There is something else to this trade.

No way it would be held up this long if there was not something else involved.
It's just a game of poker. We want a straight swap, they don't. Only thing we are waiting for is to see who folds first. This will go through to Friday I believe. So sit tight everyone and try not to pull out your hair people who are waiting for this.

The deal isn't done because there are possibly more players or picks involved in negotiations..I feel Taylor Adams is in the bag once all other draft possibilities have been exhausted.

Could well be we are having a go at Pick 1 or 2. Patton would be nice.
 
Oh baby, please be right.

CEO of the Giants, Dave Matthews says "when it's all said and done, Heath will be at GWS, and Taylor at the Pies. We make no apologies for taking our time with this one."

Why anybody 'Likes' this page is beyond me. Have they got anything right this season? Or any season? They didn't even bother to get the quote right.

Yep, he was just on Trade Radio. Missed it myself but:

@traderadio: Matthews on Adams/Shaw deal: I'd agree with (@CollingwoodFC) Derek (Hine), we think a deal is likely to get done

This seems to be the hold up today;

@FOXSportsNews: .@Essendon_FC have a win in the trade period picking up highly-rated utility Shaun Edwards from @GWS_Giants #afl

Hopefully tomorrow the Pies and Giants can sit down and knock up a deal.
 
GWS are trying to bring in a bit of experience whilst also dealing with kids who are sick of living in bogansville playing in front of 1500 people and want to go home.
 
I'd assume that GWS would have earmarked that pick 48 for the Jed Lamb trade. I think we would be looking to hold onto 67 for the potential Karnezis trade too. We could do worse than spend a 4th rounder on a player with decent potential rather than use it in a shallow draft. Am happy to get Karnezis on board.
I don't watch much VFL these days but is teher a better option like a Sam Dwyer in any of the state leagues? That is what Hine would be weighing up.
 
Pretty mature of the Cookie Monster tbh.

He's a changed monster- reputed to favour fruit and vegies over cookies these days.


'Course he hasn't totally abandoned his hedonistic lifestyle..


 
I'd prefer to keep Shaw who is a proven star and our best defender and keep our pick 10 thanks. Shaw is durable and has plenty of good footy ahead of him. Shaw is worth MORE than Adams imo.. I don't understand the argument the we should provide a sweetener. If anything should be the other way round.

Agree re no need for a sweetener but Shaw is not our best defender, I'd take Reid over him every day of the week...
