WC don't need a Darling though.. we need midfielders. I'd prefer ponying up 10 and Darling for Beams - but he doesn't want to come to us
If the top 4 are Petracca, McCartin, Wright and Brayshaw/Lever/Durden it's not getting you anything though really.Reading a number of reports - the top 4 are supposedly a cut above the rest
If that holds true than hopefully we shake out a Bontompelli/Wines etc.
These are all hypotheticals based on "FIFA manager values" completely ignoring that Darling has recently become engaged and has both families in Perth.
If the top 4 are Petracca, McCartin, Wright and Brayshaw/Lever/Durden it's not getting you anything though really.
Petracca will likely be gone by 4. McCartin is pretty much Darling but more questions so no benefit there. Wrights a big ruck/fwd prospect, that's not helping you. Lever and Durden are KPD, not a need. Brayshaw is more of the workman like midfielder who hopefully (if the dees get him) has upside but isn't really pacy, super classy or that huge body dominant clearance type. With Selwood, Masten, Shuey, Sheed etc I don't think he's what you'd be looking for.
If pick 4 got you the class pacy midfielder you need to reinvigorate your midfield then I'd be all for it. Darling's a great player but he's not an untradeable type when you've got some other good fwd options. But this years pick 4 seems not the right option at all for West Coast.

Unless Darling comes to Brisbane no Deal
Food for thought
Lions trade Merrett to north for grima and second or third round pick?
4 team trade
Western Bulldogs
Trade- Liam Jones and Shaun Higgins to Carlton
1st round pick to Sydney
Sydney
Trade- Lewis Jetta to west coast
Sam reid and Tom Mitchell to bulldogs
West coast
Trade- Sharrod wellingham, Josh hill and callum Sinclair to Sydney
Mitch Brown to Carlton.
Carlton
Trade- Jeff garlett and Zach tuohy to Sydney
Lachie Henderson and 3rd round pick to west coast
(Why would teams do this)
Doggies get a forward they so desperately need and another tough inside midfielder. Both players are young and are more valuable than their first rounder.
Sydney get salary cap space from Tom Mitchell and send reid to a club that is still a couple years away from competing. They lose jetta but gain wellingham who can play inside and on the wing, Josh hill can play medium forward and push up the ground, garlett offers small forward crumbing, tuohy is insurance for malceski and shaw while Sinclair adds depth to ruck stocks. And gain a first rounder.
Carlton get a solid player in Higgins which allows flexibility, Jones can have a chance up forward and mitch brown can slot straight into the backline.
West coast gets outside run in jetta and Henderson can play either forward or back. Playing him forward could allow darling more time up the ground.

GWS 2nd round is a touch overs for Patful at 30... but not much overHow is Patfull worth that much?
Two time BnF winner and holds down a key position.How is Patfull worth that much?
No I'm sure we would throw in a bit more
Brisbane get reamed.

It was a West Coast fan suggesting itYeah, because it is a very suitable trade for West Coast.![]()
Nah forget it no deal rather keep 24 and draft HammelmannJust a bit ?? ahhah

Beams - Lions
Patfull - GWS
Pick 4 and GWS 2nd Round - Pies
Because Patfull wants to go to Sydney so why do two trades when you can just make one simple trade? :sGWS's second rounder is only two picks before Brisbane's. I'm not sure how it benefits the Lions to give up Patfull when they could just offer up effectively the same trade in pick 4 + Brisbane's second rounder, and not get a third party involved.

North: Pick 15toBrisbaneand Greenwood to Collingwwod.
Brisbane: Merret to North and pick 4 to Collingwood.
Collingwood: Beams to Brisbane and Collingwood on forwards pick 4 to North.
All teams are winners.
Collingwood has a ready made in and under gut running midfielder and another 1st round pick at 15.
North has a good strong defender and can then speculate with pick 4 that we get someone decent.
Brisbane has their man.
They are screaming out for a ready made player. 2 draft picks are speculative and 2-3 years away before even knowing if they will be any good. Greenwood would be their 2nd best midfielder behind Pendles and has 7-8 years in him.Brisbane gets Beams for pick 4 and Merrett.
North gets pick 4 and Merrett for pick 15 and Greenwood.
Collingwood gets pick 15 and Greenwood for Beams.
I don't know how Collingwood supporters are going to feel about Greenwood and 15 for Beams given they're ambivalent on picks 4 and 24.

We are giving up a gun for a chance and i repeat a chance that in 2-3 years pick 4 might come good.No chance north get pick 4
