Speculation Harley Reid [OOC 2026]

[Strapping Young Lad]

This will go nowhere if we're talking about 3-4 first rounders, can you please put the Eagles guy who negotiated the Baker trade on the phone?

In 2024 it would go nowhere, but in 2025 and beyond it will be doable when clubs have access to picks 2 years in advance.

 

[Dez!]

So he is only worth a tiny bit more then Shai Bolton?

So the Eagles board has their own version of danster?

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Internal chatter in ones head is chatter to some people

You’re embarrassing yourself.

 

[Barrybran]

Yep

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

You’re embarrassing yourself.

Sorry I replied to wrong post

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

Yes and no. I make actual predictions and get a ton correct and a ton wrong.

People only focus on what you get wrong though

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

People forget also though that future picks are worth less then current picks . Because of this then the 4 first rounders 100 percent comes into play

It will be a unique trade so pretending like it has a defined value against previous trades probably isn't realistic in any case

People also forget we rejected 3 1st rounders already. Why are we taking less after he proved he can do it at AFL level

What would you have wanted for a young James Hird?

Pick 16 and Daniel Metropolis for James Hird is what he is suggesting

 

[Barrybran]

That would sound like an awesome deal after Metro's first game

 

[Purple Suit]

Pick 16 and Daniel Metropolis for James Hird is what he is suggesting

What about Pick 16 & Daniel Metropolis for Tom Scully?

Harley Reid might be tracking well but he’s not an AFL legend quite yet.

 

[Nuggs Bunny]

What would you have wanted for a young James Hird?

Depends, does he still go on to coach your club afterwards?

If he does return to Vic, he won't be choosing Geelong.

Liam Pickering thinks otherwise.
Has told me Geelong are very much in the mix.

Who told you Geelong are out of the question?

Cool, Liam Pickering.

A rival player manager. I'm sure he'd 100% know what Paul Connor's client's moves are.

He certainly knows a hell of a lot more than one of us supporters.
And having worked for Liam, he told me this in good faith so I'm confident that when the time comes, Geelong will be one of the main clubs in discussions with Harley and his clan.

Cool.

Again, if you'd put up Paul Connors/Nick Gieschen, your comments might appear more credible.

Has about as much credibility as Alex Witherden on radio the other day, just after being delisted, stating that Harley would 'definitely' stay, before cutting himself off saying 'he'd said too much.'

Witherden has the same manager as Harley, FWIW.

What if West Coast continue to be horrific and fail to improve in the next few years . . . you still confident Harley's satisfied staying put as long as it's only about the $$$?

 

[amazingjoshy]

And you decided to post it on a public forum full of footy nuffies?

Says alot about you then if true

How many #1s leave the club they're drafted to?

Why is Harley such a 'special' case?

'Good faith' = Spill the beans on a footy forum.

If he did leave why the **** would he want to go to Geelong anyway? His best mates play at Hawthorn and Essendon

I reckon Hawthorn might be off the list now

Yeah, Nick Gieschen and Paul Connors reportedly not too happy with the pick 14 shenanigans...
