Speculation Jake Waterman trade value?

[stallon]

he's already been playing. he's played 9 games.

He was more than fine in those 9 games, playing as the 4th in line KPF with short stints as the chop out ruck.

He needs more AFL games, hes way too good for WAFL.

The Bailey Williams+ Flynn duo ruck attempt was the only thing keeping Jack Williams out of the side

what numbers has he been putting up in WAFL?

Considering the state of the side in general, there isnt going to be great numbers. 4 goals last week though.

Even though he’s contacted if he wants to leave then the eagles would have to let him go.

A straight swap for baker could be on the cards, even if both clubs supporters don’t see this as value.

Are we sure Waterman is a RFA next year?

Isn't all the talk that he signed a small deal?

Would he be in the top 25% paid players at WCE next year? He is likely a UFA


I don't think he's going anywhere anyway but all the talk is he is on a modest deal.

Almost word for word what I asked on the Eagles board.

Is it inside the 25% highest paid at the club or across the AFL.

He still may be in the top 10 paid at the Eagles. They are very young.

Kelly, Gaff, Sheed, Barrass, McGovern, Allen, Duggan, Darling. Thats 8.

Then who? Cripps? Hunt?

You cant hold a grown up conversation with some of these WC nuffs.

Baker worth nothing, Waterman worth a top 8 pick, this says it all.

Baker isnt at the same level as Waterman value wise.

One player is contracted.

Anyone suggesting a straight swap takes the nuffy cake.

One player is top 5 in the Coleman in career best form and fitness and a player 5 to 6 clubs would enter a mini bidding war to land. The other isnt.

Surely these are grown up conversations you understand?

come back to me when your star 27 yo KPF has been good for more than 5 mins

Would ginbey hewett be on the now standard (thanks GC) 3rd/4th year 500k contracts


I could see a world where Waterman isn't top 25% at wce

I can't remember if it's meant to be top 25% in the AFL or the club though, there's a thread somewhere on this board with rules

Unlike some of your nuffies, you included.
Baker worth a top 10 and Bolton worth 3 first rounders

I have never said such a thing, I mean , cool story, needs more dragons next time, 5/10.

 

[THE_GUN]

Any club with a clue would not be parting way with high picks for 27 year old KPP who has averaged a goal a game over his career until a purple patch after 8 years.

Cumberland had a purple patch in 2022 averaging 4 goals a game, anyone want to give us a top 5 pick?

Townsend had a 5 game purple patch in 2017 then couldn't get a game.

WC supporters need to put their peckers away with this rubbish of high trade value.

Shhh stop spoiling the fun
Top #8 pick for Waterman

Currently listed as a RFA in the club focus thread and footy wire site.

 

[Ash1337]

Demons would probably pay a top 8 pick for Waterman if they finish that low.

 

[mattwa]

North need to go chips in. Future first satisfies the Eagles rebuild and backs north's revival next year. If they got Waterman and a KPD the list looks really good

Jake Waterman is worth whatever McKay was before he signed his contract with us

Easily a top 5 pick as a starting point, he has vice like hands, reads the play beautifully and is very skilful

Reminds me a lot of Fev, maybe a bit slower and not quite as good below the knees but a very dynamic, quick and powerful forward

 

[Obeanie1]

come back to me when your star 27 yo KPF has been good for more than 5 mins

Well it seems most neutral posters have somewhat more idea of value than you.

Top 5 in the Coleman at round 18 must be more than 5 minutes of good form.

Pick 8 for Waterman....you have to be joking.

Blokes had 1 good season in 7 and you think a top 10 pick is worthy.

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

Waterman is so far off being worth pick 8 it isnt funny BUT the club who would want him in a trade will be bloody desperate they would cough that up

Demons will have the same level of desperation that Adelaide had for Petty id say who was offered like 3x what he is worth

Cant think of many trades where club A can just demand whatever they want and let it be matched as much as this one. Demons would come to the trade table with absolutely no leg to stand on since both will be on the floor begging

West Coast supporters didn't start the high trade value talk, it was other clubs offering it to us... we'd take it and run like bandits.

If Adelaide offered pick 8 for Petty last year then you'd think Waterman would be on the same level. Take Adelaide's F1 for Petty and turn it into Waterman.
