Analysis 2021 trade thread

[Simba Moyo]

Welcome Darcy

 

[briztoon]

I thought you preferred push bikes briz.

Oops, obviously my English is going to the dogs.

 

[ManeMan]

Thats a good trade for us. Give a future third, but get Fort and a pick upgrade this year. Nice.

 

[M Malice]

I assume we are going to use 41 in the draft meaning we take 3 players?

 

[Cubs2Lions]

 

[Johnny Bananas]

I am unsure if sacrificing a pick next year for an upgrade this year is the best idea, but I guess we can find other ways to make up the value of a third.

Glad to have Fort on board regardless.

14 + 41 for pick 9 ?

 

[Dalions]

I've taken the grandkids on a few bike rides, 5-6km along Enoggera creek, 26-28km Shorncliffe to Woody Point and back and along the Brisbane river from the Regatta to New farm and back along the Southside of the river from Southbank to West End 15-16km. I also now cycle to Yoga most days, about 8km there and back.

Took my girls for a ride from home, up and over the Gateway bridge a few years ago, got up one side ok, but going down the other side my younger daughter lost control and fell off and quite badly broke her arm.
We never did that again.

I really like him on the limited vision we have . Obviously looking at all the positives I could find.

It'll be nice to have a 2nd ruck who contests and competes in the actual ruck contest.

 

[Dalions]

Might need a bit more than that?

 

[M Malice]

I'd do that but don't think St Kilda would.

 

[blueiris]

Triffett at 41 is my guess for the trade of our future 3rd round next year

 

[bungalow_bill]

Might need a bit more than that?

Probably but we don't have much to work with and I'd rather we kept our 2022 1st

 

[Dalions]

Darcy is our Forte!

Agreed, could be an important part of the best 22 next season and at the very least having a dominant VFL ruck can only mean good things for our young mids.

I believe it might have been more about Collingwood wanting another pick in next year’s draft, and not this year.

If we want him, I don't think we needed to trade up for him. I have a feeling it'll be someone else entirely.

Agree with this.

I love the Gateway as it’s an easy climb, but yeah, I wouldn’t be letting a young kid freewheel down. Easily hit 50k’s+.

 

[Elixuh]

What drama? It only feels dramatic if you waste your life listening to trade radio all day and reading mindless speculation on BigFooty.

I recommend tuning out and letting the professionals do their job.

C'mon TBD, admit it. You've never felt more alive.

Gees I hope not. Would be available for free in the rookie if we want him is my guess.

 

[spotthedog1]

Current picks: 14, 18, 41, 54, 60, 76, 90
2022: R3 out.

So, can we package 54 (220 pts), 60 (146 pts), 76 (0 pts) for a FY22 pick? On points, they are pick ~44. Probably looking at a mid-late 2022 R3.

Also depends whether we like Triffett as an academy player. May prefer to trade 41, 54 out for a 2022 late 2nd and keep 60 to match points.

Of course, we may also do all of this on draft night, depending who is available at pick41.

 

[mattsmob]

Yeah unfortunately it might be bad news for Triffet if we're only taking 3 draftees this year.

 

[briztoon]

We still have 54.

But moving from 9 to 14 and getting 41 and 54 is bit steep.
