Game Day 2024 Trade Period - Lian Yu - that liminal space between trade and draft.

[freo_leo29]

Given we didn't make the 8 we still need more than just Shai. For example Sharp and NOD show promise but they are no Gulden, N Martin, etc.

Meh

Sydney made a GF but Mcdonald aint no Treacy and Amartey aint no Amiss


Every side has weaknesses, its such an even competition, we were bloody close to top 4 let alone top 8


as for adding players, Brissy bottom 4 in 2018, top 2 in 2019 after adding Neale

You know this or assuming this?

I’ll be honest if you’re just assuming it I think we all are somewhat - surely he can’t be happy running around at Peel every week at 26 years of age. What a terrible contract for the club.

How do you know what kind of money he's on? after 2022 he should have got a new deal & pay rise. The club has come out & said he won't be traded? I'm sure if there was interest, they'd be happy to look at it. his interview WAFL GF day pretty much proves he would move if he had interest

Maybe his highlight reels will sway you?

Highlights reels always look good

It’s so interesting the rhetoric around this.

Houston is a gun. 27 years old, twice All Australian. Why not?

Not just twice AA, but the fact that he’s AA for the past two seasons. It’s not like he was good just a few years ago. He’s been just about the best player in his position in the competition for the past two years.

I don't understand this.

Why is Bolton worth more than Houston

Wa Tax and contracted for more. It’s shit but that’s he it goes.

he's not; the press always think Freo should be shafted in any trading! .....drum roll.... enter Bell and Walls!

Man I know at his best Shai is kinda exactly what we need but I still feel like it’s much more likely he never reaches that when he comes over.

It can be deceptive to watch a 5 minute highlight package. What’s he doing for the other 2000+ minutes in a year.

I really watched the Richmond games to end the season when chatter became louder. He was deplorable, but they were arguably his worst 4 games of the season.

I need to keep telling myself he’s a cream on the cake player. In an area of massive need.

2 firsts are a big price but none of them will be top 10.

What I am confident on, is he will play 100+ games for Freo. In his prime and at a time Freo should be contending.

I have no confidence that draft picks will do that.

Would it be hyperbole to say this is probably freos most important trade period ever?

 

[purplerunsdeep2]

At best we get a F3 for him?

What time does it actually start

Office is open now. Don’t think any list managers have shown up yet

Whne the AFL decides which trade they want to announce first, I reckon most are genuinely already done, it's just a drip feed over the next week and a half.

Period been open for 20 minutes and we've done nothing to improve the list.

Sack them all... no one wants to come here!

We’ll get 2 today. After lunch.

Darling for 67
ANB for 28

We will receive countless murmurs

 

[Azz 27]

Where is Lucas?

 

[King Huskii]

I don't understand this.

Because he wants to go to Freo
