Trade Radio going to have no one to talk about over and over at the rate everyone is signing up

They'll be discussing 'who has the best signature in their re-signing paperwork' type conversations.

This thread has jumped the shark.

Glad we’re playing good footy

Just getting started my friend. There's another 700 pages to come.

This deal has been simmering along for months I reckon.
If he has done our physical he must have done that weeks ago.

If its true what has been reported that whilst under Simmo
Barass was given a verbal promise of $$$ and contract.

They all agreed.

Now they have gone back on their word and he ain't a happy camper.

His mates in the club will get wind of the lies so I expect some players looking to get out.

Don Pike seems to cause trouble where ever he lands.

Ka Norkers sorry you can't have your bigfooty victory lap on this one. Thoughts and prayers.

Who’s to say that they wouldn’t all be having the seasons that Chol, Mass and Frosty have had if they were with us instead.

One thing we seem to do extremely well is identify talent on offer, and then we(touch wood) get the best out of it.

This.

I think the footy department has earned our trust given how we've traded and drafted the past few years. If they think Barrass is the one. I'm all in with them.

I can understand why others are dubious given the outcome of the last time we topped up. Always a risk, but I'm happy to back the club.

Yet the Sons of future AFL legends get opportunities to go into northern academies.

Yeah, it's a horrible system all round

Curtin wants to go back home to Perth. Eagles fans are caught in a bind.

They have to argue why it is good to let Curtin go while also stating why Crows to take whatever deal Eagles offer while doing the reverse argument for Harley.

3 way trade with hawks could unlock this knot.

IMO Curtin + a first rounder should suffice for Reid.

Crows get a first rounder for Curtin.

hawks part with 2 first rounders for Reid.

What did North get for JHF? WCE would want more and Reid would have to make it absolutely clear he wants out.

They got reamed, JHF and pick 1 for picks 2, 3 and ports future first (pushed out to pick 20)

Oh man, sometimes all you can do is facepalm....

Sometimes it is.

My main point is Eagles can't make 2 different argument for Reid and Curtin. The time to strike on Reid is when Curtin makes the demand to get to Eagles and when that happens we need assets available.

I hope it is this year so Barrass doesn't mess up the dynamic.

North gave up JHF and pick 1 for picks 2, 3 and ports future first.

Eagles will have pick 3, don't think they are adding that to any equation.

Whatever they demand for Reid as extra should get cancelled by a similar demand for Curtin. We need to use this dynamic to good effect.

We will have a better idea once we know the final placings.

I mean they can try...Geelong did with saying everyone who ever saw a surf beach will want to go there but then refused to trade Tim Kelly back to West Coast when he wanted to go

I wasn't arguing with your point, I agree that if both Curtin and Reid say they want to return home then the Weagles couldn't be talking out of both sides of their mouth.

That’s like saying if we wanted Tambling in 2005 and Franklin wanted to go home to WA Franklin and Tambling would cancel each other out for trade value.

Twomey on Gettable saying that Hawks are still in the mix for Perryman and that he thinks its leaning on Barrass leaving and that he thinks Hawthorn have now taken the lead if he is wanting to leave

has not resigned with the Saints who reportedly have offered him similar terms to what we have. This leads me to believe that Battle wants out and will join us during the upcoming trade period.

REgRettable - the feeling I have after trawling through an ep.

Hoping Saints struggle for the remaining games, he is at a minimum still thinking about it I guess. Reporting still seems to think that Tim English is staying too but he also hasnt signed yet I guess
