If it helps Freo get McVee it’s probably a win for WA football but that just depends on whether you’re a die hard Freo hater or a fan of WA as a whole
 
Clarke tipped his hand when he said ideally they would trade pick 16 and that “at this stage it will stay with us”.

I genuinely thought 16 was an ambit claim to make 23 more palatable for West Coast but I think Ambrogio smelled blood in the water.

Clubs that want to be relevant just make shit happen. Lions traded a whole suite of early to mid first rounders for players years ago. Look how that turned out. You need to be active and not just rely on the draft to build a list. Otherwise you fall behind in the relevance ladder which makes it much harder to attract FAs later.
 
The only mutually beneficial trade I can possibly see considering Freo are involved and Bris get 16 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

Of course Eagles could have also just been bent over.

This is an excellent scenario. All round everyone should be happy and walk away winners. Well thought out trade Shueygod .
 
Not to start anything but this trade highlights an issue with the competition. WCE from 18th has to stump a first rounder to go to the premieres or lose value from their FA... who is going to the premieres.
