2017 trade hypothetical thread

🥰 Love BigFooty? Join now for free.

Dont post 3 way and 4 way trades etc wont happen. Teams mostly do one trade at a time now then move to the 3rd party and trade again. Super trades are a thing of the past.
 
Assuming Brisbane were serious about putting pick 1 on the table, and assuming North are into Rayner:

Brisbane trade pick 1 to North for pick 4 and Preuss.

Brisbane get a very promising ruck (who's also a local) to take over from Stefan Martin. They also get one of Dow/Cerra/LDU.

North get Rayner, and also ease a bit of the logjam in their rucks.

I think they get Rayner at 3 anyway
 
What would it take to get Lynch and Saad to Collingwood? Would 2017 & 2018 first rounders plus Sidebottom be close?

Preuss isn't a necessity need for the Lions with Smith and McInerney and Ballenden likely to all be on our list next year
 
GWS should look at Castagna instead of Thomas. Twice the player Thomas ever was plus George has proven he can be vital in a flag winning team.
Castagna has played 2 seasons averaging 11 positions a game and less than a goal a game.Thomas 11 seasons 11 positions a game averaging 1.5 goals per game. Thomas 325 career goals Castagna 28 career goals. long long way to go George but good luck.

No chance in my opinion. Ranyer not far enough in front of the other 3 top picks to give Preuss away for nothing. which it would be in that scenario.

what are the 11 positions that Castagna and Thomas played in per game?

Not sure Gold Coast need a sidebottom type, but the value is probably right, possibly a late pick going back gc's way, but it's unlikely they'd use it...
 
So ... the trade would be in North's interests then?

Assuming they rate him.
They seem to be into stephenson if what ive been told is correct.

But so are bris. I doubt they would do your proposed trade because i dont think the top 4 is set anymore. Its more of a top 6-7 atm i think

Conole didn't mention Stephenson as a pick 1 chance when interviewed today Rayner LDU and Brayshaw are apparently all chances though

I thought the same till cotter mentioned an intrest in stephenson that i didn't believe at the time. It seems he was right regarding the intrest and given his recent performaces i can see it potentially happening.

Personally i think they are much more likely to take dow with #1. If they somehow got pick #2 in rocky compo i would put it at 99.9% that they choose stephenson.

That percentage is clearly just my opinion.

Personally I want Stephenson at pick 1 been huge on him all year best of all he's a Lions supporter so wouldn't be a flight risk

I think he is fantastic aswell. So many upsides with some slight risk at such a high pick. Him and coffield are the ones im most excited about.

Would be a very good pick for the lions even if you chose him over dow.

I love the draft period its always exciting. I wont be surprised if every phantom drafter is wrong this year. First 20 picks are going to be fun to watch i think
 
Castagna was able to play average in a system where the pressure load was shared, he'll get found out in a big way if he goes anywhere else. Anyway; the Puopolo to GWS connection has at least been floated in multiple avenues, Castagna to GWS is a fantasy creation by BigFooty.
**** this post is brilliant.
 
Yeah, Deledio was huge in the Semi Final. 4 touches to half time. 0 tackles for the game. Then massive against Richmond.

The fact that you are saying Lindsay Thomas is worth going after shows how clueless you are about football.

Poppy kicked 5 goals in his last 2 games after coming back from injury. Averages 6 tackles a game. Thomas spent most of his time injured or suspended or playing in the 2s.
That dude you were arguing with was underrating Poppy but lets not pretend he is awesome. I think he would get a game for GWS but if he does go, be prepared to get around pick 40 for him.

If Hawks want high picks they will have to give up someone good who is not about to enter their twilight.

Im not saying he is awesome. But he is the type of player they need and Im not sure how many others would be available.

And Im sure he would get a higher pick than 40.

Gibbs is 1 year younger yet the asking price is apparently 2 x 1st. If Gibbs was 1 year older does he drop away to pick 30?
