Matt Clarke wraps up the trade period - 6PR

 

[Boohemian]

Love how they've released just enough detail to set us off, but not the full detail. While these arseholes prattle on on trade radio.

 

[Jeremy McLovin]

Everyone here hoping they learnt from last year and all they've actually learnt is to do it quickly so we don't have time to barrage the club with mail telling them how stupid they are.

 

[CountryLad]

Big stakes when Freo are involved, it’s not the weekend where we can hide from Freo Co workers when we are getting reamed.

 

[Jukes]

My guess is:

WCE Receive: 12, Starcevich
WCE Give: 16, 23, 37

Brisbane Receive: 16
Brisbane Give: Starcevich, 43

Freo Receive: 23, 37, 43
Freo Give: 12

 

[Shifty1]

So this was the same Pick 16 that was absolutely not going to be part of the Starc deal?

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

What the hell is going on???

 

[Altum Volantes]

Hello darkness, my old friend...

 

[Ochre]

"Has to be ticked off by the AFL"

So I assume Greg Swann is currently looking at a deal that has us give 1, 2 and 16 for Starcevich and weighing up whether to reject it because it's unfair on Brisbane.

 

[Goroyals22]

Isn't cole our quickest defender behind hough ?

Doesnt seem to quick when he is 15 metres behind his opponent of after he has fallen over for no reason

 

[Dark Sharks]

So much over valuing of Starcevich by this ****ing club.

After all this effort he better still be playing AFL in 4 years time.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Dart throw, could it be something like.

Freo give: 12 for 19 and 22
West Coast: 16, 22 and 37 for 12 and Starc
Brisbane give: 19 and Starc for 16 and 37

Plus some filler on the back end. Gives Freo the McVee ammo and a late first to still use. Gives us Gold Coast points or a better pick however we approach it. Gives Brisbane a points boost.

Seems farken unlikely. No clue how Freo as the third team helps anyone here.

 

[Shueygod]

The only mutually beneficial trade I can possibly see would be something like

Eagles trade: 16 + 23 + 37
Brisbane Trade: Starcevich + 19
Freo Trade: 12 + 33

Eagles get: Starcevich + 12
Brisbane get: 16 + 33 + 37
Freo get: 19 + 23

Eagles trade 22 for Starce and 12 for 16 + 37, Freo get a more suitable pick for rivers, Bris get points a slight pick upgrade.

 

[Jootube]

So this was the same Pick 16 that was absolutely not going to be part of the Starc deal?

To be fair the response was "not at this stage"
Tell you what the stage moved ****ing quickly

 

[Corkintheocean]

So this was the same Pick 16 that was absolutely not going to be part of the Starc deal?

Pyke needs to send Clarke on a Collective Minds camp.

 

[Deplorable trumpster]

The club has panic in it's eyes. It's desperate to get in some experience. They are worried the supporter base will turn on McQualter and stop going to games if we don't get out of the bottom 4 next year. So much so that we are willing to overpay for any experienced player who will come. All the other clubs know this and use it against us.

 

[random260]

I will worship Clarke if we actually got a pick upgrade to 12

 

[Corkintheocean]

So much over valuing of Starcevich by this ****ing club.

After all this effort he better still be playing AFL in 4 years time.

Ofc course he won't be. He'll be medically retired this February after an intra club scratch match.

 

[Rowan18]

My guess is:

WCE Receive: 12, Starcevich
WCE Give: 16, 23, 37

Brisbane Receive: 16
Brisbane Give: Starcevich, 43

Freo Receive: 23, 37, 43
Freo Give: 12

I think something like this. Freo needs to move 12 back to pay for McVee

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

They really want us to suffer...

 

[MaxHunt]

Seems to rule out a move for 6 or 7 then

 

[Shueygod]

My guess is:

WCE Receive: 12, Starcevich
WCE Give: 16, 23, 37

Brisbane Receive: 16
Brisbane Give: Starcevich, 43

Freo Receive: 23, 37, 43
Freo Give: 12

Brisbane giving up 19 and getting the extra points would make more sense

 

[YeoGabbaGabba]

 

[Shueygod]

Seems to rule out a move for 6 or 7 then

Unless we use 12 to get up yeah.

[kerrazy]

How many from team dry sheets have finally converted to us wet sheeters now? Writing was on the wall that Clarke was gonna bend over.
