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

[eastfreo75]

Kinnear Beatson and David Walls have said its a strong draft

2 of the best in the business

With due respects nobody has a crystal ball and can see into the future.

All drafting is intelligent guesses.

 

[Joao]

Nobody is spruiking the absolute top end of the draft, but every one is saying it is deep and even.

Which is perfect when you have no top 5 picks but a bunch in the 10-30 range.

 

[Jezzitizle]

I sat there and watched him tear strips off some young Richmond player for daring to cut in front of him and get his first AFL goal , the whole rest of the Tigers were giving him the ol attaboy and Bolton was going apeshit at the kid …. one of the most floggish things I’ve ever seen a player do in footy

Throwing in the towel when things aren’t going his way is another criticism you hear about him a lot

the showing the ball running into goal bullshit

Maybe we need a bit of arrogance in the team but it’s a pretty delicate balance

Most of the Tiger fans saying we’d be mad not to take this deal spent all of last year hating on the bloke and are secretly chuckling behind their hands

50/50 wether this deal is what everyone hopes for or just another in our long list of trade disasters for mine

He’s the big dog at the Tigers, but will be trying to integrate into a new group.

Hopefully that rounds off any undesirable edges.

Richmond want pick 2. We could do 11 and a future first for 2 and then trade 2 to Richmond for Bolton. Then we still have 12 and 18. We could trade 18 for Brisbane or Geelongs future first and use 12 to Draft Bo Allen.

Just need the other clubs to agree to those terribly one sided deals and we’re sweet!

The fact it’s so even is why I can see us splitting 10 with Sydney or GWS, they both have pretty stacked lists, so if someone they really want is still on the board at our pick, I can see 19 & 22 being offered by them, just depends on if walls thinks two of his targets will still be at those picks or not.

I’d rather trade 11 for a pick this year and next.
Hypothetical 21 and F1 with GWS or 22 and F1 with Swans.

Roll the dice on the death ride!

 

[mayne iac]

Not a. Chance with gws, what sort of madd death ride is that??

 

[thewiz0033]

Yes I was. Not sure if that was the best word but Richmond forcing the hand of Brisbane with a threat to bid on Ashcroft. My point was more about clubs maintaining a decent relationship is important unlike ole mate Silvani at Carlton who went kicking the can down road and p**sing off everyone on the way out.

Don’t see it that way myself. Ashcroft is probably the best in the draft and deserves to go at 1
Richmond can offer to “help” Brisbane by not taking him at 1.

No blackmail just an offer to help

 

[purplerunsdeep2]

Future? As in not be good to go for round 1? Or full recovery isn't possible and retirement may be on the cards?

Because it says season 2024 in doubt but it was posted 10 hours ago. I didn't read it correctly. Not sure why 9news would post it now.

Well thank **** for that.

 

[rgauci]

Click bait from a new network. Is anyone
surprised?

In other channel 9 news released today, man walks on the moon baby!

It was posted in June. Not even close to today. Old mate just didn’t check the date before posting on here

There was a picture of Pearce holding a decent sized Snapper with his arm that was injured. He has a nice scar but I’m sure all will be fine.

How about we stick to 10+18 plus other draft pick swaps and let Richmond do a trade with North. Likely North wait until either that pre-draft pick swap period or a live trade on draft night. Allow Richmond to sweat a bit - get hooked on a certain player that won’t be available at 6 and then trade with North.

We need to keep our F1. If we trade that out Warner is as good as gone.

We need an F1 but not necessarily ours. It’s going to be lower that most anyway and I’d rather Sydney’s.

When they don’t win a final next year they will be 14th at most. It could even be lower and top 10.

I still can’t decide if trading back in your low pick when you were probably set for a worse one will make Sydney feel better.

Hopefully that rounds off any undesirable edges.

Not sure Tigers ever change their spots

Perfectly fine with Bolton having selfish tendencies, we need a bit of arrogance in front of goal.

 

[purplerunsdeep2]

What's with all the love for Allen?

Surely we have more pressing needs with half backs, small and mid sized forwards?

In fairness media outlets repost old articles all the time and when they appear at the front of their queue it is easy to think they might be new.

 

[malpaso]

Darcy picked ahead of Gawn? Good joke. Gawn could miss half the season while Darcy has a career best season and Gawn will still get picked.

Yeah nah, notice how we pantz the Demons even if Gawn is playing..
