News Gone: Alex Keath wants to be traded to the Bulldogs

[spexau]

2nd rounder for an out of contract player who's played less than 50 games. Again we had no bargaining power with him being out of contract and nominating one club. Reckon we'll be using some futures to do some pick trading back into this draft.

 

[Sidthehat]

Isn't the rule of thumb that next year's trade worth one round less? Know with Edwards and Borlase a bit different but this period has been a big fail.
At least we'll always have the CEY 49 compensation.

 

[BACCS]

So it's not a loss.

Maybe a slight loss, but on 2nd look not as bad as I thought first up.

 

[bates121]

What do people think players are worth? We have essentially traded out a whole lot of crap and got back what they are worth. Keath the exception but he not worth a first pick either.

 

[Crow till I die]

Didn't botch this trade.

you are assuming we will keep the picks we currently have - plenty of time to pick trade and we have good currency for next year when a heap of clubs will be scrapping for points for NGA and F/S players

 

[BACCS]

The sooner clubs can trade these guys to anywhere they want the better. Having to deal with one club is crap and so ancient.

 

[Cleric]

It's a pick 30.

In a compromised draft that's weaker than this, 12 months after our rebuild starts.
Useless.

 

[MRB37]

We're essentially giving them back pick 45 next year, to get their 2nd, so about pick 32-34 in the end.

 

[Scorpus]

The big issue was getting ****ed with Greenwood.

He was worth more than Keath

 

[Southerntakeover]

And on trade night as well. Binuk is there with Reid so these trades are all about sorting out what we need for this years and next year's draft. We are in rejuvenation mode.

Really gonna turn things around with a bunch of the 70th to 100th best players in next year's draft too.

 

[GROTTO]

Getting pick 13 was far too optimistic

Come on, I think it was realistic.

Plus that was never the trade, it was Pick 23 + Keath for Pick 13.

 

[CutAboveTheRest]

Future picks can still be traded for this year's picks right up to the draft yeah......

This is the only thing that makes me hold some sort of hope.. but lets be honest Mutineer.. It's all false hope with our current list manager.

 

[pjcrows]

Reid puts the foot down an hour ago, then folds late. That's worse than just copping a loss early and then having time to do other things with pick swaps etc.

The bloke is hopeless.

 

[Crowbots are dead]

It’s par, nothing more or less, still should’ve kept him.

True but not what the luxe brigade were suggesting.

 

[ShadeyP]

Let's see what we end up with at the end of the Draft ... not great yet but we have some stuff to shuffle around .

 

[LoBu]

That's a win for us, he's not in our team anyway

Pretty fair trade, yes we'd have wanted to get their first round pick but if this situation is reversed I doubt we'd be wanting to pass it over even with a 2nd coming back. Maybe if he was 2 years younger.

 

[Scorpus]

Come on, I think it was realistic.

Plus that was never the trade, it was Pick 23 + Keath for Pick 13.

He wasn't worth that downgrade

 

[TheLeftFist8]

It’s not a massive trade loss but a loss nonetheless.

We had bargaining power, GC gave us that by threatening PSD.

That said, I mean I'm not particularly upset by this deal, it's just par. We got a second rounder (which helps out with points), we got a pick in this draft. Definitely better than the Greenwood deal.

 

[GROTTO]

The big issue was getting f’ed with Greenwood.

He was worth more than Keath

That was true, we got screwed there as well.

I would argue for what we lost and what we gained. From a list perspective we are not much better off.

 

[FantasticShirt]

And on trade night as well. Binuk is there with Reid so these trades are all about sorting out what we need for this years and next year's draft. We are in rejuvenation mode.

In Binuk we trust.

 

[Crowbots are dead]

Weak as piss, both Greenwood and Keath gone for a packet of chips, with no gaurentees that our F/S and NGA will actually be 1st rounders or any good at all, talk about all our eggs in one basket.

Dumb post . Second rounder is not a packet of chips

 

[ams4crows]

I hope who ever they draft at 13 is a dud

 

[WaynesWorld19]

Competition & Media continue to laugh at us ....probably paying Keaths Salary as well

We'll have to salary dump next year, to enable us to pay all the players at other clubs
