So if Shuey goes to the club and says "Look, I'm sorry about this but it's been really hard for my family after my sister died, and I love the club but I really think I need to go back to Melbourne and be with them" and we trade him to Essendon for pick 8 and change - your measured response will be to attempt to procure a hitman to take the life of our premiership coach and two-time premiership captain, and the life of another person whose name you don't even know?
Sounds reasonable.
1514: Martin Smith says: Plenty are asking about any news from West Coast. We have heard nothing as yet about players coming in, but both McKinley and Spangher have been linked to a move east. Spangher to Carlton for a third-round pick and McKinley to North or Carlton for a fourth-round pick.
Surely thats the wrong way around

Just my thoughts and what I think we should do this trade week.
If we want to secure Josh Hill maybe we could do a straight swap for Mckinley or Spangher + 62. Definitely pick 45 if the dogs accept that, pick 28 would be over-paying though.
Apparently Mckinley wants to go to Carlton or North Melbourne. If we trade him to Carlton then maybe we could strike a deal with us trading Mckinley + 26/28 for Carlton's pick 18, or trade him in return for Carlton's pick 37. But if he wants to go to North Melbourne, then a straight swap for their pick 36 would be fair.
As for Spangher, maybe we could strike a deal with dogs for Josh Hill, like the one mentioned above. Afterall they have just lost Everitt, Spangher would be a good replacement. If he wants to go to Carlton, Spangher + 45 for Carlton's pick 37 would be fair.
Then, with Spangher and Mckinley both interested in joining Carlton, maybe we could trade both of them + pick 28 for Carltons pick 18.
Another idea I had was a three way deal. Mckinley to Geelong, Djerkurra to WB, Hill to WC.
Then if we want to secure Andrew Krakouer's services, I would hope pick 45 would be enough, but with Collingwood apparently offering GC their first rounder for Krakouer and Ceglar (?), maybe we could offer our pick 26 for the same deal, which I think could work with Krakouer wanting to stay in WA. This way we'll also secure a young ruckman, who'll hopefully be ready once Cox retires.
This would be my ultimate (reasonably realistic result):
Spangher + Mckinley + 28 to Carlton for Pick 18.
Pick 26 to Suns for Krakouer + Ceglar.
Pick 45 to WB for Josh Hill.
This would mean we gain Pick 18, Krakouer, Ceglar, Hill.
And lose Pick 26, Pick 28, Pick 45, Spangher, Mckinley.
So we'd go into the draft with Pick 4 (Heppell or Gaff) , Pick 18 (Lamb or Darling) and Pick 62 (Brennan). Then with our PSD pick we can select whoever, and we can upgrade Stevenson to the main list. Whilst delisting 2 of Nicoski, Bones or Hansen.
I personally think this would be a great result for us
i like your thinking this would be a brilliant result for us
Pfft we deserve more than that for them.
Lucky Hansen's not up for trade
Teams don't have Round 17 picks to offer up, so Hansen's safe.
Hopefully we trade him for a very small pick upgrade or a late pick we wont use anyway. That way we get rid of him, and free up some list space. Maybe GC would be interested in him as a short term forward option? Maybe we'd be able to trade pick 28 + Hansen for GC's pick 27?
But has been for weeks. Something needs to be decided.
Maybe I'll just go vomit since not much seems to be working for WC during trade week.
Hopefully we here something from our staff today, do we even have anyone over there at the moment? who is in charge of our recruiting now?
Hopefully we can get Josh Hill, it would be a disgrace if we didn't go for him.

Seems to be a bit of a bidding war on Hill - he'd be a handy addition - but with a number of clubs supposedly interested - no point paying overs!

Yeah. Need to upgrade our third round into a second round. We don't need picks past 50.
Well yeah if we don't even try, i'm sure we will since we are being linked to him. It's not like we have his type of player currently in our squad.
mckinley and spangher for a 4th and 3rd round pick respectively... not very exciting.
Doesnt look like we will bring in any players either. Just another 4 or 5 kids through the draft and 3 rookies.
