The 25 year old rebounding hbf is still out of contract. I believe just 1 year shy of free agency
What is he worth?

You think he’s going to sign a 1 year deal then leave as a free agent the year after?
Noise out West that the Eagles and Hawks are discussing the Barrass deal.
Hawks 1st agreed but the Eagles have asked about a Hawks player. And they need a half back winger.
They have the cap space to turn his head with an offer.
For that to work Eagles would need to add something else to the deal IMO.

He's from WA but he's also a potato so it is not that hard to figure out why the Eagles aren't keen.
You mean a bloke we could just pick up as a DFA, if we happen to be interested?
Iceman!
Brownlow Medallist
He definitely has very very little value but I’m not certain we’d be delisting him.

Really hope he stays, injuries the only thing that has held him back so far.
Hawks will probably give him a bit more time, purely due to his draft position
May still turn it around.
The feeling is growing that the Eagles may cut deep this off season. Up to 10 players turned over.
If that is the case then the club likely will fill the last spots through DFA hopefully training over preseason. Ruscoe a likely candidate to take Rotham's spot at no cost. I suggest there will be others. More than happy to trail DGB as a train on player and give him a shot.
Does he get caught up in the Barrass deal? Maybe. But it wont be a major component IMO.

More then welcome at the Eagles. The style oif player we despetately need at the right age profile. Would take the risk with his injury history too and give him a decent contract

Someones gotta take the salary cap room we have. Dont see why he would be excluded from that question?

Literally every player you trade for does it by choice…. And I’m pretty sure VIC people have come to Eagles by choice before…

Who was the last best 22 vic player you traded in?
Yes not being a preferred destination in the highly active Vic player trade market is a disadvantage. A natural disadvantage that has existed for decades however there are ipportunities that pip up now and again.
And money talks. Cap space and being a rich club is the only cards the Eagles have to play with. And that has not been the case for some time.
Hunt was best 25.
Sounds like Graham is coming across tgis trade period, currently best 25.
But no, WA clubs have zero chance of trading in big Vic talent.
Dont class Jaith in that category though.

In 24 years I think we traded for 4 best 22 players as a whole, which was Stenglein, Wellingham, Redden (SA) and Kelly
We have taken Hickey, Vardy, Ellis, Mitchell, Hunt, Flynn, Witherden of the top of my head who we’re not from W.A
It’s a bit harsh to judge also since we have never had salary cap room to trade for too many best 22 players. Stenglein and Wellingham were not on big deals money wise. Only big moves we made are Redden and Kelly cos that’s all we ever had money to do.

The only way the Hawks 1st would be agreed is if Sam knows we will be playing deep into the finals.
