Speculation Chad Warner [OOC 2025]

[THE_GUN]

That values Warner at a top 4 pick and a pick 7-10ish. If you wont take that then clearly you guys are either unreasonable or are happy to forgo the trade bounty for another chance at a premiership, id prefer the premiership if it was me.

I hope we leave Warner alone this year, should be gettable with our 1st pick alone next year

Will they have the cap space ?

Bolton $1.2 mil
Warner $1.5
Brayshaw will be looking for a massive upgrade just to name 1 and im sure in 2-3 years there will be others looking and saying i want a bit of that.

Perfect fit for West Coast

Warner chokes in big games, and West Coast won’t have any big games . . .

Warner was our best player in the 2022 Grand Final.

 

[Madas]

West Coast bring Baker, Bolton & Graham this year and use next year's trading multiple future picks for Warner.
Talk about fast tracking a rebuild. Quality players still with plenty of years ahead of them.

You know you can get some marks by showing your workings out even if you get the answer wrong?

 

[freo_leo29]

Is there a reason West Coast fans think he would choose them other than having the picks to pay for him?


Has got a core group of Sharks boys at Freo that he is mates with at Freo that I'm sure he'd love to play with

Would freo even get close to the $$$ west coast will have on the table ?
Probably looking at around 8 years $12 mil if he was to move today

Money probably a big part of it

 

[freo_leo29]

I guess money is a thing but this trade period is too close to that grand final heartache, it would be too big a factor weighing on his mind to go for money over potentially challenging

Maybe next year, looks like it would be a next year request anyway

Its not like the Eagles will be at the bottom forever, hes still young, he will be around playing good footy when the Eagles are back up the ladder.

If it is next year then that would just about totally rule out fremantle
Both the ability to get the picks as freo would be certain top 4 and Salary cap space
your taking $1.2 mil a year on with just Bolton

Freo would have 3x first rounders next year (if their F1 isn't traded this year)

We may smooth Boltons contract out longer

No no no

You’ll be paying a good chunk of shais salary for us so will have plenty cash for the chad

once again , Thankyou Richmond

Maybe next year but right after a GF heartbreak i dunno

emotion is a pretty strong thing and trade period is in 6 days

Not happening mate unless you clean out all your picks
9+ 16 buys you shai and his tattoo's no salary

3 x 1st rounders between 15-20 doesnt buy you pick 3
Swans will want top 5 pick which freo wont have but eagles will

* Also next years draft is pretty crap after 10

Youll have to pay Brayshaw next year too with his new contract next year too, he will get big offers to go back to Vic no doubt that youll have to contend with.

You cant match what we can pay, its just not possible, doesnt matter how much smoothing out you do.

Most clubs automatically increase players wages in line with the salary cap increase, 2 clubs dont. West coast and Essendon, combine that with our lack of senior players in their prime to pay big money to, we just have so much money going around its ridiculous

It's part of the reason Pickett is so much better with Bolton. Bolton and Chad are very similar IMO and play a decent enough split of forward/mid. Pickett would be like 600-700k cheaper and fill the exact position we need.

Given Bolton is a given, Pickett is better for us if possible over Warner and even that must be tight cap wise.

Harley Reid is probably going to get 10

Maybe they are going to start going regional

HJ ‘s in Meekatharra would be popular

 

[THE_GUN]

Youre going to be disappointed bud

Nah ill be right , Freo always pay up and pay up big for contracted players

Its #9 + #10 if you want contribution of $200k X 2
#9 ,+ #10 + #16 for Contribution of $300k x 4

And thats even if Shai Bolton wants or gets to Freo
He could easily end up at the eagles as well and he has his medals so cash is KING

I hear we are getting maccas on board with the new McQualter burger

So does that mean Baker is the Burgler that steals the draft pick to give to Richmond
