Very wishful...I hope we keep it simple, keep our picks and get a couple extra. New kids will give supporters hope.

Sheldon denied the Saints part of that trade so yeah wishful thinking but according to the Hawks a club has offered an early second round pick for Everitt and it's not Sydney. I would be sniffing around that trade if true.

Polak's preference is Punt Road (Herald-Sun)

Tarrant wants to join Eagles
10 October 2006   Herald-Sun
Rebecca Williams and Scott Gullan

CHRIS Tarrant wants to go to West Coast even though cross-town rival Fremantle is leading the race for his services.

While Collingwood is open to offers from anyone for its mercurial forward, Tarrant is adamant the reigning premier is his preferred destination.

Fremantle could use defender Graham Polak to try and lure Tarrant with a three-way deal involving Richmond and Collingwood and an exchange of first-round draft picks.

Polak has walked out on the Dockers and stated his preference is to go to Punt Rd with Carlton his second option.


Swann said the Magpies had not yet discussed what they would be asking for in return for Tarrant, but said the offer would have to be "pretty good".

"You put a position on a table and from a club pursuing Chris, they don't want to give you much and from our point of view we expect that a guy who's obviously contracted and an All-Australian footballer that they don't grow on trees," he said. "We're not adverse to players and picks and we'll just see how that goes."

Ok, now the bargaining chips are well and truly in Millers pocket.  Polak can walk into the PSD now, to Carlton for nothing, or Freo can get something out of the deal for Polak by trading him to Richmond.

How does Krak and pick 26 sound for Polak and pick 31?

Tigers plan ahead

RICHMOND goalsneak Andrew Krakouer is available as the Tigers try to find room in their salary cap to make a play for Docker Graham Polak.

I wouldn't have Polak worth Krak and a exchange of picks. One or the other IMHO. Polak may have greater potential worth because he's a tall but he's a fringe player in his 5th year at Freo, whereas Krak, although inconsistent, plays in our best 22.

I think Polak maybe alright for us, most doubted the simmonds trade but troy has fired up beautifully for plough, maybe plough can get Polak right and he can do what simmonds has done. Krak for Polak is fine for mine.
I'm hoping you're right Ramps. I had more confidence in Simmo than I do in Polak. However in saying that, if anyone is capable or curbing Polak's extra-curricular activities and turing him into a consistent performer, Plough is.  :pray Also, Melbourne is a far more exciting city than Fremantle .  :lol

SEN just said Polak has spoken to Carlton. Us and them (excuse the PF pun tiga lol) are his two preferences. The Blues may try to convince Polak to just wait for the PSD and they'll promise to pick him up.

We haven't come up with a player to trade to Freo for Polak. We've asked them to pick a name and then we'll talk about it.

A silly rumour on the net is the Saints have offered pick 9 for Polak.

Further to this SEN said Cogs won't be traded at all and they don't believe Krak will be traded to Freo as Krak is not what Freo needs.

Just a reminder folks about posting rumours etc....after having to edit a couple of posts on this thread ....

that from a legal stand  point people need to be careful not to mention or allude to players in regards to unsubstanciated rumours. It can and will get OER in strife.

Thanks guys & gals

Dockers want a second round pick for Polak  ::) so Miller has said forget it.

Richmond has conceded it will struggle to secure Fremantle key position player Graham Polak during AFL trade week with the Tigers not willing to sacrifice their youth policy by surrendering draft picks.

"We are building towards something here and we don't want to lose any draft choices," Miller said.

The Dockers are likely to demand at least a second round draft pick for Polak, given that at 22 and with 73 games behind him he is coming into the peak years of his career.

well done miller! hang tough.
if they want to trade it has to be 4 a player not a 1st or 2nd rnd pick.
freos speal that polak was a 4th pick is bs, yes he was, but he isnt now! he may well become a superstar, but he isnt at the moment, u dont trade based on potential, u trade on the value of player at th ecurrent moment. at right now polak cant get a game so he is no pick 4
