Mega Thread 2018 Trade Period Discussion part 2! (cont. in Part 3 - link in OP)

[Rave Slave]

How do you know that? Is it just posting style or did you see them change names?

(Legit question not having a crack)

Same username haha

 

[El Doederino]

He was outed as Tristant Foeander apparently

Where? How?

All his tweets seem to have been deleted too.

 

[Deaneus!]

Nope, I'm bored with Trade Radio

I'm going to leave it on for a while longer

urgh

 

[Deaneus!]

Woo-boy, Sam McLure, Troy McLure's brother, is coming up soon

I can't wait

 

[Crouch#44]

Remember when you used to post on this board and pretend you were in the know with recruitment, both at the AFC level and with other clubs?

Pepperidge farm remembers

I did once, players left so my news left with it

 

[Eagleboy2011]

Their talking about the GWS cap squeeze and giving players away for free. Is anyone talking AFL investigating how this has come about. Does the AFL not audit clubs re their cap. If it was the AFC we would be totally investigated and punished.

 

[Betts are off]

For better or worse, Ricky Nixon tweets out an outrageous amount of content about draft week?

All obviously taken with a grain of salt, but still surprisingly entertaining!

 

[Deaneus!]

Oooooooh there was a breakfast

Will now Google, "how to stab myself in the ears"

Beams.. will he officially request a trade?

Do yo have to?

Has Lachie Neale officially requested a trade?

Mature conversations

When Damo broke the story... Brisbane said it was news to them

 

[LiquidCrow]

Reid also said in jest that he's looking forward to the S.A boys wanting to come home after 2 years. Was tongue in cheek but just gives the clubs something to think about...

Hope he's joking. Given the trend towards players demanding trades while in contract, we should be in their ear about coming home after one year.

You may remember me from such non-events as "Brad goes to Richmond"...

Wayne is saying it was SOS. I thought it was Reid as they were talking about the high end of S.A talent in the draft at the top.

I like your attitude

And you're exactly right, anyone we want to get back, we should sit them down, explain the draft, and tell them anytime you want to come home, we'll look after you

Bring back Phil Davis

Touted as being $2.5m over their cap. I find it hard to believe you can be so far over for 2019 and under in 2018.

Back-loaded contracts

 

[Eagleboy2011]

Back-loaded contracts

So if backloaded, are GWS paying any difference in their contracts or are they leaving for unders. Also why has the AFC not made a play for any of them at low draft picks.

 

[Golumless]

The talent in this draft is unbelievable
If AFC had Pick 1 on a lone island - Carlton position
I just would really struggle to choose a 1 of
Anyone else think the same ?

Adelaide doesn't. From what we know of this offseason it'd be Lukosius chosen within .1 of a second.

 

[Crowked]

Port warning GC about taking SA boys in the draft.

Pffffttt!!!

The SA boys are 10 times more likely to stay than the Kings.

 

[Deaneus!]

Trade Radio have twigged - Steven May isn't really that good

 

[Drewie11]

Port warning GC about taking SA boys in the draft.

Pffffttt!!!

Does this work in the Crows favour now. Will Gold Coast say stuff Port with those comments and trade pick 2&3 to Adelaide

Who says we haven't? We just may have not been successful.

 

[jenny61_99]

Why?

Who gives a **** about then?

Do you have the ability to make your own mind up or are you just a sheep following everyone else?

People in here constantly fall for the drivel written by these idiots and the result is pages and pages of anger spewed forth. The fact remains, this type of "journalism", is grubby and appeals to the lowest common denominator. It aims purely to get people riled up and angry. There's enough friggen angst in this world without two bit tabloid gutter snipes adding to it.

 

[Golumless]

no, but I would probably do 4 + 28 + 2019 3rd for 8 + 13

I'd be more comfortable without the third pick seeing under no circumstance am I trading next years first. We don't know what happens with NGA and I would say it's rather prudent to prepare for the worst possible outcome there.

No.

If they don’t pick Luko (lock him in) and either Rankine/Rosee/Smith they’re stupid.

Port want GC to leave Rankine for them I reckon.

We need pick 5 to get either Rankine or Rosee.

 

[Mr_Moogle]

I don't understand why Port, a team lacking younger talent, have sold all their draft currency for pick 6. Are they totally insane?

Port warning GC about taking SA boys in the draft.

Pffffttt!!!

There is no guarantee SA boys would return home anyway. If they turn out to be guns, you can bet all the Vic clubs will try to lure them out of GC too.

It would if I were Gold Coast. Really stupid thing to say I felt.
