I think personally for him a change would be good, it's clear he isn't first picked for us.

From a team point of view he is contracted, and if a big forward or ruck go down, we don't have a lot to use as back up. He's also worth a packet of chips as a trade so why bother?
A packet of chips could get us a V/WA/SANFL forward or young bloke with at least a higher ceiling than Weid.
 
how did we improve on Freo's initial offer? we brought in Freo's future 2nd which is about pick 32..but we lost pick 44 to do so. So its no real upgrade at all. Especially as melbourne said pick 44 was unders for Bedford.

It wouldn't matter if we brought in prime Dean Cox, until we bring in a good forward we're just treading water. I can't for the life of me understand why we needed to see 6 months of terrible forwards dropping marks only to double down and not move heaven and earth to recruit a forward.
How is pick 32 not an upgrade over pick 44? By that logic, we should be happy with 13, as it's basically the same as pick 1.

Also, if you can let me know which elite, contested marking forward is changing clubs this year, that would be great. It's certainly not Dan 'kicked less goals than Ben Brown' McStay.
 
So he is worth 2 of our firsts and a downgrade on our second ?
I thought we got reamed ??
And I'm still worried after losing logue and lobb we will slide next year and you guys get a top 10 next year..
It could be the biggest mistake freo make since we picked up Hogan.
you'll win enough games at home to finish top 6 minimum.

Hopefully we find a way to get GC pick 7 since Geelong are beating around the bush and trading out there F2 on other deals.

We should offer 13 and F2 for pick 7
 
Could've waited an extra day or 2 days. He could've done it in the last 15 minutes and see if Freo make something better happen. Why cave so early? So we can get some 29 year old spud in Grundy?
And leaves us no time to use these picks, smart

Geelong aren't trading back, they want Clark, would have to be a far better off than that im afraid.

Look my take on Luke Jackson is this: We had not that much leverage to speak of. It sucks but it seemed clearer and clearer after the middle of the year that he was getting further and further away from signing with us.

I did mention that losing Dogga was Jesse Hogan Mk.II but on further reflection in Hulks case he had seen and experienced more in his young life personally than Dogga or probably most of us.
 
I wouldn't be trading too many of next years picks as it's (supposedly) a stronger draft. Just happy the trade is done. We were never going to win the trade initially as Jackson would be heading into his 4th year with over 50 games under his belt.
While I didn't want to lose him I didn't want him on a 7 year deal. The WA nightclubs would be rubbing there hands together with the cash he is going to throw away
 
I originally wanted us to trade up and have a crack at a top talent this year but now think it is going to cost a fortune and still won't get us high enough to nab one of those top 5 options, particularly Cadman.

On Grundy, I am happy to swap 13 for 16 and Grundy instead of pick 27 and then take pick 16 and 27 to the draft.
 
surely we're not dumb enough to give a future first away for Grundy? surely. I don't put anything past this club anymore.

Are you now just making things up and then getting angry at the thing you made up?

You're an absolute masochist.
 
There was big raps on Brayden George before he done his knee still expected to go in top 20 any one know much about him?

Absolutely no reason we should drop our first round pick back 3 spots for the privilege of helping Collingwood with their salary problems.

Although these are the doors we opened when we did the Jackson trade before Grundy. Refusing to do Lobb deal certainly worked for Freo
 
My Summary is that whenever you are the one losing the player thats worth alot, you normally in for a bad time. Given we didnt have alot of leverage to work with im feeling 6/10 with the result but acquiring grundy to me feels like compensation for the whole thing. Ill take talent and grundy has plenty of that. The coaches will find the way for it work. Thats ya job.
 
Aren't GWS looking at getting pick one to take Cadman? Means no sure we are going to go up the order too much. Bring in Grundy. Not sure if the Bruce talk is serious? And the Hunter talk has fallen gone quiet so doesn't look like happening
 
Deathriding threads always backfire. Time to fire up the Freo 2023 Bandwagon thread. Heave Ho.

100%, plus its cringe coz it will always feel like a copy of the Adelaide/Lever one. Please dont Scythe94
