Hello Tiger fans!

The embedded resources below are kept up to date by the trade board mods (as much as possible – we are human after all). Enjoy!

That seems pretty fair, surely we accept that and grant Soldo his wish

Bet we wouldn’t even move for a first unless we have a more than able ruck backup coming in somewhere (and by the looks there isn’t any available ). We aren’t going into the season with one recognised ruck.
Soldo is a massive asset atm.
 


Probably their 2nd round pick not Freo's.

Before everyone jumps at this without thinking, allow me to throw out a different perspective.
What does Soldo offer to us for 2024? It's proven that if he is fit, he is selected. Even if Nank is in the team.
We don't know whether Ryan will be ready to take up the Soldo role yet.
We also just started to see what could potentially be leading up to Soldo's best footy.

Taking all that into consideration, what does pick 41 and a future second offer us (on the proviso that's it's Ports future second)
As some have stated, 41 likely is the middle ground for Kosi, but I'd argue we still get it done for our pick in the 50's regardless.
The future second may end up being a good player, but we don't see the fruit of that until 2026 at the earliest.

I'd agree that if it's Freo's future second then it's hard to say no to.

If I was Blair, 41 and Port's future second would be a thanks for the effort but no thanks.

To me its far more about Ports behaviour at this point, this is not how conduct your business (through the media) and expect an amicable outcome

I don't agree. With Koschitzke and another year into Bauer and Ryan, the only way Soldo is playing is if there is an injury to Nank IMO. A risk you be willing to take for one season for the sake 2 x 2nd rounders.

Eh they're just manipulating the media to appease their fans and put pressure on us. Clubs have different tactics, this isn't a big deal for mine.

Respectfully disagree. If that was the case we wouldn't be fighting so hard to keep him.

Or have we been playing them by waiting for a deal too good to refuse, which I feel like we've just got?

Geez worst case take a mature age ruck with our last rookie pick as a break glass option. We have no picks this year and we improve our hand next year. Can't believe we haven't signed yet TBH.

I feel like you're underestimating the influence Soldo has. Agree to disagree though.
 
Soldo would be rated at pick 14 based on ladder positions for this year, if Port offered Freo's 2nd round pick
Freo F2 pick 25 + pick 41 = 1168 points (pick 14)
That doesn't work for clubs who don't care about points. Would Freo's future second and pick 41 be able to net us a pick around 14?
I'd argue that it definitely wouldn't.
 


Probably their 2nd round pick not Freo's.
