Am I missing something here??? The Carlton deal is clearly the better one so why would they go for a lesser deal.
the second oneOh and a hypothetical.
Which deal is the better one for your club? Just say one or the other and don't add to it:
1. Pick 3 + 20 + Kennedy
OR
2. Pick 1 + 20 + Bower
Who else does this Connors represent ?
Let's hope so.Morning guys. I posted elsewhere,but basically last night I learnt a few facts and you blokes will get what you want from Carlton don't sweat it.
From what I learnt Judd is a 99% chance of being a blue for amounts that leave you thinking that I really don't blame him.It's been on for ages and for Carlton to not trade would be leaving Judd for dead.
Honestly.From what I was told,and I trust this bloke. If West Coast sit tight,I don't think Carlton have a choice.Judd has been on promises since mid season.
The Eagles could go for 1,3 and Fev and nearly pull it off I reckon.
Like The Worst has any credibility.The "Worst" reports that WC will only get 3 and Kennedy for Judd.
Ballsacks to that ****ing deal, its bullshit.
Like The Worst has any credibility.
And if so, let him go PSD. Miller wont keep his job if he passes up on Judd.
Judd is the best player in the competition by a country mile and as such Pick 3+20+Josh Kennedy will not suffice.
When Peter Bell decided to leave the ROOS and join Fremantle, Freo forfeited picks 6+8+Jess Sinclair to North.
I would suggest that Judd is worth twice that. To nab Chris Judd, who at 24 is at the peak of his powers, Carlton will need to sacrifice at least 3 first round selections plus a reasonable player.
What do you guys think??
Correct.Eagles want picks 1 + 3
Carlton don't want to give up both picks.
Here's where you logic falls apart.Where does that leave trade negotiations? IMO the sides will have to meet somewhere in the middle. I see 2 scenarios eventuating:
You assume we WANT to be fair.1) Carlton agree to trade picks 1+3 only if eagles include something as part of the Judd package. 1 + 3 for Judd + 13 is a possibility.
2) Carlton trade for another top 10 pick and ontrade it to the eagles. So Judd is traded for pick 1 + pick 6-10 OR pick 3 + pick 4/5.
Would that be a fair and logic assumption to the conclusion of this trade?
You assume we WANT to be fair.
3 + 20 is o.k.
Not fair, not good value, but o.k.
Its not a dud deal either - take it or get nothing.
WCE are the only club who stands to lose here.
1. 3 + 20 is a horrible deal, and anyone with half a brain knows it.
2. Carlton stand to lose by not getting the best player in the competition after he has requested to go there. If you can't comprehend that concept of loss then you are a cretin.
Do we have to go over this again?
Here's where you logic falls apart.
You assume (quite wrongly) that the Blues are compelled somehow to give WCE more.
Why?
If we offer pick 3 and 20, there aren't many other offers that will come that will compell us to top it.
If the Tiges offer 2 and 19, Judd and the AFL won't see that as a significant increase on our offer and won't sign off on it as it is restraint of trade - Judd wants the Blues and the offers are equivocal.
Tiges won't offer more because they will hope they can steal hiom for zero in the PSD.
Carlton WILL walk away from this deal with our players and all our picks in hand if needs be, and take our chances in pricing the TIges out in the PSD.
Well thats too bad because nothing will compell us to offer more.
We will console ourselves with pick 1, 3, 20 and our developing young list.
We don't have him yet to lose.......and the only way we can lose in this deal is if we give you what you are asking for: pick 1, 3, 20 AND Kennedy........Pfft.......dream on.
We would sooner keep our picks and take our chances in the PSD........and YOU WILL LOSE...........YOU WILL GET NOTHING.
UNDERSTAND?
Talk about cretin..........
