Swans should be very happy with the raw numbers involved in the Papley trade.

If you break it right down, they've effectively turned a 2016 rookie pick and some steak knives into pick 9.

awesome, we’ll give you pick 5 and 25 for Patrick Cripps

that’s a tidy little profit on the pick 13 he cost you in the draft
 
I agree. Both clubs are generally fair and reasonable on the trade table and they've had plenty of time.

I think they'll have had things figured out regardless of whether or not the Daniher trade goes through.

IMO it will be worth your while waiting for the Daniher thing to fall where it may.
9 + something for Paps + our 2nd rounder. If Daniher goes through.
Or a 3-way with Gold Coast to facilitate Martin and Paps to Carlton with pick exchanges.

Its ok for Swans to hold onto Papley but not Essendon with Joe double standards much?

We aren’t asking for the equivalent of 3 first rounders for Papley though.

He will get to Carlton anyway
 
Why? Sydney apparently keep offering us pick 9 for Daniher which, I believe, is still Carlton's pick at the moment?

Maybe Sydney should just accept the generous overs Carlton are offering them for a flakey small forward and we can get this show rolling.
If they're offering pick 9...what does that say to you?

Or we can wait and we are under constant dialogue with Carlton. The trade will go through.

I don't see how the Joe trade is holding up Papley getting to Carlton pick 9 should be just a straight swap with no hassles. Once that trade happens the Swans can then focus on getting Daniher over line and if it doesn't happen bad luck.

That they're holding up everyone else's deals by not completing the trade? We aren't going to trade Joe unless 5 + 9 come into the equation and Sydney currently don't have that pick 9 in their possession. Papley for 9 seems a fairy simple straight swap.

Why would we show our hand early...it’s smart business you know.

If we don’t have puck 9, we can’t offer it to Essendon. We do the trade in the last hour and then we have pick 9 going to the draft

Unless of course you believe the absolute crap that Sydney aren't going to trade Papley unless they get Joe first.
It's already been mentioned that pick 9 has been on the table, so your first sentence is pointless.

It's not a straight swap, we have a couple deals agreed upon with Sydney, now we wait on Essendon before we pull the trigger.
 
What part of Sydney won't let a forward go unless they get one in don't you seem to get?

Thats Carlton and Sydneys problem if they cant get a deal done not Essendons. Essendon don't have to do nothing it's up to the Swans to come up with a trade that satisfies Essendon if not Joe stays

Blue and Swans have a good trading relationship.
SOS and Beatson are probably having conversations about what a nuffy Dodoro is, to kill time.
 
Carlton get Papley and Sydney don't get joe

That's a win for Blues and Essendon fans

I’ll be jumping with joy if we don’t get Daniher- you can keep him for 12months.
