2 picks and a player? Sign me up!

I'm sure Carlton will hate it, but it seems like that's the best offer they'll get. So it just becomes a debate for them about how much they want to hold a player who doesn't want to be there.

Thats what i would offer but it may be less than geelong offer and thats fine.

we are bidding against carlton, geelong and curnow it seems so unless our offer is substantially better than geelongs i suspect curnow himself wont take it

and thats fine by me. Theres a lot of desperate people on this site.

I thought the same until I saw this from a mate:

Will Hayward:
2024 Grand Final - 1 Goal and a total of 6 disposals at 50% efficiency.

2022 Grand Final - 1 Goal, 1 tackle and 11 disposals.

Yes it’s terrible that the high half forward gets few possession. Remind how buddy went ?

 

[Membling]

It's conjecture.

We can only hope cause getting rid of experience and depth prior to a premiership tilt in addition to picks and lose flexibility is a choice.

Eggs in one basket moment

These academy players must be absoloutely ****ing unbelievable if they are just going to waltz into the best 23 and replace 350 plus games of experience.

Mate! Come on. They will shit it in. Be just like the second coming of James Heath.

Swans go all-in: Two stars AND two top picks set to unlock Curnow mega-trade

2 players and 2 first rounders
That's more than we should have paid.

I hope the deal involves 3 of the 4 bargaining chips with Hayward the ace up the sleeve in place of the future F1. If Carlton get greedy.

2 + 2 is overpaying imo.

 

[Punts]

Give them Roberts and tell Lloyd to retire if they want some cash back

Agreed, at least hold it in the back pocket until last few hours of trade period.

I reckon Blues want rid of him too, this is where the Poker starts. Let’s see how we go.

Did Cox postpone his American trip?

I hear he's changed plans and is heading to Vegas instead. He's on a roll!!

 

[Troystenvic]

We are potentially giving up 2 of our best 22.

They aren't in the best 22 we need to win a flag, they've had their chances and choked.

I think Cox is on the money, too many have been complacent and just looked disinterested at times.

Charlie looked good when Blues were up and about. We have an arguable better midfield for delivery.

McDonald will hopefully have a break out year and with Paps and others floating in the forward line we look way more dangerous and flexible.

It's a tough business and that's why they get paid the big bucks

 

[bedford]

Sucks to lose Hayward but hoping Dattoli with an injury free pre-season can step up and take his place.

Completely different player

 

[bedford]

Sad to see Will go, does a lot off the ball. Ironic that his best ever patch of form was during contract renewal.

Doesn't do anything on the ball

 

[bedford]

I don’t need more players to pull my hair out

I don't need so many posts

 

[FreeAgent1]

4 for 1 is a lot……

And they traded 2026 2nd away so we ain’t getting it back

 

[SSwans2011]

Completely different player

But that's completely fine, in any case. People on here are too determined that we need to replace one player with another with similar attributes. It's also completely fine to replace one forward with certain strengths with another forward with different strengths – it's how the forwards work as a collective that's important.

It's not like Heeney going into the midfield was a like-for-like swap of any of our midfielders, yet he's comfortably our best midfielder now. Granted, he's also our best forward.

 

[WillHayward]

I think it's happening.
Curnow. We should get 5 good seasons out of him

 

[KingV23]

I heard they will be changing their company name to Bloozy

 

[The King!]

I would like to hear some feedback from The King! on today’s proceedings.

Not enough sex scenes

Wait til Friday evening

I love Curnow as a player but this is Crazy Vossy territory, the deal we are giving them is ridiculous and has the potential to set us back many years

Didn’t 10 years of Buddy with nothing to show for it teach the club anything?

Nothing to show? Seriously?

 

[dosser]

Nothing to show? Seriously?

Apart from all the great times, of course.

Any premierships?

I’d rather have had no name forward and trophies

 

[dosser]

Wait... you know his address???

 

[caesar88]

Apart from all the great times, of course.

To be fair, if we were after great times, we should've just approached John Daly about a code switch.
