[Outshined]

Let's be honest, it wouldn't be a Freo trade period without losing someone we want to keep.

Hawks up the ante in Lachie Schultz pursuit

Pressure forward Lachie Schultz enjoyed a career-best season at the Dockers, playing 20 of a possible 22 games and booting 22 goals.

Schultz did not come out of nowhere, there were rumblings for a few years.

Literally no single media outlet has ever reported that Sam Switkowski might leave

Rumours from two years prior do not hold any weight. It's like saying Neale in 2018 had rumblings because Port were trying to get him over in 2016.

 

[Docker82]

Pretty sure that's how they've always done it. It's why Meek's trade request came a lot later than the other guys who left that year.

It’d either be like this or just do everyone now. It’s already been confirmed it’s not the latter.

Still wouldn’t be surprised if we hear nothing official until Peel are done though - if we can keep all the trade requests (if any) quiet that is.

I do remember hawks offered him a deal. But he stayed for our 2+1

Our deal must’ve been better

 

[Cobbler]

Can we look to get Gold Coast involved with Rioli and Bolton deal?

Pick 6 is ludicrously too high for Rioli.

Haven’t run the maths, but would Gold Coast benefit from downgrading through us?

Somehow Tigers end up with 6, 9, 10.

We keep 17.

All sorts of later round or future picks swaps, upgrades etc in favour of whoever.

 

[purplerunsdeep2]

I hope we don't give up both 9+10 for Bolton

Ideally 9 + 17 and steak knives

Need to continue bringing in young talent

Happy to give one of seconds for baker also

And go to the draft with the other - or collard if there's any merit to that rumour

I feel like if Sturt or Switta was leaving, we’d have heard something from a journo. Manager getting rumours out there or something. Crickets.
Sturt on a 2/3 year deal I reckon

 

[ilikepotatoes]

Be realistic guys. It's more likely than not that Sturt leaves. We've offered him a contract, but he's probably getting an extra 200k+/year from another club that has worse forward stocks than us. Doesn't mean we've underpaid or undervalued him, it's likely just a Logue situation where keeping him would mean overpaying a ton.

Switta I don't really see him leaving, especially with Baker choosing WC, Schultz leaving last year, Walters done. Don't think we'd get enough value from that to justify letting him go with 2 years left. If there's a genuine family situation then it probably gets done.

Sturt hurts way worse than Logue because he's basically the only AFL quality medium forward we have on the list.

6 is overs but suns don’t need kids.
Rioli will probably win the BnF

If freo give up 9 & 10 for Bolton fans will riot even 9 & 17 you’d want something back

I still think a third club gets involved with this one tbh whether it’s directly or indirectly.

Baker, Graham and Rioli all going out could open up opportunities. Unless West Coast are absolute campaigners with Baker (they should be btw) I can’t see how Bolton isn’t the last one of these done.

 

[MadMundy]

Switkowski I reckon stays.

Sturt is most likely analysing his options, we'll match whatever is offered.

Neither will leave in my opinion, neither of them have any real reason to leave.

I'd prefer if we didn't lose him, but we can't be paying him more than he's worth.

 

[ilikepotatoes]

I agree but like Logue we would have had the chance to extend him before the season started on much less coin.

He deserved a multi year extension after the second half of last season in my opinion.

 

[Superkoops]

There has been a bit scuttlebutt around Switta for a bit now.

Nothing at all on Sturt. I wouldn’t be surprised if they are haggling over the length of contract and dollars. For Sturt the grass isn’t necessarily greener on the other side. He has found a niche in the side and it is his to lose. He also doesn’t have d*ckh**d manager persuading him to head off to St Kilda.

I guess time will tell.

Banners is an elite winger not a medium forward.

 

[apuchar]

We tend to pay more than they are worth when we bring them in from somewhere else but not when we have to keep our own. We just love what everyone else.

Elite, like the word love is a very strong word

 

[Johnny Dalmas]

I'm not sure how we get better losing 2 B23 players, especially in the forwardline having lost Schultz last year.

Just can't keep hold of our 12th - 23rd best players.

We literally give our guys no on-field reasons to stay.

Daniel Hoyne said it on radio. Can't take it back now.

If retention worked like that the Bombers would turn over half their list every year.

Just like the fluff that Switta was elite

Elite at kicking 35m max
Elite at kicking when running into goal and looking for someone and fluffing it

And like Logue, he hadn't shown enough in terms of fitness/availability and form to warrant an extension yet.

Again, second half of last year was very average if you take out a two week block (which included the eagles demolition). A one year extension was appropriate then. He deserves a multi year after his form this year, but if a cashed up club comes swooping in then he'd be stupid not to take it given his knee issues.

Think you'll find just about every club in the league does that. They just phrase it differently. "Look how much our players love to be here they're even accepting so much less than they would at other clubs so they can stay!"

 

[Johnny Dalmas]

That’s what happen when you pay a **** Ton for 2 rucks

For 1.5 rucks
