I dont see how we can do Baker before Barrass without trading #3 or F1?

They better not f*ck it up this year trying to be too clever again.

A future 2nd and future 3rd would value him around pick 15.

It's probably overpaying but it's a much more palatable overpay.

 

[Convocation]

Schofield on Shelter FootyCast posted today, just said Pick 14 was never on the table for TB, it was always future picks. Said Eagles may have wanted it, but it was always future picks.
If you knew this information Schofield, why talk about it after the fact when everyone else was talking about pick 14 being part of the discussion for Baker!
If true what Schofield is saying, what future picks do we want? I wonder if Pick 14 was never part of the original conversations for Baker as so repeatedly talked about by the media

 

[ziad]

Wander around Sydney and see how many sets of of Australian Rules goalposts you see, compared to Perth, Adelaide or Melbourne.

Participation rates even lower than your numbers would not be at all surprising. Sure, not zero, and probably higher than a decade ago, but that's because the AFL puts resources into the area - including the AFL teams, not despite it.

Plus, it's also worth noting the key role that elite schools play in sports development (as much as I hate it from an educational standpoint, but that's a whole other thing) - the elite schools in WA/SA/Vic are churning out AFL players - in NSW/Qld, they're building teams for the NRL.

NRL?? Soccer is the correct answer. Rugby Union (different sport) targets private schools 100% and hence their demise as a relevant sport. the AFL has also prioritised private schools with some success.

 

[Broken_Chairs]

Am I dreaming, or did the AFL once held off on announcing last minute trades until the last moments of the trade period so they can be televised?

I remember watching the final hours of the year TK didn't make it to us. List managers running around rooms and rushing up to the desk for AFL sign off lol. Ridiculous shit.

 

[Deepthroat]

Eagles

Baker, 6 & F2 (Rich) for 3 & 26

Suns

Rioli, 20 & 26 for 6, 13

Tigers

3 & 13 for Baker, Rioli, 20 & F2 (Rich)

Given how unrealistic Tigers are being in this trade period I dont think those picks in a weaker, more compromised draft will appeal. We have the leverage other than Baker having said all along he wants to ensure the Tigers get fair value but given Hawks screwed us to deliver 14 if we hold strong with what we actually have then he may see the Tigers aren't doing him any favours and force them to deal.

 

[Mop]

Since 2022 there has been an embargo on not being able to announce trades before 3pm AEDT on the final day to manufacture tension...


Thus allowing all the "drama" to be televised on prime-time when the trading ends 7:30pm AEDT on Wednesday.

Thanks to Continental Tyres.

Yeah, you're right, it is for Union, not League (though I'm pretty sure that they'll have a lot of League in there too)

But one thing it's not for is Australian Rules football. That's a minor sport (in the same way that WA elite schools have a rugby [union] team, but it's a side hustle at best - and given the space required, probably an even more side hustle)

Why would Hawks screw the trade like that?

God bless the AFL. Such a professional organisation.

It allows us to show Baker that we offered Richmond "fair value" given the picks we had available. Current second and future 3rd also an option.

As long as we get this done before the Barrass trade goes through I'm optimistic we won't end up involving a first rounder in the trade.

to be fair that is only for any trades done on the final day

Genuine chance we see nothing substantial happen between now and Wednesday afternoon.

 

[Mr Q]

Big club trade idea here (just for fun as a joke thing)

Fremantle: gives eagles 10 and 18
Eagles: give Richmond pick 3 and Melbourne a future second
Richmond: give Fremantle Shai Bolton and Melbourne pick 20
Melbourne give Fremantle Kozzy

Or instead of Richmond giving pick 20 to Melbourne we give them 11

What you lot think bout this, don’t have a go at me it was just an idea thing

I really don't like the chances no one has a go here....

I'd assume you forgot Baker, but even then I really don't like it. Freo get Bolton and Kozzie for 10 and 18, while the Eagles get shafted....

Lol Pickett is worth at least as much as Bolton. Both Richmond and Melbourne extremely ripped off here. Unders for us too given we have turned down 12 and 14 already.

So just the entire trade period?

Perfect. Don't change anything and make sure you call up trade radio with this.

So Melbourne get 20+wcef2 for Kozzi+melbf2?
Richmond gets 3+melbf2 for Bolton
Eagles get 10+18 for 3+wcef2?
Freo get Bolton and Kozzi for 10+18

A bit hard to decipher lol, thats my criticism

ill let other criticise the balancing of it

So Richmond would not give you Bolton for 10 and 18, so you thought it would be fun to involve West Coast so that you could offer the same that was rejected by Richmond to get both Bolton and Pickett instead of just Bolton.

You, minutes before posting is what I think.

Owies should bring a lot of Hurt factor


















Ok will let my self out now

First headline in the West after he's brought in... OWIES THAT?
