Speculation Kysaiah Pickett [RFA 2027]

[gungho]

There's not any real world we can get both, it's at best one or the other and that's amazing enough by itself.

The club simply doesnt trade people out that want to be here and even if they did, you get cents on the dollar on those trades. Suppose if Brayshaw left we'd probably have the currency in cap and draft picks but I'd rather not think about that situation

I still think both is possible but a player of quality will have to go. (Not Brayshaw). Cox or Darcy maybe?

I think you’ll struggle to find a buyer of Darcy’s contract. If he’s desperate to get back to Victoria and willing to take a length and pay cut there’d be a couple of teams interested I’d say.

The best thing for us would be Melbourne tell us to **** off…This year.
We then hope Chad is ready to FLAGMANTLE.

And we have another look at Kozzie next year when we’re all about Robinson and ready to get rid of our first…

Geelong are pretty keen on him. Have been for a while. If Freo threw in some cash for the first few years he'd be worth at least a first and change. You'd still have to pay him 800k a year I'd say.

We should have space, both salary and draft capital, if we get rid of Sean Darcy. I reckon it will be tempting. Erasmus could also go if he doesn't crack the best 22 this year. (Admittedly not for much draft capital).

No one is taking Darcy's contract unless you are planning on a Bowes type deal.

Geelong were keen years ago but they have moved on and drafted a lot of rucks since then and they wouldn't take his length of contract with his leg issues. We have been burnt by injured rucks too many times. I can't see an obvious buyer for him if freo were going to move him it had to be in free agency its too late now.

Had heard the same previously but doesn’t seem like a Geelong ruckman, seem to prefer the more mobile multi positional types. Would be very surprised if they handed over a 1R with their trade history, as you say would depend how much of the salary Freo are prepared to contribute. Part of the reason you’d trade him is to free up cap space.

Won't have that first if we get Chad

You conveniently forgot to mention also nearly 3 years younger

Pick #3 + #30 who you taking Bolton or Warner

At the time of trades itll be 2 years difference - actually a year and 5 months. Pretty close in age. Dont be deceptive like that

Obviously taking Warner, but whats that got to do with what I said before?

Bolton contracted = costs more than normal
Warner uncontracted so doesnt cost more than normal

If they cost the same in trade assets, then the uncontracted Warner is better value

Cox AND Darcy maybe?

Lets see who is correct at the end of the trade of it happens
I was correct on Bakers trade and also on Bolton and confident that Warner will be min top 5 pick if not more

talk about being 'deceptive' a year and 5 months lol
Warner has 8 years of football , He will not be coming cheap both picks and cash

 

[theGav56]

This is hilarious. Darcy is going nowhere. He is also more important to the side than Pickett if it comes to that.

Cox I guess could be possible given the KPDs coming through: Draper looks a beauty.

OK

Yes? Not 3 years, the age difference isnt that much

Warner has 8 years of football , He will not be coming cheap both picks and cash

Nobody suggested he'd be cheap???

Well thats whats been fueling this thread the last how many pages ?
eagles supporters delusionally thinking they can get him without using a top 5 pick
No Chance that happens and your Hawks pick and F1 wont cut it

Is pick 12ish + a bottom 4 teams f1 pick not a substantial offer?
You are delusional if you think its not

It might not happen that way, but its far from a bad offer

Not to mention Richmond happily having a fire sale to refresh there list opposed to Demons holding almost every contracted player who wants out they can.

The big question is if Melbourne perform in 2025 or if you slide further and the wheels fall off. I assume you will have a new coach if it is the later and it will probably be a good opportunity to cash in on any players who don’t want to be there.

Bolton deal is close in value but Freo can only trade what they have and 2 first rounders is fair for a small forward, even though he is a top shelf one. Maybe a fringe player in a position of need for the Dee’s as steak knives depending also how Freo go and how our team looks.

We’re not forcing anybody out who wants to stay though.
