List Mgmt. 2014 Draft Trade FA Megathread

[CALL ME SNAKE]

And from memory we got pick #13 from Sydney for Hall, which turned out to be Nick Dal Santo

So probably a pretty fair trade.

We obviously didnt have a crystal ball. But they got a Premiership Captain. We got an extremely good player. Win for Syd again

 

[kernelT]

Surely we wont do that deal… Steven for pick 3 I can understand…

but losing our best player and the best player in the draft - No.

 

[bird_man]

Wouldn't it be great to to a deal with WB and Demons that sees the Dogs with pick one (McCartin), Dees with pick 2 (Brayshaw) and us with pick 3 (Petracca)? As well as us ending up with a later pick (possibly 7 after the Griffen deal).

Although as much as everyone is talking up the Dees taking Brayshaw, if Petracca was available they would be mad not to take him.

 

[Bull3tblitz]

For what it's worth Brett Anderson doesn't know of saints/dees deal

He wouldn't know all the ins and outs tbqh, I feel sorry for the guy getting pestered everyday for trade news.

I would have thought that Ameet/Pelch etc would be keeping alot of this hush hush until it eventuates

 

[Fred]

I agree.

Terrible trade. Hope not true.

Few guys have text me that is what Melbourne are pushing, they have a reasonable strike rate.

It's not so bad if Steven intends leaving when his contract's up.

We give up the 2 best players in the deal. We could trade Jack for a 1st and a 2nd and keep Petracca instead...

The club will be in for a world of pain if that happens.
I dont mean supporter back lash. I mean its going to have my crazy old mum ringing up the poor girls at reception again. Shes ruthless, she will ring them up complaining every day for a month
For the sake of the office staff the club should factor in crazy old ladies before they do draft deals.

Thats a big IF my friend.
Like ive said before. Free agency has clubs jumping at shadows. I dont like it

 

[Periphery]

It's not so bad if Steven intends leaving when his contract's up.

In that case I'd prefer to just do a swap for 3+a swap of our 2nd for 12. The only way I see 1 and Steven for 2+3 working is if we get 12 as well and we rate Brayshaw very,very highly for his kicking (somehting the club has stated it wants lots of).

It would be Steven and Petracca for Brayshaw, McCartin and De Goey and that seems like a much more even deal.

Absolutely you need to plan and trade smartly in this new climate.

However, we need to be a lot smarter with our upcoming free agents.

I feel that when Armitage, Steven come up to their contract year, if we are even a tiny bit unsure if they are going to go, and we feel we'd get better compo for trading. We should pull the trigger a year early.

Yeah i agree.
But it is sad that free agency has done this to our great game. Its changed it forever IMO. Loyalty was dying slowly, but this is going to kill it off very quickly.

 

[Smoke_Me_AKipper]

I think it would more likely be Steven & 22 for picks 3 & 12

Gives us 1, 3, & 12 in the 1st 2 rounds...

 

[SK_MD_#7]

I don't think we are that stupid. We'll want more in that type of deal IMO.

 

[Rough_Edges]

People prefer to keep pick 1 or Steven ?

 

[Bull3tblitz]

People prefer to keep pick 1 or Steven ?

Pick 1 imo

 

[SK_MD_#7]

Jack Steven.

I don't really care what we do with pick 1.

Only give him up if the deal is way to hard to reject not give him up and the best midfielder in the draft for a couple of speculative picks that could be complete spuds.

 

[Smoke_Me_AKipper]

Got a link? I need to see this shit.

Just looked and couldn't find it. Was on Fox Footy channel quite a bit....

 

[bird_man]

It's not so bad if Steven intends leaving when his contract's up.

Agreed, bit of a worry he hasn't signed yet. Although you think if he left we would get equal to the Frawley compo (unless they change the rules on us).

 

[CALL ME SNAKE]

Whats wrong with keeping both. Steven and Petracca in the same team in 3 yrs time sounds ok to me.

 

[Periphery]

I think it would more likely be Steven & 22 for picks 3 & 12

Gives us 1, 3, & 12 in the 1st 2 rounds...

I guess it depends on how much we rate the difference between Petracca and Brayshaw.

No way do I see us only getting 2 and 3 in that deal so this is what I think our first 4 picks would look like in both scenarios:

1,3,12,41

vs

2,3,12,22

The difference between those is an upgrade from 41 to 22 for a downgrade from 1 to 2. If we rate Brayshaw for his kicking and the talent around 22 then maybe that is an attractive deal (assuming we think Steven is a chance to leave next year anyway).

 

[SK_MD_#7]

Boyd requests trade to the dogs.

**** off

 

[saintbill]

****!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Boyd has nominated Bulldogs.....

 

[HayesTheChamp]

Brett Anderson reckons Tom Boyd wants to go to WBD???

NOOO

 

[Highlander35]

I'd want 3 and 12 for Steven and 21.

In and out, Petracca, McCartin, Weller. Send our 4th to Sydney for Membrey, and shop around our 3rd, if no one wants it, keep it for the Eli of this year.

Of course, keeping Steven and 1 would be nicer, but if that's what we're going to do...

Edit: Boyd to Doggies ****.

 

[Barrels]

Dogs at Top 8 side if that (Boyd) happens...
