2017 trade hypothetical thread

[JRyan23]

Hutchy reckons GFC can get GAJ for nothing.. lol

That i doubt.

Little bit of a word that KK is sick of losing and wants to be closer to home.. and his twin....

Dont have the currency IMO but getting KK and GAJ would be great.. however highly unlikely as we just dont have the parts to give to get it done.

Go Catters

Well that KK thing is completely wrong, his whole family has moved to GC, if anything JK would be moving

I think Brisbane should do the following trade at the end of the season:

Pick 19 for Kurt Tippett + pick 42

If they want Brisbane to take his wage , id say that is too much. Do Brisbane need talls?

If we took trade and dollars out of it..which club would fit Tippet the best? Melb?

It may be wrong or it may be a family moving to lend support to a family member. Why didn't they move to Geelong? Perhaps they will all unite on the Gold Coast? It would not surprise anyone if JK and KK were united at some stage.. and it certainly would be easier for GoldCoast to supply the picks required to get the deal done..as long as he would wants to go up there. Kade - 19 wins from 67 games , Jake - 22 wins from 32 games... Id guess if Jake was not getting games he would be more likely move , he was slower to get them at the start but he seems to be in our best 22 now.

From who's perspective?

Not Melbourne. Brisbane need a mature key forward to help Hipwood and Ballenden (next year). Carlton have no competent forwards currently. Collingwood's forward line is trash. Would be useful to Essendon for a couple of years. Geelong maybe. Richmond also maybe. I'd say one of those 6 sides.

You need a mature key forward for a couple of years until Hipwood's 22-23.

I agree, however I am not and have never been a fan of Tippett. I just had a look at the OOC players in 2017 (according to footywire) and I would rather Levi Casboult (27 years old RFA), Ryan Schoenmakers (26 RFA), Justin Westhoff (30 UFA) or Jack Redpath (26) in front of a 30 year old Kurt Tippett if the club decided they wanted to go down that path.

Collingwood get: Harley Balic
Fremantle get: Tom Langdon

Even though Tippett is better than all of them by a fair margin?

I disagree with your premise that Tippett is better by a fair margin. I don't watch a heap of games that don't involve the Lions but on my viewing Tippett is a C+ level footballer at best. I would have the others that I named in the C to B- class. If I had to pick 1 I would probably go for Casboult, he can really clunk a mark and create a contest if he doesn't.

Agree at present. But in form and at his peak Tippett was a class above - probably AA level. The Tippett running around now is a pale shadow of himself. Concussion and multiple injury issues makes me doubt Tippett is worth the punt.

I too would pick Casboult out of that bunch...but I'd prefer not to choose at all.

I could see Syd virtually give away Tippett as a salary dumping exercise like the Pies did with Cloke. You'd hope Tippett has more in the tank than Cloke - but that's all it'd be - hope.

Christ that's an absolutely shocking assessment. You have seriously underrated Tippett.

At is best I agree, but I am with BRWB s thoughts above in his assessment of the current version of Tippett. I think he's cooked but I could be wrong, it has happened before.

Underrated? It's common knowledge that Tippett is being overpaid a shitload, in what way is he underrated? He's never been consistent at an Elite player. You're overrating Tippett.

Id have thought there would be others more in need but perhaps not ..I'm not sure to be honest what Brisbane's approach will be. Geelong probably has a spot but not the picks or the dollars as I think they have their eyes looking elsewhere. imo , Melb would love him atm , but once they have no injuries who knows... the thing is who would really be desperate for him. I think if Collingwood are going down that path they would throw dollars at Reid as a FA. Would he suit Ess? Perhaps you would know that better than I. Rich.. not a bad fit.
I think its been a while since he has shown what he can really do , my guess is he will be on quite a bit less next contract.

Overpaid does not mean overrated. Tippett is so scrutinised he's become underrated. He's a very, very good player to have in your team.

He would down to the ground but I doubt we trade for him. I'd sooner have Mitch McGovern. If he's chasing a flag, Geelong's the best bet.

He would suit you at Ess? As usual its not always who you would prefer, but who you can get. Is McGovern gettable?
I have heard no interest on Tippett at all for Geelong. And considering who we have traded in I doubt we look at him. Too much cost and we have not got picks anyway.. we are looking at other players.

 

[blueiris]

Pick 19 for Kurt Tippett + pick 42

No chance of the Lions giving up pick 19 for Tippett Collingwoods third round pick would get it done if in fact the Lions were interested Sydney would be desperate to get him off their books would allow them to keep Jones and Reid

We get an immediate upgrade on Hooker, who can move to defence and play that intercept role and save Daniher from rucking. I'd also say that I believe McGovern is achievable.

I disagree. His output isn't close to matching his salary. Of course we're going to compare him to others on that money. He's easily the worst player to be paid over 800k. At least Boyd had potential. Tippett this years played 5 games, kicked 3 goals, averaging 8 disposals and 13 hitouts. In what world is that "underrated".

There are many players having underwhelming seasons. It is a common trait for players to have a bad patch of form.

He's 30 and not playing good football, what part makes him "underrated"? That word gets thrown around too much, especially when Tippets overrated if anything and it's public knowledge how overpaid he is.

 

[Vooligan]

Apparently just waiting till the new salaries come through to resign him. Tippett is likely to be moved on anyway and anything like a late round 2-3 would be more than reasonable

Tippett's trade value is probably worth roughly the same as what Sydney gave Adelaide for him.

 

[Orange Agent]

The only way a club takes Tippett is the Swans still paying him a chunk of his current contract to play somewhere else.
