campbell on the sunday footy show said "no way and tiger for life" when quizzed about itBloke in the Campbell thread who has a connection says he won’t return to Tassie, who knows with the other two
This is why drafting talls can absolutely reek
That may be there offer ,We should ask the eagles for two second round picks for baker. If that’s say 22 this year and 24 next year that’s a good result.
think we all want a better offer..We should ask the eagles for two second round picks for baker. If that’s say 22 this year and 24 next year that’s a good result.
Would upset quite a few. Would upset Eagles fans toothink we all want a better offer..
but the reality might be this could well be it from the eagles
*understand few highly value Baker and would scoff at that offer- but I would accept ( if baker agrees to depart)
Love Tiger71Bit of a small trade update from Tiger71 on the Tigercast tonight.
In my opinion, I'm excited by the LDU talk because he is the type of midfielder we are lacking. Big bodied and dynamic.
- Maintains Dusty will either stay or retire and believes Ox was outright lying or just regurgitating what other journalists have said.
- Still believes Baker will stay even though the popular belief is that he will leave. He even double checked with his sauce and they are still firm that he will stay unless something changes. The reason he hasn't signed yet is because we typically do a lot of our big business toward the end of the year.
- The need for key forward depth is evident and we are looking into it.
- (Personally hate this one) Graham might stay, was previously sure he was going but thinks Yze is trying to convince him to stay.
- Bolton and Rioli staying
- Here's the big one... I don't want to put words in his mouth but by the way he worded it, it sounds like we have more than a base level interest in LDU.
Club is cooked if any of that happens.Bit of a small trade update from Tiger71 on the Tigercast tonight.

absolutely over cookedClub is cooked if any of that happens.
Club will also trade down our pick 1 with Freo for their first 2 first rounders to get Lalor and that young forward twin kpp.absolutely over cooked
trying to convince Graham to stay - God help us all....
Bolton/baker all staying - please tige's don't miss this opportunity to move players on.
Love Tiger71
Can you imagine in a year we can absolutely set the list up for the next generation of success, we are wanting to keep everyone?
Club is cooked if any of that happens.
I agree with the prevailing sentiment. I've always maintained that Baker must be traded. Right now is the peak of his value with the added bonus of two clubs likely going to be in a bidding war.absolutely over cooked

There is no bidding war !I agree with the prevailing sentiment. I've always maintained that Baker must be traded. Right now is the peak of his value with the added bonus of two clubs likely going to be in a bidding war.

Club is in its sliding doors moment. Keep everyone more of the same list being overrated or maximise our draft position and set ourselves up for the future.It’s so obvious.
I will be appalled if Blair is overrating our list.
We also have to make up for that future first we gave up for Hopper. We could have had Curtin or Caddy. It's quite the miss hit, so this year's trade outs have to compensate for that bad decision.
after that GC game i reckon Dimma will want some leadership at HB to push players forward. Dimma needed to go down himself and do it.
Expect an offer for D Rioli

It’s not a bidding war where we get the best picks. Baker will choose his club and that club will get the deal done.
If he’s traded it’ll be pick 12-16. Could be Corey Ellis, Ben Lennon, Lachie O’Brien or some other useless spud. Could also be Cripps or Butters. So don’t think for a second not trading one of our best players who is only 26yo is somehow gonna be some form of major problem for our future.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again … there’s a reason teams don’t proactively trade out quality players…. ever.
Here’s why …. look at the percentage of players that reach each game milestone:
50-games: 31%. Yes, less than one in three players get to 50.
100: 18%
150: 9.1%
200: 4.5%
250: 1.9%
300: 0.67%
The average number of games played by a draftee from 11-20 is 118. The average number of Brownlow votes is 16.6.
For picks 11-20, only 38% play 140+ games. 47% do NOT get to 80-games. The average number of years taken to reach 50-games is 5-years.
Average number of picks needed between 11-20 to get an AA player is 5.7.
Average number of picks between 11-20 to get someone who plays under 10-games is 6.3.
So with a pick between 11-20 for Baker we are about the same odds of getting a sub 10-game player as we are someone who makes an AA team in their career. In average, we’d need 6 x picks between 11-20 to get 1 x AA player.
This is why quality players are not proactively traded out.
Now I’m of the opinion losing Baker for a quality pick is not a bad result. And retaining him is not a bad result either. But I’m more supportive of trading Rioli (if he wants to leave) who’s 15-months older, and someone we’d be more likely to get big overs in a trade as he’s contracted and GC have huge draft assets. For Baker we will get relative market value.

Will ‘star’ this and come back to it at the end of the trade period. I have a feeling there will be a few crosses next to itBit of a small trade update from Tiger71 on the Tigercast tonight.
