Confirmed Liam Baker - Now a West Coast Eagle

[Jeremias]

Time for some house cleaning.

1) Do not drag discussions or individual posts over here from other threads or boards.

Feel free to respond to those posts wherever they were posted, if you so choose.

2) Enough with the personal attacks. It’s a long season and this one may go the distance, so if you want to remain a part of the discussion, do it respectfully.

We will use thread bans and infractions if necessary.

Only because you dont have the courage to take it up

Still on the table if you truly believe what you posting pick #21 or higher you win

Courage has nothing to do with it, it's more that it's just so FK lame to go throwing up stuff like...wanna bet....you don't have the guts.
It's beyond cringe to be honest.

So just blow hot air with no conviction. Got it

You do realise that we are not the actual recruiting team here right? We dont know what other deals will happen.

Maybe West coast does some trading that nobody has predicted and ends up with pick 20 which we use for Baker, or maybe we play hard ball and Baker does go to the PSD rather than re-sign with the Tigers and then you guys are forced to take our 2nd rounder at the risk of getting nothing. Maybe Baker just re-signs and this is all for nothing, its so far away still.

There is a lot to play out before anybody can say with ANY conviction at all what will happen, if somebody is being very confident in their "guess" as to what happens, then either they are part of a recruiting team with insider info, theyre trolling, or theyre a clown.

was no chance to leave them ....
Thank god for the ignore option.

I seem to recall the same richmond West Coast posters on here saying Daniel Rioli Chris Judd was no chance to leave them ....
Thank god for the ignore option.

There is always a chance every player leaves Judd & Danger examples
If GC are crazy about him and offer a deal that is just way too good

I'll drive him to the Gold Coast

Im going to put you in the troll category then, going by this response

What a stupid bet.You abuse anyone saying anything outside of a top 10 pick regularly and that's the bet you make?

 

[Tugga27]

Yeah right
Baker has only been on a good salary last 2 years
He is not leaving good cash on the table on his last contract

Which ever team he decides in WA will be paying around the $800k range for 5 years

That wasn't the point.
I didn't say he wasn't on good money.
He's getting good money whether he stays or goes home.

He might just want to come home.

How hard is that to comprehend?

You seem to be obsessed with this possible trade TBH.
Now you're even reading the WC board.

Whatever happens will happen.
All of this placing a bet on an anonymous internet forum is ****ing puerile mate.

What's next "My dad can beat up your dad".

We've all got different opinions on what's going to happen.

At the end of the day, what does it matter whose right and whose not?

It's an opinion.

So im getting the drift here that all the eagles supporters are doing is just posting without backing their opinions

Lets leave our dead dads out of this

Yeah and maybe he is just getting a shed load of cash thrown at him from the 2 WA teams

This is a bit easier to comprehend seeing as he has lived here long enough to stay another 5 years

Oh and the "he bought a house" Its an investment property and WA probably doesnt have the stupid land Tax we have here

Has he left? Did I miss it?

Christ mate, placing a stupid bed on the internet achieves nothing.

How can you "back your opinion"?
It's stupid.

Say Baker goes for pick 15 for example.
Just means you got it right.

At the end of the day, who really cares?

The "dads" comment was just to show you have puerile your repeated posts about the trade are.

Four hundred plus posts on a possible trade and reading our board is ridiculously obsessive.
It's only June, you're on track to crack a 1000 posts.

 

[Jeremias]

Let’s move on from the bet now thanks.

It wasn’t taken, we move on. Not taking it doesn’t invalidate the counter position, nor does it make those holding said position any less confident and nor should it.

 

[Wild Bill]

Looks like he is an Eagle in 2025. With a bottom 3 finish their 2nd rounder looks not far off the mark - maybe with some exchangers of later picks to help it over the line.

signing on with Richmond harder

Me or THE_GUN

 

[Lia]

LoL don't make me laugh.

Richmond fans think Liam Baker isn't worth a couple of 1st rounders. LoL

The fact that Eagle supporters are agreeing with Freomaniac should be the ultimate indicator that Richmond fans in this debate are delusional.

If he cares that much about Richmond while leaving he can stay there and enjoy the bottom 4 for the next 5 years for all we care. His considerations about compensation are largely irrelevant.

Well going to the eagles wont change staying bottom 4


Shocking list

 

[Byron_Clanger]

The spanner in the works is how the AFL's changing the draft points, ect, ect that's apparently being announced tomorrow. That being said, I ain't trading a first round pick or splitting our first pick to give one up for Baker, sorry.

 

[Sherriff Incorporated]

We really don't.

Most of us aren't interested in him at all and hope he stays.

Hence why there is only a handful of posters from West Coast regularly contributing to this thread.

i'd take their list over Richmond's currently. Are you seriously saying Richmond's current list is better than West Coasts?
