Early Trade Rumours 2023

[Scraggers]

Why set your sights so low, let's go after Mark Bolton.

Never been a fan of his music ... although his 1996 Christmas Album was pretty good.

Some talk that we are offering pick 10, 17 and a future first for pick 4. I can't believe we would be stupid enough to do that.

That would be something back surely.... And don't call me Shirley!

Index points 10 and 17 alone are more than 4.

Talk. From who? I can’t endorse that, not even close. Not that I need to.

Any links on that one? Perhaps for pick 1?

That might be a good idea.

Ralphy:

THE Western Bulldogs will step up their chase for a back-up ruckman as they assess Brisbane forward Kai Lohmann's willingness to return to Victoria after only two seasons at the Lions.

Lohmann's season is over after breaking his collarbone in the VFL with the No. 20 draft pick from the 2021 draft still considering his future.

The Dogs would be interested in him joining them although their fractious trade negotiations with Brisbane over Josh Dunkley might prove a complicating factor.

Tim English will again lead the ruck next year with Sam Darcy and Rory Lobb as back-up so the Dogs are still considering whether they need a fourth ruck given Darcy has proved injury-prone.

The Dogs might be prepared to offer picks 10, 17 and a future first-rounder to secure the No. 4 overall selection from Gold Coast.

They are in the box seat, with GWS having cooled on a bid to get up the order to pick 4 given their own first-rounder has now blown out to at least 14.

Ralphy has been all over this, but this is the first time the F1 has been attached.

I don’t like it.

I don?t like it.

Stupidity. 3 1sts for pick 4?

Twomey also mentioned it. Madness. Gold Coast won't even use the pick.

Stupidity. 3 1sts for pick 4?

Yep. Unless there’s a damn good player coming our way it looks way overs to me. WAY.

[GVGjr]

There is no way that should happen.

[chef]

Wow. That would be madness, selling the farm for some magic beans.

This reads as 100% speculation with zero basis behind it. Twomey was also speculating when he said the same. Neither of these two are known for getting any inside information relating to trades. If someone like Morris started reporting it, then I might be worried

It was a cow wasn't it?

Anyway the magic beans worked out pretty well for everyone but the giant. With the Giants pulling out maybe it's sn omen?

Was said last week by Cal, Ralph just ripped it from him. We would need a high pick back or a good player to be coming our way to do that one.
