Rumour Thread

[Breakthelines]

I think that our structure will rely on having both Tippett and Reid in it post Goodes.

No way would we give you Reid and then part pay his contract for you.

It' only a rumour dude. Neither of us know what will happen....it is just one of a number of possibilities.

 

[Membling]

Hey, we gave you Nick Davis......you ******* owe us!

Rocca, Licuria, Jolly... more than even

I know, just a bit steep to believe. Parker is far more realistic

 

[HFF]

Gee, I hope the club does nothing silly now.

We have worked really hard to put ourselves in this enviable position.

Just take our picks to the draft.

 

[lenny20]

Rocca, Licuria, Jolly... more than even

Davis, Schauble, Shaw, Williams - we're still one short down here. Send him down.

I guess the thing is that our 3 1st round draft picks may only be worth pick 30+ from previous drafts. If Hine doesnt rate this years crop of young player we are wasting our time taking them if we can add experience, mature bodies and proven footballers to our list that make an immediate impact.

I'm happy to keep all 17, 18 + 20 if Hine see's value there but otherwise I say blow it!

Good point i didnt think about the strength of the draft when i wrote that. Completely agree to invest in proven footballers if Hine doesn't rate the draft 100%. For me to trade our picks they have to be for a proven footballer otherwise we could end up with Cam Wood 2.0. Do you see us taking any mature ages in the rookie draft? they have proven to be quite useful for other teams.

So you're saying you wouldn't trade picks 19 & 21 for Sam Reid? Hypothetically..

So you're saying you wouldn't trade picks 19 & 21 for Sam Reid? Hypothetically..

50/50, honestly. This draft could have some really good players sliding down to our picks and you'd want to maximise the top end picks you have with Hine's strike rate.

 

[Membling]

Davis, Schauble, Shaw, Williams - we're still one short down here. Send him down.

Orchard, even stephen.

Sam Reid- most certainly.

Luke Parker- absolutely not.

Which is why I urge the club to tread carefully and not do anything silly.

This draft isn't that great....Hine may we value in someone like Reid ahead of picks in the late teens and early 20's. I'd take him in a heart beat.

 

[Buena]

Is this interest in Wood legit?? Christmas is still 2 months away...

 

[NT.Thunder]

Sam Reid- most certainly.

Luke Parker- absolutely not.

Luke Parker isn't worth 2 1st round picks, that has to be a given, doesnt it!

Reid certainly would provide us with an enviable structure........He does look like a quality KPF.

And robby ahmat!

I'd rather Nick Smith.
I trade 19 or 21 for him.

 

[HFF]

Luke Parker isn't worth 2 1st round picks, that has to be a given, doesnt it!

Reid certainly would provide us with an enviable structure........He does look like a quality KPF.

Absolutely on both counts.

The only way I can see us trading 2 first rounders would be for a big player.

Sam Reid would be amazing.

Luke Parker I would not be interested in, period.

 

[Membling]

And robby ahmat!

Kinnear

 

[HFF]

I'd rather Nick Smith.
I trade 19 or 21 for him.

Surely you are joking?

His worth is a 3rd rounder. 2nd round at absolute best.

Doubtful you'd get near Reid with picks 17 and 19. Too much invested in him now, in 5 years you can have a crack if we havent resigned him

The guy killed Rioli in that grand final. He's better than Parker.

 

[TradeDraft]

whats this about Richmond enquiring about Cameron Wood? lol. Please be true

Where did you hear that?

 

[HFF]

It's just all speculation anyway. I'm not reading too much into it.

However, 2 first rounders for Reid would be pretty good compo IMO.

The guy killed Rioli in that grand final. He's better than Parker.

That does not mean he justifies a first round selection.

He is a decent player but his talent level does not scream out "first rounder" for mine.

Would be a massive fail if we traded a first rounder for him.

 

[juzzo]

Knightmare has us taking Vlastuin, Garlett and Membrey with our picks. Obviously unlikely it will play out like that but if we're in line to get 3 players of that quality I think we should sit tight.

 

[sr36]

Orchard, even stephen.

We gave you Orchard before you gave him back, so he doesn't count. Just give us Sam Reid, you know it's fair.

Richmond have this afternoon inquired about Cameron Wood and Trent West as they seek to add depth in their ruck department.

Cameron Wood's time at the pies looks over, whilst the recruitment of Hamih McIntosh pushes west to the side.
