Rumour 2024 Hypothetical trade and FA Thread

[Mercy Seat]

Hawthorns idea of a fair offer and WC's idea of a fair offer is vastly different.
Hawthorn courted a contracted player and overs should be paid-up.

A first rounder plus a little extra is overs for a 29 year old. That’s why WC have lapped up the offer like a puppy with a dog treat.

It’s all been dragged out for optics.

 

[Dangleberry]

Here's a little secret for everyone about the Barrass deal. Has either WCE or Hawthorn come out and said that the deal is way off or that we are a fair way apart or it may not get done? That's where the discussion ends unless you're the media for them the sensationalism continues till the deal is done. WCE are busy doing what they want to get done and Hawthorn are doing what they need to do.

How dare you speak such logic in our presence, blasphemer.
Off with his head, he's a heretic.

 

[kazzooka]

We can’t rely on that. I just don’t get how a future first and second for a 29 yo isn’t appealing when they should be going all out for Warner with picks next year

It is, but they will haggle over including pick 77 or something till the final half hour just to keep up appearances and generate clicks.

Liam Pickering on Trade Radio saying that Hawthorn's best offer for Buddy 4 x 600k when the Swines came calling

McCabe is a looooong way off senior footy.

So is Dear....When they arrived at the Club McCabe was a loooooooooooong way ahead of Dear.

 

[Bardo State]

Do you not follow the news?

According to "the news", the latest haggling was over whether to include a future third round pick or not.

"Vastly different"

There’s a reason Pickerings nose is longer than Bill Lawrys

Didn't he say back then that it was for 5 at about $1mil?

 

[kazzooka]

Good to see where back to being the bad guys in every situation.

How dare we not just immediately provide what West Coast believe is fair value?

No other clubs do this. Every other club immediately provides exactly what the opposition club requests for a player, that’s why every trade has gone through immediately and there’s no need for anyone to negotiate.

I feel sick just thinking about the audacity of our club to do what’s best for us and not what’s best for the poor eagles.

Can't believe West Coast are getting Baker to commit to them and then refusing to hand over pick 3?

If true, then the Swans were the biggest morons on the planet for overpaying by more than 3x. So... not true.

I think he mispoke, I think he was saying that's the biggest contract he had at Hawthorn. So the 4x 600k ended in 2013, and then the offer of 5x 1m came from us.

 

[TheFourPillars]

So is Dear....When they arrived at the Club McCabe was a loooooooooooong way ahead of Dear.

Yes when they arrived but after pre season which McCabe didn't really finish and his injury has put him a bit behind

 

[Leather Poisoning]

The onus is on Hawthorn. The rumblings have already started in the AFL regards Hawthorn are the bad guys.

Oh no, not 'rumblings'!

That's almost as bad as the dreaded "not a good look".

A rabble of supporters make a rabble of a club it appears.

The question that West Coast fans can't seem to ask themselves nor answer:

Why is Tom Barrass, a WA local who signed a long term deal, seeking a trade?

 

[TassieGrown]

So the Swines could have got him for $601k but ended up offering $1m. I am calling BS on the 4 x $600k we offered or the Swines massively over paid

GWS also offered much more than Hawthorn. By that point the Swans had to out bid them, not us

 

[CliffMcTainshaw]

Actually, no, I am quite calm.
