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

[Snuffaluphagus]

So im only new here but seeing Tigers fans coming in here trying to haggle like we are all list managers and trying to convince us to agree to their pro-Richmond views of how the trade should look is fckn bizarre to me

What is the rationale? Do they think if they can convince us Freo fans to see things their way and agree on a certain set of terms being fair that itll somehow affect the real trade?

"If we can get Freo fans to agree then our list manager will have the blueprint to convince Walls as well! Quick - to the Freo board!"

Do they think the list managers lurk here looking for intel or ideas?

"Cave and give us all your picks or we will keep Bolton!" Yeah, you do that in your imaginary list managers role. Great job buddy

Honestly, while its not the fun answer mostly a lot just like talking about footy. Now, I'm sure even subconsciously a lot think they can convince others they know better and can educate others who don't understand like they do but I think for the most part its fairly innocent motives.

That campaigner is someone you take an instant dislike to to save time

People on x saying they hearing 10 and 11 for Bolton and 14 if that’s the case take it and run and use 14 and 18 to try move up

Would be fantastic so I doubt it

 

[Joao]

Yeah assuming there isn't a chasm between the talent at 11 and 14, that's a good deal for us so I don't believe it.

 

[Ge3ks]

Hang on, that would mean we get Bolton for one 1st, and still have 2x 1sts?

If Richmond don't like 10 & 18 not sure they would like 10 and a three place upgrade.

It's a bit of an easier win for ten and eleven though, from a marketing point of view I mean

Yes, which is why it won't happen

 

[freocuz]

I don’t believe it, but maybe it never was 10 & 18 in isolation from us. Maybe it was always 10 & 18 with 20/23 coming back, and Richmond wanted 11 so we’ve agreed to let 11 go only on the basis of a 3 pick downgrade.

After all, no-one who has been involved in the negotiations has given a definitive. It’s only been media speculation.

Who am I trying to kid.

I'm blocked but can someone do a search on his timeline and find the time he said "Hogan isn't a key forward", that Fremantle should get Ben Brown as well.

Pick 10, 11 and 30 for Bolton and 14 (and maybe later pick swaps no one cares about) wouldn’t surprise me.

Richmond would care more about their overall result so if Pick 30 gets them Pick 6 and Pick 23 from Gold Coast it could be a winner for them despite letting us off a little lighter than expected.

 

[Purpletown]

Assuming we get Bolton tomorrow, I’m looking forward to being told by Tiger fans all the way through 2025 that the only reason we made finals was because of Bolton.

We might need some sort of tiger repellent here.

Common sense seems to work very well as a Tiger repellent.

It's nice having you back big fella

In a limited capacity unfortunately

[Carnthedockers]

Hello stranger, its been a while…

Any news mate? I’ve been so bored on here I’ve turned to reverse trolling Tiges fans about moral corruption.

Save me!!

Would love to mate. Unfortunately that ship has sailed.

You know what would work way better at shutting him up? Having nobody bite on his stupidity.

 

[Ge3ks]

Yes leave that attention seeking turd unread. No-one cares.

 

[Lach72]

10, 18 and 30 with Bolton and 20 coming back our way values him at pick 4

It's not a reasonable offer, its as good as we should be doing already. Any more is negligent.

This isn't some 4 x AA or dual B&F winner. This is a 1 time AA who can be brilliant but also a complete non-factor. 10+18.

I’d offer pick 10 and an IOU to Richmond for the 2038 season….

I think he mixed up the words spoon & flag.

 

[pavstar]

Whoever thinks 10 and 18 is overs to pay for Bolton genuinely has no idea what they are talking about

This sounds like what Geelong told the Eagles about the Tim Kelly trade…

He’s stupid enough to do so.
