[SSSSSS]

Thank you for making trade week fun again.

 

[Obeanie1]

In: Baker Grahame Owies

Out: Pick 3 Barrass

How on earth did we get worse then we were yesterday

We haven't traded Barrass yet.

What a loser of a post.

 

[Forward Press]

Baker and Owies are decent additions. Necessary mature bodies to help the young ones develop. No one disputes that.

But the price paid? Ugh. Baker was uncontracted and Owies was a delisting candidate.

Better hope that the person we were looking at for pick 3 slides to pick 12. We will find out in a few years whether this paid off.

Anyway this will be my only melt, because it would just ruin the rest of my day if I continue.

 

[Cuzz09]

Owies kicked 60 the last 2 years at a pretty good Carlton fwd line.

You can sort of compare... The feet of Curnow and .McKay now at the feet of Snake and Oscar he could be dangerous

[Bender_]

Absolutely f*cken dire.

 

[Rowan18]

Well, I owe all the bed wetters a massive apology. You were right all along. Our club has absolutely ballsed up this trade period.

Undersold pick 3 and then compounded it by overpaying for Baker.

There's going to be blood in the streets next year if we go 0-5 with McQualter trying to implement Richmond's outdated gameplan and Graham, Baker and Owies spudding it up. Pick 12 struggling to develop in the WAFL.

 

[ToastieBoy18]

Hawthorn already had decent young mids also.

We have Reid and nobody else.

Yep agree. But I assume this is the mindset of the list management team.

The club must be confident of getting Noah Long and Elijah Hewett back to full fitness this season and essentially bringing them in as new recruits for 2025.

 

[Lyyynnnchy]

Wonderful

 

[KBLT]

We'd better be saying 'Coleman Medallist Matt Owies', 'Brownlow Medallist Liam Baker

[RookiePick]

On the plus side I guess I get to see if my Duggan is Baker from Wish comment holds water from the front row.

 

[In The Rod We Trust]

This is some Fremantle type trading

Yeah that's the only reason I can fathom that they did this....they still believe the player they want will still be there at 12

 

[Draft Bored]

Feel real sorry for you guys right now.

Richmond and the VIC media over inflating the value of their players has ruined both WC and GC's drafts. I think GC could have actually got above the Lombard pick and added another top 3 player to their list.

If you went back to day one, how much better does this trade look:

And we were all bashing the forever doom and gloomer ep2018

Yep

I'd like to apologise

Bo Allan or who they rate as the best home grown but no guarantee?

Umm no that ship has sailed

this is west coast type trading ...which is pretty poor

Happiest he has been in years.

 

[mat11]

What makes things worse, freo probably never offered baker 11 they just scared us over the weekend about it. Now they will come in and swoop malakai before our pick in the 70s

[Crow till I die]

Get Travaglia at 12 and it might salvage the trade somewhat as he could end up being right up there with the best in this draft - a Will Day type player. Just can't work out why the need to trade 14 straight up for Baker. Surely a down trade with a club like Sydney for their 19 & 22 with one of them going to Richmond for Baker would have been there to explore?

 

[Matera92]

What an embarrassment.

Except he isn't a crumbing small forward.

More of a high work rate leading small.

He won't be there at 12 > 14.

 

[Laverdeee]

Dons supporter who initially came here for a lol. However going to give an unbiased reaction

• Baker and Owies make you instantly more competitive next year
• You can throw a blanket over the top 20 in this draft, you will still get a very good kid at pick 12
• With future picks from Barrass trade, you can then trade back into this draft

 

[Deepthroat]

A 5 f*cking year contract for Baker too.

I swear the club has no f*cking idea.

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

You're a dog. Absolute grub. Fancy wanting to boo one of your players. Go join the Dockers you scumbag.

Changed my mind mate. Forgive me for being so angry I cant think straight
