Be careful when bagging a player that you don't know much about. Years ago we were offered a young josh Kennedy in a 3-way trade for Shaun Burgoyne, I was insulted and irate, Burgoyne is a genuine star, who the f€£k is Kennedy?. Trade was turned down but I sure as hell know who Kennedy is now.
Port aren't the worst club to deal with in trade talks either. Collingwood & crows are a lot worse. But port won't cave in easily either. We have let good players go before for nothing (nick Stevens) on principle, but not to the club of their choice, if their suitors were unwilling to make a reasonable offer.
Ah chee is a good bloke and doesn't want to do the club over, I note he has stated he is willing to go anywhere to continue his afl career, and I note that a lot of players are now urging port to hold onto him and give him more of a run next season.
Eagles can play tough and hope to get him for nothing but Gold Coast and a few other clubs will take a serious look at him first.
BUT you owe us one as you screwed us over the Ebert trade, so think it's only fair;)
 
Rookie list

Out (retain Gorter and McInnes, and Watson/Bayok on Cat B):
1. Brophy (cat b)
2. Petrie
3. Tunbridge
4. Snadden

Would much rather retain Snadden than Gorter. He hit some good late season WAFL form doing run with roles in the midfield. Gorter is yet another HBF that we’re overstocked with.

Thoughts on offering the Lions our 2018 first round pick plus our current 2017 pick 31 for their 2017 picks 18 plus 19 and 42.

We go to the draft with 13, 18, 19, 42 and 49.

Happy to add any of Lamb, Wellingham or Masten as steak knives.:D
Apparently next year is a superdraft

Mate, not sure which rock you crawled out from under, but Rohde and Port were an absolute bunch of funts during the Ebert trade negotiation, hence coining the phrase "getting Eberted". The rest of what you said is revisionist BS, but good luck to you.
 
Because he's just as good as Josh P. Kennedy.

Must be the biggest steal in years. I wonder why Port can't see it. He should come over as a rookie. He's out of contract and not getting a game.

WCE need to stop recruiting spuds already. This year was a disaster.
 
Didn't take us long to launch the Priddis hate onto Mastens pile did it? Maybe someone wants to start a seperate thread so you can waste your time in there jerking each other about it.
Should name the thread- The Marsden Dutch Rudder mega thread!
 
Not sure where I bagged him, just stated that there's not much difference between him and a couple of mature age WAFL players who we could take with our 3rd rounder, which is true.
Of course he's willing to go anywhere to continue his career, you guys have hardly played him at all, only an insane person would want to stay.
He isnt insane his mum had him tested

This geeling getting pick 19 stinks and only explanation is they have told Geelong to use it for ablett.

Corrupt afl.
Isn't compo mainly determined by the contract offered by the new club?

19 seems like fair compo to me anyway.

Which of the players we recruited this year was a spud?

Wellingham and Redden were both first round draft picks. While Petri and Mitchell were good players - WCE were hopeless and have just wasted a year. WCE would likely be in a better position had they not recruited those dinosaurs and just developed the younger players.
