List Mgmt. Trade Week 2016 - Live Thread

[Coaster2012]

This is perfect. We will get an A grade midfielder. God dam it, if only we had NN serving it to him.

He served him in the GF last year...

My Money is swapping Sam Mitchell for Mich Brown as Brown's wife Shae is playing for Collingwood Netball Club next year and a third round pick will sweeten the deal.

BANG

 

[Dark Sharks]

Seriously?

Why?

Strong draft, missing out on potentially adding a 10 year player to our list.

OR add a 34 year old for one season so he can join the boys club on the coaching panel.

Frankly i'm surprised people are so erect by the idea.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Who got locked out of this thread for the week?

Anyone whingeing that West Coast are inactive every trade period

 

[King LeBron]

Mitchell isn't going to be the difference in winning a premiership we're still an a grade mid short

Three, and arguably four (Priddis is up for debate) A-Grade midfielders not enough?

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

What percentage of picks in the 50s become 10-year players? Even in strong drafts?

Hawks could sign Brown for free if they want him.

 

[Suma Magic]

Seriously?

Why?

I'd be ok with it, but if we trade our second best pick in a good draft for a player who we get a year out of I'll be pissed.

 

[Spartan]

The fact that I'm agreeing with a lot of Dark Sharks posts makes me think I've turn from hero to villain.

 

[JackOutback]

We're getting the wrong ****ing Mitchell.

Also, Hagdorn was right.

Jesus wept.

 

[whatis]

So we could potentially have two Brownlow medalists on the list in 2017. Don't like the idea of paying a lot though at 35 next year.

I'd be displeased with 2nd rounder as well.

3rd, not so much.

We aren't giving up our first rounder are we? if its a second rounder, I'm all for it. The influence he could have around the club would be great, it could go a long way in fixing our biggest weakness. The midfield.

 

[Milenko]

If only Crazy Vossy was around to add the Amon Buchanan and Xavier Clarke cherries on top....

 

[galen]

So this Mitchell guy.... has pace? can kick?

 

[Eaglemaniac]

Eaglemaniac

I would have said Priddis..

 

[The Falcon Strike]

Priddis
Shuey
Hutchings
Mitchell
Sheed

You think that stacks up well against Sydney's, Bulldogs or GWS' midfields?
Being a realist but OK...going to win the premiership next year

Hutch wouldn't have a spot with Mitchell playing.

I also think Redden has a lot to offer - just needs some run in his leg. Ruining an entire pre-season with groin/abdominal injuries is going to stuff up your year

 

[The_Eagles]

I would pay 2nd round, 2 years of Mitchell would be awesome to watch in COAST colours .. And that's the real reason we watch footy..also Nic Nat small chance back for finals as a wildcard, we need to roll the dice for Kennedy and Priddis sake

 

[Forward Press]

Frankly i'm surprised people are so erect by the idea.

The odds of getting a 10 year player from pick 50 is quite low.

I mean, there would be a reason that all clubs have passed on that player 49 times before he was selected...

Giving Hawthorn a third rounder for their B+F winner is a f***ing steal no matter how you dice it. 34 years old means nothing when he never relied on his speed and agility to win games for them.

 

[Boohemian]

Mitchell clearly knows how to football. We need people who know how to football among the coaching ranks. If that means he gets a year or two on the list, so be it.

10yr player with pick 51?

Again, I'm erect at not 2017 but beyond. This bloke knows football. His experience and mongrel will add volumes to the WCE organisation.

And boys club? Ok.

BANG

Every time I see someone suggest we trade the FREE AGENT Mitch Brown, I surprise myself on how long I can sigh.

On another note you can really easily see the spanners on this board when they are opposed to having Sam Mitchell with us next season, the man is a star.

 

[liam123]

Glad pick 12 off the table. Maybe eMac to Gold Coast?

 

[RookiePick]

Well, well, well...don't check in for half a day and the thread blows up

I certainly don't want to pay overs for Mitchell but there is some serious upside to him coming over to run around and coach. Even just having one bloke standing in the right spot at stoppages will be a massive plus compared to this years stoppage work.

I think it's also a pretty good slapdown from Simpson to the LeCras' and Mastens of the club in regards to their capacity to help lead the young mids Simpson has drafted in. The Gaff's and Shueys are of the age where they just need to play balls out and focus on extracting their own best performance - leadership in Shuedawgs case is just a pleasant side effect. The senior guys should be doing the extra to help bring the youngsters on and hopefully Sam can do an excellent mentoring role on and off the field.

I think the deal will get done. They usually do when they have been discussed thoroughly in the public domain like this. I suggest Vosso knows exactly what we are giving up for Mitchell already.
