How come?

 

[Tzatziki_Man]

We do our best work with later picks. We'll probably get some later picks back aswell.

Also, if we're looking to never bottom out, we will need to bundle later picks for genuine Pick 1, 2 or 3 Talent.

Hopper and Taranto are Picks 7 and 2, proven stars, mucked around by Cameron.

We haven't seen a Pick 1-7 since Conca in 2011 was Pick 6

 

[captain cotch 9]

I wonder what numbers they will wear?
TT-14 or 10
Hopper- 10 or 22

GWS, Tigers agree on Taranto deal ahead of trade period start

A deal to send Tim Taranto to the Tigers has been agreed and is due to be formalised early when trading begins on Monday.

Ahh I remember the early minutes of this thread when Morro was melting at this thread being a jinx

Never in doubt

I reckon it'll be...

Hopper - 13
Taranto - 14

Sonsie - 10

 

[Royce Hafey]

How come?

Offer them Aarts, Castagna and Soldo for Hopper. How can they refuse four premierships! Plus a role player, in Aarts. That's always been the problem with the orange Ferrari, not enough role players.

 

[Coach_Required]

Reckon we will definitely get GWS picks 40 and 58 back if we are trading out 12 & 19 for Taranto and possibly 30 and Soldo or next years 1st round & 30 for Hopper.

Means GWS will have picks 3, 12,19, 21 & 30 this year, they don't need their later picks.

I was literally puckering over it.

It’s still not done campaigner

 

[Rioli2Rioli]

What do we give for Hopper?

What ever we have left F1+#30 with some later picks coming back depending on what players might be included going back to GWS

If they don want any of our expendable players then F1+30 will have o be the deal
cant squeeze blood from a stone and GWS know thats all we have left

They will be trading #40 for Toby Bedford unless Melbourne push a hard deal and demand better

What a crap assessment IMO - lot's of holes in it...

Age - FFS, anyone see this years premiers age profile?
Need to bring in youth - most teams bring in 1 or 2 top 30 picks per year so 3 or 4 over two years - FFS we brought in 5 top 30's just last season! + Bauer - All showing signs of proper development over their first year!
Prestia not an A grader - the dude was an injury away from finishing in the top 10 of the Brownlow FFS

& the best of all, Castagna and Aarts as B graders...

I reckon we get a laugh out of Buckenara's assessment every year. I think he just copies and pastes most of the shit he writes anyway

 

[Calcium Man]

$3.2 mill for JHF over 5 years… **** we’re getting Taranto and Hopper cheap.

 

[T4P]

So true

Picks 1-3
Cotchin, Martin, Deledio

Picks 4 - 20
Ben Lennon, Corey Ellis, Reece Conca, Tyrone Vickery, JON, Richard Tambling, Ben Griffiths, Dean Polo, Danny Meyer, Adam Pattison, Jack Higgins, Riley Collier Dawkins, Brandon Ellis

And of course the two that genuinely worked out Jack Riewoldt and Alex Rance

Picks 1, 2 & 3 just have a much better strike rate

You forgot floss

 

[blaisee]

These blokes aren't gunna be cheap, in the end we WGAF if they end up as good as Prestia, who knows they might even be better, both of them, they may be great.

Its actually $3 mil over 4 years as his 2023 will still be on 1st year salary

The best part about Whopper & Tarantino is they are still young and have 7-8 years of football as most top mids play until 32-33
They are both really professional about their football and their preparation and great character with no off field issues their entire careers

We will have 2 extremely good footballers at our club that play in a position we were severely lacking
Richmond is again a genuine premiership chance

Great player. Loved him, but seems to have lost the plot. Maybe some of the ordinary teams are a bit hard to make judgements on, but how do you get employed to do this when you can’t even keep track of the best team of the last five years?

I’d be embarrassed to put such ill informed, lazy content out there.

2nd or two back would be nice.

Someone make a thread for each player

 

[4tune8]

They will be trading #40 for Toby Bedford unless Melbourne push a hard deal and demand better

They'll also have picks coming in for Hill and Bruhn...........
