Recommitted Rowan Marshall [OOC 2027] - Requested Trade to Geelong, didn't get done

[Pure_Ownage]

I think for Marshall he wants to be closer to home.

I think its mainly that and partly the success thing.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

That pick upgrade from 63 to 58 really does tie that deal together nicely haha

I did laugh because it's so meaningless (especially since points end at 54 now although those picks can still be used in other trades). I think it will be a higher pick swaps ie a future 2nd for a future 3rd but they are on the right track.

 

[PortVic]

Nearly every deal on that fox sports article had them late worthless pick swaps.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Keep telling yourself that. One player doesn't make that much of a difference. And also Gameplan wouldn't have differed much from horse to cox's.

It does in their case if you actually watch Gulden. And it takes more than a few weeks to get structure right under a new coach.

 

[CatToTheFuture]

He was twice yes.

Once as a million dollar ruckman? Absolutely yes.

A second time on a contract less per annum than Marshall's? Lol

Yeah I agree the article has undervalued the trade a bit

I mean if it was last years draft it would still be a lame suggestion to throw in there as "moving the needle"... But in this draft which has been broadly talked of as shallow and compromised with academies for the majority of talent... I imagine almost all clubs are passing at the 58 - 63 mark.





Then again, that Lawson Humphries as pick 63 in the 2023 draft is looking like a decent call...

That's what trade week/fortnight is all about, meaningless late pick swaps.

Same
Think this will be around the mark or something in a three way with GC that will see roughly the same value

Honestly, it’s hard not to feel sorry for the Saints. Losing Marshall just feels like another chapter in a story that never quite turns the corner. Their fans deserve credit though — still showing up, still believing, even when everyone else knows how it ends.

Yeah they've only got about fifty other blokes coming in this off-season.

I don't know about that. Trading out a surplus ruckman for picks and like a pretty astute move

 

[FootyLad0]

I mean shit I’d go to the Saints too if they were overpaying me as well.
That kind of money is generational wealth.

It’s why I don’t blame Gaz for leaving for the Gold Coast or Buddy for Sydney.
Don’t blame TK for leaving the Cats to go Home and neither Jordan Clark when he did to go Home too, especially during Covid
Most footy careers are short, you can’t fault guys for wanting out to play somewhere else, especially with more opportunities or a bigger payday.

I think it depends on what picks st kilda need to close other deals bc theres no way we give 2 r1s but st kilda will want to sell it as 'we got a r1 plus x player for marshall'. So pick 19 and a later pick (for example future 2nd) that ends up part of the ryan/aleer/Flanders deals is likely.

Yeah I mean some of those picks will come in further in the 50s once bids are matched but they dont have the same value as previously (fair enough).
Humphries is a good example because port and Geelong spent all week haggling over meaningless late picks re esava-but one of the back end picks Geelong got from Port became humphries so maybe the pick haggling is worth something.

 

[CatsDan]

Whatever happens , we will get our man. We always do. The rest is window dressing

 

[Tasmanian saint]

find it funny people arguing what picks get thrown in for marshall, regardless of if is this year or next year or year 2033, saints won't see it as it will be used up or split for their 29 trades they got going on.

what they need to realize is just the net which is

out: marshall

in: flanders, ryan, whoever else.

That’s the thing we have the currency already to get all those deals done without out anything we get for trading Marshall

If you’re mortgaging future drafts sure

 

[LOZWILDA]

Geelong get Marshall and p63.
And Stkilda get some junk picks- F1 and 18. Which both end up in the mid twenties.

He was on plenty when Sydney took him.

 

[CatToTheFuture]

He was on plenty when Sydney took him.

The traded contract was 700k, which is less than Marshall's and no one is saying his is a cap dump.

 

[CatsDan]

Saints fans have been chest beating on this site and I don’t blame them but it’ll be a bad look to lose Row

No.

"Junk picks"

Cool story
