It’ll be Amon Compo for Rioli and future 3rd or something similar.

I doubt it’s straight up, that rarely happens.
That's a horrible deal for us. Our future third has the potential to be quite low. It's basically nothing more than a 10-12 spot upgrade.

No thanks.

Yeah ok, all the big talk about PSD and sending him elsewhere is not grounded in reality.

1. If he goes PSD, more than likely he lasts through to Port’s pick, based on the contract on offer and his public commitment to playing there.

2. It’s unlikely other clubs will be keen to touch a ‘not sure if I want to go thereWillie Rioli. He’s got more baggage than a 747 and given the contract he would be expecting, nobody is putting 4 years on the table for him.

3. He’s not staying, and he shouldn’t anyway, so there is no ‘keeping him’. We’d have to match the contract terms which would be ridiculous.

This is a middling trade and will involve 2nd and/or 3rd round picks - maybe coming from both sides.

It’ll get done, both sides will probably think they’ve got diddled for whatever reason.

Yes but would Rioli want the Eagles to be shafted after the effort , expense and drama following his suspension.

Bad look from an AFL overview after two years of drama also .

I highly doubt Rioli cares/understands anything about what compensation we get for him leaving.

That is not something the club would be relying on at all.
 
Port fans bracing for pick 27 plus Frederick for Rioli.

Which is fair since they were saying Frederick was delist material 6 weeks ago.

Absolutely no to sending back a 3rd. A 4th I could live with.
Port fans will want a straight swap for Frederick and Rioli.

I wonder if west coast should do what Fremantle did with Rory lobb? That is, do not comply with his trade request
