2017 trade/draft thread

The worst idea I have ever seen on this site

Nah it's an absolute masterstroke.

Nah it's an absolute masterstroke.

Yeah

What Bottom teams get: depth players a chance to make finals. Doesn't impede salary cap. From gcs point of view it could make them a top 8 side thus making more members join with them which = $$$$$

What we get: Some good draft picks

We all know gcs are near breaking point need some talent not draft picks

Deal done tomorrow or Rawlings resigns imo.

Yep, nothing will get more members for GC than signing Masten, Hill and Karpany.

Nuffy Freo fan page on FB saying Jack Martin toured Freo today and is linked in a trade for Weller..

Same source earlier claimed Tippett toured their facilities too which was false.

Trade radio. Not sure why I bother. We are going backwards next year because our best players in the finals were Priddis, Mitchell and Petrie and they are gone and we've only added Ah Che, but can't work see where improvement would come from.

They are so Vic centric is unbelievable.

They'll be surprised by the big guy with dreadlocks lining up in the middle for us next year.

Adelaide and Brisbane believe Geelong compensation for Motlop is rigged to get pick 19 to the SUNS for ABBBBBLETTTTTT.
When you think about probably on the mark .

 

[Boohemian]

Ah Chee on trade radio. Sounds like a switched on lad.

Naitanui will cover Petrie easily. Mitchell personally don’t think improves us and priddis was past his best. Natural improvement from existing young players should mean we are at least the same. Wouldn’t say going backwards. Surely we couldn’t be worse than this year.

 

[Happy Mastenator]

Highlights.

Club sold him on needing mature bodies in to help fill priddis Mitchell hole

Other clubs sniffed around but wanted to come home and fit was perfect

Sees core of list in great shape, saw first hand in Elim final.

Looking forward to being involved in our indigenous program

Thought played well enough in sanfl to play afl but didn't happen

Next step is to work with club to organize move.

Did sound really articulate and came across really well

Yes they are Vic centric and are a pain to listen to but I don’t think they are far off the mark really.
We gain Nic which obviously helps and Ah Chee who I think is a good pick up but I can’t see for the life of me us improving from 6th. I don’t believe Duggan and Sheed will be the players some think they will and the rest has not changed much. I would of gone much harder in the trade as the draft is just top up players for East Perth.
I hope to be pleasantly surprised though.

The difference though greatwhiteshark, is we should now get to see what Venables, Cole, Nelson (not the flashest but I do think he can play an important role with his attack on the ball), Mutimer et al can do with an extended run in the team. IF Naitanui is good to go then we get that extra clearance machine, which is more important than his ruck work, IMO.
I agree, don't see a marked improvement from 6th, but we shall see.

 

[Suma Magic]

Rioli will be massive for us.

Cole and Venables I want in the team for an extended period as they both have talent, Nelson I like as well.
The club however has shown that muppets like Jetta and Cripps they will continue to play at these young guys expense.
Yes we will wait and see.

 

[greatwhiteshark]

Rioli will be massive for us.

Only if he gets super fit, otherwise just an East Perth player.

He's going to be training houses down come November.

Come February he is going to be setting the JLT alight.
