Well, to be fair though, FREO's list manager isn't going to say his preference is West Coast is he? Would like him, we have a second rounder this year and Freo don't so if West Coast are keen can't see why we couldn't get it done?

Just interested if you are happy to have Freo's coaches included in your player salary cap? We are not employing anyone in Sams family to get him over here, so it is not the same as Scully's arrangement at all. FYI West Coast had already lined Sam up to coach in a couple of years anyway, it...

He's going to Hawthorn?

Same. Acres sounds exactly what we need, but I am friends with Doms mum so want us to pick him! (Not a good reason to draft a first rounder, but hey?!)

That's right mate, clubs do have long memories! We still remember Brisbane trading Dalziell to us! :p :cool:

It is more a comparison of situations, ie when a player nominates a particular club (in a two club state) and they are out of contract the receiving club usually has the upper hand. Port did in the Ebert case and we were fuming at the time but have mostly moved on from it. However when you then...

I guess what is "fair" is in the eyes of the club getting the best deal out of a trade. I cannot remember the last time West Coast screwed someone over, would just like to win one trade, just one.

So it was ok for you to screw us over because you didn't have the right pick? That makes sense. :rolleyes: Putting Ebert and Yeo on an even plain is also very misleading. Ebert was a first round pick, and played 70 odd games for West Coast. He came second in your best and fairest in 2012 and...

Rich coming from someone who supports Port! You shafted us in exactly the same way with Ebert, but it was all fair then because your club was the one winning with that trade, and you know it.

No thanks. :)

The way to recognise a silly trade is to ask yourself " would you do that if you were West Coast?" I already know your answer.

Anything I wrote here would only be a guess, so why bother? We have plenty of money with all our retirements this year. Was quite happy to pay 40 for Cripps after they tried to do the dirty on us with Brown in the same trade period!

West Coast don't shaft other clubs at the trade table (though we would love to see it occasionally!). I would be happy enough to part with pick 24 for Yeo, and we have plenty of cash to match any offer Brisbane/ Collingwood could offer him. We may get away with a lower pick if we trade someone...
