2017 trade/draft thread

[Dark Sharks]

The real question is how is how do we get the absolute most out of Stratton and McGovern in the backline next year.

 

[Farang83150]

Don't need Motlop.

 

[eagles_4_life]

Gaff and Schofield to Geelong.
Masten to Gold Coast.
We sign Motlop as a free agent.

For Gaff, Schofield and Masten we get Menagola plus the end of 1st round FA pick Cats get for Motlop plus Cats pick 34.

If need to offer to pay some of Gaffs salary for one season to help with the Cats cap space.

Cats get Gaff, Ablett and Schofield and still have pick 20 for D Smith.

Suns get Masten lose a 33 year old Ablett.

We then hit the draft with picks 13 or 15, pick 21, 30, 34, 48.

Um no

Can we get Ellis-Yollman and do you think he could be the Hbf we need

 

[tigger_ferret]

Retaining Gaff may not be an option. Its not like he's not getting picked, we arent playing finals or not paying him enough.

If he elects to move its a likestyle choice on where he wants to live.

I thought Gaff was RFA next year so we match any offer

 

[Obeanie1]

Um no

Quality response.

Care to elaborate or are you restricted to only words with two letters?

If a player wants out you dont match the offer to keep them you match it to force a trade negotiation and better deal.

Aka Dangerfield. The player still moves.

 

[Yamumluvsbigcox]

Hawks: Billy Hartung and Stratton
WCE: Gaff and 48

Thoughts?

ha ha troll !

how about schofield and masten for Tom Mitchell !

These obviously change depending on where we and the Cats end up finishing.

21 and 34 for gaff is rubbish especially since we suck at drafting in the second round .
Then we get a front runner in motlop to boot who is a free agent

Gaff masten and Schofield for 21 and 34 and menagola WTF

That's easy - Hartung at their feet playing HBF (coz we need another HBF)

Still the extra cash next year allows us access to better players / draft picks, next year.

You keep insisting we have to spend all our cap space on guys like Rockliff this year, which simply isn't true.

If you rate Rockliff, then fair enough, i understand spending the money now, but I'm not sure that you do.

More like Menagola + 21 for Gaff.

34 for Schofield + Masten.

The question is what is Managola worth on his own? Early 2nd / late 1st?

He certainly is the type of mid we do not have and we need. Played a good final last night. So what is he worth?

I don't like being misquoted so please don't. Who said anything about spending all our cap space on Rockliff or players like him?

All our cap space is $2+ million dollars which is a stupid suggestion and one I certainly did not make.

What I am saying is we should invest some of that cap space now on a FA or trade, sure front end a couple of contracts now and then have another crack next year.

Saving everything for next year is not workable IMO as we would then have close to $3 million to spend and not many options.

Look at history, how many top line players have come back to WA that demand top dollars?

Who do we spend $3m on next year?

I don't think menagola is worth that much . Maybe a pick about 30 .
He had a good game last night but terrible last week .
We give up Quality In gaff for 21 which doesn't garrantee us a good player and menagola .
I think we could do much better in a trade with those players .
We also shouldn't be going for motlop at all especially with big cash that would get them an end of 1st rounder

Draft

Unless, someone like Hogan with A grade talent is available

You're giving up way more than you should for not much back as well as making Geelong someone also in the finals alot stronger. It just doesn't make sense.

You obviously don't rate gaff if you're giving him up for pick 15 needs to be minimum top 8 pick or why bother

 

[Godfather32]

The real question is how is how do we get the absolute most out of Stratton and McGovern in the backline next year.

Well we also have to consider whether we play Hartung in the forward pocket or on the half back flank

 

[Farang83150]

Where would we play Hoges?
JD's coming into his own and killing it so don't the want to move him on.

 

[Godfather32]

If we're trading Gaff it needs to be part of a deal to get an A-grade mid or a top 10 pick back, otherwise keep him.

 

[Miasi]

Draft

Rumour is that hogan hates the eagles and if he comes home will go to the dockers

 

[bl4ke]

Hogan ain't even that good

 

[Godfather32]

Good

 

[Yamumluvsbigcox]

Hogan ain't even that good

over rated for sure

 

[matt_bas]

Matera or Fasolo ? I'd pick Matera.

No way!!!! Matera is a spud. Fasolo would dominate in our forward line.
