Mega Thread Trade Targets 2014

[Jatz]

Gives us a solid year to check out the Bunnings Warehouse that is GWS.

That's Dangerfields coin I think...

 

[Mr_Plow]

Turning into essendon, watch out in the future

Thanks for the warning.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

24 players have found new homes through free agency or trades so far. The action is not as quiet as people think it is. Some multiple movements in some of these deals.

 

[Banga19]

We can just go and get that other Carlton supporting Giant in Treloar.

Yep. Ultimately, gun mids are more likely to win you a flag. Develop our own KPP now we've got a good young crop, chase a couple of mids.

 

[zeeCFC]

I say we all keep an eye on free agents next year. I think if Sloane puts off talks he's ours.

We'll not have to give up any picks in this scenario.

Jeff Garlett and Sauce Jacobs send their regards.

Pavlich and Daniel Kerr to blues, done. Expect announcement in the next hour.

Is there anybody outside of the Dogs that thinks Jones is worth #28? Certainly not the trade radio hosts.

You might want to turn your gaze inwards.

Don't forget Ryan O'Keefe.

Why, have you guys hired Stephen Dank?

They're smoking something down at the kennel. Heaven forbid it's something Dank gave them.

so if we gave you pick 47 for watson, you guys would be angry ?

 

[Bluejob]

Well that's Hallahan to GCS.

GCS are much better at this then GWS.

 

[HBF]

Well that's Hallahan to GCS.

GCS are much better at this then GWS.

Given the choice, most people would prefer to live on the Gold Coast rather than Western Sydney.

That's probably about his worth.

You know how there are players that are widely regarded guns but you just don't see it ... That is Sloane for me. I'm missing something.

let's haggle, we will do that deal for pick 70

 

[Sector 7G]

Geelong picked up Rhys Stanley from St.Kilda for pick 26.Clearly our recruiting staff were asleep as we could have and should have been in the thick of these negotiations and could have traded pick 19 for him. He is perfect. Big marking mobile and will get excellent service from the midfield. Jones seems to be one of these players who will tease us. Tutt seems to be a like for like swap for Garlett although Garlett has the goals on the board. We haven't handled Robinson very well either. Looks as though we will lose him for nothing and I would surprised if a club did not snap him up in the draft.

Last time I saw Stanley play he had 4 goals kicked on him in a half before being shifted forward. If Watson had a game like that he would have been seen in the ones for at least 10 weeks. If he hadn't one the sprint no-one would know who he was.

Watson was pick 18 - Jones 32

Good chance you can have him next year for free, why pay?

Same same with Jones.

At least we have a future !!

 

[AndyLucimitis]

Hope we hold on to pick 19. We have used previous picks in this region brilliantly over the years.

Hopefully we can get another Grigg, Hampson, Watson or Bootsma with it !!

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

s

so if we gave you pick 47 for watson, you guys would be angry ?

I wouldn't be. The value is probably fair given how long he has taken to come on as a former #18.

Watson could have a new lease of life as a forward and that would be interesting to see, but he can't break into the senior side consistently and has not come on as fast as he could have.

The point is that the market value is different to the supporter's emotional value. Suggesting we are the ones being unreasonable for not meeting your emotional value or your investment value is silly as neutrals agree our 3rd rounder is closer to the mark than our 2nd rounder.

 

[Bluejob]

Yes, very much so. Western Sydney has zero redeeming factors.

Most GWS players don't even live out west.

I haven't been keeping up...
Was 28 even considered?
I would have thought just take it to PSD, 46 could still get us a decent player - we need all the picks we can get.
