He’s contracted forever. Would you give up your best player for that even in a rebuild?
Well no, but he’s not at the level of peak Nat Fyfe or Serong or Brayshaw.
He’s not even Lachie Neale when Neale left, so why would we give up more?

He’s AA so in the ball park. Peak Fyfe is different.Well no, but he’s not at the level of peak Nat Fyfe or Serong or Brayshaw.

Similar value to Neale when he left really. In more compromised drafts, the Pies and Port pick is pretty similar to what we got for Lachie. I think it will be those picks with something after 40 coming back we can useWell no, but he’s not at the level of peak Nat Fyfe or Serong or Brayshaw.

Said before the pettiness in me doesnt want WC getting Baker but like, surely we are actually out of the Baker race. It just doesnt make sense really. I know we lose a fair few players but losing Switta would be an even bigger head scratcher than Schultz reallyIf and it’s a massive IF.
If Bolton and Baker go to Freo will Switta’s name be raised in part of the trade?
Has his name already been brought up in previous discussions and may have been why there was a very small rumour?
Do we do that trade? Say 2x1sts + Switkowski. Possibly through them a Brodie?

While on the topic, maybe we can give one of our players that Carl's Jr that's about to open up in Piara Waters, I've been waiting for it since getting back from America/Canada earlier this year.
Only 750k for the franchise rights on Seek
Surely being the first Carl's in WA is more attractive than wce offer of tired old HJs

Have heard similar but through an extended grapevine.Twomey on gettable
"Shai Bolton, Freo are still chasing him, he wants to get back to western Australia, he will pursue this"
Baker isn’t contracted so surely he’s the least valuable of the lot. Personally would rate him at WC 2nd pick this year.Barrass and Bolton.
If Tom Barrass goes to Hawthorn for a first and a second while contracted for three years, what value does that put on Bolton?
What would that same value on Bolton make Liam Baker's value??
now say the same for Hughesoh. tidbit.
Not unexpected, but Tabs won't be at the club next year.
Destination TBC, in talks with WAFL clubs.
100% thisWell no, but he’s not at the level of peak Nat Fyfe or Serong or Brayshaw.

that wouldn't be enough for WarnerBolton if available is just a do without question, a lot like how I felt about the Jackson trade. A player of that talent wanting to come to your club? Just pay a good price.
I would be happy giving Pies 1st, Our 1st and a swap of our F2s to increase our points for the next seasons NGAs.
This keeps the Port pick for some list needs (Berry) or even still more bargaining power to trade further into next year and having our first pick at the Saints 2nd which could have some gems fall through at that range.
For Warner in 2025 we will still have our 1st and 2026 1st (potentially even our 2027 one as well) which is more then enough to make a trade happen.
What mechanism do they have to ask for more for an uncontracted player?that wouldn't be enough for Warner
We've only missed 2 drafts, 2022 and 2023. Ras, Johnno and Amiss drafted in 2021, but their first year is 2022. So this is their 3rd season.Has the “clubs must take 2 first round picks within a four year period” rule been relaxed yet? If not we need to use 2 this year or 1 this year and 1 next year, Amiss and Erasmus are our last first round picks and next year is their fourth year in the league.
More worried for next year targeting Warner, if we only use 1 this year the AFL may try to stop us trading out our first next yearWe've only missed 2 drafts, 2022 and 2023. Ras, Johnno and Amiss drafted in 2021, but their first year is 2022. So this is their 3rd season.
I don't know the actual rules and I can't be bothered looking them up, but I suspect if they are going to allow trading of 2xF1s those rules might change.
I'd expect us to use 1 of the firsts this year either way.
I'm sure they'll be all over that.More worried for next year targeting Warner, if we only use 1 this year the AFL may try to stop us trading out our first next year

No one here thinks we can afford both Bolton and Worner?
Even if we unload fyfe, Walters and a few fringe players in the next two drafts
We have a fridge full of top end talent signed on with Brayshaw still to extend, Treacy to re-negotiate...
I just don't see how we are paying them their market value (or just under) and bring in both big fish
For me, it's one or the other
Maybe it's a Bolton / Baker, or Worner/ Baker
But surely we can't afford 2 mil for 2 players.
Unless Darcy is shipped off
So for me, maybe this talk encourages Sydney to think about the trade this year - as I'd rather Warner
Bolton doesn't seem like a team player, recency memories of him against us earlier this year selfishly loading up from outside 50 burning his team mates padding his stats
