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.
Freo getting 19, sounds a lot like my proposed trade except WC getting 33 so maybe a future going Brisbanes way?

Something like:

Eagles trade: 16 + 23 + WCf2
Brisbane Trade: Starcevich + 19
Freo Trade: 12 + 33

Eagles get: Starcevich + 12 + 33
Brisbane get: 16 + WCf2
Freo get: 19 + 23

Don’t like it as much but if we can use 33 + 37 to move up its not too bad.

I don’t know why the AFL wants to kill the points curve so badly. You get all these great trades that benefit multiple clubs. This trade will benefit 4 clubs.

The AFLPA must love it too. Points exchanges are the ultimate trade week lubricant.
 
So basically a central trade of 12, 16 and 19 moving between the 3 clubs, with a variety of 2nds / picks / Starcevich moving around elsewhere. Don’t hate it. Think this is a whole offseason view trade for sure, not my favourite thing but could look good by the end of the draft

That is shit for Freo
 
What exactly do we get out of this? Being able to trade in McVee? We were already getting him.

Why? They get a pick for rivers and an extra pick.

Pretty sure the Freo component will be bang on, at this point.
Would you feel same if west coast did that trade, so 12 down to 19 for upgrade from 33 to 23. Is garbage. Of course you like the trade West coast make out like bandits

Based on breadcrumbs tweets I don't get why Freo are involved.

Brisbane don't need 16 or 19 or any other pick. It makes sense for a 3 club trade for them to end up with the picks in the 20s and 30s and for WC and Freo to trade for their respective wants. WC want to advance in the order, Freo want to split their pick.

E.g.

WC: Starcevich, 12, something else
Freo, 16, 19
Brisbane: 22, 23, 33, 37, 44

Next Twomey tweet will mention 20,000 dollars of Hungry Jacks to Brisbane in exchange for Youi car insurance coverage for the entire West Coast roster.
Surely a Hungry Jacks franchise is part of the machinations of this trade.
 
So far... I think this is everything confirmed...

West Coast in: 12, 33, 52 and Starcevich
West Coast out: 16, 23, (other picks unconfirmed)

Brisbane in: 16, (other picks unconfirmed)
Brisbane out: 19, 52, Starcevich

Fremantle in: 19, 23
Fremantle out: 12, 33

Definitely feels like West Coast will be giving more, but not yet disclosed... Possibly 37 on the low end and 22 on the high end.

EDIT: nevermind, Twomey has broken in down in full.
