Ultimate Glory 2023 Trade speculation and Shinbeggars discussion

[Ned Ryerson]

They ARE NOT THE SAME PERSON.

Ease up, Tops. It’s just banter.

I am just protecting RnL. I know I should see the funny side, but this is not funny.

 

[hawkheart]

People wanted hardball - MM is going hard this trade period.

They mean retract not rebuff, right?

Yeah I was going let the mangling of the English language through to the keeper.

 

[Tony3163]

From other trade sites, I think it means Suns ‘rebuff’ hawks first offer.

 

[TylerDurden]

MM moving at a glacial rate as normal.

I'd expect we get nothing done until late Wed.

What happened to the "buckle up" from this morning?

Here's an interesting little tidbit around the number of players each club has traded out since 2012

Flat battery.

Wouldn’t stress about McKercher being midfield overkill.

If we drafted him at 4, he’d be the most prodigal pure midfield talent we’d drafted since idk, Xavier Ellis

(haha).

It’s up to the rest of the team to step up, because this kid is a freak and he’d be coming for EVERYONES midfield minutes at a significant rate of knots.

Does that matter?

 

[Faraway Hawk]

Does that matter?

It does for those of us hitting refresh every 2 minutes.

He was just letting everyone know that they should put their seatbelts on when they drive to work.

He will probably be having an afternoon nap, and miss the deadline.

Thats ’premiership player Xavier Ellis’ to you.

We are entering comatose Mark territory.

 

[TylerDurden]

Does that matter?

Depends what we get done. But right now we're haggling over a glut of B graders.

 

[eldorado]

What does this even mean? how do we rebuff our own offer?

I suspect the word he was looking for was 'rescind'...

Rebuff

 

[Mercy Seat]

Rebuff

I thought maybe we’d finally decided to go hardball. On ourselves…

I really don't know what you want or expect.

Go watch a movie if you're bored.

This thread is like hearing "Just kick the bloody thing, Hawthorn...Awww, who was that to??" every week at the footy

Except it will be "Do a trade! Wake up! Be aggressive!...Awwww, we rolled over!!!"


No need to be rash.

 

[MrPremiership]

So

Chol - we're saying future third (and someting later back) or we're out - i like it
D'Ambrosio - it gets done for something very late, hasn't really even been discussed but will happen late for nothing

Kosi - we're staying strong for an unlikely 2nd, but ultimately likely take a 3rd
Brockman - we're trying to make the best of a bad situation, Freo interest may be helpful


I'd say MM is doing ok. And who knows what else is going on in the background....

Patience.

 

[The Chad and I]

We are in a very strong position and don't need to do anything in a hurry.
Waiting to trade on draft night after scoping every club's wishlist is a very good strategy IMO.

Right now everybody has the luxury of time so they're not making their best offers.
On draft night we will see true prices and maybe even a FOMO premium to offers.

Wait it out if nothing acceptable comes through.
See who really wants it on draft night.

We can't lose with such a good first pick.

 

[MrPremiership]

Depends what we get done. But right now we're haggling over a glut of B graders.

We're not in a position to move out our A-graders, and the other A-graders don't want to come.

Not much MM can do about that

 

[MasterSamurai]

Rebuff means we need to come back to them with something more substantial.

 

[Howe Amazing]

I am reading between the lines the fact we are not wanting to pass on future 3rd we have something going on for future 1st
