[THE A5]

Thanks bud.

No worries Champion

 

[squashface]

Carn Clarke, hold you campaigner.

You owe us.

 

[Eastcoasteagle]

When you say late, do you mean late late cause we got 73 now

On SM-A155F using BigFooty.com mobile app

Going to have to be.

 

[1sttermfadeout]

Obviously a typo, but would explain why the deal isnt done

 

[rebel23]

do NOT cave on Barrass... He's way more important to our lineup than let's say a pick 14 and 28 or something...

Keep him if we don't get two 1sts... At least we can wheel and deal with that hand

Absolutely f..K the hoksuckers

 

[Coasters7]

Hawks have already pocketed an extra F2 from Carlton.

F1 hwk + f1 carl for barrass and f3

Hawks turn 14 + f1 into barrass + f2 Carlton + f3 wce

We should be asking for both Carlton picks and the Hawks F1.

That still only values TB at 14 and a F1. They shouldn’t get to win an extra pick out of being dickheads and trading 14.

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

Who's gonna blink first?
This is nauseating...

 

[Bender_]

Sorry for the intrusion jatz, with all sincerity, I'm seriously not trying to troll you guys but I agree completely with you.

In all honesty, you guys seriously need to be loading up with draft picks like Richmond are. I know you're not gunna like it, but I said the same thing last year that you should have sold pick 1 for as many first rounders as you could get to load up with developing superstars and smash out your rebuild.

There's gunna be some compromised drafts coming up with Tassie entering the comp in a couple of years and I'm not convinced Chads gunna be your difference maker long term as much as a group developing 1st rounders will be.

I know you're all gunna jump on me and tell me to pi55 off back to my own board, but I honestly reckon you're all better off taking your medicine and getting started on this rebuild as soon as possible rather than looking for that big name import that might be a bandaid fix but will probably be worth just a couple of extra bums on seats at Optus on a Sunday arvo.

And trust me, as a Fremantle supporter, I do speak from experience on that. Don't do what we've done for the past 30 years.

Good luck guys and gals.

You've had more last times than Johnny f*cken Farnham.

 

[kylealone]

Hawks future 1st and x2 future second rounders for Barrass? Hawks keep Carlton future 1st rounder. We go to next draft with x2 firsts and x3 seconds.

 

[Dark Sharks]

Pretty bad look for the Hawks here to be courting a guy all year, giving him a contract, and then thinking they could get him for a bag of chips in a trade.

If he's as valuable to your premiership chances as you think he is then pay up.

Oh no's.... Hawk's were committedTm

 

[RookiePick]

Barrass on day 1 of pre-season at MRP:

 

[DanWCE]

but TB is obviously happy to go there with the contract they've offered. the hawks owe us nothing and are simply trying to get the best deal possible for their club. which is exactly what they should be doing.

The Hawks owe us fair compensation at a minimum for access to our contracted player. They don't owe us nothing. And given they have courted TB, as opposed to us pushing him out, the offer should be overs.

Their priority should be to get the deal done, not try to win the deal. If they have someone poach one of their contracted players, that's when they can try to win the deal.

 

[JackOutback]

Who's gonna blink first?
This is nauseating...

Hasn't there been an embargo for hours? Deal could have been made hours ago and it gets announced at 4pm, no?

 

[Lyyynnnchy]

. They shouldn’t get to win an extra pick out of being dickheads and trading 14.

Why not? It’s a business. Stop crying poor because of the sh*t decisions our club makes

 

[Hamann188]

You've had more last times than Johnny f*cken Farnham.

Yup, we deserve that.

 

[Godfather32]

Hasn't there been an embargo for hours? Deal could have been made hours ago and it gets announced at 4pm, no?

What are we, Cuba?

 

[ZergMinion]

Hasn't there been an embargo for hours? Deal could have been made hours ago and it gets announced at 4pm, no?

Embargo lifted 4.5 hours ago.

 

[WestCoast05]

I’m not potting you guys, but Richmond have more and better mid aged depth than you guys, to see them through their rebuild.

They’re going to lose Lynch and Prestia, and will need to draft some tall forwards, who will take 5 years to develop, but they will have a higher floor than WC in two years and a higher ceiling after this draft.

WC will lose McGovern, Sheed and Yeo soon, and won’t have the same number of high end draftees in to the club as Richmond will.

I don't pot you like some of the others on here as I think you can generally bring good takes on some things...

That said, this is your worst take I have ever read - Richmond just literally won the spoon.

So without even mentioning the fact they are losing a tonne of talent this trade period - pls explain how those who won the spoon are effectively going to 'see them through their rebuild'. That mid-aged depth are now either fleeing in a freo-dockers-esque type fashion and those remaining didn't exactly put their best foot forward this season, so realistically how do you expect them to fare now that the talent has left.

It is epic they have all these draft picks and if I was a Richmond supporter I would be salivating this draft period - BUT because our cliff came so suddenly we are already ahead of them in our rebuild.
As painful as the last few years have been we should be thankful we only spent 1 season in the middle (2021) and that we just outright plummeted.
We have a lot of problems - but those Vic media types that simply just don't follow us and blindly state that "the cupboard is bare", that was the case 3 seasons ago, it's not the case now...

Jury is out on Richmond's approach... North Melbourne spring to mind.

 

[Lyyynnnchy]

Hasn't there been an embargo for hours? Deal could have been made hours ago and it gets announced at 4pm, no?

No. Deals can be annnounced from 2pm AEST

Did you not see the Bolton deal announced?…

 

[eaglespremiers]

This reminds me of the mediations I undertake in litigation matters. A lot of sitting and waiting for a party to blink.
Had a Barrister on the other side at a mediation earlier this year threatening to leave the mediation at about midday to go surfing for the rest of the day.

 

[MerryHell]

The Hawks owe us fair compensation at a minimum for access to our contracted player. They don't owe us nothing. And given they have courted TB, as opposed to us pushing him out, the offer should be overs.

Their priority should be to get the deal done, not try to win the deal. If they have someone poach one of their contracted players, that's when they can try to win the deal.

Any other club yes, but we have a reputation for caving and are desparate for draft picks after the baker deal, they know it.

 

[Barrybran]

We should be asking for both Carlton picks and the Hawks F1.

That still only values TB at 14 and a F1. They shouldn’t get to win an extra pick out of being dickheads and trading 14.

Agreed. Take the original value combined with the Hawks' request - Barrass + F3 for F1 + F2 + F2.

 

[Broken_Chairs]

Happy to let Barrass go at this point in his career/our rebuild for overs - nothing less. He's an absolute gun.

We hold unless we get 2x F1

 

[HoneyBadger35]

 

[Dark Sharks]

And then... When Hawk's finally come to the table with 2x F1's, ask for Spider Everett as well, then hang up.
