Would definitely do that, though I'd rather keep Weller. Need a McCarthy type but.
16 & Weller to saints for 5
5 & next years 1st or a player for McCarthy?

Would get it done or very close to
That's pretty much on the money. Could be an exchange of later picks in freos favour of that was the deal

Surely if we got 5, it would get it done by itself. Maybe a steak knives player if it suited your requirements but no one of any quality worth more than a 3rd rounder. IMO you would be crazy to hold out if 5 was on the table. Turning over your list for top end talent while they have currency is going to bode well for the future. Better than the Gold Coast approach where a lot of their initial squad has lost a lot of trade value. Once you start making finals, the new players will be keen to hang around for the flag tilt.

McCarthy will have just as much appeal if not more with another 12 months of development under his belt. No way under any circumstance will we let him go for a single pick unless its pick 1 or 2 which you cannot get. Pick 5 plus your first rounder next year would be tempting however.

And nor could you, nor anyone without dealing in hypotheticals that suit their agenda. Freo fans included.
He is more chance to raise his value.

I do laugh how freo fans are "looking out" for us by wanting to trade now before he loses his value.

If thats the case i would think freo fans would be wanting for us to hild off. He will come cheaper to them next year. Oh look a cow just jumped over the moon.

See Aaron Black. Players values go up and down so it is a flip of a coin depending on his output, injuries, opportunity, mental state.

Potential is just as valuable as proven performance. Right now he has both, who's to say that is the case in the future, it's unknown.

He's more a chance to raise his value, based of what's ideal for you. He's also more of a chance to sit and sulk in the 2's and diminish according to Freo fans.

looking out for GWS fans? I don't see anybody doing that. Delusions of grandeur.

<insert token sarcastic comment.>

Except he isnt a child and is a professional footballer.
You guys dont think to highly of him if you think he is a sook who will cry in the magoos for 2 years.

Well if freo arent looking out for us why do they keep worrying about his drop in value? Surely they would want him for less?

Let's get something straight, I don't speak for freo or even other posters - so this "you guys" makes no sense to me, nor did I imply that that's what he'll do next year, I was simply suggesting it was just as much of a possibility in the same token as you suggesting that his value would be a lock increase. I have absolutely no inclination which way things will happen, however I don't have the sheer arrogance to profess the rub of the green will fall my way in any scenario.

Not a lock. More likely. Theres a difference. You do exactly what we all do so get of the horse.

Yes that post showed you dont have arrogance at all

A). More likely, based on what.
B). I haven't done what you or anyone else is doing in this instance. Playing devils advocate is hardly taking a side as to how things play out, "doing what we all do" would be pointless posturing and claiming the rub of the green will be yours - which I didn't do.
C). If Arrogance = calling you out on your arrogance? Whatever make you happy.

A - That he isnt a child. So wont sit out a year in the magoos. Another offseason he will be better next season. Again an opinion and more likely than all of a sudden being crap or crying in the magoos.

B - By god we have opinions. So your saying you dont?

C - Hardly arrogant. Its an opinion. The only high horse arrogance here is yours as shown in the past few post.
