My only hope is that Barrett is just acting as a conduit for Carlton and Essendon to leak the information they want in the media.

if we do anything close to this ... i am not one to bother with emailing the club ... but this is fkg ridiculous.
Yeah not sure I could bring myself to watch football next year if that's how the trade went down.

It is a Barrett article, mind you.

I guess we should just sit back & wait & give the club a chance to at least see through this trade period.
Maybe Daniher is 100% ready to start pre season training on day one & all is well with him. We just don't know but even so, it's better to just give Essendon pick 9, 25 & whatever we get for Jones but keep Papley.
Again I am thinking that the numbers just don't add up & we must be chasing someone else of significance if we are looking for pick 9 in a deal with Paps.
On top of that we would just have too much cap space if we lose Papley & Jones on top of the Smith, Macca, Jack & Grundy retirements.
That's 6 players out that would have been on an average of 350-400K each, so that's at least $2M freed up in the cap.

A Cutler or Taylor won't cost more than 250K each. Something else must be in the works IMO.

So Barrett now blurting that it will be a 3 way with Carlton, Essendon & Swans.
Carlton give pick 9 for Paps with something significant coming back (pick 25 to use on Martin) to Carlton with Papley.
Essendon get pick 5 & 9 from Swans.
Swans get an injured Daniher who has played 11 games in 2 years & lose Papley & pick 5.

So basically we get Daniher for pick 5, 25 & Papley.
If there are serious question marks on Daniher's body going forward & any deal goes down like that, then it's time to question my loyalty to this team.

At this point I am backing our knowledge that Barrett is an idiot, just easing the pain on his mate Lloyd sitting beside him in the idiot booth.
This makes me sick! Seriously ruined my day already. So angry right now
 
Daniher will nominate us in next 24
Hope not, puts pressure on us to do the deal and takes away any chance we had of getting overs for Papley, that will now be unders. This could derail the club for years or even send us into the dreaded doom loop!
 
Whoa, seen the latest deal being suggested on AFL website, just the most terrible deal for us to pick up a broken player.

Come on Swans, this is nuts territory, would go down as the worse deal of the AFL era. We surely can't be looking to do the trade suggested.

Get a grip Swans!
Wow! If we do that trade we are a basket case of a club. Might as well fold now.

Yesterday Sam McClure thought Daniher was worth a pick around the 10 mark and he is biased towards the Melbourne clubs.
 
When are we ever going to come out looking like we won a trade! ******* bulls**t
To be fair, it's a Damien Barrett article.

Other journalists have disseminated next to no actual news on Daniher in the last 24 hours, so hopefully it is just rubbish speculation. I'd be gutted if that was the trade, but I'm staying calm until we receive more information.

Has the potential in the fullness of time to go down as the worse trade in AFL history. Never before has so much been given for what could turn out so little.

The guy hardly played in two seasons, he 26 next season, doesn't fit an immediate positional need and we're selling the farm for him!

Hello Swans, thought about bolstering the struggling midfield?? Losing faith in the current management, losing faith quickly :-(
 
About to jump on a plane to Los Angeles so hoping I'm not going to be disappointed on the other side. Glad Damien Barrett isn't our list manager. Terrible trade. Hope there's little truth to it.
 
Basically we are going to pay way overs for Daniher

And get way unders for Papley.

If it is close to the truth, it will confirm all my suspicions about Harley.

Trade week doesn’t start until next Monday, so are you traveling by paper plane propelled by elastic band?
 
Look, if Sydney get Daniher for a reasonable trade i'll be fine with it. I'm not sure he fills a need and would prefer someone in the middle but whatever. Picks 5 and 9 and lose Papley is ****ing ridiculous. I'll be extremely disappointed if that trade gets done, despite the significantly low percentage chance it does (i hope).
