Trades - hypotheticals

[/B]Give me David Mundy in the psd, he wants back to melbourne and can use the ball. Something we desperatley need. Put a price on his head and get him connells!!!!!!!!!!!!

How many players are you planning on picking with your first PSD pick? Price or no price, Mundy wouldn't be there for your second pick if you take Warnock with your first. Sadly for Melbourne, if you want some decent players, you aren't just going to be given them all for nothing.

Adam Thomson from Port

would you take Kayne pettifer up until this year , had kicked 30+ in ea of last 3 seasons..only 26

Another hypothetical:

Would we/Port/Eagles be happy with this 3-way deal?

Dees
Lose: Jamar and pick 17
Gain: D Pearce and Port's 3rd round pick

Port
Lose: Pick 4 and their 3rd rounder
Gain: Kerr and Jamar

Eagles
Lose: Kerr
Gain: Pick 4 and pick 17

I am pretty keen on Pearce from Port Adelaide. I know we'd have to give a fair bit up to get him, but he is still young (22) and gives us what we lack: class, pace and finishing skills. If we get Warnock in the PSD, I can live without Jamar as Warnock's probably his equal but a younger and more exciting version of the big Russian. A third round pick could be used to draft either another young ruckman or whatever best was left.

Port need a ruckman to back-up Lade (maybe one year left) and Brogan and Jamar's coming off his best season and is from SA. They'd also get Kerr, one of the best midfielders in the comp when firing.

Eagles probably get less than they'd want for Kerr, but with one year left on his contract he could walk for nothing next year if he wanted to screw the club over. The Eagles get pick 4 and 17, meaning they'd have picks 2, 4, 17 and 18 (I think) in what is described as one of the richest drafts in history.

Thoughts?

Who would be interested?

Possibly a Collingwood, Richmond, Carlton...

Add Essendon onto the list mate. Am very happy to secure the services of a talented, young player.

@ The Dr.

Your trade is pretty reasonable, but I don't know if Port would give up pick 4, a 3rd rounder and Pierce in order to attain Jamar and Kerr.

If they need to push the deal through, I get the feeling WCE would settle with a top 5 pick alone for Kerr.

Thats why the thread headline is trades - hypotheticals numb nuts.

Who said we are going to to get warnock?, he may stay or we may trade for him.
If we traded for warnock or he stayed then that would leave the door open for mundy in the psd draft.
Dont get defensive chook, i want to take certain players from your team just like i do with any other. We need help from all quarters it isnt as much of a freo binge as you would think.

I don't care about you targetting Freo players - if they think playing at Melbourne is going to be better than at Freo then I wish them luck. I'm just saying you can only get one player with one draft pick. (and I think there's plenty of posts on this board to suggest that many on here assume Warnock is a lock for your PSD pick 1)

I'd hope you're not just going after Freo people anyway - not exactly a high bar you're setting for yourselves is it?

You're probably right on the first note there mate. Maybe we'll chuck in our fifth rounder as well or something.

Anyway, i just enjoy the build up to trade week, hell, it's the only exciting part of being a Dees supporter for a long while (excluding our wins and the debt demolition.

Agreed, this time of year is very entertaining

With Prismall injuried his knee, I don't think he is worth a punt. Comments?

he wasnt worth a punt even before he did his knee, just a average player who looks better in a class team.

A list of geelong players i wouldnt touch if offered for trade:

- Prismall
- Mackie
- Brynes
- Kelly
- Lonergon

All especially kelly could be offered by the cats at the end of the year to clear some cap room. I would be filthy if melbourne got any of them, they wouldnt get a kick or in mackies (think whealtley and a 10m shorter kick) case would get a bagged kicked on him every week if they played for melbourne.

I agree with the vast majority of this post.

I wouldn't have considered Prismall prior to the injury either. I think you may be a bit harsh on Mackie, although he isn't accountable he does have some ability. Byrnes, Kelly and Lonergan aren't players I would be keen on dealing for either.
