Rumour 2024 Hypothetical trade and FA Thread

Re CP:
  • He wants out of Melbourne FC.
  • He will not move interstate.
  • He would entertain offers from any Victorian club but would prefer one that is competing in, or close to, finals.
  • His destination would also need to have a culture that he is happy with.
  • He likes Hawthorn ... has friends there.
  • Melb FC are going to demand heavy compensation. Coming back to them will include, ideally, an elite established forward.

I don't know whether the Hawks want him or can get him. I do know that we are absolutely one of his preferred destinations.

If we made a move then I imagine the starting point would be:
  • 1st Rounder (2024)
  • Lewis

Would Mitch be agreeable to go to that rabble?

Carlton should be all over this

Offer up their first and McKay as a start would almost eliminate all other Vic clubs

I know for a fact they've been into Lewis all year.
Would be part of any deal.

You really think McKay is sitting back saying ‘yeh that complete ****ing rabble where a superstar is desperate to leave is where I want to play instead of with all of my best friends’?

I’d be sniffing around McKay (or TDK), we’d be much more attractive. Blues need space and a pick if they are serious about Houston, Silvagni and TDK are more than capable of playing second/third forward instead of McKay and realistically they can’t all play together.
 
Nobody realistically wants to go to Melbourne 💀 made a deal with the devil 🤓 and sold their club's soul for that 2021 flag. Didnt even win it at the g
 
Now this is what the hypothetical thread is for:

OUT:
  • 2024 First Rounder
  • 2025 First Rounder
  • likely our Second Rounders too
  • Lewis
  • Fringe players

IN:
  • Petracca
  • Barrass
  • Battle
  • Anderson via NGA
  • 2025 Flag

Impey - Barrass - Hardwick
Sicily - Battle - Scrimshaw

Meek - Newcombe - Day
Amon - Petracca - D'Ambrosio

Moore - Chol - Macdonald
Watson - Dear - Ginnivan

Bench from:
Weddle
Worpel
Gunston
Nash
Mackenzie
Frost
CJ
Breust

Cherry picking all the random thread rumours I like

Battle FA
Finn to the Swans for their F2
Reeves to the dogs for their F3
Serong and dog's F3 to the Saints for their F2
DGB, 1st this year, Saints F2 for Barrass and WC F3
Lewis, Ward and our F1, West Coast's F3 for Petracca and Melbourne's F2

Maintains a future 2nd, 3rd and 4th to trade our future first (is that even still a rule?)

Battle, Barrass, Petracca, Greuzewski in.

Midfield depth a bit decimated. She'll be right. Trac is in. Croc, Frenchie, Huss, Moore, Watto move up in rotations with injuries.

Flags.

We trading out our NGA before he even walks in the door?

Where the hell does big G come from?

Can prob live with the rest although really wouldn't like seeing yet another Hawk name playing for the Swans and Ward at the dee's 🥲
 
Who says no...

HAW OUT - Lewis, Pick 12, F1 (HAW)
HAW IN - Barrass, Petracca

MEL OUT - Petracca
MEL IN - Lewis, Pick 12, F1 (HAW), F2 (WCE)

WCE OUT - Barrass, F2 (WCE)
WCE IN - Pick 6, DGB

Probably St Kilda who would be wondering why they are giving us Pick 6 to get Trac?
 
Lewis won't want to move.
And would Melbourne want a key forward in return for their best player who is likely missing the entire next season?

This has St.Kilda written all over it.
Max King and the first rounder they get for Battle.

They'll sell the professionalism of Ross Lyon first and foremost. Then just say the first half of this year was an aberration.

Would create a solid partnership with Jack Steele.

Also, he knows he'd be the main reason why their crowds and membership figures sky-rocket. Would be a HEAP of interest in watching him play for another club.
 
If we made a move then I imagine the starting point would be:
  • 1st Rounder (2024)
  • Lewis
That’s an easy yes I think. But way too easy.

I don’t think we would nor would Lewis want to go to Melbourne, might have to get another team involved.
 
Bazlenka chasing the payday.

The pressure on losses at GC is non existent.

He can Tik Tok all he wants and when the form drops off no-one really cares.

I want serious players pulling on the jumper.

Next it will be who's got the biggest Tik Tok following at the club if he came.

Too many youngsters easily influenced at Hawks right now.

Arghhh no thanks !!
Baz is about as hard working and serious of a player you will find in the AFL. Having an off field social media presence is is no way related.
