List Mgmt. Trade & F/A - 2018/2019 - Part 3

[TradeDraft]

And we gave them Witts for a packet of chips. We always roll over in trades.

We did with Hine but looks not with Huy

 

[Crazy Tails]

Wowser. May for 6 about right but KK is almost a freebie!

 

[MagpieJoel]

Check out the melts on here already.

 

[Maggie5]

Damn, Melbourne deal is good, frees up McDonald to go back.

[PIEWITHSAUCE]

Hopefully there's going to be a lightbulb moment soon when we understand what we've been doing this week . Unless we've been just focused on Beams this whole time

Demons did bloody good there.

 

[MagpieJoel]

May a done deal to demons, should have focused more on him then another midfielder that is not needed.

How many times does it need to be said?

We did not have the currency!

 

[Mukesh]

Damn, Melbourne deal is good, frees up McDonald to go back.

Actually doesn’t it free him up to stay forward ?

 

[sr36]

and KK for pick 6....


Are we the only club that has to pay overs every ruddy trade? for then supporters to console themselves with dillusions of what we give up because we did good with change we got back...

Nah. Melbourne are the big losers of these trades. Hogan for May and KK. A young KPF with elite talent for a a middle of the road back flanker and a 27 year old key defender who's never set the world on fire, despite his big reputation. I can understand why we as a club may have been willing to overpay for May, but Melbourne has solid young defensive options. Couple this with Pruess and their trade period is really confusing to me.

 

[unplugged]

So how do we get pick 2?

 

[loki04]

If you pay for something with two $50 notes, and they give you the product and a $20 note in change, would you say you paid $100 for that item?

If you had 2 cows and got back a goat, would you say you paid 1 cow and a goat?

Monetary payments don't work with this system of trade commodity.

Another 5 Hours of Trade Week to Go.

Gonna Lose my Mind

 

[DaVe86]

Both for pick 6?????? Wow

 

[Crazy Tails]

Of course they are. All bluff and bravado Dave just to pad it out. Driving a hard bargain continues to make them look strong before letting him go for a solid deal.

Deal will get done.

Maybe they got so bruised by that West Coast thrashing they decided they needed a new KPD to stop Kennedy/Darling?

 

[frantelle]

So how do we get pick 2?

I've been checking in and out of this thread, but from my understanding it had something to do with a gobby.

 

[TradeDraft]

Both for pick 6?????? Wow

Shows that People happily Trade with everyone Except Collingwood

 

[frizzle]

So how do we get pick 2?

I think they give it to us after the trade period for creativity.

 

[Maggie5]

Actually doesn’t it free him up to stay forward ?

Not Tom, the other brother. Didn't he start off as a forward? Maybe I have it wrong?

KK a good pickup too.

Melbourne were losing Hogan no matter what, the fact that got him (may) and talented BUT injured KK for a single pick is excellent. We have been told all fortnight GC requested of Pies (and others but mostly aimed at us) for May 2 firsts rounders one being top 5.

I think they got a goat and a sloth

 

[AmericanMustard]

KK isn't very good let's be honest. Melbourne on paper may look better but the quality of player has reduced. Jesse Hogan is a much much better player than May. Melbourne rolled over to Fremantle because May was on the table.

Jesse Hogan is a 23 year old kid who just kicked 47 goals despite missing 4-6 games an injured foot and having testicular cancer. He'd be a 65+ goal a year forward in our team and also has the ability to run through the midfield Roughead style. It should have been a two first rounder trade every day of the week.

 

[Collingwood HQ]

How many times does it need to be said?

We did not have the currency!

It's about creating currency like alot of other clubs have. We have a surplus of smalls in the team make a call for a needed deficiency.

 

[Kirby]

Shows that People happily Trade with everyone Except Collingwood

No it doesn't.

It shows that GCS have stuffed up their salary cap. KK is a very average player anyway (maybe at best a round 3 pick if on his own).

There defence needs May big time. The younger McDonald is out of his depth on key opposition talls.
Cox tore him a new one on Queens birthday as well. Now the older McDonald can stay forward & the younger one gets less dangerous opponents.
Good call list wise. I like Hogan but think he is a little over valued.
