Fair enough mate, my mistakeit can be traded, melbourne have just said they wont as they wanted to keep 3 or 4. so they are keeping 4.
Guys stop stressing! Like I posted early in the week my mate at a rival club is still telling me Adelaide is still likely to end up with pick 4, pick 42 and GHS. For those of you who don't know what I'm on about check out what I posted on page 184 of this thread. Wellingham side of things already done as I was told.
Gillette are loving it tooIt keeps the word AFL in the media for 2 more weeks than normal, they'd be loving it.
But it doesn't make you right now. I will always give benefit of the doubt, it's in my nature. Is being a miserable, pessimist your nature? Coz I know what I'd prefer.Now you do, back then it was the concussions, going home and not about the money. We said it was about the money and were right
You mean like a lot of us will look like idiots and have egg on our faces when Tippett stays?I'm sorry, but that is pathetic, and a lot of you will be doing 360 turns when this is over.
I really dont know.
Today i was told they would be happy with a quality player and 24.
Problem is sydney dont want to give anyone at this stage.
Which also means its hard to involve other clubs in the deal.
Its only the 5 th day still 16 or so to go.....
Sydney have to give up one of their quality players wont work otherwise
Yes, Harper did today.
If we assume that no Swans premiership player will be traded, then the only players with currency on their list - in terms of reaping a top-20 or better draft pick - are Rohan, Mitchell or Lamb. Ireland said Mitchell is off the table, so that leaves Rohan or Lamb. The other one still being mentioned is Parker (the Grand Final sub) who would definitely be worth a pick between 11-20.I really dont know.

Harper also confirmed Rowey's story that there were some issues supposedly stemming from his old contract that were causing issues with his trade.
Maybe the trading clause was true afterall ??
hodra said:Guys I'm hearing from a mate involved at another club that up to 6 clubs are likely to be involved in the Kurt Muppett trade. My mail is something similiar to the below is being looked at as a likely outcome, but may happen in stages:
Collingwood - Gain: Reid, Lose: Dawes & Wellingham
West Coast - Gain: Wellingham, Lose: Pick 17
Adelaide - Gain: Pick 4, 42 & GHS, Lose: Muppett & Pick 40
Sydney - Gain: Muppett & Pick 40, Lose: Reid, Picks 22 & 42
Melbourne - Gain: Dawes & Pick 17, Lose: Pick 4
Geelong - Gain: Pick 22, Lose: GHS
Hoping FAITH can shed some more light

WTF? No he didn't. He refused to enter into it. Jesus people.
Agreed... I thought the same thing.WTF? No he didn't. He refused to enter into it. Jesus people.
Can you say what club your friend is involve with?Exactly. I am told it is likely Reid to Collingwood, who are pushing hard to get him
Not precisely, but that was the impression I got. No other club was mentioned. But no, he didn't say it in those words, so I'll retract that. He didn't expressly say they wouldn't use the PSD either, but when Cornes said that it wasn't good enough in reply to Harper saying we wouldn't get another Kurt Tippett for Kurt Tippett and would seek to get the best deal from Sydney that we could, he said, fairly condescendingly, that the alternative was nothing. It was very clear that nothing is not considered and option by us.Did we say that we are going to take the best offer Sydney give us?
Don't mean to shoot this down... but you would think a rumour like this, if true, would have made the press by now. Collingwood are the most 'watched' club in the country.Exactly. I am told it is likely Reid to Collingwood, who are pushing hard to get him
Good point.Dandy- the only rational alternative to us having no idea how to conduct negotiations is that the deal has already been largely agreed upon and we're past the point of bluffing.
My uneducated guess is that we probably had a first round pick specified, believing it would either be a top 3 pick from the Gold Coast or a decent pick from Brisbane.Harper also semi confirmed Rowey's story that there were some issues supposedly stemming from his old contract that were causing issues with his trade.

**** off Jenny. Just because I'm not naive like you doesn't make me a miserable pessimist.But it doesn't make you right now. I will always give benefit of the doubt, it's in my nature. Is being a miserable, pessimist your nature? Coz I know what I'd prefer.
Meh - I'd rather panic now and over react and be wrong than stay calm and end up with nothing and a pissed off attitude because we rolled over and took the lube.

As usual those two boneheads could have pressed the issue a bit better, but Harper said he was sick of talking about that trade, and deliberately led them onto the topic of Crouch instead.
It really wasn't a positive interview.
