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

[freo_leo29]

So looks like Emmett, Knobel and Jones all survive

 

[Moist Biscuit]

Awesome to not lose anyone this off season.

Last years squad with another pre season + Bolton is an excellent trade period.

Walls doing the Bolton deal

So West Coast have stockpiled picks to bring in Warner?

What if he doesn’t want to go there?

I think they would be aiming for Warner with just pick 2 or 3, and would be stockpiling for Rodriguez, Curtin (which would then bring his brother into play), Swaddling. Very good crop of WA talent next year. I think they have a F/S (another Bailey Banfield!) and Wes Walley (NGA) who are rated highly as well.

Bailey Banfield was last years draft ags

Charlie Banfield is Drew's son, he's next year

Plus all the picks they get from Essington when Harley FIGJAM leaves.

"We got the F3 which can help us get other deals done"

May not be done on pick trades yet or it may just be for next year


also says we will be asking questions on Chad, as expected

 

[Pusswah]

I'm just thanking **** we didn't get Baker.

 

[Purple Suit]

I'm just thanking **** we didn't get Baker.

I agree, it's not really fair though since he's been an Eagle for 36 hours so I hate him already.

His deal was the funniest of trade week though considering he was out of contract.

Richmond would have to be a red hot chance too - literally have millions of dollars a year to throw at him.

 

[freo_leo29]

If we nail 14 we can say West Coast held that pick too lol

Honestly next year if it only comes down to getting one of Pickett or Warner, Chad can go to West Coast.

I'd take Pickett any day, fills a much greater need for us and the prospect of pairing him up with Bolton in the forward line is too tasty to pass up.

If we could get both that's fantastic, but that's not too realistic is it.

Trade all your players = A

Trade all your picks = A

Do 50/50 like Freo = B

Shit the bed WC style = C

If you read what King and Montagna say it’s hard to see how they didn’t give us A+.

Wes Walley? That kid has got to be a tough nut going through school with that name.

Exactly. We pick up arguably the best player on the market in the most important part of the ground and it's a B. Houston goes to the Pies and it's an A.

I also like graph that slides the picks due to free agency after the trade period and then fails to even reference giving or receiving future picks.

I hope he doesn't go missing during games.

I think A for Collingwood getting Houston is fair. He’s one the best HBFs in the competition - let’s not pretend otherwise.

 

[Heave Ho Bro]

Still mad we downgraded pick 3 to 12 for Matt Owies and Liummmm Baker.

Oh wait, that wasn't us

Yep and if we can nail these 2 top 30 picks in the draft it's a great off season.

 

[CaseySibosadoHOF]

I think A for Collingwood getting Houston is fair. He’s one the best HBFs in the competition - let’s not pretend otherwise.

My argument against that would be I don't think Collingwood fixed what they were worst at - key positions on both ends. Whereas Shai directly addresses our biggest weaknesses, Houston and Perryman kinda just make Collingwood amazing at things they're already good at.

Getting Perryman and Houston while having no current firsts is great business, don't get me wrong. But now they're gonna have to go bargain basement to fix their real issues.
