You can on-trade picks, but not players so it's a no to the Vince part of the deal![]()
What about in a 3-way deal?

That's possible, but it would need to include a bit to prize the mini-draft pick from GWS. Not too mention that its rare for a big 3 way deal like that to get done!
Rare doesn't mean it's not possible. What would net us Vince? Pick 25/26 or do we need to add a player?
Pick 25/26 and Mcarthy for Vince and pick 30/31
Vince, Goldsack and pick 30 to GWS for a pick in the Mini and Marty?

Haha despite saying its rare I did say its possible. Using this trade as a template it sits at:
GWS -
Gain: Vince, Goldsack and pick 35 (which is Adelaide's 2nd rounder atm)
Lose: Mini draft pick
Collingwood -
Gain: Mini draft pick and Clarke
Lose: Pick 25/26, Goldsack and McCarthy
Adelaide -
Gain: McCarthy and pick 25/26
Lose: Vince and pick 35
I'd be surprised if Adelaide accepted that deal for Vince (because we're basically saying Vince is only worth a 9/10 pick upgrade over McCarthy) and I think its a bit for us to give considering the only pay-off we're likely to see until 2014 is a fringe player.
However it isn't outlandish as its the type of deal that could earn a mini-draft pick, we'll see I guess!
Outlandish is an understatement- Adelaide would not go for this. They aren't Freo.
Still, I keep scratching my head as to why Wellingham's name keeps being mentioned as a potential trade?
That ship has long sailed. He is very much a required player and is a young star.
Don't want to lose Wellingham, but sooner or later something has to give. The competition is designed like that. We will lose someone to another club over the next couple of years, it's just a matter of being able to manage it a best we can.
I understand we have to lose someone but over the next year or so we will have a few more "retirees" with guys like Davis and Johnson not getting any younger, Tarrant too (eventually).
IMO, these guys must be held onto at all costs:
Harry
Pendles
Daisy
N Brown
Beams
Reid
Wellingham
Sidebottom
Dawes
Cloke
Shaw.
Guys like Swanny, Dids, Maxy, Jolly, Ball etc will not leave us so that is why I didn't include them.
I think the above players I mentioned should be able to be retained without something "having to give".
We have plenty of other depth players we can move on if we need to without compromising the core of our list.
Cloke will be fine. He will forever be one of ours.
Writing up his own contract for next time round going by his output.
I'm wondering what the back line looks like when Brown comes back in - does Tarrant go forward?
Cloke contract finishes in 2012. His 8th year at the club. Yes he'd qulaify for limited free agency but also gets closer to his 10 years with the club. His next deal, if it's a 3 year deal, will have that 3rd year on our veterans list. No club will outbid us in that case unless GWS have not taken an uncontracted Pie player at that point.
Happy Days![]()
I think either Tarrant or Brown will go forward.
Are you saying Cloke is eligible for the veterans list for 2015? Correct me if i'm wrong, but i was under the impression that a player must have served 10 years already AND be turning 30 years old by september 30th in the year that the club intends to put them on the veterans list.
Hence why Tarrant isnt on the veterans list yet, coz he only fills the age requirement atm, not the years played requirement (will go on the vets list next year). Another example is Didak, who is in his 11th year, but is still not on the veterans list, coz he doesnt turn 30 until the 2013 season, the season in which he is eligible to be put on the vets list.
From my calculations, we won't be able to put Cloke on the veterans list until 2017, the year in which he turns 30, not the 2015 season.
Nah they have changed the rules, or i should say they are changing the rules for the veterans list for next year.
Under the old rule it is correct a player needed both to be 30 years old and have 10 years experience at the club.
The new rule will mean that a player only needs 10 years at the club, no matter how old he is.
No way! thats fricken awesome!!!!!!!!!!!! that means next year all of johnson, davis, tarrant, didak and swan will be on the veterans list!! with maxwell to join them the year after! that frees up so much cap space, especially as swan is arguably our highest paid player with didak sure to be in the top 5! just a bit exicited about this haha
