Leppa and his assistants discussing our strategy during a break - the week has taken its toll on everyone

We need to make a Call on this Trade by end of the Day

 

[Apex36]

Ehhh yes and no. I'm at the stage where missing out on Houston, when he was in our reach, would be a disaster.

Unless we got Petracca

It would be a big blow no doubt, because he’d genuinely transform our ball movement from defensive 50.

Media saying Carlton have an "extra" first round pick to get in the race for Houston but really they've just swapped one for the other. So I'm not 100% sure how this puts them in a better position for Houston?

 

[Mollythedolly]

Many childhood summers spent at Port Fairy. The crays were so plentiful - bought straight from the fishing boats when they pulled into the wharf - that we couldn't eat it all for dinner and had leftovers in sandwiches for lunch the next day (white bread of course).

Leftover crayfish is great on Pizza.

Mods can we move this bullshit food discussion to the derailed thread while there's actual relevant trade discussion happening?

13 to WCE for Barrass?

This

Blues are doing that deal regardless of Houston

Don’t they have 12 and 14 now? So hypothetically yes they are in a better position but it’s down to if they wanna stick to their take to the draft strategy

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

Think its the opposite
They'll take 14 to the draft and offer port 12 plus something else

But if we can offer 13, another pick and Richards, why would they take 12 and another pick instead?

It still feels like the media cheerleading Carlton

What if Carlton was trying to get Barass all along instead?

 

[Mollythedolly]

Just saying prawns now leads me to wanting prawns for lunch.

God damn this thread!

Got some leftover garlic prawns I whipped up last night in the fridge.

 

[jimmy35]

I don't care, I call them delicious

Snorkel around the rock wall at Merimbula wharf in season and pick them out of the weed.

 

[tmpies01]

Who says Carlton will use it on Houston?

I’m confident he’s ours still, either way.

Port wanted a first this year

 

[magpies2013]

Hate to say it but that’s well played by the filth. There future 1st next year with all the academy players could be in the 20s for a pick 14 this year. They now having something to offer Port which we don’t currently have. To get Houston and still have a 1st pick is unfortunately very well played by them.

Still a Port Player

Agreed completely. If anything it makes me confident that we're the front runner for the Suns' 13. Otherwise why would Blues have needed to find another seller?

 

[Apex36]

Blues are doing that deal regardless of Houston

I agree, but there’s also little doubt that they’ll now present an offer to Port using either 12 or 14 as the centrepiece.

[BEEG]

Haggling over pick 23 that Hine would **** up anyway.

 

[Jen2310]

because this was their point of wanting to trade their F1 and F2 for suns pick 13

If it lives in a pineapple under the sea, it's sponge bob square pants

... or Michael Voss

 

[celestial]

They won't trade both, they can trade just one of the picks.

Hawks screwing us on and off the field

 

[sr36]

Yep. Really well played
