[stallon]

Well if we are getting Graham and Baker, I still think Dev is a decent trade in option.
Those 3 will shore up our midfield and half-forward with mature bodies for the next few years

 

[SumaGodCoach]

Our new logo.

 

[WheelAndDeal]

Concrete boots Graham, new WCE whipping boy! Enjoy fellas

Baker is a good pick up but I have to be honest pick 13 is definitely way overs

 

[TerryFilk]

I remember saying months ago how scared I was of Matt Clarke due to his Richmond connections

In his first off season we’ll hire his Richmond assistant

Give Graham 4 years

And trade a top end pick for a 27 year old utility

What was the point of nudging Barrass out the door to generate picks only to spunk them on Baker?

Set for another shocking off season, if 13 is tabled for Baker it’ll set us back big time.

 

[kerrazy]

Surely, surely we aren't going to cough up 13 for him? 27 year old, is uncontracted, nominated our club, role player,
and it's literally what we are getting for Barrass. There simply has to be more to it!

Didn't the club say we need to get as many top 20 picks as possible?

Can Phil or BOND give us so info?

 

[garlic munchers]

I hope we abandon our Jack Graham pursuit and just trade a token pick for Deven Robertson to come be our defensive mid.

Perhaps he can become the youngish tagger we need (not for the Bont types, but more the Cripps/Serong/Brayshaws)?

Bit like Hutch couldn't quite make the step up as a mid from WAFL to AFL, but was a very handy as a role player.

 

[KERRPOW]

**** sake. Richmond nuffies are frothing right now.

They think they're getting pick 13.

They're lucky 23 is even on the table.

 

[kerrazy]

They think they're getting pick 13.

They're lucky 23 is even on the table.

I'm at the point now that I'm praying it's 23. And even then I think that's overs.

The media has driven nothing but the idea of 13!

 

[pantskyle]

Pick 13 would be absolutely on point for the Eagles, should be second rounder or F2.
Surely we'll add a little onto Graham to assist the compo.

 

[DRK_13]

Why would Twomey mention Pick 13 in the same tweet as the Baker nomination? Vic-bias Speculation, or something we dont know

 

[stallon]

Remember guys the club has given up literally nothing up to this point, why would our trade intentions for Baker be known by every journo in the comp while literally nothing else is known?

 

[stallon]

Feels like theyve all heard Twomey say he "expects" 13 to be on the table and theyve run with it

 

[Jez1974]

Concrete boots Graham, new WCE whipping boy! Enjoy fellas

Stay at the Tigers or go to freo
Now we have mcqualter. Richmond duds heading our way!

 

[bzparkes]

Why would Twomey mention Pick 13 in the same tweet as the Baker nomination? Vic-bias Speculation, or something we dont know

Club is 'Expected', which mirrors his comments on Gettable last week of "I expect".

He doesn't know what the offer is.

 

[DRK_13]

Baker can nominate all he wants, but if Richmond ask for pick 13 for an uncontracted role player, we can get him to walk to the PSD. Two can play at that game.

Oh FFs grow up. Geezus the negativity in here is chronic PTSD. They give our midfield much more variety and instantly will free up Yeo and Kelly. They'll provide the kids with some leadership and direction and when they're cooked in 4yrs those kids will be cheery ripe.

[EagleEgo]

Now with McQualter in, Bolton, Graham, Baker, and Soldo combination will certainly improve our list immediately.

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

He is taking a wild guess. Most people do get that the likely deal is a F2nd deal with Jack Graham compo bumped up. I suspect AFL mouth pieces dont want to admit the systems being rorted

Looks at ladders for last 3 years

Yeah the negativity is odd to me too. Not sure why people are not cartwheeling about our every decision

 

[Byron_Clanger]

Can we please bring Nissy back?...Good lord, seeing this makes me sick to my stomach.

Hope its a wild guess.

Perth Journos also "reporting" (speculating) Pick 13 as the starting point. Surely that starting point is a long way from the "finishing point"

 

[Ambrose Burnside]

Remember guys the club has given up literally nothing up to this point, why would our trade intentions for Baker be known by every journo in the comp while literally nothing else is known?

Because they're familiar with how we operate during trade week?

New guy in charge now of course but still.

Graham will also push a kid out of the midfield because he’s incapable of playing anywhere else at a decent level, he’s incredibly slow and has zero hurt factor. Had like 4 hamstring injuries this year as well.

Baker is a good player, not saying he won’t help but you don’t give up top end picks at the beginning of a rebuild for a 27 year old utility who’s un contracted, that’s insane.

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

Providing leadership and direction is just a fancy way to say they have no talent to provide in a way

I want someone to provide leadership, direction and hard running on a wing
