Delisted Jack Martin [Selected by Carlton in the PSD]

[Bestbird]

Good on the Suns. More so if Carlton were only offering a future second

 

[Peel67skin]

Hey Martin we offer you and pick 15 for pick 9, Carlton knock us back, welcome back. Surely you are much better than this.

 

[Belnakor]

finally held tough on something at least.

I doubt Martin ends up at Carlton now.

 

[Rich01]

Trade didn’t get done.
Expect Agresta to get the blame on this one at the Blues. SOS will clean it up with an exorbitant contract offer that no club will match via the pre season draft.

 

[Ok Boomer]

Massive fail from Carlton if this is true.

Take the L.

 

[Free Agent]

It will be pretty funny if someone else takes Martin

They should. Martin is easily the best player in the pre season draft now.

Be silly not too.

Sounds like Martin will enter the PSD or ND with a massively front loaded contract and get to the Blues.

Silly Carlton

 

[BRAB]

Carlton had the chance to walk away with Martin and 15.

End up, at best, having to use pick 9.

Sad.

 

[Chaisa]

That's crazy to reject, especially given the money they were giving Martin wasn't cheap....

 

[matty lloyd the champ]

Carlton should not be too displeased. GC won't pick him up and neither will Melbourne due to salary cap constraints. Will get Martin for free.

 

[Pablito]

GC lose him for nothing.

In what world is he worth a top 10 pick albeit along with 15.

 

[RAPPA]

SOS seen on the phone to Daisy offering him a one year contract

Or pick him up in the PSD for nothing.

Probably the first glaring mistake SOS has made at Carlton and it’s a pretty massive mistake. Pressure is on him big time going forward you would think...

Surely Martin will get picked up in the ND before we even get to the PSD?

Gold coast have the first pick in the PSD.

You goofed.

Why do you want to recruit a player worth less than a 6 pick downgrade?

 

[zeggie]

Well next year he is on base payments because he has to be.

Cool. You don't know how TPP works in the AFL. Thanks for confirming!

 

[Thrawn]

Gold coast have the first pick in the PSD.

You goofed.

And they're going to use it for a player who wants out?

Yeah ok then.

 

[Iva Bigun]

Lol Carlton, SOS can’t get the Papley or Martin deal done, even with 15 and Martin on offer. Both clubs look dumb but failing to get 2 big fish is twice as dumb. Suns have every right to get into Martins ear and say what they offered and welcome back to the Suns., enjoy your time in the NEAFL tossbag

There's very little difference between #9 and #15 IMO. You'd have a point if it was like #9 with #35 going back, or if it was #3, but a 6 pick hit isn't that much.

Admittedly your hand is still a decent one in the PSD. But still....

 

[Belnakor]

On draft points pick 9 -> pick 15 is worth about a 3rd round pick. Was peanuts really. Carlton got greedy.

 

[TheKITC]

Got to laugh at posters claiming it's a massive fail for SOS and Carlton.

I'm happy that we stick to our (reasonable) valuations, especially for OoC, underachievers to this point in their career. Sure, I wanted him and at Carlton and that still may happen, depending on Melbourne's salary cap I reckon. But you simply do not just bend to the will of other clubs because... reasons.

Absolutely stand by what I posted last night...

Think this one may struggle to get done if GC hold out for a first round pick outright. I can absolutely see SOS and co. walking away.

There is the tricky situation of having a player commit to you and not being able to facilitate a trade, however an outright first is over the odds for an OoC Martin and sometimes you've got to know when to fold them, know when to run. I doubt any club except GC thinks Martin is worth that.

If he goes to Carlton in the PSD then GC have ****ed themselves for nothing
