List Mgmt. Cam McCarthy Requests Trade to WA

[Docker Dolph]

Their public position has to be that.

By the time it's over they'll be saying things like "it was a deal that was too good to ignore" and "we understood the unique position Cam was in and accommodated his request once a very good offer came through that protected the future interests of GWS".

Why would you keep a player on your list that doesn't want to play for your club? If they want to play hardball, Freo will simply shaft them when the time comes, and his contract is up.

How?

Look if he really wants freo the giants and freo will get it done. But as a contracted player we will aim for overs. The twitter feed is part of it.

How will freo make us pay?

Ding ding ding. Winner right here.

Thanks Ross

If it was Ross it would have ended with:

"They could be on the ****ing moon for all I care"

*typo edit.

You a PR guy?

 

[Allikat]

GWS have Cameron, Patton, and Stewart as key forwards. McCarthy is probably just ahead of Stewart, but still. We need key forwards, they need ruckmen.

First rounder + Clarke for McCarthy is more than fair.

And Tomlinson sometimes plays as their 3rd tall

 

[Arcassius]

Couple of misdemeanors perhaps? Nightclub fight, car crash, hanging aroubd with underworld figures during the finals so GWS part ways with him and we pick him up cheap cheap?

I kid, I kid...

Spotted having a beer with Toby ****ing Greene...

Why do they care about public opinion? They don't even have fans lolll

 

[PurpleWizard]

Every player is for sale for the right price. Just like Boyd last year, if we offer GWS something substantial they'll change their stance. I don't think our first pick (19) and Clarke is enough. If we could somehow reshuffle our picks and get a pick closer to 10-14+ Clarke, I feel our chances are then likely.

 

[Nickos66]

Except they've come out and categorically rejected it. Doesn't seem they are even looking for a good deal

Trade posturing. It's begun, don't think for a second that this is the end of it.

True, but we are in the top 5 for sponsorship in the league so need to keep them happy.(or were the last time i checked last year)

Now that's not nice.

 

[apuchar]

Only risk is if they use this trade request to make a stand.

Freo would simply offer up next to nothing, and make him walk into the pre season draft, where you would get nothing. Its in both parties interest to get this done.

 

[Nickos66]

The Pre-season draft is simply not an option.

 

[Colonial]

As i said a deal will be done and itll be done to benefit the club who still has a two year contract on him. Offering him 700k a year shows you guys want him badly as well.

As for the threat yep offer us barely nothing and we will look at other teams (west coast is in wa)

 

[MadDocker]

They also have a lot of forwards. Supply and demand. Good luck supplying into a 2 team state when only 1 team are interested.

Contracted players can't do that. He'd have to wait till 2017

 

[malpaso]

I'd love to know why Cam signed a 2 year deal with them earlier. Boggles the mind.

 

[Carnthedockers]

I understand that, thats why im saying the deal should be done this year, otherwise Freo will play nasty come 2017.

How's that funny? They're a new club from a traditionally non-footy state. Reminds me of our WACA days now look at us.

A lot of your posts are heart achingly similar to some of the ones made by those chardonnay snobs that live over in the leafy greens.

Please don't put our club in the same category as GWS.

They have been afforded so many things, we can only have dreamt of back when we started. And there is nothing wrong to live in the 'leafy greens'.

 

[mayne iac]

Rejecting a deal worked well for us last year.

I hope you were kidding, Griffen was ok in his time but pretty weak now. Pick 6??
Its ok, Carlton thought they did well in the Judd trade.....

 

[Taylor]

Unless his contract was front-loaded, which it may have been for us to meet the cap requirements and maintain a war chest.

I expect him to sign a new deal spreading out his payments as we see fit with more years on the end.

That'd certainly be playing the long game!
