This image should be the next response our media team should put out.

I mean, at some point an offer would be too good to refuse, right?

 

[Wooshaaaa]

WCE gain: Pick 2, pick 8, NM F1
WCE lose: Pick 1, pick 23

North gain: Pick 1, pick 23
North lose: Pick 2, pick 15, pick 17, F1

Geelong gain: Pick 15, Pick 17
Geelong lose: Pick 8

Fair?

Hell yes.

If north tank next year and end up bottom 2 that F1 can be split next year for around 8 and 12 making the reid trade.....

1 for 2 8 8 12

Next year 1 8 12!!!

Crows would jump at trying to prize that F1 from us now and we could get 10 14 F1

That then makes the reid trade....

1 for 2 8 10 14 crows F1


Next year 2 first rounders still.

You'd think that but theres a phrase called non negotiable trades. Why Collingwood would never trade nic Daicos. Or we would never trade nic nat ages ago

People probs view Reid in that light. I don't necessarily disagree and understand

In saying that I maintain

2 + 3
2 + F1 + 15 or 16 or 17 ( cos media said we need an extra pick )

 

[Happy Mastenator]

Pass for me, the kids a very outside mid, that granted has all the talent, but prefers bruise free football.

I don't have a lot of time for footballers " who won't go, when it's their turn to go".

I agree normally, but we are loading up on some contested inside beasts. A bruise free runner can be carried to a little bit. We definitely need more run.

If we could get him on a 1 or 2 year contract i'd be ok with the risk to see if he can add just enough heart.

 

[Happy Mastenator]

Based on North’s starting offer to us, they probably offered one of those picks, a future third and a signed 1996 premiership poster.

And 5 tickets in the club raffle to win a Mazda that they will in now way rig to ensure Boomer Harvey wins again.

 

[Happy Mastenator]

WCE gain: Pick 2, pick 8, NM F1
WCE lose: Pick 1, pick 23

North gain: Pick 1, pick 23
North lose: Pick 2, pick 15, pick 17, F1

Geelong gain: Pick 15, Pick 17
Geelong lose: Pick 8

Fair?

I'd make the trade. But there is no way North are going to do that.

 

[Ambrose Burnside]

WCE gain: Pick 2, pick 8, NM F1
WCE lose: Pick 1, pick 23

North gain: Pick 1, pick 23
North lose: Pick 2, pick 15, pick 17, F1

Geelong gain: Pick 15, Pick 17
Geelong lose: Pick 8

Fair?

Who would you take with 2 and 8 vs 1 and 23?

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Do they exist for players that are yet to play a senior game of AFL?

I know Reid looks like being virtually a sure thing but he’s not actually a sure thing.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Who would you take with 2 and 8?

With the caveat that I don’t watch any junior footy and base my opinions solely on others’ descriptions of players … I dunno, McKercher and O’Sullivan maybe?

 

[Altum Volantes]

WCE gain: Pick 2, pick 8, NM F1
WCE lose: Pick 1, pick 23

North gain: Pick 1, pick 23
North lose: Pick 2, pick 15, pick 17, F1

Geelong gain: Pick 15, Pick 17
Geelong lose: Pick 8

Fair?

For WCE - yes, I would say that’s a pretty good slice.

Everyone else, I kinda doubt it.

Geelong would want the 23 as well I suspect which would hurt the chances of North agreeing.

Too much for North to part with regardless I think - they’d probably push for future 2nd rather than future first I think.

 

[bzparkes]

I still say Sharp fills a hole on our list, if Freo intend to take him in the PSD I say we draft him regardless. Even if he would prefer to be playing in purple for some unfathomable reason, the prospect of 20 plus matches as a beagle will see him pushing hard to wear the blue and gold.

Pretty sure they can just sign him as a DFA.

 

[Truckosaurus]

No thanks to Sharp. If we want a one-way runner on the wing we can move Sheed there.

 

[swingdog]

WCE gain: Pick 2, pick 8, NM F1
WCE lose: Pick 1, pick 23

North gain: Pick 1, pick 23
North lose: Pick 2, pick 15, pick 17, F1

Geelong gain: Pick 15, Pick 17
Geelong lose: Pick 8

Fair?

Like Geelong is ever going to give anything up to be 'fair'.

 

[6285sutto]

Pretty sure they can just sign him as a DFA.

That would mean that we can too

 

[ZergMinion]

Like Geelong is ever going to give anything up to be 'fair'.

The also have to hold out for pick eleventy three on top of what's been offered.

 

[bzparkes]

That would mean that we can too

Yeah but that only works if he wants to go to WCE. Freo were after him last year also.

Probably best to look up who his manager is...

 

[eaglesnutcase]

Someone in an Eagles fan group on Facebook said Twomey expects North’s next offer to be 2,15,17 and 18.

I probably would’ve accepted that when I thought guys like Leake and Windsor were a chance to be there at 15, but now they won’t be, I’m not so sure.

I agree. Or 2 + F1. Norf are doing the Bali bartering school of shopping. Chuck a few silly offers in on the off chance WC are stupid enough to take it.
Then slowly start with less stupid offers.Nibble away and then close to the time bang out your big offer.Designed to slowly wear down one’s resistance to a deal.
It’s giving me Bali Belly!!!

 

[sey666]

Pick 1 for 2 & 3 OR as Miguel Sanchez said 2, 8 and NM F1. NM F1 must be their own pick 1 and it is North’s responsibility to obtain pick 8.


Otherwise

and JTR.

 

[flamingEMBERS]

No thanks to Sharp. If we want a one-way runner on the wing we can move Sheed there.

Sharp is quick and runs and carry though?

 

[Monocle]

Caveat Emptor ......................... is your friend.

 

[eaglesnutcase]

Unless we get pick 2 as part of the split... McKercher is the best mid in this draft.

Yea but Reid is the best everything in this draft!!

 

[Goldfish]

Yea but Reid is the best everything in this draft!!

The kid is a star, but there are question marks over his cardio... I'm just playing devil's advocate - unless there's a godfather offer JTR.

I love the kid's swagger and he's a marketing dream (which we're in need of after recent retirements), but those expecting him to come in and lift this club off the bottom of the ladder singlehandedly may need to temper their expectations somewhat.

 

[WCE_phil]

North's future first is the key to the deal. I want 2 of the top 5 mids next year.

2,15,17 and their future first for 1, 23 and our future second. (depending on who is available i''d then look to package up 15&17 for 1 higher pick and 1 30's pick because of whom and where i rate them in the draft)

Two top 5 picks next year is the key point in a draft with a very strong midfield group.

 

[eaglesnutcase]

Every time you clowns put up these trade scenarios and pat yourselves on the back saying “ I’d certainly take that “!!
Always address the question;
Why are they willing to pay that much for Reid??

1 perceived knock on his game, i'll take it. Could have a Petracca like trajectory spending most of his time at half-forward until he builds his tank up. Saying that he will never be a full-time midfielder, Reid see's himself in the Dusty, Petracca mould splitting time between midfield and forward.
