Yeah I mean he's not worth a first rounder. I'd suggest we want the equivalent of two first rounders, like pick 9 and Cockatoo, not pick 9 and Murdoch.

If the shoe was on the other foot, I wouldn't be trading the farm to get him - nope. He is a good player, but how good he is going to be over the length of his next contract, I'm not sure.
BUT ... It's not what he is worth to me though, it is what he is worth to Geelong. Which we should find out in a few weeks time.

If WCE match with Selwood then they're idiots. Geelong walks. Scott doesn't hold a candle to Joel, and as far as I'm concerned he's just a good honest plodder. Adelaide matching for Danger is a completely different story altogether. I don't think WCE will match, though. I think that article is a load of shit. Adelaide I believe harbour genuine desires to match, and so they should if they have the cap to match and believe Geelong will trade.
No way.

Each to their own, I guess.
Posters have dismissed David King's comments, but there might be something in them. The compo pick is a first-round freebie that gets thrown into the mix.
It also sounds like the AFC and AFL have been communicating about what deals will wash.
I wouldn't put it past Fagan et al to think outside the box.

I have read the entire other thread so I have gone through my hazing 
Using the compo picks helps Geelong a lot more than us.
We will be left straining to come up with some slightly lopsided deals that still pass the test while they give up virtually nothing for Dangerfield...stuff them, match the offer!!
just to clarify.....geelong want, Dangerfield, Henderson, Selwood, smith, and according to their supporters, somehow every single player of theirs is an untouchable and will not be up for trade. Can't wait to see how this plays out
Yeah - Geelong have a big problem with their list. They might have to let a player or two go for multiple draft picks - or give up a pick for multiple players.
The numbers just don't add up otherwise.
If they give up all of the first 3 round picks this year for trades - they would have 5 players to fill up with picks in the 50s. Now unless they have a plan to change those numbers before the ND - they will end up with a very shallow pool.

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned as yet, but is there a possibility that Adelaide and Geelong come to an agreement where Adelaide allows danger to leave, accepts the compensation pick meaning there is one more first rounder in the mix and then Geelong and Adelaide do a trade in such a way where Geelong sends their first round draft pick to Adelaide and possibly a player or another draft pick from this year or next?
Obviously this doesn't sound legal and it would be a big FU to the AFL, but it would be in both clubs best interest for this to happen. Geelong would see this as a massive win, only giving up 1 first round pick instead of 2. Adelaide will see it as a win getting their 2 first round draft picks and to even up the kitty, a player might be thrown in or maybe Geelong's second round draft pick from next year???
I'm sure this wouldn't be allowed, but if it was a loophole, there may be a possibility of both clubs coming to a handshake agreement before trade week.

Maybe go back a few pages and have a look-see?
i hate the idea of somehow using that compo pick in a dodgy trade ... we need to make them weaker because thats what they're doing to us. no doubt the afl would not allow that, not to mention the rest of the comp...
even if we did that, its geelong that wins, not us because they need to pay 2 first rounders + a player of value.

Unless pick 14 compo somehow is sliding in the side door too.
No idea how that will happen though.
OutofTownCrow Ummmm....this thread would not of moved past page one if that was a thread rule.. (No repeating)

That article regarding danger signing a 1 year deal is a complete load of s**t. How would that get him closer to playing for geelong, they'd still need to trade for him next season. If anything he'd be further away from playing for geelong as he may be content playing for another vic club after spending a year there
Cheers, thanks for the write up
I know but the post was started with "I'm not sure if this has been mentioned as yet" ... just made me twitch a little
Your too focused on making Geelong pay. We should be focused on what we can get. If Geelong can deliver us 2 first rounds (one could be next year) and player that we are happy with then do you really care about how Geelong do it.
We shouldn't need to lose anything other than danger......that David king idea had us giving geelong Lyons and our first rounder. What for? Over complicating it

I reckon they'd be working out exactly what the most acceptable secondary sweetener deal is though.
