Latest news and rumours:

• Tom Barrass officially requests trade to Hawthorn
  • Duffield: Eagles want two first round picks - "It may have to be in this year’s draft rather than a future pick."
  • Morris: Josh Battle is set to join Barrass at Hawthorn in 2025 - Ralph: Unclear if Hawks will pay enough for Band 1

• Kysaiah Pickett interested in a trade
  • "Club and management are confident they can work through his concerns"
  • Daniels: Pickett’s preference is Fremantle. Fremantle are keen, but Bolton the priority. Getting both “not impossible”. West Coast “an option if things get complicated.”

• Jai Culley, Coen Livingstone, Loch Rawlinson in line for one-year deals (The West)
  
  
• Liam Baker and Shai Bolton

[Get_The_Gaff]

We will end up with pick 4.

After ashcroft bid ?

 

[Hoskin300]

After ashcroft bid ?

Yeah :/. Frustrating that two Ashcroft bids have pushed us out of the high quality mids

 

[MrWoollie]

Pick 8 for Daniel rioli?

Surely that includes Richmond paying a chunk of his salary

I couldn't see anyone doing that. Even with a salary cover.
28 early next year. Don't know his contract but is of a years played to be a FA.

He's not someone that fits any window we are going to be in for the next 5 years. Except maybe the one that AFL defenestrates us out of.

Gold Coast / hardwick apparently want him . Richmond board want pick 8 because he is contracted and they are rebuilding.

Its gold coast no idea if they would do that .

Gold Coast traded a future PP tied to pick 11 to Geelong for second round pick, and threw in a fourth rounder to Geelong for good measure.

Anything is possible for their list management team, though rumours are that Dimma has told the recruiting team to start taking trading seriously.

I accept that GC have made some really weird trades with picks and players over the past few years, but I still couldn't see this one.

But if Hardwick loves him and wants him...

 

[3agles87]

Make that 5 for Hutchinson.

Can see why so many of us wanted him in the poll

 

[Cuzz09]

I am once again begging West Coast to pay overs for this bloke on a four year FA deal, to bridge the gap in our list and give our forwardline some juice.

He's a bit bigger anus than our old anus

[dkalphy]

So the bigger issue of this Reid suspension is that does this mean he's not eligibility for the $1M+ trigger in his third year? One of the criteria was winning the rising star

They traded Allen ryan and Petrecelle to us for a 3 pick upgrade a year later

Trade pick 2 Andrew Brayshaw for weller

They traded bowes and pick 6 for a 3rd rounder .

Who the **** knows what they will do

GC are a joke, if Warner was there they would accept a second rounder for him. Unfortunate that the teams we deal with happen to be the stubborn clubs

Looks that way . Our hands are tied now
I think we appeal and if he doesn't get off we blame the afl and get in his ear that that VIC controlled afl is out to get him

 

[Get_The_Gaff]

I feel that Richmond will pay part of rioli salary until his contract is finished in 2027 .

They will be lauded for being the trail blazers in salary cap trading

Still other ways he can get it I believe.

It comes after it was revealed on Midweek Tackle that Reid’s earnings can go up significantly in his third season should he or any other first or second-year player hit one of several marketing bonuses on their contract below.
-Finish top 10 in the Brownlow Medal
-Finish top five in the club best and fairest
-Finish top five in the AFL Rising Star
-Make the All-Australian squad
-Receive a Rising Star nomination (20+ senior matches, Picks 1-5 only)

Eagles could easily fudge the BnF votes if they wish

 

[Deplorable trumpster]

If thats what they think they are going to get for Rioli then imagine what they are expecting and asking for for Baker.

Hasn't he already got the last one?

 

[Elite Pete]

Hasn't he already got the last one?

Yeah I assume that’s suppose to be win Rising star but who knows. I’m sure we hear all about it this week

 

[twadds]

He can tie Ryan Marics shoelaces in our team and thats about it

Strong do.not.want

Good first up WAFL game. Probably BOG.

 

[Elite Pete]

If thats what they think they are going to get for Rioli then imagine what they are expecting and asking for for Baker.

Difference is Rioli is contracted and the Tigers will pay some of it.

I think this what we should do with Barrass if he agrees with Sydney.

Sheldrick and they’re first this year and next for Tom Barrass and our future 3rd.

Use the Swans first for Baker and maybe Swans future first for Buss with a future 2nd coming back

Baker/Sheldrick/Buss/WB F2 for Barrass?

HEdwards and Buss to fill the Barrass role with Gov in bed seeing it for a year or 2.

 

[Rowan18]

Hasn't he already got the last one?

Just needs to play 9 more matches. Should get it easily.

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

Good first up WAFL game. Probably BOG.

Oh I never doubted his ability mate. Easily 3rd best talent on the board and said that before we picked him up. Just dont see how he gets a game

At this point happy to just chuck him on a wing almost to see what happens. Otherwise Im not sure how he gets a game, especially once Oscar Allen is back. We legit will probably have 4 tall forwards in our WAFL side too as well as our AFL side once everyone is back....

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

Pick 8 for Daniel rioli?

Yep. I cant see Tigers not doing what Gold Coast want to get pick 8 and that would be a good 500k of salary paid for by Richmond for example. I think Gold Coast are smart enough to know they need to save some cap space before the onslaught

 

[noobermensch]

Urquhart was WA's best on the day, his size and competitiveness was influential at stoppage and he was typically damaging with his penetrating right boot. He played 100% midfield in this game which is different to his typical role at Colts level where he rests in the forward line, and he did fade in the second half which coincided with the Allies getting on top of the territory battle.

 

[Get_The_Gaff]

If thats what they think they are going to get for Rioli then imagine what they are expecting and asking for for Baker.

Nice to be a big vic team and the media pumping up the value of your exiting players .

Or deflating the incoming players value .

What did toranto and hopper cost ?

 

[bzparkes]

What did toranto and hopper cost ?

Too much, actually.
