if it's only a money thing i still think the eagles are way out in front. All the high paid players are coming to the end of their careers and very few on the list who deserve a huge pay rise at the moment

So current rumor is Freo have offered a 6 year 10 mill deal (so like 1.65 mill a year) . Freo will look to trade 2 of this years first rounders out for draft picks in 2025 and basically go to Sydney with a offer od 3 top 20 picks in 2025 + 2026 1st rounder for Warner
Feel like it will be a race between Freo and Sydney. Id expect Sydney cant get even close to matching that financial offer so would expect he goes. Would be turning down a good 5 mill if he stayed at Sydney in all reality

Will definetly find out after 2024 draft period however. What you do this year will define a fair bit
If the dockers have been given indication by the Chads manager that its happening then Freo must move atleast 1 and probably 2 picks this year into 2025.
This is going to be a very expensive trade if warner decides he wants to move and the number posted above wouldnt be too far off the required $$$ to move him and sydney to let him go but they will be asking for 2 top 10 draft picks and 1 will need to be early. 3 x late 1st wont get it done but freo have the chance to get it done
Trade 2 picks into next year and use the 3rd pick at the draft along with the St Kilda 2nd

The Freo's 2 earliest firsts and their 2nd swapped with our next year for our future first may benefit both teams.
Still leaves them with a first this year for Baker and 2 firsts for the Chad next year

The article doesn't say Freo are offering that. A journo created it as a hypothetical scenario

Nah the contract offer is correct in regards to rumor. Trade part is hyperbole
Bakers not going anywhere
West Coast wont help Freo get Warner and they will be putting their hat into the Warner ring as well
Eagles will have a top 3 pick which trumps 3 mid-late picks ever day of the week
pretty sure he was at Willeton
and it means they wont be taking Bolton or Baker?
I think Freo have specifically been after Warner for a long time because of his genuine links to Freo. I don't think he is particularly home sick, and he would be offered similar coin all across Australia.
This.
It was Jon Ralph pulling figures out of his arse on the Mid-Week Tackle
He also said Richmond would get overs for Rioli and Baker.
Rioli yes because he's contracted.
Not for Baker.

Yep. He grew up around Willeton.
Jackson's older brother Zac has a Masters in Architecture, so there is some decent IQ in the Jackson DNA.
Hard to believe, even with Jackson, Sharp, Warner, Walker and Rivers playing in the same side, EF colts missed out on playing finals that year from memory.
If the trade suited us enough(overs) and we are convinced that we arent going to get Warner to come due to his links/friendships with freo, I could see us doing some business.
Going by recent trade attempts, future picks arent worth that much anymore and id like to think we are still looking at splitting picks and trying to get more first rounders in
I'm all for the Chad but that Fox thing looked and sounded like 100% pure speculation to me.
At best you might say Landsberger or whever it was has heard we're into Chad but water is wet etc.

Lots of smoke around this one, many (but not all) of the risk factors are there if you are a Swans fan - Mrs from WA, rumours of a big contract at an up and coming side, mates at the club, and the old ‘we will think about it when the time comes but I love the club’ line.
No doubt he loves the Swans and has good mates there too, but the media will be pouring the fuel on the longer it goes.
Personally whilst I’d love to get him, can’t lose if we keep the 3 first rounders either.

I think there are two possible options here.
If Swans win the flag, he asks for a trade at the end of the year.
If Swans don't win the flag, he stays another year to try for a Sydney flag.
This is what I get, reading between the lines, of Chad's statements.
Sydney Flag, then 2 first for Chad.
