Trade hypotheticals

[thetradesman]

This really is my favourite part of the footy year

Why?

 

[bloke_]

Anyone interested in Clarke from Fremantle? Really relished the number 1 ruck role last year but is pretty useless as a resting ruck up forward. Fremantle probably wouldn't trade him but I consider him first round talent. Any takers?

 

[Membling]

Or you could even say that stocking up on talent at the start was a cunning plan to later trade some for high picks to spread out their age profile for the long term.

 

[pinot]

Good or bad?

You are expecting a club to give up one of their best players + first round pick which can trade for a superstar for min five years instead trade it for an 18yo that has played five games, really now??

Yes really, most other opposition supporters will think its fair.

Carlton bias.

Based on what type of substance you overconsume

 

[De Iulio2Wiggins]

Why?

Really? Gibbs and pick 6 for Boyd? Why don't we throw in Murphy as a sweetener?

Boyd's kicked 19 goals from 12 NEAFL games this year. Jaksch is playing much better footy, why would we bother chasing Boyd, just because of draft hype?

Gibbs is very good, but he struggles to be in the top 10 mids in the game and your first pick?

For a guy who could be the next Jono Brown?

Gibbs + pick 6 for someone like Fyfe not Boyd...

But he is not Jono Brown, got it?? Just because the system had him best player at his age 12 months ago doesn't mean that value is maintained constant 12 months later. Is this the Richmond rulebook for trading success?

He could be? Has shown some great glimpses.

What has this got to do with Richmond?

 

[pinot]

You said opposition supporters think this is fair I assume you mean Richmond supporters think this is fair.

While I don't agree with the pot shots at Richmond, using Richmond is a good comparison.

You're likely to have pick 10 or thereabouts this year. Would you trade Cotchin + pick 10 for Boyd? Considering Cotchin would struggle to be ahead of Dangerfield, Rockliff, Pendlebury, Beams, Watson, Fyfe, Selwood, Ablett, Mitchell, Kennedy?

You're severely overrating Boyd. To say 'Carlton bias' is an absolute joke. Boyd could be anything - from Jono Brown, to a decent player who had way too much hype over him. Better to have a proven quality performer and a player with potential, than just a player with potential.

 

[thetradesman]

Just FYI, I think it's a fair deal

Fair enough I reckon.

I wanna see more 3 way trades in this thread.

Are these tigers supporters?

 

[SterlingArcher]

Melbourne gain - Dylan Shiel

Carlton gain - Jacsch

GWS gain - pick 4, pick 6?

This is far more realistic - still not sure GWS would be happy with it though.

Sorry to double-team you, but Gibbs is FINALLY showing something approaching elite and consistent footy, after five years of mediocrity (for a hyped draft pick) and some cameo performances.

Jaksch will be much cheaper. Trading heavily for Boyd isn't what Carlton need to do.

A) is Gibbs you're captain?

B) I think Cotchin is a better player then and Gibbs and is starting to become a good leader.

What do you think GWS would take for Jaksch?

 

[pinot]

No chance is Jaksch worth top 10 pick.

Docherty was pick 12 that slipped through to pick 33 in trade. I am sure our recruitment department will maintain their good form of past two years.
Boyd wants to leave as Docherty did.

I think people are overrating Shiel or under rating this draft.

Would be very interested, but wouldn't give up pick 10.

And our second is way unders.

Would you take Clarke and our first (16-18) for 10 and maybe a sweetener? Your second?

I would do Clarke + 18 for 10 + third.

Win/win deal, we need a ruck bad and Clarke is still relatively young.

I think he will be a great ruckman, as long as he isn't relied upon to play as a tall forward too often. When he played sole ruck last year he looked a million bucks. Sandi spoiled the party in a way
