Analysis 2021 trade thread

[scoman]

in my book it certainly does.

Yes

Sounds rather simplistic

 

[Sproj]

Anyone else sick of reading 'wantaway'? Come up with a new word media people or at least one that isn't triggering!

 

[Couch Coach]

Much better person? How do you know this?

Was kicked out of Collingwood (picked up with Andrew Krakouer as part of GCS trade) for thinking he was better than everyone and not training hard when he was young. Some time in the VFL for Box Hill seems to have turned him around.

As a key forward/ruck?

196cm
Not that big KF/ruck… but would offer some flexibilty as that third target perhaps?
Was just a question… not likely an option

Not for me personally, can’t see him being much different to Fullarton or Ballenden for us at the moment.

I saw a post in draft board about Fremantle could potentially bundle 19 and 22.

Would we consider our 14 if they ask? We get 3 picks within top 30 and they get 6,8,14 which would be 8,10,16 in the end.

They'll be trading one of those picks for Jordan Clark I'd assume.

 

[The Zork]

Battle I lump in the same category as Tomlinson.. kind of confused nondescript tall.

I would consider it if we decided against/ couldn't convince a mature ruck to come. I think he could fill in as Hipwood's replacement and also negate the need to grab an 18 year old tall in this draft. I feel we don't have a versatile, athletic, aggressive third tall as backup to either McStay/ Hipwood or Gardiner/ Adams should everyone be fit. I would certainly play him ahead of Fullerton (who I see as developing into a Steph Martin style ruck) and Ballenden. It's not the worst idea and I could see it working. I'm not sure he would accept 150k or less though. Perhaps if nobody else comes forward, or he really likes the idea of coming here.

 

[Clarkythelion]

Specifically, "not quite ready to let you go" generally actually means "you're not out of contract yet and AFL clubs hate paying out contracts".

yep that is what I believe it generally means. Although I think Lester might have been one that went out and back in again but I might be wrong.

 

[Clarkythelion]

Suns don't have to pay half a mil next year for a state level footballer

true - I think the term is - Opportunity Costs. If they use that money to then secure King from a St Kilda raid to get the brothers together then that is a good deal for the Suns.

 

[Sproj]

So with Cerra being a done deal, what trades are being kept for the last hour of the last day now?

 

[pulpdriver]

He mentioned Coleman pacifically as Birchall replacement on B&F night after Birchall’s retirement speech

I really excited about seeing our defensive make up next year

At his age and being a higher draft pick, I just thought it could be a decent option (I agree if we can’t get that ruck role filled)…. There would be worse options out there in regards to providing flexibility etc

Dawson seems like the obvious one for mine

lobb wants back to GWS time to talk to briggs perhaps

Coniglio to Fremantle? Captain or not, that's 1million dollars a year not doing much for your club & hasn't for a while.

 

[Nuggo]

Perhaps a back ended contract could be used this year on somebody if the salary cap is a bit tight this year.

That's Collingwood talk.

 

[Nuggo]

That's Collingwood talk.

I'd be prepared to risk it as a lot players are out of contract at the end of next year which might allow an opportunity to restructure a little bit.

 

[Johnny Bananas]

Rendell was just talking about us on Trade Radio, see if you all can listen back later. And they're taking questions now.

 

[Viceregal]

And ftr I haven't met a vegan cross-fitter that I could tolerate yet either.

Gee how would you know they were a vegan or a cross-fitter or both? *blinks innocently*

 

[mpal6]

Jeez Freo cap will be enormous at this rate.

Or a pilot

He forgot Payne as a defender if we wanted to use Andrews forward agree with him on pacey tall midfielder hopefully Goater makes it to our pick 16 the interesting part was at the end when he said We
