2017 Trade and FA thread

[Tassie4ever]

Which is the better pun; Lever leaving or McStay staying?

For whom the Bell tolls.

Damien Barrett apparently saying we are linked with Matt Lobbe

Isn't he the bad Lobbe?

 

[Eons]

Isn't he the bad Lobbe?

Would be first ruck if it wasn't for Ryder. He's 28 and a nice fit for a few years until O-Mac and Archie are ready.

 

[jackess]

I'm guessing Barrett is working on the incorrect assumption that Martin wants out when he made up this rumour.

Nah he is down the pecking order, can't get a game. Wallace saying we need a ruck badly, and we only have Smith and Eagles as backup. I sent them a tweet pointing out O-Mac, and not willing to do research before commenting on Lions, but they didn't read it out.

They both didn't recognize that we have the Big O on the list. Their premise was we only had two genuine ruckmen (Martin & Archie) and Matty Eagles (which they intimated was nothing more than a realty show winner).

Ah. Yep. Very ignorant missing out on our best player in the 2s.

Problem is, it's Carlton - a VFL superpower - and GWS - the AFL's lovechild. Investigation is never going to happen. That said, there must be something ridiculously dodgy going on with SOS and GWS. You don't get that many players opting for one club without a reason.

AFL House really irritates me. The double-standards and all that are just ludicrous. Ban Sydney from trading without actually having done a single thing against the spirit or letter of the law, but let Carlton have half of the GWS concessions for pennies on the dollar, and no word at all.

To be fair they delisted half of them this year

True. It's as if they were bad decisions to get them or something.

Talk about making the same mistake twice. Bloody sos

Delisted 3 out of 9... And they're getting another 2 this year. They still got most players pretty cheap and a few of them are going to be quite good.

Your right, I had Gorringe as one of theirs but he was gc my bad.

My mate had the theory.........the more u ask the more likelyhood of success. It worked.

So apparently we want to trade in 3-5 midfielders over the next 2 trades. Anyone know who is coming out of contract next year?

That was trade and draft in 3-5 midfielders over the next 2 years. It would be a combination of both.

Ugh when are we going to see some light at the end of the tunnel when these kids we’re drafting bulk up grow up and we don’t face the start of a season with a few 80 point plus losses. Can’t wait for this team start dishing out a few floggings to teams like Richmond, port, Geelong, Collingwood and every other team. Feels like an endless cycle of draft picks. It’s almost like an addiction to draft picks for our list recruiting team.

Our picks over the last 3-4 years have been really good and are making up the bulk of the team already.

Some of our trades on the other hand. ...

 

[Flossie32]

Love to see a surprise trade in where everyone is amazed we can get such a great quality player . Or someone with a magic wand or talent stick gives Tom Bell, Roman Bewick and other list cloggers a good whack with it and boom they are all Australians.

 

[adsla69k]

What are you doing with your Pick 1. I'm hearing Brisbane are open to offers. What players do you want in the draft? Is a Deal with our Pick 11 too far back to be your first pick?

 

[Schulzenfest]

Surely you blokes don't really want Lobbe, do you?

If there's a half-eaten sandwich lying around the club kitchen somewhere, hold onto it for trade bait.

Yes.

It's not to far back if you include pick 3 as well.
