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

[s_wd6]

Swans need a KP backman , so Cox and 9 for the Chad

Joel Hamling is right there

 

[s_wd6]

He’s also been removed from the club website as an assistant. Other rumour is he’s being Scarlett with him.

Isn’t Scarlett the guy that had mad beef with Jordan Clark

 

[FreoBraddles]

Sauce?

Head of Footy from KR Rock radio in Geelong.

And as mentioned, been removed from Geelongs website now (can't say when).

The fact people think Luke Ryan is just choosing to bomb it to packs unilaterally is hilarious. He's a laser the few times he's allowed higher up the ground, and varies the kick-ins when the circumstances call for something different.

Most importantly, a kick-in is just about the most controlled environment a team has. If JL didn't at least approve of it (if not actively encourage and instruct it), he'd say someone else takes the kick-in or to stop bombing to packs. And it would happen.

Reality is nobody really scores from kick-ins. We're a low scoring team from kick-in, at 3 points per game (rank 16th). Port are the highest with...5.9. It appears obvious that our philosophy regarding kick-ins is "a boundary stoppage outside d50 is a good result, anything better is a bonus".

thanks Casey...
So much stupidity focussed on Luke!
Players dont last a week if theyre doing there own thing.
Luke does the job hes been given.
All Australian Gem!

Yep.
I may have it completely wrong, but I recall found junk food wrappers in his car, so instantly had it in for him.

Would hate for him to look in Darcy’s car…

 

[Dayts]

It wasn't me, it was Josh Gabelich.

Do we rate Gabelich?

He’s no click baiter right

 

[Madas]

I’ve always liked Baker as a player and god damn we need someone like him particularly given his finals experience
Probably the closest thing to a Zorko we could hope for , just gives his all every game and isn’t soft

Hope he isn’t silly enough to waste his last years at that shit pile down the road

 

[mayne iac]

This is a trade targets thread mods!!! it's stressful enough having to live through the anticipation of next week without having to read all of this Luke Ryan crap.

 

[oldgoat]

I feel like we were preparing ourselves for a mighty crack at Logan and Warner.

Then Treacy came on and Bolton enquired and we pivoted.

Baker has added intrigue.

Pickett has muddied the waters and there’s still Chad.

They may see Chad and Bolton as similar? So no rush on Chad and may wait until after next year.

Grab us a Bolton. Throw picks at Pickett.

Not the end of the world.

BOWL us a Bolton, PICK Up a Pickett?
Collars, Feathers ready?
In WalBells We Trust!

Without wanting to stoke any fires, Josh Gabelich mentioned as a passing shot at the end of the crunch time show (right after someone brought up trade radio) that, and I quote, "don't rule out Kossie Pickett moving clubs".

There, good luck sleeping.

 

[oldgoat]

3 odd months ago it was said that we are gonna have a busy trade period. 1 week out and it looks like only Shai

Then we'll still have a bunch Picks!
Lay a bet for Bolton, Pickett, Baker and Warner and worst case? end up with Bolton!
Punters wetdream.

He is clearly going to Weags. If he put his profession above the club he supported as a kid he would have nominated Fremantle at the start like Bolton did. The only reason to wait for an Eagles coach appointment is if you intend to go there.

Ladies and gentlemen, we’re back.

yeh look he probably is but I wouldn’t
be a Freo supporter if I didn’t dare to dream of things I can’t have

 

[Joao]

Yeah he's fine. Probably doesn't do the volume of some others but I think he is generally reliable.

 

[Dockeroo]

Interesting look at the number of picks in each round of last years draft.

2023 National Draft:
Round 1: 29 picks (1-29)
Round 2: 15 picks (30-44)
Round 3: 8 picks (45-52)
Round 4: 7 picks (53-59)
Round 5: 5 picks (60-64)

Reinforces the laziness of people in media saying trade someone for “a first rounder”

Almost half the draft was first rounders last year!!

Someone post that message from Clark about not wanting to die in a nursing home during Covid. It's art.

 

[Vimal Anand]

He’s got us taking Sam Lalor at pick 12 and Jesse Dattoli at pick 30.
Would be a decent result I reckon.

No ollie hannaford in the top 30.

Lalor looks an absolute weapon I would be very surprised if he fell to 12. Hard to pass that up if it happened

Then it will be very similar to what Chris 25 told sometime earlier .. gun mid with first and Dattoli with 27

If kossie is really back in the picture don’t think need to worry about the draft too much

If Whan (I think is a mid) and/or Robinson project as first rounders, I'd be surprised if we went a pure mid in the first round if we keep a pick this year.

 

[Joao]

See you at 7am (5am) for Trade Radio everyone.

 

[apuchar]

See you at 7am (5am) for Trade Radio everyone.

Nah. But we will be relying on your updates.

 

[Ge3ks]

Nah. But we will be relying on your updates.

Agreed. Joao can take one for the team. I'd rather keep my sanity.

Question for the draft nerds here.
If academies had been around in 2015, would we have had priority access to Callum AhChee?
