Great take.
I’m hoping we get 2xF1 for TB and trade one back in (Sydney?) for another throw at the stumps this year.

At worst, we’re replacing our bottom 3 players with quality senior players. Even if they aren’t in our next premiership team, they’re going to play a role to develop the kids coming through.

We fkd this entire trade period, but it will be okay… I hope.

What does a rough 'best 23' look like on paper with these inclusions?

I'd assume it looks stronger than this season, however I can understand the frustration from supporters with not taking an elite level talent in the top 3.

 

[Big_Birdy]

Still going through a stage of grief - disbelief

I believe the stage is denial.

 

[bzparkes]

I hate you guys even more now for giving Carlton out of all clubs a top3 pick.....go to hell eagles

 

[Hook461123]

What a start to Clarkes tenure. Had 12 months to plan an attack on this draft/trade period and he produces this.
I'm in shock tbh.

Dropped the ball on the Barrass trade.
Overpaid for Baker
Terrible pick swap
Gave away our late picks for the Champion bid

Whats next Dev for a F2?
Trade Barrass for a pick on traded to Swans for pick 19?
Trade our F1 for GC pick 13?

Absolute shambles

 

[Cuzz09]

It would be nice if Brockman can produce something... anything

Hopefully Hutch, Long and Dewar can continue to develop

Currently listening to Lou Reed's Metal Machine Music to calm the violent cacophony of anger, contempt and resentment rattling around my brain.

 

[Tugga27]

Couldn't care less if they are interested. They are badly interested in Bolton and Richmond want pick 10&11 for him. They might even want more then that.

You don't get gun players for free. Freo will have no choice but to give up there top draft picks. And we would of said to Richmond Allen is ours at pick 12 so they won't touch him.

Be serious.
Freo aren't giving 3 picks for Bolton.

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

Okay looking forward to how our side may look in 2025, we obviously have a heap of small/mid forwards.

Assuming we play Oscar, Waterman and JWilliams as a backup ruck/3rd forrward.

That leaves, Ryan, Brockman, Long, Cripps, Owies, Dewar, Hutchison, Hewett, Baker, Rawlinson all competing for those last spots in the forward line + other roles.

Who do we think can move into other roled from that crop?

Personally, I think Hutch showed he could be an option as an inside, ball winning mid. Baker and Hewett will also spend time, mid/forward.

Dewar is the other one, that I think should be trained as a wing/half back. His skill level is elite and could potentially fill the role, that Lewis Jetta left in 2020.

Hutchinson & Long to midfield, Maric to wing, Brockman & Ryan to spend significant time in the midfield.

 

[random260]

It like our draft team looked at our list and felt we had a gap in 26+ year olds which we did. And decided to check some checkboxes like KPI

But then decided to sell the farm to get these 26+ year old. But they miss this minor astrix where it says those 26+ year olds need to be good and they age fast

 

[Jupes]

what dumb campaigner made a commitment to baker to such an extent that we had to torpedo our entire ****ing draft hand over it??
listening to pyke i am ****ing livid
go and get ****ed

 

[amazingjoshy]

So the smooth brains at wce what happens to us in four years when Liam Baker turns 30 and Owie 31?

Clarke and McQualter will be too busy polishing their 4 straight premiership cups to care

 

[squashface]

Wowee I’m so angry.

What a pathetic trade and club

 

[Wedgetailed Westerner]

We are all in on the Warner train for next year it seems. Plus with the new matching rules, we are trying to set ourselves up next year if Banfield and Co have blinder top age years.

Remember we will be able.to utilise 2 years of picks in the Warner trade. In my opinion. He won't cost as much next year compared to this year.

 

[garlic munchers]

Baker and Graham (and maybe Dev) will help Harley actually get through full games better.

Could free him up to be more attacking.

Oh goody, rather than sell the promise of building with a gun midfielder and future glory, let's sell the farm this year to help him get through games now (gee not sure what Yeo, Kelly and Graham were supposed to be doing) without a clear path to winning premierships.......because you know, Reid ain't worried about the ultimate glory if he can get September off.

WC supporters are petty rusted on, but we have just pushed our rebuild back with Tassie looming, WTF?

 

[TY24]

Friendly reminder that Carlton wanting it and West Coast agreeing to it are very different things

I want to win lotto, which is probably just as likely to happen as us accepting 12+14 for 3.

Update: I did not win lotto

 

[random260]

We are going to be bottomed tabled side for a decade not a mid tabled side.

We are going to be bottom 4 for the next decade.

We are topping up our shit list with 27 year olds who retire before we improve significantly creating a cycle

 

[Jupes]

it's okay guys baker is good on the training track and owies wont walk into the 22 but he'll put pressure on for spots

 

[Cuzz09]

As a WA side we need to aim for 22-24 year olds in trades because these guys burn out so fast.

Not alot play well past 30

That all doesn’t matter, time to stop living in the past, we are nowhere near the same powerful club we used to be so it’s all irrelevant, let’s focus on the present and future where we are completely ****ed on and off the field..

That may be right and I agree with you, doesn't mean Carlton fans are in a position to laugh at us

 

[Quinz]

Think of the goodwill though guys. After losing our 25th trade in a row we've got so much we're not even sure where to store it.

Who says he wont change his mind or just pick freo

 

[uncleoatmeal]

That trade is ****ed. This club is going nowhere fast

Pyke's interview for those who missed it.

 

[ROO DOGG]

Pyke was right when he said we weren't going to sell the farm. We went and bought a shotgun, killed all the animals, then the bank came and took our farm away. Now we are going to spend the next couple of days deciding what to do with our last bullet.

 

[Cuzz09]

Pyke's interview for those who missed it.

cbf listening to it... does he at least acknowledge the fans concerns
