Dangerfield was uncontracted and a RFA.Just for reference sake, Peter Bell just rejected an offer that was better than what Adelaide got for Patrick Dangerfield… the best player in the comp.
What a legend.
So the crows matched the offer to force a trade and could have kept him if they didn’t like the offer?Dangerfield was uncontracted and a RFA.
You're not having a very good hour, mate.
1.He has 2 years to go on his contract.It’s almost like you guys think that you can ambush and *******e every club who’s interested in trading for a player from your club.
Hill at 6 would have been high, but I would have been happy if it made the deal go through smoothly. Over that is pure negligent list management.
Yeah same, I hope it falls over and we are left with the second best winger in the comp...Gosh I hope this falls over.
Please keep digging peter
That'd be out-of-contract Free Agent Dangerfield who Geelong low-balled an offer to the Crows for because they had zero negotiation power to effect in a trade.Just for reference sake, Peter Bell just rejected an offer that was better than what Adelaide got for Patrick Dangerfield… the best player in the comp.

Please show us the quotes where we "promised" anything?
Everyone knows that there's absolutely no guarantee that if you try to get someone with multiple years left on their contract that the deal will go through (see Kelly last year, Gibbs when he first tried to get to Adelaide, etc), so no-one's going to be making any promises there.
Hill for one would be well aware of that, if it's true he asked to be traded back to Vic last year, but got knocked back.
If this doesn't go through, the only one he ultimately has to blame for it is himself, as he chose to sign the long term deal he's on, no-one else.
And it's also not true that if this doesn't go through that we "couldn't deliver", as we could have pulled the trigger and paid the insane price Bell is quoted as having demanded, but we chose not to.
Because it would have been irresponsible list management to have done so.
We would have been selling the farm from a trade perspective for someone that's just not worthy of it.
If that means we only get 4 of our 5 trade targets this offseason AND we keep our two first rounders (say 12 and next year's), then I can most certainly live with that.
That will be a very good overall outcome.
If we still manage to get all 5 it could be a phenomenal outcome.
Nah. Just another year of Saints putting big dollar offers out there to see if they can get a player to say "yes". After that, they have no plan, and they certainly don't get deals done.Before Everyone gets on their high horse, I know saints don’t want to give up a future 1st but I think they are going to have too if they want to get this deals done
Without going into the other deals what you've suggested values hill at around 5 to 6. If we go on point value surely 12 and a future second gets it done? It's similar point value were happy to give it up and you still get a top 12 pick.Before Everyone gets on their high horse, I know saints don’t want to give up a future 1st but I think they are going to have too if they want to get this deals done
Freo
In
10 & 12
Out hill & Melbourne 2nd round pick
Saints
In
Hill, Howard, Ryder 29
Out
12 & 18, future 1st
Port
In 18 & future 1st & 2nd rounder (Melbourne)
Out 10 Howard, Ryder & 29
Then saints could go 29 for Jones & 44
23, 22, 21, 22,That'd be out-of-contract Free Agent Dangerfield who Geelong low-balled an offer to the Crows for because they had zero negotiation power to effect in a trade.
Also amusing calling Dangerfield the best player in the comp when he clearly wasn't in 2019, and also wasn't in the year he was traded.
I am thinking you may actually be the brains behind Saints trading team; am I right?

What a legend.
"He has basically said: St. Kilda have attempted to poach a player with two years left on his contract. We like him and you’ll have to pay."
I suggest that if you intend to post on a subject at least have a basic understanding of the facts.
In June 2019 Brad Hill and his Manager informed Fremantle (specifically Peter Bell) that he intends to move back to Melbourne at the end of the season. His Manager, with Bells knowledge, subsequently shopped him around and he accepted St Kilda's offer.
That is not poaching!!!!!!
Danger was a restricted free agent Brad isn't So not comparable trades . Patrick would have cost the earth as a contracted player.Just for reference sake, Peter Bell just rejected an offer that was better than what Adelaide got for Patrick Dangerfield… the best player in the comp.
What a legend.
Let me guess - you have no evidence - but its the vibe hey.We don’t know if that’s the order. We don’t know when St. Kilda was involved. I think it was likely that the offer came before Hill and Young informed Freo that he would request a trade to Victoria. You apparently don’t.
Hill’s reasons for going back to Victoria aren’t compelling. Money seems to be the overriding factor.
You're kidding right? Who outside of the Essendon bubble praises Dodoro?Love the Victorian media
Fremantle play hardball: Unreasonable
Essendon play hardball: GOOD ON YOU
Also quite amusing when you add it to their shoddy treatment of the contracted players on their list who they want to shove out the door. List management seems an utter shambles.Why are we even still arguing here??.
This trade is done, as in its not happening.
We keep one of the best wingers in the AFL while we can still trade him next year (if he still wants to go) with all the same conditions in place.
Meanwhile the aints get.... hmmm well continued to be known as pretty much a try hard pathetic minnow club that can’t back up its own words with actions.
Every single player agents will know now don’t bother with the aints cause they just talk
Honestly, do you think everyone should be waiting till the deals done to be measuring dicks?
