Getting two young players who have shown a bit but been starved of opportunity is exactly the sort of thing we should be doing imo.

How are those moves bad? They're young players looking for opportunity, exactly the profile we should be targetting.

We should be, but Tim will get reamed at the table. Like GWS and Port would ask for more and Tim would say yes.

What previous deals for incoming players have we been reamed on?

I just think we need a better guy than Tim.

 

[MarcMaverick]

Sorry guys, my head went weird there.

 

[Mich0]

What did he post?

Both would cost second round picks and maybe some steak knives with a third or fourth rounder or pick swap or something. Personally I don't care about winning trades at that level of granularity.

Looks like a link to a podcast's post to me. Was probably a guest on said podcast and sharing the episode details?

God this pre-Trade period is dull, feels like I am watching a Sheffield Shield match without the cricket.

I agree, brain just malfunctioned a bit. Also need a small forward, Kozzy and Chin isn't enough.

 

[Crusty Demon]

Not totally convinced on Lord or Aleer as they've only shown glimpses. But have been starved of opportunity. So surely they'd be better targets than Membrey or Daniel. Early to mid 20s age bracket with upside starved of opportunity is a good strategy. Hit the top end of the draft next couple of drafts and as those kids impact, then Lord, Aleer types will be at their peak(potentially). Lamb would get credits for getting either of those blokes into the club. Derkson another worth a punting. Still would love us to shake Peatling loose.

Leek Aleer would be sick. His game down in Geelong this year was awesome. Did some great things in the last and is wildly athletic albeit still a bit raw.

I put it on yesterday morning around 8:15 and it was stuck on ads for 45mins straight. Highlight for me so far.

 

[MarcMaverick]

I wonder if Riak Andrew and Noah Yze are any chance at being drafted this year,

 

[Bluelegs]

I agree, brain just malfunctioned a bit. Also need a small forward, Kozzy and Chin isn't enough.

If we came out of the trade period with Owies, Aleer, Lord and held onto pick 5 that would be a good outcome for us.

So a rain delay or a ECB time wasting tactic.

Mac Andrew was similar in 2023. Now he's the highest paid player in the game. Aleer is worth the risk. Not sure what a decent offer would be? Package up a F1 and this years 2nd for Peatling and Aleer? Is that overs/unders?

Derksen too. Tom Campbell seemingly.

 

[Crusty Demon]

How many list spots do we currently have to fill?

 

[Mich0]

Leek Aleer I am all for. Bloke will be a jet KPD for next 10 years.

Right after the channel 9 and 7 news speculating he was leaving? Doubt that’s a coincidence.

 

[Demon 16]

what do you think your club would be looking for pick wise? hard to put a value on him when it's all scuttlebut... like is he operating dog fighting rings? running drugs across state lines? how bad can it be

It’s so hard to say what would get a deal done. It would depend partly on how much of his contract was picked up.

I think the scuttlebutt is that he was staying out late and partying too much with some mates. He missed a few training sessions and was just unprofessional and immature.

He seems to have ironed it out now and the club believes he can get back close to his best. There’s still some risk there though.

 

[Demon Attack]

Yep his last quarter was wild. Worth a watch if we get him for anyone who missed it.

I lasted 10 min on Trade Radio , they are just seemingly making stuff up . Waste of time .

Which is why if we are to full American with AFL there needs to be trades happening right now.

Oliver is going to be meeting with Geelong. Disaster, what the **** are they going to offer is pick wise after the Bailey Smith
