How long until the trade period? The dumbest thing in trade threads is the comparisons between players like there’s an objective measure. It’s market forces case by case. Our pick 13 which becomes about 16 is fair. Hawks will give a bit more via a swap to get it done early and eagles will take it. One of the first and easiest trades this year. Then you will need to wait 2 weeks to compare to Bailey smith when Mackie skilfully extracts pick 87 in addition from the dogs as the deal almost implodes in the final 5 minutes of the trade period.

I know you want to make this thread about Geelong - so 1) Mackie isn't in charge of trading anymore and 2) One of the players from those lol picks in the Esava trade was Lawson Humphries.
 
I don't understand. Breust has been at Hawthorn for 16 seasons, should we not have extended his contract to 17 seasons?

You're saying 8 is too long?

Either way, we can always go after Harley Reid instead. Good mates with Watson.
Yeah it's a real shame Reid's only got 1 friend, will make it so hard to get him to re-sign....FMD there's some absolutely stupid stuff on here.

Hopefully In the time period between now and October 4th people learn the difference between

CONTRACTED VS OUT OF CONTRACT

That is the only objective measure that matters.
Contracted players ALWAYS require more to pry away from clubs.
That has always been and always will be the case, any moron on BigFooty who says differently has rocks for brains.

What happened with Bowes by chance?
 
Salary dump, Gold Coast traded a player out that didn’t want to leave because they ****ed their cap and overpaid a guy that was sitting in the VFL every week.

Not sure why this is even remotely applicable to Tom Barrass in any way, shape or form.
Couldn’t be further apart.
West Coast are looking for draft capital, it's highly relevant

It's false logic to assume just because a player is under contract it automatically means you have to pay more, you keeping up?

GC wanted Bowes salary off their books so much that they gave up a top 10 pick to do it

Barrass wants to leave WC because he's being underpaid

The 2 situations are almost exact opposites. Just a bizarre one to bring up here

What the hell are you talking about? Bowes was a salary dump, where GC sent pick 7 to get Geelong to take him.

How is that even remotely relevant to Barrass?
 
Hawks will trade fairly, pick 13 in a very even draft is a reasonable starting point.. West Coast may land a player they rate inside the top 10 at this selection.. throw in a 2nd rounder this year or next and I think that's a fair price for a 29yo A-grader.

This would be a good outcome for both parties, Hawks get a guy who rounds out that backline and West Coast get good draft capital to help push the rebuild along for a guy that likely won't be there when they're back in the window.
 
What happened to us apparently wanting a player along with the hawks 1st?

Has that been proven untrue or has circle work in here removed that from memory?

If we are asking for 2 firsts then 1 certainly won't get it done.
They wouldn't have put 2 firsts out there if they were prepared to accept 1 first, it's just bad pr management
 
23 and our f2(likely about 23 again) would fetch a mid to late teens pick, which is roughly where we'd expect your f1 to land.

That's basically just 13 for Barrass
Fair enough. Think both clubs will be reasonable. Maybe throw in pick 30 or a fringe player also? At least you guys would get 2 1st rounders in that trade.
