2017 trade/draft thread

[AsterixTheGaul]

Our first is pick 6. Hahah. Okay. I need to go back to my board.

has Eddie delegated responsibility?

 

[chaddy22]

Will be sad seeing another team take him in the draft

If we can trade masten for a late second or early third round pick it would be a definite upgrade can get the ball has speed and can kick a goal.

Why would anyone do that and not just take Kelly themselves?

Surely we must be interested too. Freo can't afford everyone

Freo are interested in everyone always.

 

[flamingEMBERS]

Replacing Masten with Kelly would be a great improvement to our team from the few times I've watched him on TV.

 

[swannies]

While we re-rookie Tunbridge, McInnes and Petrie

Not if I'm the football manager, remember Godfather32.

Was the Birchall rumour maybe as a coach?

It's the only way I could possibly accept that outcome of Birchall to the eagles Embers.....

May be a blessing like when X came along. Who knows though. One thing for sure is that this transfer period will be interesting.

For the WAFL watchers out there, where has Tim Kelly's improvement come from? I don't recall hearing anything at all about him before this season. Were some on here calling for us to draft him last year like Banfield and Ryan? Or has he really come from the clouds?

 

[Dark Sharks]

Stop talking about Tim Kelly, we're getting another third tall defender FFS. Can never have too many.

Just like spp I think his kicking was questioned but not a problem from what I have seen.Has three things I like speed,gets the ball and kicks a goal.His kicking has to be better then masten who is a athlete and not a footballer.

Mackenzie in talks with Eagles wants a two year deal , Eagles expected to only offer a deal for 2018 on significantly reduced terms . Good to see him stay unless a club takes him as a free agent maybe .
Tunbridge not expected to be offered another contract .
Ruckman Jonathan Giles battling a degenerative knee probem and the Eagles will need to negotiate an exit for his contract for next season .

The West .

 

[ArdentEagle]

Its a quote from another Big Footy thread........so no.

Trading Darling would be stupid, Kennedy is 30 next year.

If Simpson cant get the best out of Darling well he can just f#@^* off back Victoria and coach Norths.

Ahhhh...So you're Kim Hagdorn?

 

[ArdentEagle]

Then we'll trade gaff for acres and the saints first.
We'll secure rockliff via free agency.
We'll trade karpany and next years second rounder for gov jnr.
We'll trade our 2 of our first round picks for josh kelly.
We'll trade masten, our final first round pick and next years first round pick for aaron hall, david swallow,pick 23 and pick 25. We'll then draft Naughton and Allen in the draft.

And then i'll wake up and the fantasy will be over.

FB Hurn Barrass Sheppard
HB Yeo Mcgovern Duggan
C Acres Sheed Kelly
HF Hall Mcgovern Jetta
FF Fasolo Kennedy Cripps
R Nicnat Shuey Rockliff
I Redden Swallow Venables Vardy

Then I get to root Margot Robbie...Is that how this works?
I love a good dream too

He's basically what we want Venables to become. I would be tempted to offer Gold Coast our first pick for two second rounders. Throw in Masten make it 3. Get Kelly, Ryan and offer a second rounder and maybe Lycett for MMcgovern. Still leaves us with a second and a third rounder pick up best available and rookie a young ruckman

 

[Dark Sharks]

Kelly would instantly be in our best 22 and have an impact. Hall would as well.

Possibly that HFF link up position that Cripps plays.

Both add speed, skill and something different to a forward line which is lacking a spark.

 

[the early bird]

Man it's gonna suck when freo get hogan, both mcgoverns and Wilson going by their board

MMcgovern just needs to be offered a contract that Adelaide don't care to match.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

He's not a free agent. Adelaide don't have to match a contract. They have to agree to a trade.

Sorry, thought he was in the restricted category for some reason.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

You might have been getting confused with Jeremy who's a free agent next year.

 

[DickDunn]

Alright, which one of you trolls bumped the LeCras re-signing Facebook status from 2013?

 

[WCEbrody]

Still not opposed to Rockliff depending on how much coin we're paying him.

Inside bull & a massive campaigner from all reports,something we're desperately lacking.

 

[ArdentEagle]

Anyone else get the feeling Tim Kelly will cost more than people think?
To secure him, I think we might need to go earlier than expected...2nd round somewhere.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Hawk used their first pick on him.
