I’ll enjoy this wank, cheers

Could we have done better with Noble on the table or were we just being kind to get Noble across to GC?

nah I think the deals fine, it’s just that the Rioli trade is so batshit crazy that it’s skewed everyone’s perception of what players are worth

As someone mentioned yesterday this is the classic bigfooty trade of send out a pile of middling to garbage assets and get back a star

Exactly. It's not supposed to work like that. Putting together lower rated players or picks, doesn't get you a star. We were just lucky that's all we had to give. If we had more Port would absolutely have demanded it.

One thing I missed in my last post: the inflated value of pick 13 also helped us a lot.

This 100%.

Houston is the best player we have traded in over the past decade. An absolute gun. Kicks the ball like a young Buckley and is a big game/moments player. I'm absolutely stoked to get him in. And Perryman really strengthens our Best 23 too.

Wish list for the next 24 hours? Jack Hayes and Tomlinson to boost our tall stocks at both ends of the ground. I don't think we need Membrey but Robertson from Bris looks worth a punt and fits an age-group need.

Tomlinson is the worst player in the competition by some way now that Gary Rowan is without a home. He shouldn’t be getting a game at Collingwood VFL.

Much rather Membrey.

So wrapped we got this done!!
Makes up for a really shitty day where my horse went all the way to Kilmore and I nearly did too, only for the track staff to take out the whole rail while moving the barriers and the whole meeting gets called off.

 

[Maggie5]

Do we get a pick for Bolton going to Saints?

 

[whiskeytown]

Collingwood's social media team absolutely slacking

West Coast already posting about Owies and Baker

Likely damage control over at the Water Closet Eagles

 

[Markfs]

Value-wise, Howe and Crisp have been our best two traded-in players over the past decade but talent- and impact-wise, Houston is a cut above both of them.

he hasnt played a game yet while the other two has done pretty well for us over the years...

Well at least I only have to watch the second night of trades.

Dan just followed Bobby on instagram

[watt price tully]

Never in doubt

 

[upnsmoke]

Carlton fleeced Eagles.
Some here stated that Blues were sending Future picks, but its not on the cards. Its a clean robbery.

 

[Axl the great]

This 100%.

Yep agree, Without other players involved, Port would have been justified in asking for a top 10 and a late teens pick and it would have been reasonable.
I think next year we definitely need to target young stars, this is the last time we should go to the well for mature players.

 

[ThePhantom777]

So we have no early pick in this great draft

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

Never in doubt

It legit wasn't

I'm honestly surprised so many fell for the fake drama being drummed up by all the stooges in the media

 

[tmpies01]

Jon Ralph struggling to cope, Sam Edmund nowhere to be seen… it’s glorious

 

[jakson68]

nah I wanna hear from KANEO

Alarm is set for early trade tomorrow

 

[3rdMan]

Yeah and the lost flexibility of having pick 10 was the biggest factor, IMO. Had we kept 10 we wouldn’t have needed to do so much work on 13 with GC and could have approached everything differently. I’m team Shoota though so no complaints here.

If we had pick 10 the deal may have been easier, but I'm sure we'd have given up more: both 10 and F1. Instead we have Schultz and Houston. Much better than just Houston alone. We'd have kept some later picks, but don't think either 10 or F1 would have stayed with us.

 

[upnsmoke]

I said I wanted everyone and we basically got everyone, bit of an L with Peatling, have to admit, but we had nothing left to trade in hindsight given we ended up with Houston. 10/10 trade period

I wanted Peatling for the Pies. I thought he would continue to get better and make a name for himself next season.

If Pies got him, I would be a lot more confidence with Pies depth and young talent.

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

So we have no early pick in this great draft

So?

Hine would have just wasted it anyway

When was the last time Hine actually nailed a first round pick that wasn't a Father Son or Academy player?

De Goey. Dude has absolutely botched first round trading for a decade.

 

[WakeUpPies]

So we have no early pick in this great draft

My brother in Buckley we just picked up a 2x AA in his prime. Who cares about some 18 year olds at 13 & 36.

 

[TradeDraft]

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

Probably a moot point by now, but any point trading a couple of pick in the 50s for 49?

 

[Kes1984]

Reckon we all call in to SEN tomorrow to tell Kane how thrilled we are about getting Dan!

He was already getting so triggered by Collingwood people today.
