This just reaffirms he is going nowhere for me.
Are you an AFL scout and/or list manager?
Fiorini is just ok. He's not overly fast, isn't physical for a guy of his size, his skill is B grade (good, not great), isn't a big accumulator, doesn't have a huge tank and isn't a great mark. He's a C+/B- grade in lots of things but B+ at nothing type of player.
I'm not really sure he's one that moves the needle for anyone, if it's between him and Kennedy I'd probably prefer to keep Kennedy given his versatility.

I don’t know why this specific trade has me so irate, but if we give even a single first round pick for this guy I’m driving my car through the princes park merch store
Doubt it, but not suggesting its him
Think the player is closer to home, only a "short" distance away

No deal thanks Port. He's good but not that good.

If it's Fiorini I don't mind it. Solid C/B grader across a number of positions - mid, wing, half back. Reminds me of the Acres trade tbh.
He'd be a good complement to our midfield rotation. A touch faster, can apply pressure at stoppage, and better in defensive transition than the Hewett/Kennedy/Cerra/Cripps types. If he's half back, that gives more wing minutes to Ollie/Doc/Moo. Then vice cersa if he's on the wing. Can kick a goal and uses the ball reasonably well in general. He's a lefty. Also has an Italian last name.

I'd say Fiorini is Pies bound

Oooooooh. I don't mind it. Can't imagine they'd need the cap space though. Do you know something we don't?
Not the Tigers variety

Concerned the Carlton Crew in Lygon St will not be able to pronounce the first name...

If we’ve convinced Houston that Carlton is the place for him then I can’t see us backing away from the trade. That would be a bad look. I also don’t see any world in which we part with 2 first round picks for him. That’s overs.. Port know it and we know it. It’s their initial demands.. we’ll meet somewhere in the middle- a first and a second for Houston and a third or something along those lines. North were always just being used mainly by Port as leverage.
As for Fiorini.. he’s a handy player but I’m not sure he’s a good fit for us. From memory he’s tried to get to the Pies a couple of times in the past so I think Arrow is probably on the mark saying Collingwood.

Guaranteed the Carlton crew can’t pronounce his first name

Can they fit him in with the Perryman contract?
GC last year contracts tend to be big

If we give up both firsts for Houston I’ll be done with the club

Port don't want to trade him so ask for a ridiculous price.
Tbh sounds like, cya next year when we do this again but this time they come to the table

Caleb Daniel?
The request isn't unreasonable for an All-Australian in his prime. Just not sure we need him that much.
If that was the case I think he would already have nominated us. Port don't need to meet us in the middle. He's said he's happy to stay and thanks to their failure to nab Perryman and Cummings they need him to.
If we were losing an All Australian in his prime who is under contract for two picks outside top 10 we would be fuming.
Suns probably wear some
