Even if Barrass is upset with the club , he is contracted ..Hawthorn have pursued Barrass so Eagles want to be compensated because two months ago Barrass was our player for another three seasons .

I actually don't think this one will prove to be all that difficult.
Both teams are pretty motivated to make a deal, for their own reasons.
Might be one where both sides are a little disappointed with the eventual price, the sign of a fair deal being done.

Well first acknowledgement from hawks supporters that it’s down to what west coast want.
Richmond supporters on other hand are still all over the place when it doesn’t even involve their club!
Are they motivated? You personally spoke to them, have you?
it ain’t a deal until it’s signed. Just ask barrass.
That’s your problem, only looking at snippets of things to make your point and not the whole thing for context.
This another prime example of you in your glory.
You mean hawks will get it done. Likely by bending over. It’s not for eagles to get it done, it’s a sellers market for key defenders. Ultimately offers to eagles will come sideways and we will know what he can go for.
Then hawks kneel.
That’s not entirely how it works though is it. You can’t trade him to a place he doesn’t want to go. If he wants to go to the Hawks it’s either the Hawks or he stays.
If you’re a motivated seller then he goes to the Hawks. If you’re not, he stays and your list rejuvenation is delayed.
That is true but he has changed his mind on clubs before. It was all Sydney, then dogs and now finally hawks. I am struggling to keep up, are we seriously now thinking that he isn’t capable of changing his mind.
But there are levels of motivation, right. Hardly a fire sale and he still have value by staying. Clearly hawks are a more motivated buyer. Let’s see how it plays out.
I am of opinion he will get there and hawks will pony up. Then all is fair if we get good value for a key defender who is very good. Not rip-off value but good value where you could go “I can live with that”.
I believe it’ll get done too.
But we aren’t going to get bent over, we’ve been through that before and we are also extremely mindful of rejuvenating on the run, so we won’t part with picks we don’t want to. We also have Battle coming in as a FA so TB is less important than he would have been prior to that Battle decision.
Poor barrass not seeing love anywhere. Now hawks are luke warm. He just can’t win with all these clubs not wanting him lol
Fans calling their own players little b&itch is probably why he wants out.
But only for 5 x 1st rounders and will day.
When people ask for a MIN trade, it’s a trap.
We shall see. Never has there been so little interest in a $1m player.
Well, that is only $250k a year for 4 years.
Seems cheap, but if it’s a fire sale then who are we to resist.
Be careful, with that contract he will want out at end of next year.
