Traded Jordan Clark and F4 traded to Fremantle for #22 and F3 (Carl)

Will either turn out to be better than Cerra or a total bust.

What if Cerra turns into a bust?

First posted by thewiz0033 on the Freo board but apparently Pav has said on the news that Geelong wants pick 19 and a F3.

I hope that's true and they don't budge because it will mean that we will walk away.

Wells already made it clear he was asking 22 and a future 3rd. Which is pretty much the same as what you're offering

Source? Pav would have an inside word from Freo.

It pretty much not what we're offering or the deal would be done.

 

[Priddis Is Done]

Late 2nd rounder, at best.

More like a mid 3rd rounder.

I'll have to go looking for it, but it was being presented a Wells giving the option of pick 19 or pick 22 and a f3rd. Which has been the subject of the last dozen pages here. Pav could have mis heard it, or maybe it's just a bit of posturing so when the middle ground 22+f3rd eventuates it seems more palatable. I dunno

Unsure which of the 3 journalists credited this came from but see below.

"The Cats are reportedly still keen on acquiring either the Dockers’ Pick 19 or Pick 22 and a future third-round pick tied to Carlton as compensation for losing the contracted Clark, who wants to return home and play for the WA club."

raffrox I think I get it. Do you reckon maybe it's just a punctuation thing? Like Pav read it as the f3 with either Pick 19 or 22, rather than the way we've been reading it as either the future 3rd and Pick 20 or Pick 19 outright?

In any case, 22+f3rd is basically just accepting 22 while saving a bit of face

Imagine getting a buzz on around Horsham and then waking up in Kalgoorlie brothel with no money and fresh tattoos. You look over and Ben Cousins is in the corner dancing and chewing his own face off.

Welcome home sandgroper

Shame Ben is a human being, but such is life.

Yeah maybe. Pick 19 + F3 is over the top. Even pick 22 + F3 requires Clark to be close to recruit if the year kind of stuff. Guess we'll see tomorrow.

You sure know how to kill a buzz. I do hope he's doing well though.

We wouldnt ask for that unless geelong was sending a pick with clark (probably one of our 30s picks) but still i doubt freo does it.
I expect the deal to be 22 and F3.

Jesus, just take pick 22 and move on.

I know Geelong have the upper hand owing to Clark's contract status. Even if however, he remains at Geelong next year (and has a good year), I'm not convinced Geelong will acquire more than pick 22 for an uncontracted player.

I'm not convinced that with a new coaching panel and more opportunities next year he even asks to leave

I prefer to wait another year and take Fremantle to the absolute cleaners like we did with West Coast and Tim Kelly

Geelong has acted in bad faith and that’s burnt the bridge with Clark.

After Selwood and Dangerfield retire Geelong won’t be making finals.

About the same time you fall off a cliff and keep recruiting from the retirement village

So your solution is to let capable young players go for a lottery tickets in a draft where the kids have played maybe less than a dozen games in 2 years?

He's regressed. Worth less than his draft value at the time.

 

[CatToTheFuture]

Even more reason to keep him.

 

[Shadow89]

Only 11 more hours of this crap to go

 

[kaiserchief13]

Even more reason to keep him.

1. He wants to leave
2. He isn’t in Geelongs best 22

If Geelong didn't want him to leave maybe they should have played him more. Given his lack of games he is only worth around pick 40

 

[DragoDelph]

So no deals can be lodged until 2pm AEDST. (11AM here in the west)
Looks like Dawson will be first.
How soon before the deadline at 7:45 does this get done?

going to say 6 pm eastern. Leaves time for the crazy

Well he's contracted so there's room to change that

Doesn't matter. Geelong have treated him poorly so he wants to leave understandably but want overs for him, it really is a joke
