EFAHowe you know This?
Okay so this probably wont happen and I think someone alluded to it previously but if Aish was to nominate another club and Freeman and Seedsman were both traded for 2nd round picks would people be prepared to pay a little over for Treloar in order to keep this years first round pick and possibly next years?
I'm thinking Treloar for 2016 2nd rd, 2015 3 x 2nd rd, 2015 3rd which will still land GWS a lot of points for this years draft.

Assuming Freeman was traded to St.Kilda, Seedsman to North who make the prelim and we finish next year in 8th place the points total would be:
2015 2,512 pts
2016 653 pts
Total 3,165
Equivalent of pick 1!
Not answering your question, I know, but is this gonna be a one-year loophole before they change things again?Okay so it's unlikely that we'd get away with not giving up a first rounder for Treloar but the premise still stands.
Would you pay a premium in order to keep this years pick 7?
2 x 2015 2nd rd, one 2015 3rd rd using the above scenario would net them 1,949 pts enough to cover a bid for a player with pick 5 with of course a first rounder in 2016 still to come.
Pick 7 should probably land us any of Carlisle, Dixon, Yarran, Bennell etc if interested or we could take it to the draft and get ourselves some more top end young talent.
There is growing speculation that Aish may be going to Adelaide or Hawthorn, although we are definitely interested and in the race for his services.

Pick 7 and 2016 first round for Treloar and 2016 first round
Freeman for saints 2nd rounder (pick 24?)
We then have picks 24, 27, 28
Use these and steak knives (seedsman, Oxley, Kennedy), for Aish and Yarran

My thoughts exactly. There was speculation as to whether or not he was waiting to see how Bergs contract played out, but that's done now and still no noise from the Aish camp. I reckon he was feigning interest to Vic clubs to try to boost his price from Adelaide.Our season is over, if Aish was coming to us he would've nominated us by now. He would be waiting for Adelaide's season to be over
Crows would give up their 1st (about 14-15)
What would Hawks give up? Suckling and their 1st rd (about 17-19)
Lions would prefer Hawks deal

What do you mean 'doing nothing'? It's been pretty well established that his management has met with Collingwood, Carlton, Richmond and St Kilda. Just because he hasn't requested a trade yet doesn't mean he's been sitting in a corner doing zip.I don't know if doing nothing counts as 'feigning interest' as such, but I suppose he'd take a higher offer if it was there![]()

Technically black and white. My cat is white all over with a black tail and black mark on its head. What makes him more Magpie than Geelong , he is missing 2 canine teeth , a 6kg keg on legs , 15yrs old and still takes on anyone anytime, including possums.My cat is black with a slightly white chest
does that count?
That is why the Treloar Trade will have a Barrying on what we give up in Treloar Trade

And will suck up their cap taking attention away from Treloar and reducing this bidding war crap.Yarran to Richmond seems like a perfect match - flaky is right.
He was told ages ago he wasn't part of our plans mate.Seedsman just so you know we didn't tell him he would be traded he has requested a trade
Interesting - saw the writing on the wall, I guess.Seedsman just so you know we didn't tell him he would be traded he has requested a trade
