List Mgmt. Our Trade/FA, Suburban & Country Town Thread

I feel like we're only moments away from Ralph or some other lightweight earnestly declaring:

"Every single player on Collingwood's list in 2025 is going to be one year older than they were in 2024, yet here they are chasing Dan Houston

He's not worth pick 6, although it's largely irrelevant to any discussion between us and Gold Coast regarding Noble's worth.

It is relevant as it’s the club we are dealing with

 

[HFF]

That pick 11 could be the difference in Carlton landing Houston really
If Freo are willing to deal it to them.
Makes it interesting if we still would pursue pick 13 to have in anyhow

 

[Sweeetleftfoot]

All good to have a great half back, but when we rebound, who are we kicking it to?

Really hoping that daicos kid comes on, could be handy.

 

[Seedsfan]

Also both Riley and Cal mentioned Suns don't want to give pick 23 as well, how would we get the Houston deal done with pick 13 + Joe Richards?

If they want Noble for nothing then we hold him to his contract

 

[sr36]

It is not reasonable at all it is Dimma helping his old club out. You are kidding yourself if you think Rioli is worth pick 6

You're getting outraged by a deal that doesn't involve us and hasn't occurred. If they traded 6 to another club to get 12 and enough points for Lombard and then traded 12 for Rioli, noone would bat an eyelid.

 

[danielnajdek]

Then we don’t trade Noble. Pick 13 and Noble for our f1 is a awful deal for us.

 

[HFF]

Also both Riley and Cal mentioned Suns don't want to give pick 23 as well, how would we get the Houston deal done with pick 13 + Joe Richards?

Wait so they want to swap first rounders and have us throw in Noble?

Are they serious?

That would only happen if Bolton didn't get traded to Freo, which is going to happen....

 

[stormskye]

Sounds like the Suns are really trying to bend us over with the Noble deal and pick 13 yet giving Richmond big overs for Rioli. Time to play hard ball with these peasants

Think it’s more the fact they have other potential suitors bidding for it

 

[WakeUpPies]

[Jafo]

So if Tigers want more than pick 6 for Rioli, where does this leave Bolton? Surely Bolton much better player than Rioli.

Maybe we can catch the (pick) fallout

 

[HFF]

That would only happen if Bolton didn't get traded to Freo, which is going to happen....

But they got two other picks anyway to hand over for Bolton….

 

[Seedsfan]

How’s the irony Carlton may land our pick 11 to get Huston. Goes to show all the let’s burn a future first crowd that maybe sometimes it is best not to live like a millionaire on pay day then go hungry the rest of the week

 

[Basil brush]

Unless trading Noble gets us Houston, I would be keeping noble, like others have mentioned. I don't think noble would kick up a fuss if he had to stay, but I don't know exactly what sort of character he is.

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

Also both Riley and Cal mentioned Suns don't want to give pick 23 as well, how would we get the Houston deal done with pick 13 + Joe Richards?

That can’t work in isolation

There’d need to be a 3-way trade with Port involved there so all 3 parties get what they’re ultimately after

 

[Pistol Night]

Is Lachie Schultz dead now or something?

 

[Seedsfan]

On no world is Rioli worth pick 6 at all. A fair but would have to come back to the suns

 

[live fast pieyoung]

yup this is all confected nonsense

reality is GC , Port and Pies all need to deal with each other . If one leaves the table then they'll all fall over. NO interest in any of them squeezing out the last drop. Just get something fair and move on. Will happen

 

[TradeDraft]

Houston goes who more Desperate for him between Pies and Blues

Have to pay Overs

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

That Lukosius is tangled up with the Houston deal.

 

[magpies2013]

We will get bent over this trade period some how, it happens every year

How's the Irony in this post!
Blues will blow away 2 drafts (this one and next) in order to achieve Houston.

How will they blow away two?
They’ll still have their first rounder for this year which is 12

Yeah it seems to all be various media pundits creating sexy narratives to spice up what is ultimately a boring drawn out period of the off-season

Collingwood, Port Adelaide and Good Coast are all tied to each other whether they like it or not and all want something from the other

It’s in all their best interests to get it worked out.

Gold Coast want Noble and picks for next year

Collingwood wants Houston and if possible, something for this year’s draft

Port wants Richards, Lukosius and a fair deal for Houston

Between the three we should be able to work out a fair deal
