It really does make me wonder what we would give in return? Collingwood obviously know something we don't as you wouldn't go after a player you couldn't get. I have a feeling we have something up our sleeve this year . Going to be very interesting.

Witts, Cloke and Williams are our top trade pieces this period. We have to turn those guys and maybe another player or pick into something Essendon wants.

Can't see it happening. Bombers and Dodoro notoriously hard to deal with.

Could Freo give up pick 3 for Lobb/McCarthy? Maybe even add Walters as steak knives? Frees up some cash for the Giants who can add another elite kid for their upcoming premiership window.
Ask for one of their best players as Steak Knives hahaahhahhahahahhaa

You can't use all those picks for those players for 1 person we won't have enough picks for brown and Daicos . Also hearing we are leading the race for WHE so another curve ball.

How would you suggest it would happen otherwise, then?

If the rumours are that the Dogs are a chance to get Hurley and may part ways with Boyd to open up the salary cap, that is.

Ps did you just board search "Tom Boyd" to find my post? Surely you don't have that much time to stalk each club's trade thread...
You suggested we give up pick 19 and Jong for a 30 year old has been, what kind of response were you expecting? "Oh dear" is as respectful as one could be.

Secondly, don't know where you've gotten the idea that we are in the market for trading Boyd. Personally I have my concerns, but he's still only 21 and not going anywhere.

Lastly, I'm curious as to how you came to the conclusion that I found my way here by trawling through trade threads and searching for all things Tom Boyd :huh:

He said "or pick" not every pick we have. We get a discount on Daicos and Brown. We're fine for points.

This is purely hypothetical: only sorta value we have = Hurley.
Sidebottom.
Would we do Sidebottom for Hurley? Considering our plethora of midfielders.

*i don't want to trade him*.

What's your definition of steak knives Ruprecht?

Mine is adding an extra element to the original deal to get it over the line. Lobb & McCarthy for 3 is probably not enough from Freo. Adding Walters evens it up.

3 and second for Lobb and McCarthy is fair. Walters is silk. He's worth a a top 10 pick.

Robbing Peter to pay Paul because there's no point in weakening a strength just to strengthen a weakness.

We aren't without hope of putting together a decent offer, but it requires some nifty work ala Melbourne last trade period.

For instance I actually think Witts is a great fit for Essendon so if we can find a top 20 pick to complimemt him that could get us into the contest depending on how highly Essendon value Witts.

We aren't getting Hurley no matter what, We have nothing and Essendon will ask the world (as they should)
After reading the article it's really difficult to see how we could secure him.

Let Essendon get Nate Brown for nada via FA, then use that compo pick we get for Brown as part of any trade, might be a good starting point. The more Essendon pay Brown the better the pick they get back should Hurley pick us.:oops:

Still only 2nd rounders likely left to add to that though.

We look like we might have quite a few second rounders after trading and the extra compo pick. If we turn them into a first rounder, theres a start. Witts and Brown may also be of interest. It'll take some clever maneuvering but it isn't entirely without hope.
