He’s finished high in the b&f every year for Richmond. Basically matching Switta’s output for us this year but for 4 years in a row.
That’s pretty decent for a role player so he instantly improves us with Bolton and we have a real chance at winning the whole thing in 2025.

Pick 9 just cost melbourne a future first, 2x seconds, a third and a 4th.
He's a gun
Typical Essendon, trading out of the superdraft for lots of pick in another one.
Seems a massively excessive cost tbh. Very good trade for Essendon. Might even be a good trade for Melbourne if they use the pick well, even though the trade looks a touch lopsided right now.

As long as we dont move from 10 and 18 it’s the right thing to have done.
More than I’d like to pay, less than they’d like to receive.

Sucks for them, They did this because they expect a bid for Kako to come before 9, and it was too hard to trade up.
Pavlich didn’t want to come here
100%
And not just any F1, one that could land anywhere from 5-15 you would think. Likely closer to 5 than 15 though.

The fact he agreed to a dinner with some of the guys says he wasn’t completely against it but I get your point
Bombers suddenly have a lot of picks for sale, they have way too many points for Kako
If dees love this draft so much, they could've had 2 picks for kozzy ffs

I wouldn't feel sorry for them at all. They've just got themselves and extra first rounder even though it's next year and will still get Kako and likely have points left over to take additional picks in this year's draft.
They'd probably rather a pick before Kako but three first rounders in two years is exactly what a list lacking talent really needs.
The very worst it would be is 10+11. We have come out and said that we would walk away. You do realise that 10+11 is a value at pick 2??
The Jackson trade was 15+F1+F2 > Jackson > 41, 57
Jackson is worth much more in a trade than Bolton and also this current draft is much higher rated than the Jackson draft.
Just based on your trade the equivalent would be:
11+F1+F2>Bolton, 51, 61
As we can’t trade out F1/F2 together and 51 is much higher than 41, the equivalent trade would be more like:
11, F1, 30 > Bolton, 24, F4
Even then 11 is much higher than 15 obviously so really the equivalent trade would be:
11,F1 > Bolton, 24
All this stuff going on is posturing and keeping us all engaged. Richmond want 10+11 and we have offered 10+18.
Your deal if you replace 11 with 18 will be closer to the mark:
10,18,F2> Bolton, F3 (from another club), 51
I’m assuming Richmond manage to get in one of their other many trades an F3.
He wants WA and nominated WCE as his preferred club. Doesn't mean he won't play for Freo.
Deal from me. Better to just get crap done instead of bickering like my divorce.
Do you think we had an idea that all these pick swaps would be happening and waiting it out before committing 10/18 to Bolton.
May be a chance to swap 11/18 around for a few f1 etc and just float the idea of Bolton being a 10 & 30.

Two firsts, one near the top and one near the end, for the player and a pick around 30 is the going standard rate for contracted players like Bolton.
That's #10, #18 and #30 for Bolton and #20/#24 one of those two since Richmond have no pick between #24 and fifty

10 & 30 IMO is laughable and I think anyone who's watched enough Bolton footy knows that.
Respectfully you've probably not seen him play enough. I think he'll contribute really well to Freo. The two of them together would really make Freo an interesting team to watch for me and I think they might help push top 4-6.
Baker will get to WC. They’ll all go down on the FOXTEL viewing timeslot on Wed afternoon/evening. With player managers and List Managers running around to create heightened tensions.
11 for 17 and a F1.
Who says no??
Based on the Melbourne, Essendon trade Geelong would need to add more. I expect Geelong to finish top 4 next year
Essendon gives pick 9 and a future third-round pick
Melbourne gives pick 28, 40, 46, 54, 65 and its future first-round pick
yeah given what Melbourne have given the Bombers we could make out like bandits there, and given their age profile, they’re ones who could drop done the ladder dramatically. Even with Rohan, Tuohy and Hawkins going they’re quite old

The club continues to basically publicly say 11 is off the table and every pick swap proves their point more. I'll be disappointed if they fold now

I get it, it's just his best hasn't been seen recently in a poorly performing side. I imagine the club see's Bolton (position need) and Baker (intensity and mongrel) as integral to add to what we already have on field. I tend to agree, although I'm put off by Baker choosing WCE.
