Rumour 2024 Hypothetical trade and FA Thread

[Bugs1977]

Hopefully Perryman is on the big bucks with them, so they can't bring any big fish in next year.

Apparently Port were offering 7 years x 850k so if he's chosen the Pies then it surely cannot be too far from that

I reckon this would explain them cutting so many players. They need to free up cash to get him in and will likely take some flyers on kids late in the draft on low $$$.

Collingwood trying to run it back... Won't work, Perryman is 27 at the end of next year even though they need youth

 

[Hawk88]

Where we can find information on salary caps for the years within this CBA period?

Its hard to know who is being overpaid/underpaid given salaries seem to be so inflated. $750k might be the new 500k etc

Geelong are going to get Clarry and Baz for peanuts aren’t they…

Clarry maybe, not Baz necessarily, I wonder if Baz still goes to Cats if they go for Clarry?

Hocking is calling everyone to arms. It will be a giftathon

I really hope they don't get him. If they get him for a discount and somehow turn him back into the old Oliver, whilst also adding Smith too, then they have just rebuilt their midfield.

Needs a cannon or do the aints risk having someone throw them?

This is what they do. Always.

I very rarely read other club boards, however the posts on the Battle backlash tempted me read the Aints b&f thread. The posters supporting the president’s negative uninspiring speech highlights the club’s loser victim mentality.
One post really caught my eye:

was born to be a premiership player. I believe he will be”
I was so tempted to reply along the lines of “Do you have some inside information that CW is not going to see out his contract until the end of 2027?”.
The melts before my post was removed would have been an amusing read however I don’t want a suspension.

 

[CHUBBSS]

Saw this coming a mile out, Oliver is their perfect acquisition. Huge contract to move tho

Add them to Dangerflog and there is you butcher shop in the middle!
Hate to be a forward leading to those 3!!

Yep they're going to make the same mistake and top up like what we did and what Richmond did. IMO they should be considering doing a mini rebuild and IMO Melbourne too are in the same boat.

Both clubs don't have many players around 25-26 years of age to build around. Both clubs have a ridiculous amount amount of best 23 players that are 32 years or older and that will never end well.

Oliver is one of the best players in the competition if healthy and switched on. There's a big 'if' there, but this is a guy who has won a couple of Coach's Association awards. He's an absolute top end talent, albeit with serious personal issues. Geelong getting him for a steal would be annoying.

To be honest, it is a move that makes a lot of sense for each of Geelong, Melbourne and Oliver. Geelong back themselves to get the best out of players and if they do, their midfield is fixed. Melbourne have cultural issues and Oliver needs a fresh start. Can definitely see this happening, with Melbourne paying salary and Geelong getting him on the cheap.

Exactly. Jarman and Pritchard they ain’t.

could replace
Luke Hodge as their new ambassador

They sent Oliver their product to try. Apparently he loved it so much that he rang them the next day to ask for some more but was told ‘we just sent you a months supply yesterday!!!’

 

[TONYC3163]

I don’t see how the Cats have the draft capital (or players) to get Oliver and Smith.

 

[Mojo]

Not a mature industry just yet, are we?

 

[Lickmesocks]

Dees have to let him go. You can’t have a player on a 7 million dollar deal running around doing as he pleases right in front of everyone.

Cats will sell the dream that they can be the rehab facility again.

Dees surely will want to clear the 6 mill and 6 years owing to him asap and move on.

Will be an interesting watch this one!!!

 

[TONYC3163]

Compare that to how Barrass (and other players) have attended their club’s BnF to say their farewells.
Seems very petty by the Saints.

 

[Lickmesocks]

I don’t see how the Cats have the draft capital (or players) to get Oliver and Smith.

If they take on Oliver and his full contract for 6 years this will only be 1 first round pick and maybe a fringe player involved.

Smith will be 1 first round pick also.

2024 first round pick for Oliver.
2025 first round pick for Smith.

I think they can get these deals done easily.
