2017 Trade and FA thread

[Turbocat]

I've heard we are more than a chance for Nakia too. He's gonna be a gun. He would fit in real well up here let's just say very good friends with a few Brisbane people, don't wanna go into too much detail though sorry for being vague.

What do you see as the deal being if this was to happen?

 

[lioninthesand]

Bell is a good kid and will improve with time, just a player who is exposed in a really weak team, gone backwards / not progessed since joining and looks a bit lax at times. But still a future for the kid. Does look a little bit shy when it comes to body contact too.

Ports pick would be involved you'd think with Cockatoo + steak knives coming our way or maybe a 2nd rounder?. Was a high draft pick but hasn't exactly strung consistent games together and entering his 3rd season. Looking like a decent player but not A grader IMO has some flaws to his game.

If we ended up with 2 picks in the teens then you could just about lock in pick 1 + 2 as well.

You do realise that type of statement could be transferred to Schache ... Was a high draft pick but hasn't exactly strung consistent games together and entering his 2nd season. Looking like a decent player but not A grader IMO has some flaws to his game.

Not sure what we would get but I have no doubt it would not be what we paid..

I reckon he is worth around the pick 25 mark. IMO of course but others would say higher others lower. Not sure why you brought up Schache though.

Key position players always take longer though.
Late first round at best for Nakia

 

[lioninthesand]

Nakia is the sort of player who would be exposed in a team like ours. Add him to the list of 'also rans' that will go belly up in our system.

 

[Billy Puller]

I dunno how much Geelong you've watched but nakia is gonna be a gun. A dash of pace we desperately need

Whilst i agree to an extent.
We need to back the system in eventually.
We will get better. As will the team as a whole and if Nakia was a part of that he would grow with them. It is the mid tier of players that we need to get rid of and replace with some quality.

 

[cmt26]

Cockatoo not leaving the Cattery, pretty settled down in Geelong.

 

[Eons]

Sorry if I upset you..it was not my intent. I will leave

Don't worry about him he's a flog to everyone.

 

[dlanod]

I'm pretty sure the existence of the Brisbane Lions pisses him off, let alone other AFL clubs.

You're no chance of getting your hands on Cockatoo, he's just signed an extension. He'll be a one club player.

 

[Maboo]

Yeah and we're gonna get shafted with Schache what the **** do you want a pick 1?

Get the **** outta here.

Don't listen to him, we don't know who he is or where he came from.

Has he? From what I can find, there's an article saying he's 'set to' re-sign, but hasn't as of yet.

After speaking to him myself I'm quite confident he'll be at the club for a long time. He loves it here.

The only way he'll end up at Brisbane or any other club for that matter is if Geelong tell him to pack his bags and a more desperate need arrives in return, such as a young key forward with plenty of potential.

Joshua Schache?

Hmm first you say there is no chance, then next post your saying we are a chance? Make up your mind champ or stick to your own board.

Have this bloke called Josh Walker you might be interested in.

Plus it'd be pretty embarrassing if you name yourself after a player and he leaves, hey PattyKwasagun?

Not in the context, no I didn't.

Fortunately for me I don't need to worry.

 

[briztoon]

Not in the context, no I didn't.

Actual, yes you did.

The context of the discussion is, is there a chance Cockatoo could leave Geelong.

There was no specific mode mentioned for how Cockatoo would end up in Brisbane in the post you replied to from Billy Puller.

'More than a chance of getting Cockatoo' implies that it's coming from Cockatoo's end ... after speaking to him it simply isn't.

I then want on to say that the only way it would happen is if Geelong told him he's going to be traded for a more pressing need.

So in the context I didn't say nothing of the sort.

You blokes are starting to get a little antsy so I'll leave you be.
