Which would you prefer?

Let's say we take a Rosa and pick 16 or a freo player and a pick would it be realistic and a good move to make a strong big for Bradshaw?

No Bradshaw is 28. What's the point of trading a key forward just to get a different key forward. We can afford to trade Tarrant because we have good Key forward depth.

Yes Murray, I think as each hour passes I'm warming to the idea of trading Tarrant because we're potentially going to have two top 10 (at least first round) draft picks plus a GOOD young player.

Polak I wouldn't take simply because he's a headcase. Where would we play him? CHF when Rocca (with a pre-season) will be pushing for it? FF with Rusling coming out of there? Back-up CHF with Travis Cloke hopefully improving too?

Just want to point out that Polak is hopeless as a forward; he simply can't kick set shots. He is a defender. A brilliant and courageous mark. That is his strength.

And you do need young tall defenders.

Sure enough he's 27 and what not but what we have lacked is a forward who is a consistent goal kicker and i think Bradshaw whenever he has ventured forward kicks his 3 or 4+ week in week out and even if do have the forward depth that you say we do then Bradshaw is flexible enough to play either end of the field i don't know i thought he's be really really handy to have!

TARRANT HAS A YEAR TO RUN ON HIS CONTRACT, yet his name is still being mentioned - go figure eh?

Rosa re-signed less then a month ago

 

[Murray]

OK. so I am really bored at work. thought i would come up with a HYPERTHETICAL complex trade. just interesting to see how some of the rumoured players to be traded could get to their destination. note: i may have screwed up some of the draft pick numbers, was just going off the top of my head:

Coll trade tarrant to Freo
Coll trade Jason Cloke and pick #44 to Essendon
Coll trade pick #28 to Richmond
Ess trade Solomon and pick #52 to Freo
Freo trade Polak, pick #13 and pick #30 to Rich
Rich trade Shane Tuck, pick # 8, pick #26 and pick #42 to Coll

in summary:

Coll recieve: Shane Tuck, pick #8, pick #26, pick #42
Coll lose: Tarrant, Jason Cloke, pick #28, pick #44
Ess recieve: Jason Cloke, pick #44
Ess lose: Solomon, pick #52
Freo recieve: Tarrant, Solomon, pick #52
Freo lose: Polak, pick #13, pick #30
Rich recieve: Polak, pick # 13, pick # 28, pick # 30
Rich lose: Shane Tuck, pick #8, pick #26, pick #42

I think this is pretty fair all round.

Coll would recieve pick 8 and tuck for taz and cloke, while upgrading our 2nd and 3rd round picks.

Richmond would slightly downgrade their 1st and 2nd pick, swap their 3rd round pick for a considerably better 2nd round pick, lose tuck, but gain polak.

Freo would swap their first pick and polak effectively for taz, while only downgrading their (late-ish) 2nd round pick for an early fourth round pick for solomon.

Essendon would swap solomon for cloke, while upgrading their 4th round pick for a 3rd round pick.



We are nearly the losers here. but i would do it. especially if JClo wants out and taz is leaning towards leaving. i rate tuck as a good in and under mid.

Why do you make it so ferking complicated.
Can't clubs just do a single trade in your world.

How many multi club deals are there?
Answer: Very few

If we can get pick 8 from Rich/Freo then I say go for it. Pick 8 and 10 in this draft is very valuable.

Yep, it would be a very good position to be in

 

[Armageddon]

Pick 16 and Waters. Not so keen on Rosa.
I’d consider some sort of package deal for pick 13, Polak and Medhurst for Tarrant, Lockyer and a later pick.

Waters is too good a player to be involved with a first rounder. I think we would have to offer our 2nd rounder to get Waters as well but even then apparently Waters is one of Woosha's favourites so I'd doubt it.

 

[Lonie_from_50]

The Herald Sun had today that he could be traded for Freo's first pick and Schammer.

Be a good one, however won't happen. Schammer is one of those untouchables at Freo, despite the bronx cheers.

 

[pies4eva]

to get another pick in the top 10 could prove to be a very very valuable asset which i would give up for tarrant right now in the blink of an eye imo.

 

[Magpie_Babe]

I want Tarrant to stay. fullstop! No trades! No deals! No Multiclub deals! Just one club. Its Black and White... pun totally intended!

I hate this week!

 

[Dj Chriss]

il take pick 8, two picks in the top 10 of supposedly the best draft ever, would be stupid not too

 

[Vinnie Vegas]

I'd prefer Pick #8 - Rosa has average-at-best footskills, and that's not what we need.

He's basically the same player as Pendlebury, with less class.
