Stick trading our first round pick, offer Conca & Elton/Astbury for Weller and their second, trade our first & Dockers pick to GWS for Treloar, trade our 2nd round pick to Geelong for Motlop.

Out: Conca, Elton/Astbury 1st round and 2 second round picks
In: Treloar Weller & Motlop.

Would make up for only landing Hunt last year.

Get it done Blair and Dan and we'll forgive you for giving Morris a contract until 2017.

All trades skewed mightily in our favour IMO
 
this is from the QA on Weller's bio on Freo's website....
Favourite player to watch growing up: Brett Deledio

He'll be a tiger in 2016. Lock it in!

While we're at it. Fyfe will also be a tiger.
Favourite player to watch growing up: Matthew Richardson

But so will Zac Clarke.

Michael Talia not a happy dog in the kennel. Doubt he'll be playing for them next year. Worth a look, particularly if we lose Astbury/Elton

Would get less games for us than them. Can't imagine that will make him happier.

My source told me some Tiger related 'behind the scenes' list management news tonight involving a target they are actively pursuing ... but its so unbelievable that I don't want to go too early with it just yet! I'll get some confirmation tomorrow to back it up!

Watch this space! (Sorry not trying to come across as a tease!)

It's ok if you were C4[2]Yo`DooR , you come up with some good stuff:thumbsu:.....Look forward to your "confirmation", cheers

Ok maybe its not THAT unbelievable - but its just caught me by suprise.

Richmond are going pretty hard behind the scenes at a certain Fremantle recent draftee who whos is having trouble adjusting to life in Perth and is looking to possibly be another James Aish situation.

I don't want to make it too obvious .. but the player in question was drafted last year and has a brother who plays at St Kilda ;)

Tigers confident.

That was the plan all along:p, I'd love him at the Tiges...

Trade out crap, trade in gold. It's a brilliant recruiting strategy!

West Coburg were playing at Piranha park today and a bloke who knows Ceglar from hawthorn( who will run around in the vfl against Coburg tomorrow )reckons he's not happy man at Hawthorn atm. Big Boy McEvoy is starving him of opportunity
Don't know what his contract status is, but surely he wouldn't cost us much
I personally think meh meh ,but haven't seen much of him

Not a bad player but he probably can't push Maric out yet, won't be a long term number one. And we've already invested enough in a back up ruck IMO.

No way that is crazy! Why would we swap a first rounder for a second rounder makes no sense.
If we are chasing Weller and he nominated us a first rounder would be absolutely max we would give them.
As much as Weller would be a good get this off season I think our first rounder could be spent on a better, proven player. I.e Motlop.
Hopefully we could trade our second and a player for him?

We aren't swapping a first rounder for a second rounder in isolation. We still get a player or 2 in that trade, and it was for this year not next year( he still contracted for next year), which is why its a little overs to try and pry the player our of a club. I also like Motlop and this is all pure speculation and until the trade time comes we don't what is available. If Motlop wanted to come to us I would say that is the first priority but would you pay a first for him? I would try to swap a first for their second plus Motlop, but most likely cost us the pick outright.

Yeh he is worth our first i reckon (14-16).
Motlop is exactly what we need, a fwd/mid. He is creative and quick. He could potentially even be played off half back, or if forward could release lids to half back.
Weller would be a good get but you wouldnt want to spend to much in the way of picks/players to get him. He hasnt played a game yet, he could be a massive flop.

Yes and no. Conca is a former pick 6 with 70 odd games of experience under his belt and with Elton/Astbury they get a young KPD to replace the aging McPharlin for the loss of Weller(yet to play) and a late second round pick. As for Treloar, I've mentioned before that the Giants if they do lose Treloar for picks will want early picks to allow them to get their academy picks that are likely to cost them early picks to land both without going into points deficit for next years draft. So our first and the Dockers second pick would give the Giants an extra haul of points to allow them to get their 2 academy picks. Then there is Motlop, who is likely to be squeezed out if the Cats land both Dangerfield and Henderson as they are hoping to do. If Motlop picks us as his destination and all we have to trade is our second pick they either accept that or risk losing him for nothing.

So while I can see why you'd suggest that they are skewed in our favor we're not trading the likes of Knights Newman Foley who are at the end of the road almost, we're trading things of value to get value back.

Who have we invested in ? Soldo or Hampson or TV ?
Not sure if they're long term yet

Not jumping in early with hammer. Still need more evidence that he's trustworthy and reliable for the job. Last week was solid but as we nknow there are a maximum of 22 games plus finals in a season
 
Cant believe how rich some of these trades are and how quickly our supporters jizz over and want to pay the world to get these players across and under value our own.

Weller is worth our 1st and thats max, Some would argue he is worth less now than when he was recruited as he has made up his mind to move and will most likely go if not this year then next and freo wont get anywhere near the value.

Also another thing to consider is what is our selection in this years draft worth ? Lets say its Charlie Curnow
192cm 93kgs inside outside mid that can play foward - Faster Patrick Cripps ??

Lets just offer Freo our 2nd or Astbury and see where that takes us
