Live Event 2018 Trade Period

[Allikat]

Figured I'd make a new thread for all things trade week as all the news is getting spread in all the threads and it's getting confusing. (obviously new players and huge news can get their own threads).

I'm surprised how much action has happened so far. I'm so used to it being 9 days of trade speculation and like 1 day of actual trades.

Just listened to the Belly trade interview this bloke will take us places very professional

 

[jerms]

Lynch compo confirmed at pick 3. So we now officially hold pick 6.

I think it is pick 6. 5 if we trade Neale with Brissy

 

[Walshy1]

Going to be a really important trade period, from what I've heard from Rosich and Belly it looks like we will be in good hands

Yes. F*ck, sorry, it's been one of those days...

Noble on Neale:
"Amicable discussions. We waned to know where they were coming from. We have homework to do with therm. We’ll have constant meetings and catch-ups"

Wonder what the homework is.......

Maybe they must take Sutty, Apeness and Jones as steak knives.......

Could be;

• chats with the likes of Starcevich and Rich.
• getting clear about what WB want from them for Adams.
• sacking whoever confirmed Lincoln before they had got the Neale deal sealed.

**** me I'm excited for this week.

Cant wait to see how this plays out and I'm confident in Belly and Steve

I can't wait either, but I can pretty much guarantee posters on here will bag Rosich and Bell whatever happens.

Where's this Belly vs Bell come from?

 

[poshman]

Link please? He should at the very least bring a lot of polish to the position. With his in front of the camera experience.

 

[mightymouse75]

Bell is the messiah. His deep love for the freo footy club will bring an unmatched passion.

If all goes as it looks like it's going we add talent to our forward line (Hogan, Lobb) and lose talent in our midfield (Neale).

Hopefully we should retain either pick 5 or 6 for this year's draft.

Do we look to further increase the talent in our forward line (Rankine) or set up our future midfield (B Smith)?

If we get Smith our future midfield has 3 top five picks in it (Brayshaw - All rounder, Cerra - Class, Smith - Explosive)

+ Fyfe, Blakely, Conca, Tucker, Hill x2, Langdon)

Get Rankine.... and our future forwardline looks good and is almost complete.

Walters - Hogan - xxxxx
Rankine - Cox - Lobb


Thoughts?

My preferred is that in the shake down we end up with 2 x later first round picks that get us any two of Hately, Clark and Hill. I realise that means forgoing elite talent, but those three all hit weak areas for us, and I expect them to be very good players, and also low risk selections.

 

[Deveraux]

I don't think we can discount coming out of this trade period with Lobb & Hogan and no top 10 picks left.

 

[Joao]

I'll be wanting to punch on if that happens.

 

[Bastyy]

how would we feel about Neale for 5 and Rich?

 

[Deathly]

how would we feel about Neale for 5 and Rich?

Would rather take 25 and draft a WA kid.

 

[armpit]

Why do want the guy with fork lift arms? We won that trade battle years ago. We want players with reach.

 

[Joao]

how would we feel about Neale for 5 and Rich?

I'd take rich as the steak knives (ie our Crisp). They can GAGF including him as something substantial. Pretty sure he is on a mozza too.

 

[Taylor]

The Beams deal would have looked very different if clubs were able to trade future picks.

 

[Dale147]

No Rich’s, he’s outside of our age limit anyway. Same age as S Hill.

 

[Joao]

No Rich’s, he’s outside of our age limit anyway. Same age as S Hill.

He is a decent steak knife though. Means we can definitely move Shilly back to the middle/wing. As you say they are the same age.

Would give us 3 legitimate long accurate kicks from the backline.

 

[SHill Shall]

We give Neale for pick 5 and 23.

We get Lobb and pick 14 for pick 6.

Thoughts?

Would get myself happy with that either way!
