Speculation Tom Barrass [UFA 2027, reportedly headed to Hawthorn]

Port want 2 early teens picks for Houston.
We want 2 late firsts for Barrass and an early 2nd.

The 2 arent even remotely close
You can want whatever you want driven by WA media spin. Cal Twomey recently said the 2 F1s were driven by media spin and not from club

Ryan Daniels on 7 news tonight said the hold up is West Coast want our future second thrown in. They want this deal done fast so they can get others done with our first.

This should upset so many Eagles fan and even some Hawks fans who were ready to throw in the F1 to get the deal done.

I am glad the MM is earning some of his bread. if Smith is pick 16 with something coming back then pick 14 by itself is more than enough, ideally want something coming back but willing to settle at pick 14 as goodwill gesture and for Eagles to "save face"

Houston may end up going for 13 with something coming back or Blues F1+F2

if Eagles desperately want to win the trade, add a pick in late 40's to mix and Hawks F2 can come in to play.

It honestly doesn't matter what this trade is tbh.
If the reports are true and we're going to forward your pick on to Richmond for Baker then we're losing this trade period by a huge margin. Barrass is a significantly better player than Baker and much more valuable as a key position.
The semantics of any additional picks doesn't make up for our sheer incompetence should the reports be true.

I expect the final outcome of Baker & Barrass won't be a straight swap but more likely a net outcome of;
Out - Barrass
In - Baker, 2 x 2nd rounders
 
Trade period will probably play out like this:
  • WC will ask for 11 + F1st for Barrass + F2nd
  • Hawthorn will offer 27 + F2nd for Barrass + F3rd
  • WC will say no and ask for a 1st Rd pick to be included.
  • Hawthorn will offer either 11 or F1st.
  • WC will ask for 27 or F2nd to be included as well.
  • Hawthorn will offer 11 + F3rd.
  • WC will counter 11 + F2nd.
  • Hawthorn will put final offer 11 + F2nd for Barrass + F3rd.
  • Will drag out till finals minutes of trade deadline with threats from both sides of walking away.
  • minutes before trade deadline closes
  • Hawthorn offer 11 + F2nd
  • WC accept, paperwork lodged.
Bump my post from August, we are at the bolded steps.
