Since when do the media mouthpieces focus so much on the need for AFL approval? Don't recall any other 'trade imminent' tweets or articles mentioning that the AFL is in the process of approving the trade. I guess a 4 club deal is complicated.

Maybe it's just because I'm nervous and just want it done. Start the goddamn car!

you boys know how trading works right?

Spend a whole year trying to convince a contracted player to come over yet when it comes time to deal refuse to move contracted players

It doesn’t have to be moving them to us either can be to a third party. it’s about getting the collateral

If you don’t think you can do that then don’t waste our time

Then maybe line that up before trying to get a contracted player to go to you

Like I mentioned doesn’t have to be moved to us

Choose any other 17 clubs to get the collateral

Might blow your mind but you can actually involve other clubs in a deal

Correct and likewise you aren’t getting it we will hold JHF unless you cough up more

So you better start convincing players I’m sure you guys can be persuasive if you want to be

Get convincing then

Seems you aren’t too bad at it when it’s in your favour

Disagree he’ll go back if we don’t get what we want

Who are these other players that have requested out from us over the last few decades?

Player retention in the last 40 years I’d say is better than any club in the comp

Yeah when in out of contract years

Big difference

Well start talking to him then

My point is don’t go trying to convince contracted players to come unless you are willing to pay way overs

this has pretty much always been the stance despite port and their fans trying to ignore it

According to Damian Barrett, quoting Cal Twomey, the deal has been approved by the AFL.

I reckon we will walk out of this deal with better second and third round picks in 2023 than our natural ones.
 
Fwiw we are giving up a lot. Basically the entire 2022 and 2023 draft hand.

Just because opposition fans are crying, doesn't mean we're getting JHF at value.

But yeah JHF, Wines, Rozee. We need to absolutely be a top 3 midfield for the next 5 seasons.

Ballsy Geelong esque trading

These are the deals that can set up a club well into the future

Worth the "money"

Oh god I laughed. Thank god for that player retention or they would be checks notes ...oh
