Speculation Tom Barrass [UFA 2027] - Reportedly headed to Hawthorn

[stallon]

Sooooooo, you'll trade Barrass to the Blues for pick 14?

14 and a 2nd rounder, same as we offered you blokes.
Blues also have Carroll who we have showed a bit of interest in.
14+2nd rounder+Carroll for Barrass+f3 might get it done

2025 has a shitload of academy and f/s kids, its way more compromised than this years draft. Its also a weaker draft in general, this years draft seems to be relatively strong

We have 2026 and 2027 picks to chase Warner if we need

Same happens every year, next years draft is weak…. I am not buying it!

I dont care if you buy it or not, its the truth

 

[Dewyyyyy]

Would have thought pick 14 in this draft would be better than an F1. But now the Hawks can offer an F1 and F2 straight up and still have a full suite of picks next year.

The thing is it isn’t. They’ll be similar (the firsts) and the value comes from it being now v next year, although adding a future second to that is definitely of higher value.

They said the same about 2022 and it's shaping up as one of the better drafts in recent memory.

Can really only determine the strength of a draft looking back.

 

[Pendles!]

Potentially P’d off Barrass and his manager whom I believe is Reid’s manager as well.

I don’t believe a big club like WC needs to worry too much about pissing off player managers. Especially not here with a contracted player.

Both under contract. And Reid will leave because west coast didn’t yield to barrass. Talk about extrapolation.

Good to send message that if Reid wants to leave, it ain’t gonna be easy.

Nothing bad here.

It’s your truth!

It really isn't. A weak WA side should have been blown out of the park this year and it wasn't.

 

[ghostbat12]

WC could've taken the original offer and done the trade with Carlton themselves and been better off

So no

So now hawks have no barrass and no picks in this years draft when they believe they can challenge for premiership in 2025.

Well done hawks list management. Well worth cutting your nose for a future pick 35-45.

 

[ghostbat12]

Eagles will ask for Carlton’s first 2024 and Hawks first 2024

Sounds like it’s more hawks future 2x first picks as a starting point now.

We only have predictions to work off.

I know you’re asking for it, I am not sure you are getting it from anyone.

Thanks for your concern, but we’re good.

Of all the super drafts that have been predicted I can only really think of a 2001 and 2018 that actually lived up to the hype.

It's like that old joke.

Economists have successfully predicted nine of the last five recessions.

I don’t believe a big club like WC needs to worry too much about pissing off player managers. Especially not here with a contracted player.

We are loading up on 2025 picks... there may be some top young players out of contract this time next year. Not just draft picks.

Oh dear….. The media was saying the managers become hard to deal with and make it hard to get meetings with their clients. I guess they do have some influence ….. like I said will be an interesting watch.

Hawthorn?

Yes, yes they would've pissed off Nick Gieschen.

Funnily enough if you compare the 2018 'superdraft' to the lesser hyped 2019 draft, the 2019 top end stacks up better IMO.

 

[Ambrosia]

14 + F2 with a F3 coming back. That's what I predicted our offer would be.

Puts TB's value at roughly pick 10-11.

I personally think pick 14 is plenty for Barass but if the eagles think he's worth more than 14 then a swap of F2 for F3 doesn't move the needle at all.

 

[Alex_au]

14 and a 2nd rounder, same as we offered you blokes.
Blues also have Carroll who we have showed a bit of interest in.
14+2nd rounder+Carroll for Barrass+f3 might get it done

Who's to say Barrass even wants to go to Carlton?

 

[THE_GUN]

Pick #14 + F2 was always the Value for Barrass + F3
cant understand why the eagles didnt take that

 

[THE_GUN]

Who's to say Barrass even wants to go to Carlton?

And does the blues even want him ?

More than Houston possibly
