[dogs105]

I'd be dancing.

You should be

 

[PyroCrow]

Needs hopefully he takes No.3 because he reminds me a bit of Jarman

 

[whitey_1975]

No you didn't, I did.

For the number Vader mentioned I assume? Maybe Sydeny get Dmac

This trade period?

I will find out.. sorry i am not 100 % on the i would have thought this one.

 

[Emperoar]

Oh for f**ks sake. Am I seriously now going to have to photoshop Parker into a Crows guernsey. Faaark.

I did Betts and Podsiadly.. You got it man #wephotoshopasone

Considering we kicked 27.9 against Essendon I honestly see us kicking 30 with Menzel lol.
Literally if our forward line plays the team game and is not too selfish it will absolutely annihilate sub par defenses.

Don't forget Menzel will most likely be taking the 2nd best small defender and Cameron the 3rd best.
Cameron would eat them for breakfast every day of the week, Menzel the same. Luke Brown couldn't even contain Menzel.

Totally, Brodie Smith couldn't handle Menz either, then Sando put Pods on him...

When does the trade period podcast come out?
WFL NikkiNoo feenix67 ??

 

[hey shorty]

Sydney would be utterly mad to get rid of a guy like that. He ain't going anywhere IMO unless he's given them word of looking to explore free agency next year.

His manager said 2 weeks ago he'll sign for Sydney by Christmas, Ned Guy is one I'd take on his word.

 

[Jeffcrowe]

I would fight tooth and nail for pick 9. That is last resort stuff.

Pick 9 won't get parker , there would need to be a sweetener

Parker the equal of treloar at least

 

[Donkey Magoo]

Big Footy where the thousand rumors eminate ....only takes one post and it becomes poison ivy

Exactly.
I have also noticed that Redhorse hasn't rulled out GAJ!!

 

[Glenny83]

Does Redhorse have credibility?

more than you and me it seems

 

[Scorpus]

Luke Parker is not a free agent next year

 

[Alex99]

Do you know what I'm loving?

none of the players we are bringing in are over 23. No 28 year old quick fixes. We have a long term look and everyone we have brought in, can play 150 games or more.

That's brilliant IMO.

Ahhh another fun off-season game - guernsey number changes.

Give M Crouch #3. Next to his brother.

Menzel can have #1.

 

[TheLeftFist8]

Currently pick 13 would be overs for him, hopefully that ship has sailed, wrong age demographic now too??

I personally agree with you, just a rumour.

We would need a pick in return.

The decision to go for Menzel makes the list mathematics even more complicated. Assuming the Menzel/Kerridge deal goes ahead as reported, the picture will be as follows:

OUT
Reilly (ret), JPod (ret), Siggins (ret), Martin (delisted), Dangerfield (traded), Kerridge (traded)

I'm also assuming that Wright will be delisted, given that we're desperately short of list space and he remains uncontracted.

Total List Vacancies = 7

IN
Menzel (trade), Seedsman (trade), Hampton (trade), Gore (trade)
We are also expecting to upgrade ROB and Kelly (more on this shortly).

Total List Positions Required = 6

We currently have picks 9, 13, 68, 86.

The number of permutations are beginning to dwindle at this point in time.

What we do know is this:

• Excluding the rookie upgrades, we have 3 list vacancies available.
  
• All clubs must make a minimum of 3 draft selections at the National Draft. Rookie upgrades count towards the total.
• With selections #9, #13, #68 (and #86), it is certain that at least one rookie will be upgraded. The alternative is to use #68 as a live selection.
• That leaves 2 vacancies, with #9, #13 and a rookie upgrade to do it. There are a number of options here...
  • Delist/Trade another player, thereby creating a 3rd vacancy (and possibly another pick to be swapped).
  • Use picks #9 & #13, but only upgrade one of the rookies.
  • Use pick #13 to upgrade the 2nd rookie (highly unlikely).

If redhorse is correct, and there is another player on the cards, the maths becomes even more difficult.

• Trading for a "big fish" would almost certainly result in us losing one of the 1st round selections.
  
• We would have 5 players coming "in", but only 7 going "out", leaving us unable to reach the minimum 3 draft selections. We would have to create another list vacancy, by trading or delisting another player.
  
• We would have no choice but to upgrade both rookies, just to reach our quota of 3 draft selections.

Bye bye your beloved

What's the record thread size for this board?

Could be challenging it by the end of the trade period if some bombs drop over the next few days

no, a thread about some player called dangerfield 43 000 posts

I personally agree with you, just a rumour.

We would need a pick in return.

That pick would be #1

 

[TheLeftFist8]

Taken me two hours to catch up. Read redhorse half an hour ago and have been hoping he'd spill before I got to the end... No redhorse yet

Parker: 9 or 13 with CEY and someone else?

Always insert Mackay…he can replace Jetta.

And the Tippett one OMG

 

[Emperoar]

So the club is trading in players in sequence that just get bigger and bigger. Redtease who is this whale!? Someone give the man a new keyboard!!

 

[pjcrows]

Scenario (no mail, just a scenario) - Fremantle need a first round pick to land McCarthy. They put Neale on the table for Pick 9.

Who takes it?

 

[Danoz]

For the number Vader mentioned I assume? Maybe Sydeny get Dmac

What number is that?

 

[arsene wenger1]

dont know bout anyone else but if Carlton are happy to trade him that's a good enough sign for me to say he's gonna be a star
