This thread has moved 47 pages since 6pm Friday although absolutely nothing has happened. Fair to say that the posters have been lot busier with the trades over the weekend than the recruiters themselves.

 

[Yeahnahmate]

Should be a fun last 3 days. Looking forward to some serious melts in the next few days.

It’s gonna be like setting up with one of these bad boys on a 40+ day

I am all about the quality melts. It’s the core of trade week.

 

[Yeahnahmate]

They dont have to be insurance. They are kids who we rated highly enough who are yet to get proper exposure to the midfield.
We have already added Graham and are soon to add Baker.
Hewetts latest foot injury was in the opposite foot wasnt it?(or at least an unrelated injury)
Im not saying we never need to draft a mid again, but this year in particular, we dont have to.

Oh yeah we are set for mids - in what world? Wildly off

 

[Yeahnahmate]

Strong disagree mate. Follows a pretty consistent logic

You repeating it makes it consistent, but it’s far from logical

 

[Byron_Clanger]

No tweets from tonight's episode of Footy 'Classified' Furnace about the Eagles pick being up for grabs. Did any brave soul watch? Was it brought up at all? Promising signs if it wasn't.

Used to love those after swimming lessons. And half the time they'd make your gums bleed

 

[Farang83150]

Get Yeo coming off the back more often

Yeah would love more of that as long as there's someone in the guts to help reid.

 

[Yeahnahmate]

I'm not really after what people value him at, because that's really subjective. More interested in what other players in his circumstances were worth in previous trades.

Neal-Bullen, 2 and a bit years older for an early second would make it reasonable for Baker to be worth a late first, but it's a single data point.

You were disputing talent though - I’d take ANB over Baker if they were the same age. Agree the value gap is narrowed due to Neal-Bullen getting on a bit

Most refreshing thangs on planet earth

Just because you disagree doesnt mean its not following some sort of logic

 

[stallon]

Oh yeah we are set for mids - in what world? Wildly off

I didnt say that at all, I said we can make do for 1 more year while we fix other parts of the ground. Back to mids in 2025

 

[Yeahnahmate]

Agree to disagree - generally speaking, and on this point specifically

 

[Yeahnahmate]

And that’s idiotic, so I’ll leave it there

They said something like "potentially" up for grabs but hard no to Carlton.

FWIW not really many other updates.

 

[Priddis Is Done]

Mate no offence but you know f*ck all about what Pyke & the board think so stop acting like you do. Your a guy on a online forum who’s entitled to your opinion but stop talking like it’s a fact. Give it a break (You’re also not the only one)

 

[Altum Volantes]

Final predictions as get rolling:

Darling for a disappointingly late pick that will disappear into the tail end of a pick swap/thrown into a more complex deal. - Got the pick right, hopefully we can use it on Champion.

Baker and a pick in the 30s for 14. - Won’t be 14 but I suspect something like this will happen for the F1 received for Barrass. Stil confident it’ll be slight overs, despite the uncontracted status, due to Clarke’s Richmond history.

Jack Graham takes the 4 years on the table. Tick (but not exactly hard).

Barrass for 14 and F2 - 14 gone but I think it’s F1 (Hawthorn) and F2 (Carlton) now.

Clurey for something late. - Seems unlikely.

No Garcia (stays at Dogs) or Robertson (goes to some pointless Vic club). - Tick on Garcia and standing by this for Robertson - I’ll say St Kilda.

We retain 3 (4) for now… - Staying with this but no guarantee it makes it to draft night.

Checking in on my initial predictions.

Will add one more - no other players coming our way (other than Baker) - but we will have a few train-ons. Parfitt won’t be one of them, he’ll stay in Victoria.

 

[Goomba1973]

He's nominated us because we offered him more money and years.

No way should we pay overs for him, but that doesn't mean we should **** him around to get him for free. A second rounder + something else should get it done

Weak argument..that's being nice, we offered a deal and money, we did not once promise a 1st round pick... Richmond are fu*king him, they were offered market value and said no.

 

[maverick001]

For the love of god can we deal for either Barrass or Baker tomorrow just to reduce the stress levels.
don't think we can take 2-3 more days of circlework.

 

[Ruben Grubarb]

We have competent inside mids, Reid, Baker, graham, Hall, Hutch, and Hewett is enough to work with for 1 more year alongside Yeo and Kelly.
We have grunt and enough bodies to get by.

We have basically 0 strong outside ball users, Maric has a great kick but lacks run, Ginbey can run but isnt a great kick, etc. Not a lot to work with. We also have very little elite in the pipeline for the backline.

Not going into it all again as ive been through it here before. More than 1 way to go about it is all im going to say

"Competent" doesn't cut it. We're trying to build for a flag, not mid table. You take the elite mids while you have the picks to get them.

We need elite talent in the backline too mate. The backline isnt just a place for failed mids and failed KPFs anymore

 

[Ruben Grubarb]

Sure, and you get them when you have the right draft picks. When you have a top 5 pick, in a draft full of elite mids, you take an elite mid.

In the nicest possible way, you have no idea. No club is doing what you suggest.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Reckon Hough and Ginbey is a good start in the elite backmen stakes.

Reubs looks like a natural general back there to me.
