Game Day 2024 Trade Period

Concerning for West Coast if he got the job over Mcqualter

West coast is past concerning, it's full-scale launch the boats mode..

 

[DocT]

Agree, there is plenty of growth within our players that can be brought to the forefront in 2025.
On the other hand we don't have many players who are in decline. Fyfe and Walters definitely fit into that category. JOM and Aish are on the cusp of being pushed out. It's brutal but the sooner we find replacements for all four of them the better.

I think the reality is that none of those four were great contributors in 2024 and there are already replacements in the pipes.

 

[dominguez]

It probably wouldn't take much for many of us to nominate three internal changes that realistically would not only have us playing finals, but in the top 4 this year.

Here's three off the top of my head. Could come up with others too...

• Amiss having an extra preseason
• O' Driscoll developing to be a regular midfield option (not to mention continuity across the season)
• Johnson feeling more at home at the level and the resultant composure improvement

If one of Cox/Pearce/McDonald had an injury free run this year we finish top 4 IMO.

 

[WilloTree]

Yep.

I still think if we hadn't lost Darcy, Pearce and Treacy we would have finished top 4 and played in a Prelim.

I like another analogy...
Theyre on the beach...
And theyve burnt the boats!

 

[Superkoops]

Carlton have basically nothing else to give as it stands though

That’s literally what I said. It is also why I don’t feel it get done. Surely they can get better value out of 3.

 

[dominguez]

Richmond have so much riding on next week.

Is it worth WC, GC and Freo having a chat and agreeing that all 3 won't cave on their best offer close of trade Tuesday? If all 3 clubs hold their ground on Baker/Rioli/Bolton surely Richmond start to sweat and get the deals done Wednesday morning?

Baker is the interesting one. He’s worth pick 20-25 yet somehow he’s being talked about in the 10-15 bracket.

And how is Rioli worth more than Houston or Bailey Smith? Pick 6 for Rioli should have been done days ago, that's a great deal for Richmond.

 

[nurries]

I hope Baker knows now what a dumb organisation he is walking into. A banged up Barass nearly 29, 14 is a fair offer. Should have taken it dropped if for Baker and a future 3rd back and walked away. But they just acted like dumb campaigners and tried to be smart arses

 

[arsesmart]

Who would be telling journos we've put a 10, 11 & 18 package offer in for Bolton and Baker? Wouldn't be monde riche by any chance?

You’re just hating to hate. 14 by itself is not a fair offer for Barrass

It is in this draft

 

[King Huskii]

Reported on zero hanger so maybe not true however Freo have offered 3 first rounds of this year for both Baker and Bolton

 

[FallenZero1977]

The way people are talking about this draft, you can draft a Liam Baker

in about round 3 so hope we don't lose all 3 firsts

 

[Taylor]

Iiiiiiif Freo did trade two of our firsts for pick #3, what if instead of sending that straight to Richmond we see if a club like St Kilda want to dump their picks into it?

Or Essendon want to trade their first this year and next for it?

 

[CapitalA]

You’re just hating to hate. 14 by itself is not a fair offer for Barrass

It is for a 30 year old. Mighht have 3 yrs left in him....

 

[apuchar]

I imagine Hawks are going for a premiership in the next 3 years so they may think it is worth it.

 

[DQ 4EVER]

Ok I’m done, ready to hand over 10 & 11 with a swap of F1s.

In: Bolton, Richmond F1.
Out: 10, 11, Fremantle F1.

Back yourselves in Tigers.

lol,
cool idea

 

[chaosball32]

Reports are we’ve offered 10, 11 and 18 for Bolton and Baker…

10 and 18 for a contracted Bolton is understandable but 11 for an uncontracted Baker? Have we gone mad?

 

[fnerd]

Who’s peddling this rubbish?

Honestly just **** right off with this baker nonsense ,blokes barely worth a pick in the late 20s

Actually sick of freo even entertaining this midget with a bloated sense of self importance

Part of the deal. 10 11 for Bolton 18 for Baker.

 

[Polo342]

10,11 and 18 wouldn't be going without getting something significant back with Bolton and Baker.

In any case i doubt Baker comes to us

 

[apuchar]

I don't rate Baker that highly but our kicking into the forward can be crapola. He does that well.

 

[fnerd]

Don’t care it’s a shit deal.
Don’t want little Liam anywhere near the club now

FFS how many “top blokes/good characters , home by 9 ,short back and sides players do you want??

If the rest of the squad can’t get behind the likes of Andy,Caleb, Hayden, JT , Fyfe, JOM ,Walters for driving standards etc then I suggest there’s a major flaw in the coaching/ management set up
