News Jackson Hately requests trade to Adelaide

trying to trade down our pick 1 after GWS asked for our first rounder.

will be announced we've swapped out pick 1 to GWS for Geelongs pick 11 (from the Cameron Trade) and Hately

effectively two 1st rounders lads, beers all round!

And when people get angry "well the original deal was going to be for pick 2 rather than pick 1, but seeing as we didn't get that we had to adapt.. but it's ok because we got a future 4th rounder added to match the increased value of pick 1"
 
And I'm Cal Twomey.
Adelaide seems to have gone to sleep again on what should be an easy trade for Jackson Hately...

We could land this deal in a slam dunk today - Atkins compo pick or PSD.

But no... patience, my friends... patience. To go from a position of holding all the cards to getting utterly reamed takes time. Missing an open goal like this is something you can't rush.

You'd think GWS would be in a hurry to close it, though. If Hately gets traded that leaves our PSD pick still open. Essendon's threat to use the PSD to claim Caldwell becomes a bit weaker if they face getting beaten to the punch by us. As long as the Hately trade remains unresolved, our PSD pick is still an option for Hately, which means there's less risk to Essendon of us grabbing Caldwell.

I wonder if it won't be announced until Caldwell and Essendon are sorted. I assume GWS are looking for a reasonably low pick for Caldwell .

GWS might not want to set a precedent with Hately if we trade a pick in the 30/40s, as Essendon would look for a similar outcome for Caldwell.
This is on the proviso we actually get a little bit tougher with negotiations considering we do have pick 1 in the PSD.
 
Surely we crack on with this and get it done before trading up to any picks in the teens

Yep, we should be forcing the GWS' hand to get on with it pronto...we hold the winning hand so I don't get the hold up. But Adelaide 2018 - 2020!

Yeah... id rather they just get it done now and keep that PSD pick 1 freed up incase something falls through the cracks and lands in that draft...

Are you Binuk?
 
Points mean fu** all unless you're using them to match bids.

They are overpaying.

We would be livid if our club did that in their position.
Ok how about
Adelaide: Hately & 7 for 22, 23, 40 & 50
GWS: 22 & 40 for Caldwell & Hately
Essendon: Caldwell, 23 & 50 for 7

How about we just let Hamish and his team do the job we're paying them for.

So your response to "points mean **** all" is to throw in an extra worthless pick that only really has value as points?
 
Everyone needs to calm down a bit. You can't rush these things and there is no point jumping straight in until you have all of the facts on the table.
For instance, we are still trying to work out who this Jack Hately kid is. Then we need to find a phone number for GWS because Reidy changed his phone and lost some numbers.
Once we get that started we just have to wait for Roo to finish his boys weekend and then to get over his hangover.

Once that is sorted we can probably begin. Unless we are watching the vote counting.
 
Hopefully we've just thrown one of our later picks on the table and said take it or PSD. Hately will be a crow, the giants just have a lot on their plate right now.
