Game Day 2024 Trade Period

[FreoBraddles]

Done deal.

And yes, Colin Young is there.

 

[arsesmart]

People say there was no incentive for the Tigers to do the deal early, but really that's so short sighted. They basically haggled for days and days for it to essentially turn into a few extra grams of trade captial.

Richmond could've just done the deal for 10&18 early last week and had a whole lot more time to do other deals.

I have never seen so many opposition flogs in our trade thread telling us what to think

the lachie neale war of 2018 was probably worse

Walls leaving already? This generation just does not want to do a full days work.

 

[Gussman]

First trade period in a while our future 2nd isnt traded off if I'm not mistaken.

Walls leaving already? This generation just does not want to do a full days work.

He just won us the 2025 flag, he's going to the pub for lunch.

We got one of the elite centre forwards in the comp. I'm stoked.

Article than says.

Richmond offered 10,11,18 for Bolton and 14 on Tuesday. Freo said no, we need more.

West Coast made play on Wednesday.

Richmond then add F3 to deal proposed on Tuesday.

Freo agree, trade done.
Eagles play made Richmond concede what we wanted.

Thanks for coming.

Sounds like payback for forcing them to pay more for Baker to me.

 

[chinggis77]

Anyway, back onto West Coast:

Worth noting that the big difference makers in recent years, game breakers, or players that have won grand finals have been top 5 picks (WC just gave up a guaranteed Top 5 pick): Bontempelli (Pick 4), Petracca (Pick 2), Daicos (Pick 4), Dusty (Pick 3), Ashcroft (Pick 2). Could add De Goey (Pick 5) and pre-drama Oliver (Pick 4, was crucial in the Dees premiership)

Hopefully they instead get another mediocre player (Chesser) with their pick.

 

[Stuart88]

So if you strip it right back (for shits n gigs) it’s:

Schultz, 11, 32(2023) & 34 >>>> Simpson, Bolton, 14, 37ish(2025)

That right?

 

[Paracleet]

I have never seen so many opposition flogs in our trade thread telling us what to think

Last two big trades were Melbourne. Can be flooded with supporters on your board if they don't exist. We haven't done a notable trade in from a big 4 Vic club since 2006

Yeah but all they really did was bring the Bolton deal up to about market value.

We certainly didn't break up a top 3 draft pick to bring in a role player.

 

[Van_Dyke]

First trade period in a while our future 2nd isnt traded off if I'm not mistaken.

looks to be the first one since 2020. I'm not sure we've used our own second round pick without it being used in some form of trade since 2014 (2015 we used it but only after trading it back and forth with GC)

 

[Ge3ks]

And no players have requested a trade

Rip Bailey Banfield.

We got one of the elite centre forwards in the comp. I'm stoked.

I'd go as far as to say we got the best player in the role in the comp.

Sure, the price was huge, but I think it's worth it. Bolton makes us so much more damaging as a forward line and as a midfield.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

I'd go as far as to say we got the best player in his role in the comp.

Sure, the price was huge, but I think it's worth it. Bolton makes us so much more damaging as a forward line and as a midfield.

Basically him and Rankine are 1 and 2 in the role. He's genuinely elite and I cant wait to watch him work in our team. It's going to be so ****ing good

 

[freoshocker]

It's still early in the trade period, don't count your chickens.

 

[Danny82]

I’d be surprised if there isn’t a pick swap with future 2nd 3rd involved. Will absolutely be burning a hole in their pocket!

Plenty of time to offload it. We can trade it up to and during the draft.

 

[Ge3ks]

Happy Bolton Day Freo

It's gonna be super fun.

He is a genuine, bums on seat type of talent.
