Confirmed Dan Houston - Joins Collingwood as part of 3-way trade with Port and GC

[Jeremias]

For anyone who missed the prior warning:

Take the Carlton v Collingwood shit fight elsewhere.

Infractions will be handed out.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

If it were that straightforward then it wouldn’t need to be part of the Houston deal to begin with.

Yep, and lets be real Port are relatively okay paying a f1, some swaps here and there for Jack...and holding their 2 time AA to a contract and they can work with Dan over the next year or two. They will get more next year when teams can trade 2 years in advance.

Exactly how I hope it unfolds tbh.

4 way between North, Rich, GC and Port.

Port: Pick 6, Luko
Rich: Roos F1
GC: Rioli, Port F1
North: Houston, GC 13

And a few swaps of seconds back and forth.

Rich have a heap of firsts this year, a potential top 5 as well next year could be appealing.

GC get our F1 and Rioli.

Port get a good pick.

North get Houston and maintain pick 2.

Actually is smart, and lets say he nominates the Pies next year, then Port can say you give us 2026 r1 and 2027 r1. That's getting closer to the ballpark, not having Port pay Rory Atkins for goodness sakes!

Richmond will not trade pick 6 this year not a chance on earth of that happening. Would need way more than that to do it too.

Don’t see it as much as them trading it but instead getting Norths F1 which could be a top 5 as well.

Needs a few seconds etc to balance out but on face value, seems pretty even across the board.

Yea it'll come down to whether Port keep Houston or trade him to Pies.

North aren't a serious option unless they come to the party with Pick 2 and look for a split like WC.

Key word there “could” be a top 5 pick. Teams get burnt so easily with this.

Port surely have woken up and realised let’s close shop on this and trade next year when teams have twice as many assets with future picks

 

[Ugene41]

The difference is your pick 13 (which isn't 13 it is 17 plus with the bids) is not worth near a top 5 pick in next years draft and that's despite the perceived weaker draft, top 5 picks are still A quality.

GC would easily trade pick 6 for that North pick if it wasn't tied to the Rioli deal.

Great to see you arguing against yourself on value of Norths F1

 

[DocSholl]

It will 100% be a top five pick and most likely top three.

 

[Danog]

North lose: 2, 25, North F1
North gain: 6, 29, Houston

Port lose: 39, Port F1, Houston
Port gain: 14, North F1, Lukosius

GC lose: 29, Lukosius
GC gain: 39, Port F1

Richmond lose: 6, 14
Richmond gain: 2, 25

North Melbourne have a massive handicap in all this: they are North Melbourne.

 

[Makeshift Park]

Taking too long folks...

Not all of us want to be spending significant draft capital on a 28 year old back flanker.

Please take him and save us from ourselves.

Well there you go Port fans.

Blame Houston. Doesn't sound like it's just about getting back home.

 

[Port2Power]

Jon Ralph being fed shit by Connors Sports (Houston's management).

Ralph is the last person Im taking my news from!

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

Your F1 is for Lukosius. If this all falls apart and Houston stays, you're probably paying that for Lukosius.

The mega trade wasn't making Luko cheaper, heck for whatever reason Port needed to take on Atkins salary

Why bother, Ask for pick 3 from Blues.

3 for Houston + Port F1 sounds on the dot.

Then offer 3 for Suns 6+Luko

Tigers will be forced to then trade for Rioli for 13+23

Posted the same on our board earlier today. Would be happy with that as well.

Feel the blues are hitting the draft though unfortunately.

Yea agree, I think GC come out way ahead in that trade with 2x salary dumps. I think any rejig of the 3 way trade will need them stumping up more to please Port

Carlton don’t want/need Houston they need another mid to go with their current mix whether it be Finn or Draper whatever.

 

[manureid]

Leppitsch going through the Pies VFL side trying to find more scraps to throw at Port so dipshits on X can say 6 players for one player, why won't they take that? Port being greedy.

We now having access to the top 3 talent in this draft I would be livid if we used it as part of a deal for a 28 year old half back flanker.

Houston ain’t going to North, it’s been clear from the start, why are people persisting with this.

 

[HairyO]

Is Houston to the Pies for 6 years like Hopper and Taranto to the Tigers?

Terrible timing with a cliff rapidly approaching ?

Every chance Roos are above them in 2 or 3 years.
