Gumby to Freo

[Wizard]

I don't want Freo or Essendon fans contributing to discussion here if possible, prefer just neutrals.

Whats a fair trade here in the opinion of outsiders?

And secondly whats the chances a deal will be done?

 

[iGNITER]

2nd round pick?

 

[Wizard]

2nd round pick?

20-30 or 30-40??

 

[ize_]

20-30 IMO.

 

[DeeWong6996]

2nd rounder + fringe given Freo's ladder position

 

[micool]

would gumby plus our second be worth freo first round

 

[iGNITER]

20-30 or 30-40??

Probably 20-30

How about McPhee in there somewhere? Sure I read somewhere he is looking at a move back to Melbourne

Noooooooooooooooooooooooo.

Injury history says 3rd round south for me

It may come close.

Depends if Freo are desperate for a KPF (IMO, given Lyon is their coach, not overly) and whether they rate Gumbleton + a mid with questions over a Jaksch or Paparone.

Also, obviously, dependent on whether medical staff believe he has finally overcome any injury concerns.

Wouldn't be surprised, given Essendon's trade history, that they'll baulk at any realistic deal presented.

I'd be happy with Freos 2nd round pick... Or their first if we send Hooker or Pears with him...

 

[GO Freo]

Gumbleton + Pears for second round pick and a choice of Suban, Ibbotson, Pitt, Roberton

 

[Lyyynnnchy]

Lol, the no Freo or Essendon supporters didnt last long

 

[The 747]

3rd round pick, if that. All hype and very little output.

 

[King Corey]

Gotta love how the biased supporters come in anyway.

Pick in the 40-55 range outright.

If swapping picks maybe something that shifts an Essendon pick circa 50 down into the 30s.

Freo can afford to take it or leave it, Essendon might want to offload him to reduce their risk profile. Therefore Freo would be in the commanding position.

Freo's 2nd pick will probably be after mid 30's.

Second round starts at 22?, Richmond have a compo pick after Port's 2nd rounder, so that pushes it towards about 34-35.

I imagine St Kilda would get a first rounder for Goddard for compensation, and maybe a couple of others. Teams losing uncontracted players to GWS may also get early 2nd rounder compensation, pushing it towards almost 40.

So I reckon Freo's 2nd rounder will be about right, especially because Freo will have 16 and 21 (approximately, not entirely sure but they have a end of first round comp pick) so they will be happy with 2 good kids from that, and look to use late picks after that imo.

 

[G0ther00s]

3rd round pick, if that. All hype and very little output.

I think he's worth pick 35-45, I wouldn't give much more than that.

 

[Astro Bomber]

No point in having posts from Neutrals if its naive and uninformed.

 

[Mrs Mercuri]

Pears is on the trade table too... Perhaps he can be packaged with Gumby to the Dockers for something.. A player and a 3rd rounder?

 

[King Corey]

No point in having posts from Neutrals if its naive and uninformed.

It's much better getting supporters of each club over/underestimating the player's trade value instead.

Well seriously, it's a weird premise for a thread when the most interested observers are going to be the 2 clubs involved, who else cares?
For mine I can see something involving Roberton if he has actually asked to go home.

 

[Mrs Mercuri]

Gumbleton + Pears for second round pick and a choice of Suban, Ibbotson, Pitt, Roberton

Yep I'd take that... Either Suban or Ibbotson would be fine

 

[Tippett2Goal]

would gumby plus our second be worth freo first round

No

 

[Seb78]

3rd round pick, if that. All hype and very little output.

So why is Josh Caddy worth so much??

 

[The 747]

So why is Josh Caddy worth so much??

Well see, Caddy is 19 years old and has played 24 games, kicking 15 goals as a midfielder.

And Gumbleton is 24 years old and has played 28 games, kicking 33 goals as a key forward.

That clear enough for you?

 

[year of the roo]

Gumby has almost no trade value left. Sorry Dons fans.
