Certainly was eventually turned a swap of a future first rounder from Crows #9 into #17 Kemp and #20 Philp on top of the free pick for #19 Stocker...

You’re not wrong. I’d happily give up our 1st rounder for him, but Freo would no doubt want more. Certainly not an extra 1st, but maybe a 2nd?
I think he is somewhat underrated. Big classy mid who is still only 21, Freo have basically spent 70+ games developing him and he’s now ready to launch with 10+ years ahead of him. It would be an incredible low-risk get.

Right price the operative word, after not having a 1st round selection last year and using the previous on Kemp IMO we need to go to this years draft and take the best mid available.
If we can land Cerra without using this years 1st then sure, but hard to see that happening.
He’s the right age and has been developed now ready to go.
I could come at our 1st rounder but that’s about it … throw in O’Brien if it helps …
I think a 1st and a 2nd is too much for us to pay, let alone his contract.
Good player certainly, but we have more pressing needs.
Young Reid certainly looks to have had a role in our rebuild doesn’t he.
We’ve roughly traded Gibbs and a future 1st rounder for :
DeKoning Kennedy O’Brien Stocker Kemp Philp …
We really need to see what’s to become of Stocker, Kemp & Philp into midfielders (Ramsay & even down to LOB as our winger) & then there’s the conundrum with Setterfield & SPS + the rise/return of Dow & Kennedy.
There’s enough to work with there.

Reckon Carroll is a big part of our midfield future …

Crows turned 4 into McAsey and Pedlar I believe. Both clubs would be happy with the trade. Ballsy by SOS.
Almost like we have him planted in there ourselves, he’s done well for us...
Hopefully Philp can be the winger we desperately need with his speed run and strong defensive traits...
Yeah, 1st year so not really considered as mainstay midfielders (could be a point of difference player for us too) & going nicely of late but the other guys listed all have years on their side now, some delayed by injury (+ COVID).

Where have you heard rumours of Samo wanting to go home? All I’ve heard is the recent report that he was happy and not agitating to come back to Perth.
Remember the 2019 draft, SOS went out with a bang.
Kept forcing the clubs with academy picks to use their lower picks.
But yeah, when he got none of those academy players he swapped that first rounder from Adelaide for two picks on kemp and Philp.
Be an interesting chess player, SOS

Que Cerra: Why Richmond shouldn’t chase Adam Cerra
Adam Cerra usually makes the right decision with the ball in his hands. In the coming weeks, he will make the most important call of his career to date.

By the end of the season Cerra will have a good sense of where the Tigers are headed, how promising the Dockers near future could be - and where the Blues are headed post-review
Personally I think him doing our forward 50 entries make him worth our top 2021 pick and then some if needed

Agree the smart play for Cerra is Fremantle or Carlton.
He is established at Freo and they look to be an improving team.
IF … he wants to return to Melbourne, the Blues look a good fit for him …
We might be a good fit for him, not so sure he's a good fit for us.
If we're spending that kind of capital on a mid his age, I want more running ability.
I think we should leave that sort of acquisition (trade & salary cost) alone this year.
Don't see the issue in allowing Stocker to develop into a primo small defender. I'm not much on extravagant comparisons, but he clearly has the makings of a vastly superior Hodge.
I like Cerra as a player would be an asset to our side. Problem is we are so thin in KPP stocks I think our first draft pick should be used on a tall this year.
I can also see Freo asking for a Kings ransom in any trade, so I think we should pass.

I’m on the fence with this one … and i hate that
I’d like to take our pick to the draft, top 10 picks are usually your friend in the end.
Against that, Cerra is the right age and ready to go now.
We sorely need class service to our forwards.
Watched Whitfield seal the deal yesterday and it was a timely reminder of the importance of classy finishers.
In the end, reckon it comes down to price.

I reckon it would be a bit (not to the same expense cost wise) as * going after Shiel.
Although a good player, he was the wrong guy for them for that price at that time.

No solid source at all. Just speculation on here which may be just that, plus he’s coming out of contract iirc. Hoping you’ve heard correctly but I can imagine he may be frustrated with the HBF experiment along with not being given a consistent crack to nail down his spot in the senior team this year.
All I’m saying is that IF he did want to go home then he we’d be best off linking him into a potential Cerra deal which will help us retain our first round draft pick.
