dudes, remember back a bit when there was a live update on trades etc.
Dont recall which site, but tipping it was the afl site. Does anyone have the low-down on whether there is a live update happening this year?

If not- then feel free to have this thread as the one stop shop for any news and of course the standard issue BS that comes with it. ;)

If we get someone, whoever it is, I'm sure we can rely on you to be amoung the first to label them a hack Krusty.
 
First bit of news - THE WESTERN Bulldogs will use their first round draft pick in order to secure the services of ruck prospect Ayce Cordy.

The young tall, who was eligible to be claimed by the Dogs under the father-son rule, will cost the club selection No.14 in the NAB AFL Draft after St Kilda offered its first round draft pick of 13 for the former Geelong Falcon.

Under new father-son drafting rules, rival clubs have the opportunity to bid for a nominated player, with the original club then required to use its next highest selection to claim him.

Saw that one, wonder if the kid was a potential first rounder anyway? I saw teh Aints bid pick 13 thus forcing the hand of the Dogs.

The bidding system doesn't seem to be a bad way of going about it

it suggests the dogs thought he was top 5 material.
So i would be tipping we are not going to go for a young ruck prospect round 1, since we should have offered pick 8, just to test the waters. ;)

Yes, certainly was going to be 1st rounder regardless.

Quite obviously the Saints thought so anyway or they would not have bidded.

thanks. Thought he musta been 1st round material, but after our illustrious years at the trade table you can never discount the 'keeping them honest' red herring bid ;) :rolleyes:

edit: thinking along the same lines eh cogga :D
 
Paul Wheatley - Dees to go to the Swans for the Swans second round draft pick.

Looks like the Swans arent going to deviate away from their usual "rebuild". ;)

re: bidding system, i wouldve thought that offering a higher pick (saints 13) would've won out?

Nup, apart from the fact the "father-son" player should still get the advantage in the bidding, that would be flawed system because that would have the Saints offering pick 13 and the Dogs being unable to do anything about it since they dont have a higher pick.

Cogga, the AFL site ususally runs trade tracker but thats not until Wednesday or Thursday at the earliest once trades start getting done. I'd expect the AFL will have it up later in the week.

And knowing us, if we had have "kept them honest" instead of the Saints doing it, we'd have a disgruntled Ayce Cordy at pick 8 shuffling down to Punt Road next preseason and we didnt get the actual player wanted at pick 8. :D :o

And if the Bulldogs wanted him, which they did, it wouldnt have mattered to them if we threw up an earlier first rounder because they still get him at pick 14 regardless if they want him.

Haven't read all the ins and outs of the system, but had a sneaking suspicion that was the case. :thumbsu:
 
ok dudes, sorry for the furffy about Thompson. I should have known better than to check out the BF main board.

The latest trade news is that JACK SHIT happened on day 1.
Reckon this BS trade week is just about on its last legs too. Why a whole week?
I mean, most clubs have been talking to prospects. Most clubs who have the prospects on their lists, know who wants them.
So cut the ****er down to 2 days and be done with the ****ing BS ********s....I mean FFS TW was overseas on a holiday last year, thats how interested he was in "what may come up". ....;)

Got a bit of that 'standard issue BS' in today that's for sure. In agreeance with Cogga though, cut down the rigmarole of 'meeting' to 'discuss' and 'enquiring' and have a 1 day trading fest where all the clubs meet at a venue and trade ala the stock market floor of many moons ago :D
 
Couldn't happen in one day. It's not just up to the two clubs, the players, managers etc have to be brought in to the process. Logistics not a reality for a one dayer.
 
In todays age : Tigers have put Pettifer, Polo, Oakley Nichols and Meyer on the trade table.
Bulldogs and Port interested in Schultz.
Tigers frontrunners for Thomson.
Tigers interested in Jamar.
 
Todays HUN:
Thomson Trade Close
Port Adelaide wants Richmond and North Melbourne to put offers of a third-round draft pick for midfielder Adam Thomson in writing by noon today.

And the door is open for two other Victorian-based clubs--Presumably Melbourne and Essendon, which have third-round draft picks ahead of the Tigers and Kangaroos--to trump the frontrunners for the 22-year-old.

"It's OK, it is what the market says," Port football operations manager Peter Rhode said of the offers for Thomson.

Tigers Want Seaby
Richmond will talk to West Coast over the coming days to try to hammer out a deal for premiership ruckman Mark Seaby.

While the Tigers were stunned as everyone yesterday when North Melbourne put young ruckman Hamish McIntosh on the trade table, they remain keen on Seaby.

The Tigers' second round draft pick, No.26, will be key to any deal, although the Eagles may seek more for the 24-year-old, who has played 97 games.
