I just don't think there would be a material change in his value

Hawks fans are so delusional lol, honestly have a think about it. Whether we can compete or not we’re trying to win a flag next year of which Smith is critical. Why would we give him up a year early for a future pick we can’t even use right now, making us worse and the team whose future pick we’d have, better. Obviously in that scenario we’d prefer the extra year of Smith and if he wanted to go to the hawks trade him for the exact same pick next year at minimum?
You can be biased but use your head a bit ffs, tell me how that makes sense for us? If you want him this year you pay up with assets we can use.

What’s biased about saying “there’s an offer on the table, Dogs will take it or they won’t”?
Have you seen anyone saying Dogs will take it, or that it’s definitely happening?
All I’m seeing in here is strawmen arguments and hissy fits at the mere suggestion.

Except most don’t think that, don’t be fooled by the vocal minority.
Jai Newcombe Sicily and pick 4 for smith and a future 10th rounder coming back, thats how ludicrous the hawks trade suggestions are,
Would hawks fans trade Jai Newcombe for a future first say pick 8 and a slide from pick 5 to 4

Not sure any hawk in the kozi thread thought it was a 2nd.
Hawks probably still bottom 4 in 2024. Teams around us are getting better and we are not

Would much rather we just wait the 12 months and get him for free via free agency.

He won't be a FA for a few years, but OOC is good enough.

Guess we'll just have to fire up the tank for next year and take him in the PSD.

Rather keep pick 4 and more importantly next year's first. No way is he worth that much. Rather just try to upgrade to pick one or status quo. All parties move on .

Which teams around us are getting better?
Would Smith make us better than we would be without him, assuming we factor in whatever picks we use on him can no longer be used elsewhere?

That probably opens him up for us to be in the mix for him, although he's not a Free Agent he's just OOC. Which means a trade still needs to be done.
We'll have a lot of money opened up through retirements, the picks, the culture he likes (surf coast lifestyle) plus a guaranteed spot in our midfield/wing rotation.
For a guy like him that wants to be out of the spotlight of Melbourne, that's perfect for him.
lol this is such a sh!t take. It’s like saying “I really want this player… but if we don’t get them we actually win”

Clark played the first six games in the VFL, debuted in the seniors in round 9 v Richmond, played a quarter coming on as sub and then didn’t play at any level for the rest of the season.
He would have most certainly played 12-15 senior games if not for injury.

Just wondering how people value Bailey against a player like Adam Cerra who when out of contract still netted Fremantle pick 6?
Obviously it’ll depend largely on his 2024 season, my bias is obvious so I’ll keep my opinion to myself, I’d be intrigued to see others views.
