Tigers asking for 6 and 13 for Rioli. Are they crazy?

Hi guys. I come in peace
What are the general thoughts on the Bolton move around here? Pretty sure you're being extorted by Richmond

Richmond are at the centre of a frustrating hold-up in this year’s trade period as they refuse to budge on three of the biggest deals of 2024.
The Tigers are negotiating deals to trade out Liam Baker, Shai Bolton and Daniel Rioli to West Coast, Fremantle and Gold Coast respectively.
It could lead Adem Yze’s team with an incredible draft hand, but they’re haggling over picks has haltered any deals with no movement on a stagnant Wednesday frustrating pundits.....

"a stagnant Wednesday frustrating pundits"

Waiting for tomorrows headline...

"Stubborn Freo logjam the draft threatening to break up families!"

Win Win?
Best avoid a bidding war.
Sure we can agree on that?

Massive value for a guy who goes missing. Even if super keen - adding 18 is where I would dig my heels in

This years draft is quite strong with the top 10 all at Brayshaws level.

No deal. We are taking both and leaving the Eagles with our scraps.

4 years contracted for a guy we’ve been chasing for years and fills a massive hole in the list for us. 10 and 18 is fair. Can use 11 on the draft.

Will be pissed off if we give up 10+11

Hamish?

To be fair, we don't. We beat both grand finalists this season with one of the youngest sides in the competition. To add to that, it was our youth who drove that, not Fyfe, Walters and JOM. We will be heavily in premiership calculations in 2025 regardless of Bolton being here.

We don't NEED Bolton next year but he'd be nice to have. So would the kids those 3 early draft picks in a strong draft could bring us or whatever we turn those picks into. We're in a very strong position to build the side and getting Bolton does not equal a premiership.

It helps but the biggest factor is another pre-season and experience in all of our young blokes. The myth we NEED to deal with Richmond and throw whatever draft picks at them is perpetuated by Richmond. Freo are actually in an incredibly strong position to attack next season and walking from the Bolton deal is a real option.

If Shai had have been with us this year we would have been in the Grand Final.

Also, how the hell are you guys considering trading pick 14 for an uncontracted Baker?

 

[Dockernut]

If Shai had have been with us this year we would have been in the Grand Final.

I think we would have made the 8, but I don’t think Shai quite gets us there. Look at Brissy’s stacked forward line. We need Shai and more methinks.

Also a better coach.

then 10 and 11 would be "start the car" value!
Ahhh...wouldacouldashoulda is pure wisdom.

If things play out as expected with prospective trades I think the Crows make the biggest gain on the rest of the comp this off season adding 3 handy role players in areas of weakness all for 1 2nd Rd pick and a chunk of salary that they can spare easy enough , take a top 5 pick at the draft and bring in a 1st Rd’ish F/S

If they get Sid Draper at 4 they might surprise a few people next year I think

Guessing. I'm by the pool in Thailand.

Nice: Permanent summer here.

Players like Shai are valued at two 1st rd picks. Any 2 of those 3 we hold is good deal.
A proven elite player, he is the perfect fit for Fremantle.
Shai will bring us that premiership with all other things being equal.
Start the car indeed.
I just got email from club telling me my membership payment is coming out on November 15; I’m almost inclined to tip ‘em.

I hope Wallzy doesn't go into the 2025 season thinking Warner is a done deal. Eagles will throw everything at Warner to keep HR (lol) happy and prevent him from leaving. If our goal is to target Warner, moving a pick into next year will help make us more attractive to deal with at the trading table for Sydney. Alternatively, using the same pick this year to clear Bolton's cap space will also make it easier to match Eagle's salary offer for Warner. Each option is a huge gamble. Although the gamble may blow up in our face, I guess we can take comfort in the fact that if Warner falls through it makes Kozzie a likelihood.
