Yeah but the clincher is we've told him the $100m PRO refurb is off and we're going to train at Bendigo.
 
agree, and in fairness so do their reasonable supporters.
If we were in their shoes we'd be begging our club to go after Bolton.
Bolton is a great player when the side is up & running.
Imagine him at the feet of Amiss & Treacy.
4 teen picks worth a Premiership?
How many flags do Freo have?
 
If we did get pick 1, what would everyone want to do with it?

Trade it (split picks or players) or keep it?
And if we keep it, what sort of player do you want, best talent or a certain position?

Just curious.

trade it for harley reid
 
No, I'm saying if we get pick 8 just take Allan. Don't give up an extra pick just because 3 is a 'better' pick.

Unless the CFL stop us like they did when Chris Dudd wanted out of West Coast.

We offered the better deal but told us to let him to go Blooze with the brown paper bags!!!
Chris Judd told us to GAGF. Never wanted to play for us. Thank Christ he did, we would have given away Cotch and Rance.

You would let him go for picks likely to end up at 13, 16, 20? I would want more or keep him, he is a brilliant player.

So many more elements to a trade we can do then previous examples like Tim Kelly and Cameron who cost a fortune in a trade with both out of contract. We could pay 500k of Bolton salary which is the equivalent of a first round pick, we could exchange later picks that we have plenty of and will become useless to us if for arguments sake we lost all three of Bolton, Baker and Rioli.

Four first rounders should be the target and anything less he can remain with us.

We offered them Cotchin & Rance for Judd....
I think we got lucky there tbh..
 
Unpopular opinion

Smillie may end up better than last years number 1 pick

Stuff Harley Reid , keep pick 1
That will be a very unpopular opinion until he's wearing y&b and then people will agree 😆
 
Hopefully that dumb turd Laura doesn't mess with the draft this year. If so we'll pick up a few first rounders from the blooze and bears.

With that we can easily get an elite midfielder and hopefully a gun KPF
 
When Cameron was traded he was a 2 time AA, a Coleman Medal winner, 9 time club leading goal kicker, a B&F winner, AFLPA best first year player winner and AFLCA best young player winner & proven KPF who had kicked 427 goals from 171 games. He was always going to attract a high price given that record and the fact that GWS were quite happy to match Geelongs bid, so they had to pay overs to get him across.

Now compare that to Bolton's achievements thus far: 2 x premiership winner, 1 x AA, a 3rd and 3 x 4th place in B&F with 155 goals from 128 games. There is no way anyone can suggest legitimately that Bolton is worth 4 R1 picks, 3 would be a great deal and I wouldn't be the least bit surprised to see us get just 2 R1 picks for Bolton.

Sure he is damaging when he is up and about, but when he isn't on, then he can look plain ordinary and you don't pay premium value for players like that.
I would suggest the Kelly trade is a better comparison with a hypothetical Shai trade.

Eagles really coughed up the picks.
