Traded Brad Hill [traded with future 3rd to St Kilda for Acres, #10, #58, future 2nd and 4th]

[raffrox]

I found three different source that said Bell wanted two first or Hill would not be traded.

AFL trade period 2019: Bradley Hill St Kilda, Fremantle, AFL draft, Liam Henry, pick swaps | FOX SPORTS

St Kilda and GWS have completed a pick swap that may have a significant impact on Fremantle’s bargaining power for Brad Hill.

coupler.foxsports.com.au

I can find about 47 articles that are saying Brad Hills new contract is worth 900k per year but if you say that to a Saints supporter apparently it's not true.

 

[bird_man]

fu** me you've changed!

A little bit of reality kicked in???

What do you mean?

I've been nothing but real all the way man

 

[Dockers26]

Why would my club care, if as you say, Tom Morris has a relationship to my club?

I will say, you may have to be careful what you post.

Read into that what you want.

Thanks for the heads up re being careful, you might want to send out a blanket post across BF advising the same. Cheers!

Update, was referring to his relationship to St Kilda

 

[joop]

Your own history suggests you probably wouldn't do either?

Geeze.

Tom Morris is an interesting one. I've been googling him and his articles for the last hour. His reporting makes it seem like he is still employed by St Kilda. How many twitter accounts is he responsible for? His own, fox sports, st kilda? He seems to quote himself quite a lot using other alias' or hats. The articles he has written in the last two weeks read as if he is writing for Fox news rather than Fox Sports. They are highly partisan and serve someone's agenda but I'm not certain of who. My guess is that one person he serves is Colin Young. He dances to Young's beat and gets fed news and gossip from Young. One article looked like he passed on a message from Colin Young threatening Fremantle.

He also has written a strange piece about Blake Acres. The Blake Acres piece seemed to be reassuring Saints supporters that Blake wasn't in St Kilda's plans going forward so not to sweat it if he goes to Fremantle.

Please PM me if I am out of the loop and missing something.

There's a lot of gloating to be done yet, even if it ends up a completely fair deal there'll be Saints fans in here claiming they 'bent us over' no doubt.

ahh 'Bent us over' has been coming all thread from you guys. No matter what was happening the gloating was about Bell. Enjoy pick 10 mate!

We'll do that along with Acres, 58 and your future second.

Nah, just a Vic conspiracy.

Come on mate, both fans have been doing this don't act like its all coming from Saints fans.

Fair enough, there's been plenty from both sides. I'm over the shit slinging, it's so petty. And it sounds like both clubs will get a fair deal based on the current rumour.

St Kilda midfielder Blake Acre agrees to join Fremantle to unlock Bradley Hill trade deadlock

Saint set to pick Hill trade deadlock by agreeing to Fremantle move

www.foxsports.com.au

Within a few hours of being advised [by his manager, Colin Young, presumedly?]to agree to a trade, he was on a plane to Perth, where he grew up and has family and friends.
Foxfooty.com.au understands St Kilda told Acres - predominantly via Young - he would be unlikely to earn a new contract beyond 2020. The club also made it clear the ball-winner would be no certainty to start the season in the seniors. [Why would St Kilda or Acres or his management CY be airing this, wouldn't they want to be posturing outwardly to Freo that he is a valued contracted player?]

Acres confided in those close to him that he had no choice but to explore the Dockers option but was deeply hurt by St Kilda’s manoeuvre, which will take him away from close friends and a club which has been his home for six years. He is said to feel as if the club backed him into a corner, but is also pragmatic about the opportunities a fresh start will bring. [Why is Acre's or those close to him giving an emotional play by play on Acre's, or is this just like a New Idea piece?]

Yep, Essendon win trade week every year.

 

[CakeEater]

Yep, Essendon win trade week every year.

Its why they are giving us Heppell for 58- they feel like being benevolent.

 

[Barrysballs]

Yep, Essendon win trade week every year.

Thanks Captain Obvious why else would it be called the Essendon Cup

Picks 10,58 a future second round pick and Blake Acres to Fremantle B.Hill to Saint Kilda along with a mystery dip late round pick.

Thats a reasonable deal for Freo.

 

[iBeng]

Thats an...interesting exchange.

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

Problem with this deal for Freo is Peter Bell probably does lose a bit of credibility from a fans PR view following his strong initial stance, but I think they will be fine in the long run, if Acres can live up to his potential.

 

[kozi]

St Kilda paid a ridiculous price.

There's a future third going to St Kilda here as well, it's been misquoted a couple of times already.

waiting for AFL House...
