[bombard]

With respect to the Sunraysia Football and Netball League, he didn’t have the heart or drive to play football. Thought he’d made it the day he was drafted, didn’t do the work, didn’t have the ticker.

To be fair, that's worth about 19 games a season in our 2023 and 2024 teams.

 

[THE A5]

**** this club

So I read this in a hurry. But yeah good by us letting Rotham go

 

[squashface]

un**** the club?

 

[THE A5]

Why is f o l d censored?

 

[Dark Sharks]

I feel like whatever pick we get for Darling will be on traded to get Dev…

Works for me.

Shifting Darling and his salary off the books whilst adding a defensive mid with upside, in the prime footballing age we lack is a big win.

Improves depth, improves flexibility with salary cap, allows for more opportunity given to J.Williams and Reid.

Also good for North. Only one I don't think would be keen is Brisbane.

 

[FKASC]

Quite often lately.

Venables - Dead (but was the real winner in the end.... IF you know what I mean)
Brander - Gone
Chesser - Ugh
Hewett - love him, but I've got no faith.


Ginbey projects as a solid selection at least. Thank god for that. Pick split would've looked atrocious if he wasn't.

lol expert level bedwetting here

 

[Ambrose Burnside]

How's he wrong?

 

[Dark Sharks]

How's he wrong?

He's not. It's facts. SpaceKent is just throwing shade after I laughed at his Harley melt.

It's what makes this board special. Tit for tat. Memes. Swinging dicks.

 

[wce4premiership]

It's very simple.

We trade Pick 2 + Darling to North Melbourne

In return we receive from North pick 3 + Darling immediately traded back to WCE + Hawks Pick 30

It's a bit of the "tails I win, heads you lose" type of wizardry that I'd love to see the club try more of.

I'd only accept it if North agreed to pay Darling's salary though.

 

[Shueygod]

It's what makes this board special. Tit for tat. Memes. Swinging dicks.

Writing off Chesser and Hewett as not working out after 3 and 2 (injury impacted) years respectively is a horrid take.

Same goes for the people complaining that we only came out of the 17 draft with Allen and Ryan and didn’t hit on literally all of our picks.

 

[Smotie2]

Something to make some supporters REALLY happy....

"While foxfooty.com.au understands Josh Rotham looks highly unlikely to receive an extension after 72 games across six seasons at the club."

Sweet

 

[Hook461123]

PommyinOz just released a phantom. He's not an ITK journo but does a lot of draft stuff.

He had us involved in a mega trade.

End result;
Hawks: Barrass, 60
Freo: Bolton, 24, 40
Tigers: 3,11,14
GCS: Rioli, 30,58
WC: Baker, 6,18,28,68

So basically
Out Barass, 3, 24, 60
In: Baker, 6, 18, 28, 68

Then had us drafting a sliding FOS at 8 (after Ashcroft and Lombardo bids), and Whitlock at 20.

 

[Yeahnahmate]

Will Elijah Hewett ever actually play football?

Also stop saying Dev - like who cares?

And Rotham is so not worth talking about whether on our list or not. He succcckkkkkkkks

Out Barass, 3, 24, 60

ew

If we assume 6+18 for 3, then its Barrass+24+60 for Baker+28+68. Huge unders for us
Basically has Baker as worth more than Barrass

Very ew

Let's say for the sake of argument that Baker is worth roughly 24 and Barrass is worth roughly 18 and 28.

That means we traded 3 and 60 for 6 and 68. Don't think I'll bother watching that mock.

F**k that. Although FOS at 8 would be a steal.

Would rather keep 3 and trade Barrass to Hawks for pick13 and F1st.

If Suns want 3 I'm sure we can do better directly for 6 and 12 etc

 

[Elite Pete]

Matt Kennedy told he’s free to look for another club. Would he move West after a new addition ti the family. Free to look means he would come cheaper. Carroll staying?

 

[Goomba1973]

I do not recall seeing anything stranger occur

Freo getting pick 2 for Lachie Weller

 

[mattyc75]

I hope we've at least been in contact with his management.

Id have him up there with Peatling on guys id want to recruit.
Big bodied mid who can play a defensive role and do a multitude of different roles if required, ideal to have in a young side who is still finding where players fit

Kennedy + Peatling would be amazing

Just read he is from the same country town and played junior footy with Perryman.

Perryman (Free) + Peatling + Kennedy (cheap trade)

I'd rather and exchange of fourth rounders so we keep an additional pick.

That trade effectively slides 3, 13 AND 23 to fit Baker in for free. I get the logic but surely we can do better than that. I would hope that any potential split for pick 3 generates an extra first rounder rather than just freeing up space for a player. I still hope we can get Baker for our F2 so we're able to use our draft picks this year.

 

[eaglevision]

Norf have pick 40, 58 and 64 in this year’s draft. If we can’t extract one of those three picks for Darling then we’ll need a lot of lube when the Barrass trade goes through.
