Switching topic slightly - hopefully with everything that we need sorted out likely going to be sorted by day 3 (even with the potential Rheeming), we can expend all our energy on trying to shake seemingly unlikely things loose. This trade period feels wacky, and if we can get involved in the wackiness without needing to worry about getting McVee done, that's something.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

We are skating on thin ice as it is trying to compete with the trust fund clubs

Our only chance is to get good value from our resources

Maybe Judge McVee is a gun for us but it’s still a crap-Ola trade

Haha, again, Judd should be treated separately, no problems with the McVee trade (well, small problems but I wont melt over it)

I actually went to high school with Wallsy (he was a year above me loll

He is a quality lad.

Also being so called easy/flexible at the trade table will make it easier for agents to recommend their star free agent players to join your club btw, Essendon for example only recruited one big name star to their club during Dodoro's reign (Brendan Goddard) and that was because he was a free agent.

Being reasonable at the trade table will result in more big names be willingly traded to Freo (although granted, i understand your angst given Freo's previous trading history)

You have to give up quality to get quality in today's AFL (especially if you are in the premiership window like Freo)

Didn't Wallsy also engineer the fleecing of Geelong for Jordan Clark (which imo was low key one of the best value bargain trades in the last 10 years) ?

No recruiting manager is flawless or perfect, but I honestly happen to believe Wallsy's record in the last 5 years stacks up as well as a anyone else in the AFL, especially given your club's finishing position and lack of father son and academy picks.

I'll see myself out now, but i genuinely wish Freo all the best and think you guys should be very.excited/optimistic for 2026 and the future.

I am honestly jelly of your club's current list compared to mine

Quality post. Cheers mate.

Feels like 19 for Simpkin might be a bit of a stretch here….

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

Most third party supporters (eg Not Melbourne or Freo supporters) seem to think we got a bargain. I agree with them. McVee is absolutely a potential gun. His second year was elite for a young player in a top team and I think if he can get back to full fitness he'll be one of the better recruits next year.

There is basically not one person on here who has a problem with McVee for 23, that is not the issue

Nek minute 19 for Kozzie…Walls you genius

Nek minute 19 for Kozzie…Walls you genius

I heard Melbourne want a 2nd round pick this year with 19 and they'll give us Kozzie. Do you know where we might get one?

 

[Suma Says]

Is there a chance Twomey mistakenly put 33 into the deal? That seems to be about the value of the points discrepancy. He's has multiple cracks and changed the reported deal a couple times.

 

[ImperialPurple]

I wonder with Fred sliding so much and nothing he and his family being in discussion with Freo a fair bit has helped orchestrate this trade.

Whan is going to Freo anyway and we have the picks to do this without trading in next years picks

I'm not saying it's a done deal but Freo really rate Rodriguez and known what is a fair pick for him

He'll either go to WC at 12, or the pick immediately before ours. Just watch it happen.

 

[maccamk]

It’s either a missed future or we are bidding on an academy player and WC or Brisbane aren’t matching

It’s on afl.com.au it won’t have a mistake in it.

 

[wakojako]

Guys Cal got it wrong and has updated his tweet for the trade.

Wallsy also offered his first born child.

 

[King Tenz]

Another L in the David Walls trading cabinet.

Still has a lot to learn son.

 

[Lach72]

our first next year? Easy peasy.

Since Kozzie signed, McVee, Tracc and Oliver outta the door, coach sacked.

You wonder whether he’s looking at Van Der Wielen like this

 

[DragoDelph]

Well.. we don’t have our first…

 

[Ge3ks]

He'll either go to WC at 12, or the pick immediately before ours. Just watch it happen.

Just like last year when West Coast took Bo Allan a pick before ours... and we had to eat shit and take that Murphy Reid kid.

 

[Lach72]

The Goose has said we’re having a look at Tylah Williams who is in WC academy

 

[King Tenz]

In: 19, McVee, 46
Out: 12, 23, 33, 44, 50

It's a weak draft, I guess? Cos that sux.

Wallsy must really hate the draft class

Take out 23. 44 -> 46 is nothing. And 50 is nothing.

Essentially 12 and 33 for 19 and McVee.

Yeah that’s an L.

David Walls still doesn’t get it.

Why are we always so nice on the trade table?

When exactly are we going to come out on top of a trade by being nice?

 

[Redgum]

So what have we got,19(23 gone),46 and what are the other picks we have ?

 

[PrancingPony]

19 and Banfield for Pickett.

That sounds pretty even to me.

 

[Lach72]

So what have we got,19(23 gone),46 and what are the other picks we have ?

That’s it

 

[Mesc]

Just like last year when West Coast took Bo Allan a pick before ours... and we had to eat shit and take that Murphy Reid kid.

Man, It's funny how it works hey.

 

[Ge3ks]

So what have we got,19(23 gone),46 and what are the other picks we have ?

We still have some quality picks;
89 107 125 143 161 179

According to the spreadsheet at the top of this thread ^

I appreciate another one knowing the trade is garbage, but the other picks they gave up arent nothing. You hate the base trade, then they gave up MORE on top of the shitty base trade. To quote one of the classics "it's the vibe, it's the vibe of thing"

Only for Peter Bell to appear on the last night of the trade period to collect the child unless Wallsy can guess his Korean/Navajo birth name.
