Pick 4 and 17 for Dawson and 12. Sydney gotta be joking right?

What?

How can people still not recognise what a troll is...

 

[Cromulent]

Sydney been hitting the glass barbie before trade discussion meetings, it seems..

 

[Vhaluus]

There's that yes, unless we have wind that Port are genuinely in the game.

Getting in a bidding war with Port will be to the detrminent of our club.

If they are willing to offer more than we can, let them do the trade.

 

[Soggy2112]

That’s laughable if true.

 

[Crow-eater]

That’s laughable if true.

It's Theo. He's been fed that directly from the club.

 

[arrowman]

I think I would prefer pick 4. If we want to split 4 it would be on our terms such as 7 and 15 which we take to the draft. I don't think we should split though if we really want a particular player at 4

Exactly. Even if we split #4, it would be because we want both of the resulting picks e.g. 7 & 15 - not so we can give one of them up in the Dawson trade. Plus, IMO, if we were contemplating such a split it would be for a live trade on draft night, not in advance.

What?

**** me that's an ambit claim if i've ever seen one

Whether it’s true or not - is it a play from us to make us look like the ‘good guys’ in these dealings?

If so, I like it. That deal is obviously ludicrous for us

 

[WaynesWorld19]

Apologies if this has already been answered previously, but what is the exact process for going through the PSD? Does he have to wait for Sydney to delist him after the trade period, then nominate?

Say he puts himself in there with a demand for a 1 year, $1m contract and somebody else picks him up before us anyway, would he become a free agent for life (due to having been previously delisted by Sydney) at the end of next season?

Yes, Syd delists Dawson because he refuses to sign a playing Contract

The lifetime Free Agent status, which I'm not sure has been formalised, only applies to players with UFA status

So Dawson puts a front ended $1M first year, $550+ for each of the reaming 4 years ......one of North, Coll, GC have to have the TPP room to accommodate

Coll / GC won't have either the TPP room or List spots ......North will, but highly unlikely they would take a bloke whose sole rationale for leaving SYD is to go home

So PSD is likely a 95% chance of being effective with Dawson

I’d imagine we’re just trying to have it known to the AFL and other clubs that we are being reasonable, and if (and I’d still rather we didn’t) we have to go to the PSD, it’s not our fault.

 

[WaynesWorld19]

What?

 

[MRB37]

Sydney just being difficult for the sake of it at this point, but it's early, so they probably figure they can try and pull it off early and go back to renegotiations when we say no.

 

[arrowman]

They said last night that the Crows offered Pick 17 and that the deal included some pick swaps

It's possible that it's the ancillary picks swaps that's holding up the deal.

I tend to agree that 17 will be around the mark and there will most probably be steak knife pick swaps to get the deal over the line.

Quite possible / likely. But there'll be a clock ticking on that, because the Bulldogs will have their own timeline. And the Swans will know that. Probably right now, and assuming of course that the media speculation is accurate, all 3 clubs will know the timeline / deadline. And it very likely will be sooner rather than later, because if they're not getting the trade from us the Bulldogs will want to move on and do a deal with someone else. That's a reason why the Dawson trade probably won't go down to the last day, because the deadline (for the availability of pick 17) will be well before that.

I really hope Reid slammed his laptop shut and walked out of the room

fu** me that's an ambit claim if i've ever seen one

No it's not .....it's just pure idiocy on behalf of Syd

 

[jackster83]

PSD it is then, if they are going to insist on pick 4.

I'd rather let him walk to North than pay that.

Are you sure that it’s a case of Sydney delisting him? Because wouldn’t he become a DFA and we could just sign him?

And the lifetime free agent status applies to all free agents, not just UFAs, hence why Chol was a free agent.

Quite possible / likely. But there'll be a clock ticking on that, because the Bulldogs will have their own timeline. And the Swans will know that. Probably right now, and assuming of course that the media speculation is accurate, all 3 clubs will know the timeline / deadline.

That's a reason why the Dawson trade probably won't go down to the last day, because the deadline (for the availability of pick 17) will be well before that.

I’m guessing both us and Sydney would also like it done so they can start pick swapping to get into the areas of the draft they’re targeting.

So what was SOS the play here? close the laptop and walk out, not a word.
