List Mgmt. 2024 List Management thread - Trade Targets Part 2

[Johnny Dalmas]

Personally I think it would be great if both Pickett and Bolton want to come to us.

Both Melbourne and Richmond will want two picks. We simply dig our heels in and the first one to blink gets 9. The second one then gets one 1st rounder based on the thought that the "other guy" was only worth one and so "your guy" is only worth one too.

Seriously, neither Richmond nor Melbourne are going to get a top 10 pick from anyone other than us.

They may want more, but a top ten pick will still be a top ten pick.

Its more than either was drafted at. And both have some miles on the clock.

I don't know wtf he's playing at now, like, Bolton is clearly getting to Freo

That was from a month ago. Just saying he ran the same commentary for Bolton (no idea how it would get done, deal complicated etc) and it changed pretty quickly

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

Snuffaluphagus and some others said here yesterday that Switkowski was on $600k.

On what planet would Shai Bolton and Sam Switkowski have the same salary?

To be clear, I was spitballing approx salary sorry but yeah, Vlahos has bo idea. Bolton is on over a mill

 

[wakojako]

I read pick 10 and 27. That's ridiculous. Be accountable to your own supporters ridiculous trade offers please.

Why don't you go away when I take my schizo meds

Ahh, yeah OK. I was very confused

 

[Bastyy]

Rhino on Bolton a month ago. Gone from essentially "no guarantee, no idea how it would look" to "shai bolton is the priority for Freo" in one month. So surely by the time trade period rolls around we would have figured out a way to get Pickett through too.

Probably has a bit to do with Richmond's openness to the idea. They understand they need a reset now and want to milk us for what they can get

Melbourne are trying to put out all the fires going on right now, doubt they'll budge on being open to trading Pickett (or Petracca) until they can figure out how to sell the club falling apart to it's supporters

 

[danster168]

Why don't you entertain us. What can Fremantle offer thats fair

10, 27 and F1.

That is overs for a contracted player. We will see what happens at trade time. I wish you weren't invited here as you have no grounding in reality.

Pickett being worth more than Trac is madness. There is not one team in the league who would take Pickett over Trac. I want Pickett, but if you gave me the opportunity to sing one or the other at the same price I would take Trac every day and twice on Sundays.

 

[CaseySibosadoHOF]

Does the first round picks part at the end suggest that the difficulty in doing both deals revolves more around getting the right assets than fitting the contracts in?

 

[s_wd6]

The idea of going from Walters/Emmett at the start of this year to Bolton/Pickett at the start of next year is insane. I'm going to be so upset it we can't get it done. The fact that it's even close to being reality is mind boggling.

Rhino seems to think so

no it's not. Petracca ins 29. Pickett is 23. Pickett is a bigger loss. Pickett is a former pick 9, taken in the same draft as Jackson. He's kicked more goals than Cyril at the same age and applies defensive pressure. His trade value is similar to Luke Jackson.

You get 6 years more service out of Pickett. Come on now.

Your arguments are not grounded in reality. Are you really comparing him to Cyril? I thought Cyril was over rated in the media and I don't think you would find many people who would think they are close to the same value.

Please leave the board.

I think you will find most of us would be ok with Pick 10 and Future First.

I originally thought Pick 10 and Pick 27 would be enough but after further thought its unders.

 

[Dockeroo]

He was pick 12 actually.
Pick 9 was Liam Henry

Wanted to come discuss the trade here but I've noticed you're all replying to ignored content from the one and only so if any of you want to come to our board and respectfully discuss trades feel free.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

Man, so like for real, Pickett has requested a trade and Freo just need to make it work? I will legit never forgive the place if they can't get this done. There is no real reason unless Melbourne and Tigers are complete asshats about it

With Bolton and Pickett, you're a top 4 team so the F1 isn't a great pick.

Has he requested a trade to Freo. What's the source?

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

To be fair, for most us it's hardly a discussion, more just name your price. I feel for you guys to be honest

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

I've been following trades long enough to know the RD tweet means he wants a trade but it just needs to be sorted out without an official request

 

[Rockmelon]

10, 27 and F1.

Honestly, would take that without a second thought.

Are you sure you don’t want switkowski?

 

[poshman]

Happy to chat with people who aren't ridiculous. We know the price will be high. It shouldn't be top five player in the league high.

I also understand you might not want to lose him, as I didn't Neale or Hogan for that matter... or Acres.

Where do you think the consensus sits on the Melbourne board?

 

[Joao]

I want NOD on the inside tbh. I know it’d leave us a touch short on wing depth and he’s shown a bit in the wing in the past but I think that inside mid is where he’ll be play his best footy. He has that burst speed that no other inside mid on our list has.

To the bolded I answer this:



I'm not against NoD getting some inside time, but he also plays good on the wing.

Rhino seems to think so

I've been telling y'all for ages that there is nothing remotely interesting about us having cap space for 2 jets after 8 years of being ****.

What would be interesting is if we still had cap space for Baker or Warner.
