Game Day 2024 Trade Period

[mattis117]

Hawthorn trading 14 away knowing they would get the deal done for barrass seems like a massive power move by Mitchell. He’s such a dick head.

Not sure Mitchell would be involved at all. JL isn't involved in our trade negotiations.

I would also really like Baker. 10 and 11 for Baker + Bolton. Personally wouldn't feel comfortable with all 3 picks with how the market has developed. If we get 20 back it would be okay aswell. Well done Hawks for spicing things up though wow

finally some drama

 

[The Feeder Club]

Would you do our three picks for Bolton and Baker? I don't really want Baker, but I wouldn't hate the deal.

No. We need an appropriate balance to look to the future. We should have the option to draft in the first round this year. And having at least one live pick in the teens opens up live trading opportunities galore. Baker is good but not worth missing out on having a first rounder in a deep draft

 

[Lach72]

Barrass to Saints for 8?

 

[s_wd6]

Hawks are being dickheads about the trade though. They always knew Barrass was going to cost their first pick and more.

 

[Wallsy78]

Honestly makes sense for Hawks imo. They already have Battle, Sicily and Scrimshaw as excellent 2nd and 3rd key defenders. They have Sam Frost

and James Blanck to play as the stopper against the big key forward. They should be throwing money and draft capital at 1 extra gun mid next year, like LDU. Not a 29 year old with previous back issues

 

[MadMundy]

I'd do 10+11 without 18 for Bolton and Baker, would ideally like to keep one pick.

 

[Tundrawolf]

Barrass will make it to the Hawks but not at pick 14 and thankfully Baker will make it to the Eagles but not for pick 14.

 

[greatgatsby]

I've been on the fence re Baker but the way he plays is a need for us, as is the finals' experience.

 

[PeopleEater]

Might if we swap 30. Puts Bolton at pick 4 on points. 10 & 11 is pick 3 on points

10 & 18 is better than pick 3?

 

[freo_leo29]

Saints did the same to us for Hill

 

[mattis117]

I'd do 10+11 without 18 for Bolton and Baker, would ideally like to keep one pick.

swapping 18 for 20 isn't that big of a deal but helps the tigers save face.

 

[Tundrawolf]

Pick 14 for an uncontracted Baker was always a ridiculous asking price (as much as I would have liked the Eagles to have been stupid enough to give it)

No WC wanted more this is on them

Maybe west coast want 2 future firsts for Warner next year

If Richmond don't get 14, then it limits the options

 

[Lach72]

 

[Azz 27]

Exactly… how does Richmond acquiring 14 come into trade negotiations?

I’m not seeing a positive outcome.

Bolton 14 for
Pick 10,11 and 27?

That would be great, but why would Richmond accept it?

Bolton and 14 for 10, 11 and 18 was what I was thinking

Add late pick swaps. Won't happen now anyway

 

[freo_leo29]

Tigers getting less for baker is not good for us imo


Or maybe this hawks trade gets tigers scared and they do a deal quickly

Think it's the first reasoning, hopeful on the second lol

 

[One_Wing]

Does he want us to hand over 10 and 11 haha

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

Amazing the impact a pick swap or two can have. Suddenly we aren't getting near 14. As others have said, clearly the value of top 14 picks this year is massive. We hold 11 under all circumstances.

Also, lol, Baker is not coming to Freo, just means Richmond get an actual appropriate price, not something insane.

 

[Lach72]

Heh

 

[freo84]

Does he want us to hand over 10 and 11 haha

Yeah who's side is this guy on?

 

[Dockernut]

So essentially this has ****ed up Eagles in so many ways hahaha

To the Weagles Board!
