North fans - realistically would you accept 8,15 and 18?

GWS are potentially players here
Port F1 + 33 for 15 and 18

Could try get 12 instead of 15, but might have to add something extra to GWS.

North get their “3 first round picks”
Very similar to Richmond’s offer last year
9,17,28 + CCJ (F2 equivalent)

Why the hell would GWS do that deal?

Doubt it would need 12 not 15 at the least and even so doubt North agree. They have stated a guaranteed top 5 selection OR a quality player needs to be attached this does neither

Why would GWS agree to that at all?

8,15,18 = 3648 points
9,17,20(F2),28 = 4083 points

Pick 40 equivalent differential
That’s also basing F2 as start of 2nd round

 

[Boak10]

Why would GWS agree to that at all?

Stronger draft next year.
Pick 8-12 + 33

For 15 and 18 is about right
Pick 9 is break even for GWS, stronger draft makes it slightly more, plus the fact going up the order always costs a slight premium

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

Port are a 2nd rounder short, not as short as most North fans seem to think. 8, F1 and 33 is more than any trade since Judd and if North want more than that, JHF simply doesn’t get traded this year.

The second rounder they need access to next year is for Rioli effectively
