Trade Rumours 2024

Ken has lost the plot

Well his list manager has. Completely. They’re hoping a few guns can wall paper over a bunch of average players. That don’t work. I’ve seen it tried many times.

Lukosius is a handy player, even though he is a bit timid. Has plenty of talent

Jack Watts mk 2.

Is Josh Schache mk3?

I?d say it?s a win-win trade in the end. I?d say we are the only club that hasn?t got to exploit them senselessly though.

Yes you put it much better than me.

Yes you put it much better than me.

What shits me is how this feeder club has strengthened already strong clubs:

Rich: Prestia, Lynch, Caddy
Port: Dixon, todays trades
Geel: Bowes/7, Ablett Jr, Caddy
Coll: Houston indirectly,
Carl: Saad, Martin, Hollands

Plus Jaeger, May, Rankine, etc

Power have come to their senses.

Thankfully.

Pies would have been falling over themselves to get that signed off

Fancy a trade spruiked on trade radio being big Vic biased!

I'm glad it's not going through.

How do we get Baz and Geelong involved in this?

Is there anyway we could get involved - love to have him in the backline

No. Our best offer right now is 35 & F1. Not even close.

Everything (trades, pick trades) hinges on Geelong.

It actually also hinges on Power.

Rightly or wrongly is holding our also limits our ability to do anything and it has been that way for a number of years now.

This is the problem he faces. Take an earlier poor offer and try to deal. Or wait and get a better deal, which then limits him to pick trading. He’s a bit in a no win situation. Clubs are deliberately trying to exploit us by running the clock out to ramp up the pressure on Sam. He’s damned if he does or doesn’t. Unless there’s a guaranteed great trade for a lesser trade, I back him to wait it out for better returns on players.

Reports Eagles are giving up pick THREE for Carlton's 12, 14 and Owies.

Somebody please explain that to me!!!

I wish I could. It’s ****ing insanity.

I would think that the Eagles think the draft is pretty even in the top 15 or so and want someone who they reckon will be there at 12.
14 goes for Baker and Owies comes in so they get some senior talent in as well.

Maybe they're keen on local kid Bo Allan and think he will be there anyway.
