Strategy Trade and List management Thread Part 5 (opposition supporters - READ posting rules before posting)

If we can somehow get pick 7 & 15 in the dunks trade imagine if we could do Hunter 13 & 15 to North for Pick 1

Ambitious but damn it would be good

7, 13 and Hunter would probably be considered but doubt 13, 15 and Hunter gets it done. Nonetheless, if we got our hands on 7, I think I would prefer 7 and 13 over 1.

For those watching the draft, how good is pick 2 (seeming though Brisbane match pick 1) likely to be?

 

[adogsfan5]

But we can't get the best player with pick 1. Ashcroft is clearly the number 1 pick. So in effect you are getting pick 2

We can bid on him as pay back for the lions taking Dunkley

 

[Mantis Toboggan]

I sincerely hope no oppo supporters come on here and see us talking about getting Pick 1.

 

[ab_83]

I think there are going to be some disappointed people on this board. If we get pick 7 for Dunkley I wouldn't be expecting much more.

 

[Northernsoul74]

Not sure he would give up the 750k that his contract is apparently worth.
I get it that he wants out, but sitting out a year is not a great choice for a 30yr old.
If he does sit, there's no guarantee that the interest in him will be there

Freo fans reckon his contract was front loaded so the $750k is long gone. I agree he still won’t sit a year out though.

Probably, but I'd really be pushing for their 2023 first rounder too. It's likely to be late, worth less to them due to a potential points deficit, and we hand back a bunch of 2022 picks to help their bids.

I think they will drop down the ladder a bit. Lack of injuries have been a blessing for them, so I can see them missing finals.

Next year is a better crop of players too. Although I would prefer getting 12 months into pick 15 than waiting 12 months for a pick 8-12.

 

[Mr. Walker]

North would be absolute fools to even contemplate that

So you’re telling me there’s a chance?

 

[dergert]

Hunter is the real head scratcher for mine.

Will anyone take him? He's a bloody good player and was a good leader.

Big salary and risks, but he came back at the end of the year and did well.

Can see them dropping a bit ( finals belting can do that), but missing finals probably a stretch given their games at home

 

[Al dente]

If Hunter goes, the pick we get will depend on whether we pay some of his salary, or its a full salary dump

 

[Dogs Rule]

I think so. No world beater but definitely > Madgen

If we get Madgen, I need to know if it's Mad-gen or Madge-en.

Don't know why but I would love to yell out 'Go Madge'.

Big Neighbours fan back in the day.

It is definitely Mad-gen! Madge works well, in our vfl side that is! He sucks!

 

[Dogs Rule]

Melican is fine, not amazing but pretty rock solid.

Rock solid actually sounds good.

 

[The Inbetweener]

Report on The Age saying GWS have agreed to trade Taranto for 12 & 19 and a shuffle of later picks.

Then goes on to say Brisbane are offering only their future 1st for Dunkley.

Cal Twomey also saying the Lions are offering 15 to other clubs for a range of 2nd rounders.

Hope Power can work his magic but it looks like the Lions could be a difficult trading partner.

That's a dog shit deal.

 

[The Inbetweener]

That's a dog s**t deal.

Yep. Think we better hope they get an end of 1st round compo pick for McStay to add to their future 1st

Hope Dunks is happy with Norf then, Power should walk out of the room if that’s their first offer. Would genuinely rather nothing

Also dog shit, we shouldn’t be accepting less than GWS for Taranto.

If they don’t want to play ball then don’t play, simple. What leverage do they have to offer up that shit and except us to take it? Literally zero

 

[Nat Fyfe]

That's a dog s**t deal.

It would be their starting point. They'd know it doesn't come close to getting it done, but will want to pull our asking price back a bit. This always happens in negotiations

 

[Bulldogs85]

Brisbane can stick their future 1st up their ass

 

[The Inbetweener]

The likely outcome, which I dont think is a good one, is we want 2 x 1st. They offer 1 x 1st.
We settle for 1 x 1st and a 2nd rounder

Why are Richmond horrendously over-paying?

I think that's the reality. We should expect that the future 2nd is an upgraded one because if not, it could be close to 40 depending on where Brisbane finish next year and that's certainly not a good outcome.

All those saying Brisbane are good to deal with have no idea.

I said they'd offer dogshit
