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

[go_the_dockers]

Looking at our list Jackson, Young, Serong, Brayshaw, Cox and Darcy are all between 21, 10 months and 25 and 4 months.
Erasmus, Johnson, Amiss are 19 to 20.

That is 9 good to verry very good players in 6 years.


Now while I would like one or two more very good players in this group, I think we need to add 2 or 3 more and chase a flag using this core.

I am happy to get one or two older players, especially if they can improve our midfield or forward line.




Looking at the list of WA players, there is several wingers and mids, but not many small forwards. We should be looking to draft these.

4 1st round picks the next two years, lots of salary cap space, so let's use them so we can hit finals 2025 and for 3 or 4 years straight.

Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera (South Australia but some WA connections and I love his run and carry). FYI - we should be able to get him for a future 2nd rounder

Players Off Contract 2026 – By State

A complete list of AFL players off contract in 2026 by junior state.

Ed Allan is the key target

 

[Vimal Anand]

Wasn't a strong draft in general though. Brodie was the next pick. We were never taking English. Best player taken at 66. Can't fault Freo there.

At that time I heard in our forum on draft day morning that we were interested in Jye Simpkin

On SM-S918B using BigFooty.com mobile app

 

[DragoDelph]

I think it’s playing games.
Makes west coast pay more for baker, and keeps 10 out of the Bolton discussion

 

[DragoDelph]

Otherwise I’d expect something in the first round back

 

[Cobbler]

But also that from Ralph makes no sense. We won’t give 9,10 for Bolton because we want to save 10 for Baker? So Richmond will get 9,10,16 for them both. But we can use 9,10 for Bolton and then give 16 for Baker and it’s the exact same return lol tf

Rookie.

We KNOW Baker doesn’t want to come to us. So we offer 10. Thus, we default to 9 and 16 for Bolton.

IF Baker does then say Freo, you’re correct. It’s the same deal.

This is a triple whammy sandwich. It ‘forces’ Eagles to pay 13 when 23 should’ve been all it takes. It makes Baker welcomed like a fart in an elevator at West Coast and lastly it ‘forces’ Richmond to accept 9 and 16.

 

[Farrand]

At that time I heard in our forum on draft day morning that we were interested in Jye Simpkin

Yeah, believe Simpkin and SPS were the names being chucked around.

 

[Cobbler]

Yep. You summed it up a bit quicker than me!

 

[Farrand]

I honestly believe that if we trade all our first rounders for Bolton and Baker, it will be coming back to bite us on the arse down the line. Feels like another Croad trade but at least McPharlin redeemed that somewhat.

 

[Dockeroo]

Ross Lyon said a few years later that we looked very closely at Todd Marshall in that 2016 draft who was around pick 16 I think

 

[Dockeroo]

It a positive for me that the number one Richmond Nuff cheerleader in the media, Jon Ralph is saying we are not offering 9 & 10 for Bolton.

Baker for 10 would be really ugh unless we got 21 and 30 back.

Even still I hate the use of 10 on an OOC baker

 

[Joao]

Logue is a Freo cooked that big time

Knew you couldn't resist.

 

[Cobbler]

Anyone able to provide the article please?

 

[ROGS]

Yep. You summed it up a bit quicker than me!

Baker is not worth a first round pick in any circumstance, let him go to the Egirls and be another Kelly pick that leads nowhere

 

[Lach72]

I honestly believe that if we trade all our first rounders for Bolton and Baker, it will be coming back to bite us on the arse down the line. Feels like another Croad trade but at least McPharlin redeemed that somewhat.

Look it would be overpaying, but we’re in a much better position now than then

DOCKERS’ PLANS FOR BOLTON, BAKER REVEALED

Fremantle will offer two first-rounders for Shai Bolton, but not picks 9 and 10 given it is still holding out hope it might secure fellow Tiger Liam Baker. The Dockers have picks 9, 10 and 16, with the last pick likely to drift out three spots given NGA and father-son bids.

More Coverage​

Big O, Mills cleared for on-field roles after injury pain
Coffee, Disney and AFL royalty: Joe Daniher, footy’s mystery man
They would hand Richmond one of pick 9 or 10 and then 16 given he is contracted to 2028 and capable of being one of the league’s game-breakers.

The Tigers will ask the world for their departing players and have already indicated they want more than the No. 6 draft pick the Suns would offer for Rioli. But the Dockers will hold one of those two early picks in case Baker decides on the Dockers instead of West Coast.

The Eagles will make their coaching decision early next week, with Andrew McQualter and Hayden Skipworth seen to have edged ahead of Steven King.

 

[Cobbler]

I like him. Think he’s been criminally underrated here, but I’m coming around to him not selecting us and that makes me not want him at all.

I’d pay 16 for him. Would definitely want 41 or a F3 back minimum.

Obviously Tigers may hold out, especially when Baker selects Eagles. They don’t need to accept early in the trade period.

I really don’t think Eagles will want to pay 13. They’ll barely want to pay 23. Placing 10 as a marker is pretty funny.

 

[kuhni]

Baker is out of contract, he´d be worth an earlyish 2nd rounder right?

 

[Cobbler]

Baker is out of contract, he´d be worth an earlyish 2nd rounder right?

Yep. Should be. Pick 23 is the right pick.

Even if we do give up 10 it 100% comes with a 2nd coming back.

 

[Danny82]

What’s with the Pickett talk back in here? Is there any official update or anything? Just reading back now and can’t see any links to anything

 

[thistimeforsure]

Off the site for a couple of days and come back to Pickett is back on! I will be back post GF to see that all of Pickett, Warner and Bolton are on!

The decade of dominance has begun!

Richmond wanting more than pick 6 for Rioli????? Delusional.

 

[thistimeforsure]

At the end of the day if freo over pay they over pay….the draft is a lottery

Lol and trades aren’t ?

What a crock of shit

If you can’t fleece GC, what even is the point of being a list manager?
