So Freo think he's not worth more than Pick 27 even though he's contracted, hey?

Interesting that the article headline states 'Freo names their price.' Given he's our player, I woulda thought that, ya know, we'd name the price...crazy concept I know.

Let the games begin!

Not worth more than pick 27 but worth putting a 4 year contract to a contracted player

pull the other one freo

Why would we trade Clarke for pick 27, can’t get anyone playing in our seniors next year for that. Just keep him as he is under contract. If Freo want him they need to pay more or try their luck with the draft with their pick 27.
There is no way we trade Clarke for pick 27, that will probably end up being pick 30-31. If we let him go my guess is we offer Clarke and a 2nd this year, for their future 1st. Which Freo won’t accept, so he stays.

Maybe we take pick 27 and run? Looking at all our past first rounders that have left and what we got for them isn’t very promising.

If we look at it without the Geelong goggles on 27 is probably a steal, he's been with us 3 years, started ok but then hurt his elbow, then his shoulder and hasnt been the same player since, is still built like a weed and isnt in our best 22 and when he does play he ***** up by missing goals from the goal square (yes i know that only happened once), i understand everyone has a thirst for speed, thats not an issue, its the rest of his game that doesn't stack up. Maybe Freo can get more out of him, maybe not but we should take 27 and run, for all we know we might be able to get Knevitt with that pick.
 
Strap yourselves in for a stupid suggestion

James Tsitas just won the Margarey medal
Luke Partington 3rd I think

Couple of rookie list spots that could maybe be spent worse than that

I loved tsitas for his leadership when he was with us but his kicking isnt afl standard imo. Id happily have him back for our vfl team though.

Must admit Im not sure what he has shown last 2 years to go at almost his draft price we paid
 
8 is not gonna happen and 27 is too low when hes contracted the middle ground is a 15-20 pick. Something where we get the dogs pick 17 they get darcy points and freo give up 27 and other picks and get clark is what i imagine the club wants to release him.
 
There’s obviously a different situation at the Suns but Brodie was pick 9 and is 22. If he was on our list we’d be hoping the club would get a good return. Not exactly the same as the players that are leaving geelong. But it shows good picks don’t always work out and players rarely get traded for what they were drafted.
 
He doesn't look too bad in a Bankers uniform 😉

I can see Constable either being a late deal as the trade period is about to finish for a team that has some open spots on their list, or potentially a very late 1 season offer from Geelong with the knowledge that if it clicks they can offer him a longer deal next year or delist to open a spot ahead of what's expected to be a better draft

This is the third consecutive trade period where he's looked at his options and the third consecutive trade period where it's seemingly crickets in terms of external interest -doesn't really bode well for Constable
I think Geelong are clearly moustachist.
He needs to remove it and show he is a young desperate footballer with a broken heart.
C'mon Joel, give the kid a plug
He might well be your replacement in 12 months.
Gets more of the ball than you and dishes it to the Guthries, Duncan's, Smith's and your good self.
It may just help with your wear and tear and have you ready for finals in 2022.
The kid is not afraid to get his hands dirty.
 
Keep in mind that it was discussed that only 55 players will be drafted this year including recycles. Given list spots open etc. last year it was 59.

Taking #30 for Jordan Clark would be a error it looks like we won’t make.

Any deal involving a late 3rd or early 4th is just a give away. The player will be there at the end of the draft.

As an example this could work

Cerra and freos future 3rd for carl 6 and 25
Fort to brisbane for 57
Freo give up 25 and 27 and get clark and 34
Dogs give 17 and future R2 (assume say pick 35 next year) and get 25 27 52 and 57 (this is enough points to match darcy at pick 3
Geelong give Fort Clark 34 and 52 and get 17 and dogs future 2nd.
It values clark at roughly pick 25 on points but gives all clubs what i imagine they want. Could add in later pick swaps between clubs as needed to even it out.
Would give us 17 30 32 and then obviously whatever we get for kreuger minus whatever we spend on any ruck we trade in.

Brad Close, Tom Atkins, Zach Tuohy and Tom Stewart say hai :)
 
Does anybody think Collingwood will get Kreuger for free in the pre-season draft? Yes that chances of this happening is low as clubs would want a deal to happen, but it's happening more n more eg Jack Martin to Carlton, Hatley to Adelaide...
I just some how think this could happen with Kreuger...🤷‍♂️

Depends on whether lipinski goes to the psd but its possible.

Close covers it by wearing long sleaves
Atkins with his 1 track footy
Tuohys is the mo of a vintage car driver and
Stewart is allowed to play because he's brilliant.
Poor old Charlie has a Chaplin mo, so is the laughing stock.
But see what happened to Chaplin
Same given name too
Something in it

Might depend on whom they find it easier to deal with
- Geelong & Freddie, or
- Bulldogs & Lipinski

Wouldn't be surprised if one goes to the PSD and they trade for the other

This is where the team that gets creative with a trade may get the deal done
