Traded Brandon Starcevich - traded to West Coast as part of a 3-way trade with Brisbane and Fremantle

[Shueygod]

It's a horrible exchange for Freo. They're mental. I'm talking about Starc's value

Right, so why then call out WC fans that laughed at your suggestion when they ended up giving considerably less than your suggestion they laughed at?

They gave Brisbane almost exactly what I said. Nobody could assume Freo would come in as a 3rd party with a horrible trade.

So the West Coast fans that laughed at giving up that much for Starcevich in your initial proposal, ended up being correct given that they didn’t give that much for Starcevich?

Yet you’re calling them out because Brisbane received that much for Starcevich?

lol.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Absolutely ahead. will be great work by Brisbane. Even better if Allen's contract is smaller than expected

We’re not going to dog West Coast like that. They will get their pick 2.

 

[Pns_blister]

Finally someone who gets it. West Coast had all the power and absolutely folded

Known commodities like Starce are worth more than a speculative draft pick in a shallow pool. Most likely end up with someone like Jhye Clark with that pick.

Clark’s career highlight will be buying candy from Levi on the MCG and then watching him dob it from outside 50.

Talk about a bust.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Trade done. Time to break the news to Daisy Pearce.

A band 1 contract could be lodged but it could also be band 2.
Only the media and fans seem to think Band 1 is what's going to happen.
You can't have an agreement with another club, that is draft tampering and not worth the penalties.

If Lions submit a band 2 type contact that's what they have already agreed to with Allen to become a Lion
Same if it is band 1.
The Starcevich trade would have no bearing on the agreed contract irrespective of what Lions & Eagles on BF think

 

[txbyhull]

The hate boner in here as real. I expected better from fans of a few of these clubs tbh.

Disagree. It’s all carefully managed. We did the same with Daniher.

 

[fnerd]

There's plenty to get into WC about

This trade just isnt one of them

Haha yeah if any one should be raging on a club it’s Freo in this trade

Its ****ing insane on so many levels that im holding my breath Cal has missed ANOTHER part of it and I cant believe i need to actually argue with Freo people over it.

There is no justification to doing this trade, yet alone day 2 of the trade period

Isn’t it just that you had too much pick for the Melbourne guy and so now have something left over after the trade?

 

[Ash1337]

Freo are upto something with their pick shuffle for sure. Maybe targeting pick 6.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

We did 12 and 33 for 19 and 23 (literally less points for the higher pick) and then on top of it gave up 50 and 44 for 46. Its ****ing atrocious, yet alone doing this early.

We had too much for McVee so traded our whole hand away for no reason bar helping other teams get their trade done...

Literally how, we have nothing left bar 19. We LOST points on the trade...

Yeah on paper you seem to be down a pick in the mid 30s (if you have faith in the points system).

It it possible Twomey has missed another piece of the puzzle?

On paper, we have literally chucked in pick 33 for shits and giggles. Wallsy is a dogshit trader but this might be some of his worst work. Short of Twomey missing reasonably important, then the pick trade has cost us to move down the order...

It’s not the end of the world tbh. If we win the 3-peat I will dedicate the victory to the brave and gallant fighters of the [Fremantle football club].

Maybe blues 9 & 53 then?

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

Maybe blues 9 & 53 then?

Haha, again, how when we have nothing? WE'd have to give up a future 1st.

I'd actually burn the place to the ground if they did that

19 & 22 are 1482 in points. 9 & 52 is 1383 in points. Blues get 99pts more on a bid for Dean and likely where a bid would come in. Freo could be targeting Farrow who is meant to be like Hayden Young.

They traded 22 for Mcvee, Carlton would also get far more for 9 than that.

We dont have 22 mate, we gave 23 for McVee. We turned 12, 33, 44 and 50 into 19, McVee and 46...

It makes me vomit in my mouth a bit to type out

I see I missed a detail in the trade. In that case it could be they plan to get another player in and then ignore the draft just grabbing their NGA kids like blues are doing. 2 of their players are rated in the top 30-40.

So (and this is the same argument I'm having with others)? You dont just throw shit away for the sake of it. Brisbane clearly dont, Geelong clearly dont.

Absolutely ludicrous trade from Freo as it stands
