2019 Trade thread

[Dalions]

I am astonished, astounded, flabbergasted even angry at the industry not recognizing Cuts worth two first rounders. It's an AFL conspiracy to keep us from being successful.

On last years form you would think an early second would do it!

I had to look twice, I thought it was a post from Dylan12

We've all bought in! He convinced me.

And this years lack of opportunity pushes it back to a late second at best.

Yep, I just didn’t put that part in my post.
That is the unfortunate thing!

Whaat, you needed convincing?

Some bizarre ratings re wage and trade in there. It's like they've set a value on draft picks and slotted guys into there. They've really underrated the key defenders especially from the crows.

From that list on afl.com I'd be interested in Bailey Dale, I really like what I've seen of him.
BAILEY DALE (WESTERN BULLDOGS)

Draft picks: Early third-round pick
Value on open market:$250,000-350,000 per season

Has shown glimpses as a half-forward/wingman but injury has held him back from being elevated into the next bracket.

Working off that list and in no particular order additions I wouldn’t mind seeing happening - Zac Jones, Aaron Francis, Shia Bolton, Mason Redman, Hugh Greenwood and Bailey Dale.

And Lewy Taylor and Tom Cutler!

Who?

 

[Brett C]

I can't believe the club has not only risked a flag by not playing Cutler but also given away 2 x top 5 picks in the draft through their arrogance and inability to harness talent.

Aiden Bonar GWS would be a quality addition to our midfield. Good size mid in the Cripps mould . Has pace and strength.

They're reportedly working on a 2 year extension behind the scenes right now. That 5-goal haul last weekend has probably gained him plenty of interest from other clubs, and potentially drives his price up an extra $50k. I highly doubt he leaves tbh, we really lack natural forwards

 

[SizeMatters]

Got anything sensible to add?

Still talking smack about something that was never going to occur? gee some people get riled up quickly over a Bigfooty rumour.

I agree mate. Alex Keith has been in AA form this year.

So I wonder who the forward is who is supposed to be moving on at the end of the year? Now that Dan is McStayin?
Ballenden signed up just recently too!

Kinda just leaves Skinner, Walker and Christensen out of contract in the forward line. I expect at least one of the first two to leave.

Is the source for this the Adelaide taxi driver or other? If it's the former I'd take it with a huge grain of salt.

Ummm, what?

 

[davemc_lions]

Doesn't seem to have developed much in the Neafl. With all their injuries he should have been getting game time but hasn't

 

[scoman]

I'm off Greenwood. If we are going to make it even harder for our developing midfielders to get a game I would prefer it to be at the expense of an A grade type talent.

He wants to go home. Very badly.

 

[FFB1]

Had a couple of ACLs yeah?

 

[briztoon]

Yes. When he was still at U18’s.

Hmm I think I do remember him being labelled as a flight risk. But then again so is almost every kid that goes into state these days
