Prediction FA/Trade Week Winners

[CrowToon]

Based on all the nominations and rumours

 

[exxcessivve]

Richmond will set themselves up very nicely to quickly rebuild by trading players who - while important to them now - are not rare talents IMO.

 

[Johnny Bananas]

Nobody. They'll all lose.

 

[Joao]

There's only 1 Dodo.

 

[Monocle]

Pretty obvious, I would have thought because every year we hear from two teams supporters, claiming that their Club won FA & Trade Week.


&

So no reason to think that they wont win FA & Trade Week again this year.


Meanwhile in the real world, all the other Clubs let these two Clubs and their supporters, spruik their October FA & Trade Week victories from the mountain tops, as all the other Clubs sleep safely, reassured by reality.

That stark reality is the brutal truth, which is:

• One of these Clubs has never won a Premiership .
• And the another hasn't won a final in over 20 years.

General consensus from all the other Clubs supporters, is that may this trend continue allowing the two Clubs to continue to claim they have won FA & Trade Week, providing their finals records stay unchanged other than the addition of years to their sorry plight.

Richmond will win this easily

Out : 4 short as*s that have all come close to their use by date
In : 8 fresh highly talented kids that will for the next Dynasty

 

[catman2006]

Richmond get rid of 4 solid players and will have an amasing haul of 1st rd picks.

 

[Rob R]

Richmond won't get as many good picks as.they think but will still be winners for getting a great start on the rebuild.

[The 747]

Essendon, same as they do every year.

 

[Vindicater]

Essendon, same as they do every year.

There is no Dodo anymore.

 

[Vindicater]

But more seriously.

Richmond (draft bounty) or Hawthorn (Battle/Barass fixing a need)

 

[jimmytigs]

hawks off to a great start,so i voted them,battle is a true stud,im not changing my tune on that out of bitterness & barrass has palm poisoning from all the intercept marks hes taken against the saints alone

but i hope dodo is the winner again,i like his ego to be pumped up,the results there after provide so much joy for everyone else in the afl community

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

You guys are fricken nuts

The team that won the Premiership will get pick 1 and another top 20 pick to add to its list.

Pull that head out of the sand guys and live in reality. Brisbane just adding more cream on the cake. Its depressing for all of us to watch... well it should be

You can't judge Richmond's trade week for 4 years because it will depend on how well they draft given how young a side they will have the next couple of years. A lot riding on this draft pool for them.

What he say **** me for...

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

So far...

1. Gold Coast - managed 2x salary dumps, traded in Noble along with 2x F1sts. Will lose mantle if they pay crazy overs for Rioli.
1. Collingwood - 2 quality ins Houston & Perryman FA to stay in premiership hunt.
2. Adelaide - 3 quality ins - Cumming, ANB & Peatling (hopefully).
3. Carlton - trading up to pick 3.

17. Port - losing Houston, F1 & taking 2x Suns salary dumps for no discount. Lukosius should be handy though.
18. West Coast - giving away pick 3 for Baker.

Richmond - likely to move to top spot if they get crazy overs for Rioli & Bolton

 

[bootz79]

Biggest loser is Richmond: signing balta was completely stupid - let him leave as a free agent next year and have pick 1 & 2

I'm sceptical of your method.

 

[MisterMarcus]

People are focusing on Houston in being a massive win for the Pies, but they've given up a bit for him.

Another F1, Pick 36, and two players. No picks before 50-odd this season when they should be looking to begin a transitional period.

 

[nahnah]

Seems to be no pies or port option in the poll so I’m really unsure who to vote for. Very childish behaviour from op

I don’t agree that this is a big price to pay for Houston (even if we finish mid table next year) and even then you’re forgetting that we only need points for McGuane as f/s next year so that first rounder would get absorbed by the new points system anyway. We’ll just have to get our hands on another second rounder somehow to see where the bid comes.

A Geelong fan should know that Collingwood doesn't need draft picks to rebuild.

Haha...Whoops!

Replaced with Peatling.

Too soon to say,

All in strategy for Collingwood - better come off in 2025 - this is coming;

What? Oh dear. 18 teams is hard to remember.

I dont have permissions to edit the poll.
