Love it when oppo supporters come on and start dictating trade terms as if they are the ones negotiating the ****ing deal. It’s always hilarity.

He would look better then a Carlton oneHow would H. McKay look in a swans jumper?
As one that saw him tear us a new one in the wet last year on our home deck, you're 100% right about his skills as a midfielder.With Bolton you’re not just getting a regular small forward, you’re getting a player that can create and score the most exciting goals you’ll ever see and take unbelievable marks, and you’ll get to see that week in week out. He’s a freak talent and hasn’t even hit his peak yet.
He’s my favourite player to watch live and if he leaves I’ll miss him. Just check out his highlights from the last few years.
I actually prefer him as a midfielder and think he’s been underused there, he’s a clearance machine and with your young gun midfield setting him up he’ll be dynamite kicking goals on the run from the middle.
25 year-old 3 time premiership players don’t come up for trade often.
I’m not going to go into what he’s worth etc, just that at his best he’s worth every cent.
Switta is worth about pick 25-28 in my opinion.Eeek well if Switta wants to go what about one of our first rounders and Switta for Bolton?
I’ve seen pick 5 and 20 for Dan Rioli bandied about?
Am I going insane here. On what planet is he worth that? Certainly not earth anyway.
AFL would surely intervene if that were to happen
Said it earlier, there ideas on Rioli are legit the craziest I have EVER seen. I had to question if I was thinking about the wrong guyI’ve seen pick 5 and 20 for Dan Rioli bandied about?

How many second round picks/junk picks do Brisbane have? Ashcroft is looking like going top 3 so their 1st round pick is useless to them, we could do some sort of 3 way trade with Richmond where they get all our 1sts for Bolton and Baker but we get a stack of their seconds back our way, then we trade some of them along with 26 to Brisbane for their first pick this year to get back in the hunt for Berry.The media fails to say what’s going back the other way.
Gold Coast would probably take 2-3 second or third round draft picks back and consider it pretty similar to getting pick 15. Richmond would consider those picks pretty much useless. It’s BS but that’s the rules until next year.
Bolton and management are the ones exploring for an avenue back to WA not the other way round. Your 2nd point, Bolton has 2 flags and is looking for family support. Pass. Holding out for Warner.The point is that if you want a contracted player , you need to pay overs.
He would give you a definate shot at a flag.
Draft picks 7 and 12 are equvalent to pick 2 by the draft calculator.
We would probably consider that but nothing less I reckon.
Yep, even with our drafting being as good as it is, we still ended up with Ras as a pick 10 unable to break into a regular b22 3 years after drafting him, I’m not calling him a bust yet, but just because you take someone in the 1st round doesn’t mean they’ll contribute in their first 3-4 years.When you get bonafide guns like Treacy and others with late/rookie picks you can afford to cash some first rounders
Good lad Dave
The draft is always a lottery though.“So if it misses, I don’t think it’s the biggest of concern”
Considering the talent in this draft, yeah it is a concern.

Mate, you'd have to be a complete nuffy to think that means anything other than "Bolton wants to leave"
I think you need to enrol in a PlayerManagerese language course
