List Mgmt. 2016 Trade/FA Thread 2.0: Ahern (pg168); Hrovat (pg252); Williams (pg270)

[Flawed Genius]

Hamling requests a trade to Fremantle.

 

[King Hansen]

Hopefully get a ready to go quality player next week.

Not sure i'm that excited about obtaining GWS scraps, but it's probably better than nothing.

A guy I know who played TAC Cup in Ahern's draft year said Ahern was the best player in his opinion. Better than Brayshaw, Petracca, De Goey & Duggan etc. Just needs to get his body right.

 

[tiltraise]

That ruins our chances of getting Taranto. Wouldn't be stoked with that.

Gunna need a top 6 pick for him methinks.

 

[tiltraise]

11 for Ahern and 15

I like to see us get pick 60 with that.

 

[kool kangas]

how l love this silly season

 

[Skiparoo]

I have a feeling the trade for Ahern and the other player will be for a pick in next year's draft. GWS will probably need points for the next lot of academy kids coming through.

Yeah no doubt GWS want 2017 picks.

Which leads me to this option-

In: 15, 31, 37 + Ahern
Out : 11, 69 + 2017 2R

 

[LuvtheKangas]

Man, you just love your 28-32 sweet spot in this year's draft.

 

[Shinboner roo]

Future second for ahern/pickett
Hansen straight swap for hrovat there light on for backs or
32 for hrovat and 40
We will still have 11 32 or 40 33 69 and bring in pickett ahern and the rat.
Plus what ever we get for black/mckenzie/other trades can improve out draft order again

 

[Joshen]

Norths pick 32 + 33 ( 584 + 563 = 1,147)
For GWS pick 15 = 1,112 points. ?

We have quite a few spots to fill on the list. I'd be reluctant to diminish our number of picks.

 

[kingcarey18]

If our pick 11 is involved in any way with the ahern trade we would be better off hiring Donald trump to do our recruiting

He's at Richmond making it great again or some nonsense.

I like it from our point of view. Similar to what we did last year.

 

[Daniltchenko You Beauty]

I'm probably forgetting them but have we had any ACL injuries in recent years aside from Nielson?

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

From the saints board, they are absolutely dreaming:

"If the proposed GWS-North trade goes through - Ahern & 15 for 11 - I'd be keen to grab that pick 15 off North."

"Longer & pick 23 for picks 15 & 33?
More like Longer and 36 for 15 and 33. That's IF they trade Goldy."

 

[kingcarey18]

there is more chance ahern never plays an AFL game than goes on to be a star and people are throwing up pick 11 when this years draft is a good one .......what is going on

Based on what?

It's a swap of picks 11 and 15.

 

[tiltraise]

Yeah I do lol sorry cant resist anything that gives us picks in that range :/

Nah you're on the money. Higgins doing his medial is probably the closest we've had to one

 

[ViperR1]

OK well that sounds good then.

If such a gun why don't GWS want to keep him? Surely can't just be because he is injured.

 

[Daniltchenko You Beauty]

Good sign and good selling point for Ahern. I know Saunders is big on his injury prevention. Nielson probably hadn't done enough after half a year at the club.

11 just isnt a good spot to pick from considering what our list needs are.

Thus peeps are looking to move forward or backward a little in the order from there.

The problem with going forward is that it costs a lot to move up and we dont have a lot of currency thus most are looking to move backwards and gain some.

 

[kingcarey18]

Based on what?

Based on 2 knee reconstructions

 

[Harris 10]

Based on 2 knee reconstructions

So you don't think he'll ever play a game?
