2017 trade/draft thread

[amazingjoshy]

Do not want Liam Ryan. A mate was at a WAFL final and I received snapchats showing his family who were stirring shit and ready to jump the fence and smash on with the crowd after he was fairly tackled. Can see why he wasn't drafted scouts aren't exactly stupid.

That is quite possibly the worst reason I've ever read for not wanting a player

Not to the club. They are shit scared of any controversy.

Would Freo get a 2nd or 3 rd pick for Harley Balic ?

It's not going to be a popular opinion on here but i think Wilson is better than Redden.

Way better.

 

[mick06]

I get mixed up too but is Wilson the one with the lethal boot that hits long range targets ..

Ranked 4th in the comp for average metres gained. Nice stat

Best thing about Wilson is that it would mean that if Yeo does play more midfield we'd have someone else down back that is capable of breaking a line with speed and penetration. Once yeo moved into the midfield now we get very sideways orientated.

 

[paran]

Simple answer is YES he is a genuine mid.
He is a very versatile player that can also hold down a forward or back flank or play damaging football off a wing.

He emphatically demonstrated in the second half of the TAC Cup season that he is a quality inside/outside mid that kicks goals.
This kid has so many + points of difference over the run of the mill midfield draft prospect that it's not funny.

Better than Foggarty?

 

[paran]

This........so much this..... he is a footballer's footballer and is as tough as they come that will always give you a contest.

Players who can win their own football in close in the heat of the battle and are also damaging on the outside are scarcer than than rocking horse shit.

It's the double than that really emphasises the rocking horse shit.

Wilson wants to come home.

Which one do you mean the Darcy or Lachlan variety ?

Nathan wilson wants to head back to WA from the GWS. He would be an excellent get as he is a great kick and more importantly, has pace.

He will indeed

"AFL.com.au understands the 24-year-old is likely to join Fremantle during the upcoming trade period, with the club aware of his desire to get to the Dockers.

"Nathan's management has advised the club of his interest to return to Perth and play for Fremantle," Fremantle list manager Brad Lloyd said.

"The club will be making no further comment at this stage." "

Going To Fremantle plus we have enough Half Back Flankers ...is a very good player Fremantle should be rapped to get him just depends on the price ( GWS normally have a heap of future draft picks so they might take a fringe Fremantle player and 2018 s second pick . )

Guessing though but all reports Fremantle bound

 

[darksquare]

Not interested unless it's absolute peanuts being traded back.
I swear people get him and Zac Williams confused... he's the one that has linebreaking speed/ability NOT Wilson

A 60m kick is pretty handy, though...

Not sure how they are going to snag Matera and Wilson. Would really stretch their cap.

 

[Happy Mastenator]

Would offer vardy and pick swaps for Wilson. Sell high on vardy, like when we sold high on sinclair

also, this is just so so wrong.

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

What is up with most of the recent homesick WA players wanting to head to Freo lately...

 

[DickDunn]

Looks like we're no chance to get Wilson

"Fremantle general manager of list management Brad Lloyd confirmed Wilson’s desire to return home and play for Fremantle.

“Nathan’s management has advised the club of his interest in returning to Perth and playing for Fremantle,” Lloyd said.

Crozier and Balic are going by the sounds of it ...so maybe a second and third round pick ( At Best ) there

Meh, a quote by Freo's list manager saying that the player wants to come to Freo?

I wouldn't take that as ruling us out.

True. Although Wilson grew up as a Freo supporter and has been linked to them for a while. I suppose it will come down to picks though - if we're willing to be bold and offer a second-rounder, it's hard to see how Freo could realistically top it

 

[avishka5]

this sounds great!!

If he doesn't want to play for us then so be it. Let GWS rape Freo for what he's worth.
