News Dan Houston traded to Collingwood

[Bevoman]

Would be great wouldn't it.
Although as long as it's happening behind closed doors I couldn't give a shit.

That is what Dan's manger has been shopping around for months where only the Dees had agreed to the price.
Whereas the Saints said no, and then went public

Apparently Draper is This years JHF according to one S Rowe.

Rowe's a clown.

JHF was a massive part in dragging South up to a Prelim Final.

With Draper they've barely avoided a wooden spoon.

 

[Duckimus Prime]

Our request for two firsts will be tested compared to what Richmond get for Dan Rioli. They compare closely:

Dan Houston - 27- 168 games- 2 x All-Australian

Translation: Dan Houston is a very good player.

Dan Rioli- 27 yo- 183 games- 3 Premierships

Dan Rioli was a bog average small forward that played in a good team that had Dustin Martin go full beast mode in finals.

Dan Rioli is a much better footballer now though.

Playthekids76 good news for you pal you might be able to go watch him at Westies this year and you can give us scouting reports why someone should pick him up in the MSD lol

Not surprised. I guess you mean main list?

Sorry Dan, with Cumming choosing Adelaide if we miss Perryman you have to stay for one more year

Did he mention that he doesn't want to be drafted by the Crows?

Furture Port player confirmed

 

[VineValerian]

F****** Davies saying he doesn't know where the 2 x firsts for Houston came from, and that the club will see what gets offered to us.

P*** weak backtracking again. FFS show some spine Port. Dig your heels in.

Basically saying we'll accept a first rounder and accepting defeat that there's no way two first rounders are coming in.
Close enough is good enough at Port.

What an awful negotiator.

Can we move him on now so he doesn't ruin the list on his way out?

I'd be keeping Dan if the best offer ends up being a single (probably mid-late) first round pick and some shuffling of later picks for optics.

Unless it's because North and pick 2 are actually in play, then sure, take that. But I doubt it. It'll be Carlton trying to use a pick then ends up being about 15. Pass.

Sid’s family have had a visit from Hawthorn among others - he’s definitely being enticed to Vic. Can’t see how we’d get him unless there’s a Dan Houston miracle.

Despite Stephen's nuffie tendencies, and 100% blind support of everything the Crows do. In the vision I saw, I could see the correlation.

For ****'s sake. We're so ****ing weak.

Next minute we trade him to Collingwood for Joe Richards and a future third. The AFL happily ticks off on this.

 

[port_adelaide_1870]

We need strong people running this club. For too long this club has been run by weak men.

 

[Sewer de Lance]

We were never getting two 1st Rounders for a 28 yo HBF despite his dual AA status.

This completely misrepresents what he said. He basically deadbatted/non-answered any discussion of valuing any players in trade/free agent discussions - Houston, Lukosius, Richards, Perryman, Cumming.

There is no evidence that he wouldn’t enter trade discussions with hefty demands for clubs interested in trading for Houston. Nor is there any value in a public declaration of “two firsts or **** off campaigners”. This is not the Draft and Trading board on BigFooty.

 

[Powerade 08]

Whatever we get ontop of Carltons first rounder will be used for Lukosius anyway

 

[port_adelaide_1870]

In reality Houston is worth more to us than pick 12, if we are not getting x2 first rounders we 100% should keep him.

Unless you want Hinkley sacked, than trade him coz we ain’t doing anything significant next year without Houston and then Ken will get the boot

Not if gcs decides it’s not.

North's pick 2 might be involved in the trade, but we wouldn't be getting it. North would be trading pick 2 to someone else that gives them multiple picks back for it, and then we'd get one of those picks.

And then we say no

 

[davesnothere]

North have a KPD they want and they need a mid teen pick to be sure of that. We find them a mid teen pick and take their pick 2.

Dan was Captain of the Camberwell Grammer school and every footy team he played for.
With the benefit of hind sight perhaps he should have been appointed Captain instead of Rozee.

 

[Alberton Proud]

No point trading Dan to anyone who is a premiership threat. Straight swap for Norfs Pick 2. Then we can downgrade Pick 2 if we want, for whatever else we need.

Syd Draper thanks
