    Traded Josh Dunkley - [Traded with F3 (Melb), F3 to Brisbane for #21, F1, F2, F4 (Geel)]

    Well in a way you sort of can. There's always an opportunity cost with these things. Let's not pretend it wouldn't be shit for us to not get Dunkley. It would, just less so

    Traded Josh Dunkley - [Traded with F3 (Melb), F3 to Brisbane for #21, F1, F2, F4 (Geel)]

    Why is this suddenly an issue now when it's been the case for so long already? Is it because it's not a melb team benefitting and interstate team losing? Maybe not but it sure feels like it. Moot point anyway, deal will get done

    Isn't Henry contracted for another year? He either goes to Geelong or stays another year at collingwood

    Traded Josh Dunkley - [Traded with F3 (Melb), F3 to Brisbane for #21, F1, F2, F4 (Geel)]

    We're not going to lose him. A deal will be done. You don't get a player of that level of talent nominate you and then not make it work and Brisbane have a pretty lengthy history now of getting these deals done over the past 5 or so years. I do think however that people need to realise that...

    Traded Josh Dunkley - [Traded with F3 (Melb), F3 to Brisbane for #21, F1, F2, F4 (Geel)]

    Is it? I mean it really depends on what the final deal is rather than hypotheticals or whispers being thrown out there but let's say it's in the ballpark I mean if you take the average of hopper and Taranto it's pretty much on par. I guess the question is how much is the 4th most valuable mid...

    Traded Callum Ah Chee [traded to Brisbane for future 2nd and future 4th round picks]

    Only a few days and already you're softening from 15 only with no room to negotiate to now one of 15 or 19. Next minute you'll be saying one of 15/19 and other pick swaps. Moving the goalposts early i see

    Traded Callum Ah Chee [traded to Brisbane for future 2nd and future 4th round picks]

    Of course it doesn't, however in any such system past trades tend to give an outline of how players are actually valued by list managers around the league. There will always be differences but you can see pretty clear trends from looking at past player trades from which you can get an idea of...

    huh? Not sure what your angle is here? Perhaps you've completely misread my post?

    Traded Callum Ah Chee [traded to Brisbane for future 2nd and future 4th round picks]

    He said if they did trade him, not if they wanted to trade him. Most sides who have players leave don't want to trade them in an ideal world. There are exceptions but the majority would like to retain their players. We will pay what he's worth, noone is out to screw anyone else over, these...

    Traded Callum Ah Chee [traded to Brisbane for future 2nd and future 4th round picks]

    You were responding to my initial post which was discussing his worth, so its a bit disingenuous on your behalf to say you weren't commenting on his worth even if it was indirectly. I'm actually offering a reasonably comparable example. i'm yet to see one come back that from anyone that shows...

    Traded Callum Ah Chee [traded to Brisbane for future 2nd and future 4th round picks]

    People keep saying this like its some sort of trumping argument when really its not. Even if the 4 years is accurate, what exactly constitutes "good coin"? 300K? 400K? And realistically how much more would it be than GC are offering? its not like its going to be 100K more per season or...

    Traded Callum Ah Chee [traded to Brisbane for future 2nd and future 4th round picks]

    Can't see how an uncontracted Ah Chee would be worth more than Adam Saad and he was traded for a future second. Would think something like Scrimshaw from last year would be more around the mark. End of second early third probably would probably be the mark. In no world is he worth 3 picks...

    You're aware that the original posts in this thread are from 2016 yeah?

    Club Focus Brisbane Lions 2020 - Cockatoo, Coleman, Sharp, Smith

    Another wingman would be handy and another inside/outside mid or HBF who can run would be the list for me. Its an interesting list demographic actually. We're a pretty experienced and older team but still a very young squad. We probably lose some more age and experience with Hodge and...

    Recommitted Tom Liberatore [re-signed] and Mitch Wallis [re-signed]

    End of first round. Not classified quite the same I very much doubt that Brisbane would look to trade if the dogs decided to match, we'll need our capital elsewhere. Then I guess it's a choice for Wallis to stay at the dogs or enter the draft if he really wanted to leave. If its all about...

    Traded Lachie Neale [traded with #30 to Brisbane for #6, #19 and #55]

    How exactly can you overpay in a trade? Overpaying implies that there is a set price and you pay more than that price. A trade is where two parties agree to swap one item for another. Trades are always driven by the market, of the two trading parties didn't agree on the value then the trade...

    Of you're not a free agent or a top player and remain uncontacted at this stage of the year you're probably looking at no more than a 5th or a very late 4th round pick at best

    Yeah wouldnt be a massive amount tbh. Upgrade our pick 40 to 29?

    Traded Lachie Neale [traded with #30 to Brisbane for #6, #19 and #55]

    Mostly. There's always a few in every fanbase. To be fair we've copped a lot of crap over the last decade so it's hardly unexpected some will feel the need to go all in

    Traded Josh Schache [traded to Bulldogs]

    my favourite part of that article is where she says Brisbane didnt do enough in his first year for him considering that a) we've bent over backwards for him in both years and b) brisbane's coach at the time was Leppa. Is she saying leppa didn't do enough to keep him at the club?

    Free Agency Tom Rockliff [signed with Port Adelaide]

    I'm not sure how his wage bill is relevant. When you're the youngest squad in the competition with a real lack of stars in the side I highly doubt anyone would be able to pay him more than we currently could. Now the fact that we don't want to pay him that much is another thing, but capacity...

    He's probably taking all his washing back home to get done over the next 8 weeks ready for next year.

    Well that feels better, and a little strange.

    Traded Josh Schache [traded to Bulldogs]

    I appreciate that you've taken the time to actually provide something, its appreciated and mildly refreshing. I have a different point of view on a few of the items though. The first on I tend to think the other way. Given an average players career is only 4 years with low of 1-2 (i'm...

    Traded Josh Schache [traded to Bulldogs]

    Absolutely the system would stand up in a court case. Its almost impossible to fathom how people come to the conclusion that it wouldn't somehow. Explain to me under what ruling or precedent would the AFL not be able to defend itself against something like this and please don't throw out this...

    Traded Brisbane have traded picks 2, 31, 51 and 60 to GWS for picks 3 & 16

    Jesus can this absolute dribble be taken somewhere relevant. Absolute joke that people still spit out this shit over and over again. As for the trade big fan of it personally. Interesting for gws that two of those picks we sent sent them seem to be traded picks from last year so possibly...
