Game Day 2024 Trade Period - Lian Yu - that liminal space between trade and draft.

[Vimal Anand]

Justin Chadwick of Australian Associated press just came this evening in 91.3 fm on sports drive and said Warner to freo definite in 12 months. Is he accurate usually?

Good question?

Not really. They should know a lot better. Peak nuffie conversation from two blokes who should know that answer

Daniels was very firm on the mailbag HBG that Pickett definitely wants to come to Freo but there's no way to get it done - ie Melbourne said not a ****ing chance

In other words, Pickett and his management need to come to the party. Play the homesick card and milk it for everything.

If his manager is just half decent at his job, he'll see that this is achievable. Homesick, media pressure, picks that freo have, he'll leave anyway.

Stop being soft pansies and play your f**ing roles

People around the world place their faith and trust in JC.

Let’s hope this tale of two Chads in accurate.

To answer your question, I have no idea who this guy is.

 

[Joao]

I agree he’s not a star, but he’s a massive improvement on what freo have now.

He's much better than Banfield or Emmett as a small forward, but that's a low bar.

The problem is, to get him, we'll need to pay as if he is a star. Especially as its the Pies. They'd straight up ask for 10 back as a starting point.

His manager is Colin Young...let it go...

The insta story is apparently a quote from a Herald Sun article behind a paywall from September.

Name our best seven forwards with Bolton in it. There’s no way that includes Emmett and personally I don’t think it includes Banfield.

It has to be a star to be a ‘massive improvement’. Some improvement is a different story but the cost needs to be taken into consideration.

Link? Could be doubling down to save face?

4 smalls would be Bolton, Sturt, Switta and one of Banners, Emmett or Walters - who I forgot initially and he's also much better than these days.

Unless Simpson breaks out, he's got all the options for the 7th spot covered easily.

Haha somewhere near the end where someone mails in about Melbourne not being as bad as everyone says.

Banfield, forgive them, for they know not what they do.

Freddie?

Around 21.45 in

 

[Joao]

Freddie?

Whom I also forgot. He's definitely a better pressure forward than Freddy, but that's not Fred's role.

Well he's a significantly better goal threat than Switta and a better pressure player than Sturt. I think you can make arguments either way so maybe it isn't as clear cut as I thought Docker82

Pickett sounds like he is being held hostage. Just let him go Melbs pleasee haha!

Will make him want to leave even more

Melbourne are looking so desperate to stay in the window. It’s over Dees!

How can a player be in green for three teams ie Dan Houston.

Any salad will help you Wallsy…. Geezus you are one BIG unit

Thanks sorry didn't see the legend hence the asterisk.

 

[FreoBraddles]

I think that Melbourne will be desperate to keep Kozzie, but does anyone think perhaps all the reports that he is 100% staying from Twomey, Morris and Co. in the last 24-36 hours are just Melbourne trying to save face until at least past their BnF tomorrow night?

Will already be a rough night for some getting up on stage in light of the Clarry situation, if there was anything more substantial re. Pickett, well... people would be making a live coup on stage.

Do we think it is possible/likely that things could ramp up after tomorrow night?

You could well be right. I think they are in damage control and may not know the best corse of action. Richmond on the other hand have leaving stars and are cashing in before it's too late.

I know which club I'd want to be going forward.

He didn't say it quite like that. On the Gettable epsiode with the WC list manager a few weeks ago, when asked about Bolton he said he doesn't see how any team (Freo or WC) could get a deal done for such a good player on a long term contract.

Pretty laughable he was trying to act like Freo couldn't get a deal done either with our draft hand. But it's true they wouldn't try to pump up his trade value publically if they genuinely wanted to trade for him
