There really seems to be too much noise around us trading up to pick 8 for it not to be happening which is both sickening and depressing. I'm going to look into the big name trades and see if ANY other club has done that before, I cant think of any off the top of my head.

Here is the only trade I can make any sense of for all parties involved and it's still vomit worthy for us

Port
Out: 8, F2, F4
In: 13, F2 (North), 33, F3 (Melbourne)

Mlebourne
Out: Jackson, 33, F3
In: 8, 13, F4 (Port)

Freo:
Out: Logue, 13, F1
In: Jackson, F2 (Port)

That means we are paying pick 13 a Future 1st and half a Logue for Jackson, if we miss the 8 it would probably be the most expensive trade since Judd...

How much do we need to meet their expectations? Isn’t he out of contract? Hello, Jackson meet PSD.
 
Historic big trades

Jeremy Cameron - no first round trade ups
Tim Kelly - no first round trade ups
Adam Treloar - no first round trade ups
Lachie Neale - no first round trade ups
Dylan Shiel - no first round trade ups
Patrick Dangerfield - no first round trade ups
Steven May - no first round trade ups
Jake Lever - no first round trade ups
Brad Hill - actually BROKE up their first pick to get it done
Jess Hogan - no first round trade ups

Is there some names I'm forgetting because at the moment, it looks like we could be the first schmucks since trading future's was allowed to upgrade their first round pick to satisfy the other team

Just don't do it. It's embarrassing and piss weak.

Yeah it’s ****ed. I’m all for bringing in LJ but why are we paying so much for him?? He’s OOC!!!
 
Weren’t the media adamant that we wouldn’t get pick 6 for Cerra?

Weren’t they absolutely sure that we’d get a teens pick for hill?

I’m pretty certain that they were confident that we’d give up 2 firsts for hogan.

That we’d have to give up 19 for Clark.

Right now, They’re all just filling space until shit actually happens. And Jackson creates clicks.

Snuffaluphagus weren’t you saying only just this week, that it would be pretty straight forward? Why the doubt now? This is no time for cold feet, we haven’t even had the bachelorette party yet.

We were always getting pick 6 for Cerra. Every party was on board with that from the get go.

I dont maintain reason or calm when it comes to trades, I reserve the desire to vent over trades at all times.

All media was on board at pick 6 for Cerra I think, or at least 90% of them and not counting the real boneheads

Yes I did say that, but what I said can still be correct, just a worse version of a guestimate on the trade value

And the reports from the media and the trade radio idiots were speculating otherwise.

It’s exactly my point. They need SOMETHING to talk about, that will keep people clicking and listening.

That pick 8 story started from nothing.

Naturally Melbourne would say they want a pick in the top ten.

It’s just that everyone has taken two different pieces of information, and have tried to create a link. Both threads are weak .
 
I suppose what I’m really trying to say is, Twomey is relaying information from his sources, likely Melbourne leaks, to make it seem like they’re taking a hard line, and that bell will be unreasonable.

It’s all posturing. It’s exactly like Clark last year. Both sides make ambit claims, then eventually meet in the middle. Where everyone thought it would be in the first place.

Have to remember this is all a show.

I don't think the pick 8 story comes from nothing. There's clearly something there bc why choose ports pick 8? why not go with whoever has pick 7 or pick 9.

As for Cerra all the actual reports from Twomey and the other AFL.com guys said 6 would be used for Cerra. Doesn't matter what trade radio and other media speculated, because the official sources knew it was pick 6.

I think there's a chance we do upgrade and then the final offer is 8 + F2 for Jackson. I'd like to think there's zero chance we use 2 firsts and a second round pick. It'll be 2 of the 3.
 
If we let a contracted Lobb go to WB for a future second and then trade up for a top 7 pick so we can use it and a second or possibly even another first rounder for Jackson I will be very surprised.
Melbourne can ask for whatever they want, has there been any suggestion we didn’t hang up the phone when it was put to us?
