It's that time of the year when all sorts of trade rumours and scuttlebutt will be flying around.
So far ...
A number of Lions are rumoured to be leaving - Billy Longer, Sam Docherty, Jared Polec (back home to SA). Elliot Yeo (back home to WA) and Karnezis (back home to Vic).
Dale Thomas to Carlton.
A number of Vic clubs chasing young Giant Taylor Adams.
Stuart Crameri to the Western Bulldogs (Shaun Higgins --> Essendon?)
Swan forward Jesse White on the Saints' radar.
-
Dal Santo to n0rf. Nick Riewoldt and Brayshaw were talking about the today's HUN article this arvo (I think it was titled Get Nick or something) and Brayshaw pretty much said "we need outsid runners like they [Saints] need key backs." Delaney for Dal Santo as the crux of the deal. So with Dal Santo on top of Pertrie, Harvey and whatever other geriatric they have over there, they either think they can win a flag shortly or they're building a retirement home.
I hope they do go for Dal Santo so they can tumble back to the bottom of the ladder in 2-3 years when the entire top end of their list retires.
-
Think I heard Collingwood are making a play for Betts? And heard Swan to GWS for pick 1
-
For pick 1 my ass surely not. He'll be 30 next year. Surely wont be a top-tier player for more than another two years max you'd think...

Adelaide after Betts and have offered him a big deal

Rucci on SEN seems to think Betts to Adelaide is a done deal.
Bruce from GWS to the Saints sounds a done deal as well.

Out-of-contract Lion Brent Staker is due to meet Lions' officials to discuss a tabled offer on Friday but he reportedly spent Thursday at Carlton inspecting the Blues' Princes Park facilities.

with the surplus of quality defenders that couldn't crack it for a game in our dream team defence, wouldn't surprise me at all if we could craft a deal featuring any 1 of griff, batch or astbury + nahas for patton. Love to see someone top that :shh...always rememeber theres no shame in failing to break into a team that wins 15 games, these blokes would be a walk up to a team that won 1 game, :clapping

According to an Eagles fan on the BF main board:

WoW he kicked 30 goals this season, nahas kicked 30 for us 2 years in a row and couldn't get a game :shh...and gets rubbished as not worthy trade material

So they want to trade us pick 6, Gaff, as well as their second and third round picks for Conca and Martin?
No deal IMO. Players with currency like that need to be traded for players that we actually need EG Josh Kennedy/Jack Darling. Or Naitanui.

wouldn't take that deal

as if that would be anything other than a far fetched out of the clacker proposition put together by a wc fan...same as us offering pick R2/3 + shane Edwards for nicnat and selwood
-
OK lets start the ball rolling, we want Adams and possibly Longer what or who do we trade to get the deal done?
No dumb deals please, genuine suggestions' only.
e.g. Houli for Adams. (Quality for Quality)
-
Conca to Eagles
Eagles first Pick to Tigers
Tigers on trade for Adams
We gain Adams and keep our first pick
-
I ubderstand the whole quality for quality arguement, but considering we finished half a game outside the top 4, I dont think trading a top 10 player (houli) for Adams. Unless Adams can be guaranteed a top 5 player by year 2 - I dont see how it helps our tilt for a premiership.
I get the feeling that a direct swap to GWS for Adams will be unlikely. GWS want experience and there would be very few players that we would be willing to trade. Maybe Foley. But its a small negotiation frame as far I am concerned, will have to require a third club.
-
Would be disappointing to lose Conca.
If that happens, we should take Pick 6 and on trade our Pick 11 for Taylor Adams.
Gain:
Pick 6 & Adams
Lose:
Conca (Pick 6 in 2010) & Pick 11
With that pick we draft best contested midfielder.

yep, as someone else has mentioned on this site, Essendon will want to trade into the draft and have the type of surplus players that GWS may be interested in ie Bellchambers, Ryder. Say our pick to GWS adams to us, our pick onto Essendon and bellchambers to GWS.

:banghead :banghead :banghead Why would we on trade Bellchambers for Adams. Would be absolutely unforgivable to not take Bellchambers instead of Adams if we had the choice
-
Eddie Betts will renew talks with Carlton this week over whether he stays with the Blues or pursues significant offers from Adelaide and North Melbourne.
The Blues will also consider Chris Yarran's future, with West Coast understood to be interested in securing the former West Australian running player.
Carlton is believed to be interested in North Melbourne's key defender Luke Delaney, who has been starved of opportunities at Arden Street behind Scott Thompson and Nathan Grima.

Nick Duigan, Jeremy Laidler, Shaun Hampson and David Ellard will be delisted or traded, with no decision made on the future of Heath Scotland.
Sydney’s Jesse White and Essendon’s Scott Gumbleton will also be strongly considered by the Blues, with Brisbane forward Brent Staker another potential target.
Dale Thomas will find his way to Carlton barring a late surge of interest from cashed-up rivals including Hawthorn. The Pies have all but conceded they will be without Thomas next year given five-season offers for the restricted free agent which could go as high as $700,000.

Bc we're getting Ryder :shh
In all seriousness, it comes down to what $$$ we can offer bellchambers compared to GWS and if they legitimately want him, we won't be able to compete in terms of offers

We might be trumped by the Pies though with the same senerio.Adams apparently is visiting the Westpac centre on Thursday.Pies will have 2 picks(10 & 11..Compo pick for Thomas) ahead of ours.

St Kilda is chasing Bomber David Myers.
Essendon has re-signed ruckman Tom Bellchambers.
The Bombers now seem long odds to match a pitch for Nick Dal Santo given their tight salary cap and his salary demands. It means North Melbourne remains firmly in the box seat to lure Dal Santo.

Hawthorn has removed its contract offer to Lance Franklin from the negotiating table and begun to envisage a future without its champion forward.
Fairfax Media understands the most recent offer to Franklin was removed at the end of July after the player failed to respond to a club-imposed deadline. While Hawthorn holds some hope that Franklin will stay, any potential deal could be reduced from that withdrawn some seven weeks ago.
With Greater Western Sydney claiming it has been equally frustrated by Franklin's refusal to make a decision until the end of the season, neither club appears any wiser regarding Franklin's plans. The Giants are pushing Franklin's management for an answer as it sizes up a number of targets, including Dustin Martin and Sam Fisher.
GWS' five-year offer was reportedly increased to six years, although the Giants have refused to speculate publicly on a deal reportedly worth about $1.3 million annually before third-party agreements.

The AFL website has a page on trade whispers:
http://www.afl.com.au/news/2013-09-18/aflcomaus-trade-whispers
BRISBANE:
Luke McGuane and Swan Jesse White have been pursued before and will be again. Tigers midfielder Dustin Martin has also been linked to the Lions, but they'd want to be careful after the Brendan Fevola trade in 2009 went spectacularly wrong and set them back a couple of years.
COLLINGWOOD:
while Richmond free agent Matt White should be on their radar.
RICHMOND
Plenty of intrigue surrounds just what is going to become of Dustin Martin after the tough midfielder told the Tigers he would be considering rival offers. Talks between Martin's management and the Tigers have broken down with the Martin party wanting more than the club is willing to offer. What happens now? Well, the Tigers could try and reach a deal with a club – Melbourne and Greater Western Sydney have been reported to be interested, with the Demons holding a very tradeable draft pick No.2 – so they don't lose him for nothing. Otherwise, Martin could walk out and whack a price on his head so he can get to the club he wants to be at or nominate for the pre-season draft where the Giants have the first selection. Or, he could remain in yellow and black next year if all this amounts to nothing. Then there's Reece Conca, who remains out of contract with Fremantle interested in the West Australian midfielder. The Tigers need a ruckman and another defender wouldn't hurt, but midfield stocks will become more important if Martin and Conca leave, given Shane Tuck has already retired. - Jennifer Phelan

Funnily enough I rate Sinclair better from the little I've seen of both.
-
after that draft fine eyes said that Lycett would have been taken if available. we missed him by one.
-
I suspect WC would avoid wanting to trade pick no 8.... Either lycett or gaff come into play as direct swaps. Lycett would need r2 thrown in or a trade up of ours..to sweeten the deal as he has done stuff all until last month of season where he looked good

You can still trade contracted players can't you? (Although I agree he won't be going anywhere just double checking)

cheers WP
i find it strange we would do that to be honest
He wasnt exactly going anywhere and would've been real handy right about now in dealings with GWS.
-
Contracted players are totally tradable
If their contracts aren't too $$$ it is actually better to trade a contracted player than an uncontracted one – you get better value at the trade table because there is no threat of the player going into the draft
Like all trades, the player has to agree
-
cheers WP

True but the re-signed him mid year when he was in reasonable form, reckon his last 6 or so weeks were average, which was after the contract extension.
Actually think he ran out of "puff" fitness wise as the year went on which didn't help. But considering how far back he was coming from missing nearly 12 months of footy it isnt a great surprise either
-
Foley will be back to his best next year you'd think.
And his best is very good.
Just out of touch from some serious injuries.
-

That's been the case for 5 years. How did he get a 3 year deal? That's Graig Cameron type stuff. His form hasn't warranted a 3 year deal since 07/08.
-
Had Lycett in my Dream Team for the second half of the year and the kid can play. 81 hit outs in 7 games isn't too shabby playing with Nic Nat and Cox.

I agree. I'd have left him until the end of the year then offered him 1-2. Surprised me.

Pricked the Bombers interest?
Would be a sharp addition :thumbsup
What an injection of talent to the middle.
Would add to their midfield chemistry.

The Tigers are also interested in securing a back-up ruckman for Ivan Maric.

Talking about stating the obvious ;D
Just a question to fellow OERites - any interest in Jeremy Laidler? Strong body defender?
really like him as a player.
have stated on other sites geet him down to the club have a good look at him make sure the knee is right make sure his agility and pace will get back to where it was. if he ticks these boxes theres every chance he will get back to 2011 form. if he can back to his best hes an automatic upgrade on grimes.
his history is interesting in the fact he found it hard to get a game at geelong. taylor scarlett harley milburn lonergan mackie all kept him out. he played damn good footy in the magoos and just needed a chance to plat at the top level.
he got that chance in 2011 and he absolutely killed it. unfortunately for him injury struck early 2012 and hes struggled since.
with that as background id be more than happy for us to have a good look at him. you just have to be impressed with what he produced in 2011.

Good guy Nick del Santo .. he aint no prick.. :gotigers
-
does anyone know Foley's contract status?
Hope he is part of negotiations with GWS.
the time has come while he has value
Re-signed mid year daniel for 3 years
Think itis fair to say he isn't going anywhere
cant see how the club can give Foley 3 years. what were they thinking. He got better treatment than Tuck who gave 100% & we got more out of him. l want to see the end of Foley & Shane Edwards
here here
RFC are so blind they can't see those 2 should be on the trade table while they have value
Edwards can play 1 position and even that is debatable
Even if Dusty stays I would offer he and our first pick for Adams
That will trump the pies

You wouldn't expect a player to be given a juicy three year deal and then get overlooked for the finals in favor of a hack rookie discard from melbourne who'd be on minimum wage ? Very strange indeed

THE tall-forward landscape for the upcoming trade frenzy will become clearer next week.
Essendon pair Stewart Crameri and Scott Gumbleton along with Sydney’s Jesse White are all linked together with the decision by one to impact what happens to the rest.
Crameri is on holidays and scheduled to return home to Melbourne next week where he will decide whether to remain a Bomber or take up a four-year $1.8 million offer from the Western Bulldogs.
While Essendon is getting more confident about keeping him it is still believed to be a 50/50 call.
Should he stay at Windy Hill, the Bulldogs would turn their attention to Gumbleton who they went very close to securing last year. Fremantle have also expressed interest in the former Western Australian.
Another in the sights of several clubs is the 196cm White who was almost traded to Adelaide last year as part of the Kurt Tippett deal.
He is out-of-contract and almost certain to be playing elsewhere next year given the Swans stockpile of talls with Tippett and young gun Sam Reid.
All three players are managed by leading agent Paul Connors.

I'm expecting Mr Tigra to go all jazz hands when he reads about Jesse White. God help us
-

I actually think Jesse White may be a good fit for the filth with Cloke playing CHF and Jesse playing deep in the f50.
If he went to a club like doggies I could see him being exposed, He is currently a good player among premiership players and high expectations/ demands especially playing for his spot every week given their surplus of talls.
But Would Jesse White be able to deliver consistently given he would receive the best defender possibly two?
-
Reflecting more on this ,if it was me I would sit tight on the talls.2014 should and I repeat should be the year we get significant improvement from Ty,Todd,Griff,Astbury,and more improvement from the Bean.
if this happens we should be fine,if it doesn't then lets go into the market place.

Carlton, Essendon, the Western Bulldogs and North Melbourne have met with Brisbane rebounding defender Sam Docherty, who is likely to tell the Lions he wants out this week.
Billy Longer met with Hawthorn this week and with the 20-year-old keen to get to the Hawks that deal is likely to get done.
Brisbane's Brent Staker is linked to Carlton and fellow Lion Patrick Karnezis likely heading to Collingwood.

I used to love trade week. Go on a forum make up some identity and make up rumours as I went along. Watching and reading as the desperates got off on the stupidest rumours ever. Some were good, some ok and some not so good some were outrageously funny like Jimmy Boogie thread that went for days on end at another site that shall remain nameless. I miss those days but I cant be stuffed doing that poo these days. Which one you blokes is Tigers 71. He is doing a great job not as good as the idiots on bomberblitz when the scandal was on but good nevertheless. Well done to all. :gotigers

Would hate to lose Whitey. Tries hard. Important leg speed. Much improved this year.
Solid B Grader. Would rather lose Petterd.

Yep, thought Bombres were the ones where there was a player mutiny.

True. Anthony is an amazing possession accumulator but has poor disposal and that is why he was not being picked for the seniors.

Ok, so I have been talking with my co-worker. His son plays VFL and is friends with some AFL players.
There is just one HUGE problem with the goss he gives me. The players he talks about are all made up!
He is deadly serious too, every time I see him, he tells me about them. I have a feeling he may be getting names terribly mixed up, but he mentions the same names all the time.
So anyway, today he tells me some top secret goss, he says Richmond might get a good player in the trade period, I say 'Adams', he says no, 'Alex Conti'. :huh
I must have given him a look, because he says 'you know Alex Conti, from Freo, he's playing this weekend'. :huh
This is the same Alex Conti that allegedly played against us at the MCG last season in the wet and kicked 3 goals. :huh
He is a free agent (I think he means out of contract) and is keen to come back to Victoria. Collingwood are very interested in him as well.
But it doesn't end there, because we're also looking at a player from North Melbourne, Taylor Petrenko.... :huh
He is a regular senior player and hurt his achilles late in the season. He has a rugby background and Cronulla are also trying to lure him back to rugby.
Norf are paying him $220k, and we've offered $250k.
So what should we trade for these fictional players? Jim Boogie for Conti and Ema Nymton for Petrenko? Would that be enough to get the deal done?
-
Gold :lol
-
Gerks should ask him if he knows Greg White?
Boogie btw is untouchable. Literally. 8)

Unofficial news at the moment that Nick Dal Santo has nominated North Melbourne as his club of choice.

Would rather Lycett from West Coast given Nic Nat and Coxy have a mortgage in the ruck there.
Bill James played his one and only game in our 1920 Premiership, went hunting in the off season was shot in the foot and never played again until now.... Richmond are looking to put him in a cryogenic lab and have him ready for action in 2015 well before the centenary of his first game. What a coup. Get it done Tigers. ;D

According to Barrett on the Sunday Footy Show:
* North's leadership group met with Dal Santo during the week.
* All of Geelong's senior players bar Enright are out of contract.
* GWS and Melbourne are willing to trade their respective first picks (#1 & #2). Barrett mentioned something about Sylvia too.

@TomBrowne7 - "Trade news hotting up, can confirm the #giants will offer Fremantle the coveted number one draft pick for nat fyfe"

I laugh at the last bit because:
a) Melbourne don't need another KPF and it would be lolworthy for them to neglect the midfield again.
b) Sylvia is a FA and doesn't need to be traded.

I didn't think Pods done much this year so I'm not that surprised about him being delisted or retiring. They will need Hawkins to be back fully fit next year to help develop a second tall though.

Pods surprises me a little. He only kicked 33 goals this year but he also spent some chunks of time in the Def50.
Seems like they're taking a youth policy now and culling some old blokes. They've got lots of young talent anyhow.

No, we have a list management committee made up of Richardson, Hardwick, Hartley and a couple of others (perhaps Jackson). Contrary to what people think Benny Gale is NOT on the list management committee

Thanks for the info, I guess that committee also analyses where we are going, how much we are paying, how long to offer players on their contracts, dealing with p[layers agents, where we sit on our salary cap, how much money we have in case we want to pick up a player etc.
Another question. Once a players contract is signed then that fee is fixed? ie it is fixed for the term of that contract and can only be altered if there are over riding clauses such as performance based bonuses/non performance reductions or bad boy get-out clauses?

We all talk about the "Geelong model," players staying for less money than they can get on the open market, to be apart of the next premiership. But for the player, that's only for as long as the club wants you. Chappy and now Josh Hunt with more to come apparently.
Just like every other industry, it doesn't matter how much service or sacrifice you give your employer, you are just a number.
It's sad to see your favorite players leave but why shouldn't a player look after themselves first!
Take the money a Buddy.
-
I suppose it depends on what the player rates higher.
Buddy has two premierships so yeah, why not take the money. Same as ablett. They have made their personal sacrifices and tasted team success.
But if a player is the type to always put their own self interests above the team, then it is unlikely they will contribute to too much success anyway, so it would be good riddance

-
Lol @ Collingwood fans thinking they can get pick 2 for a 28 year old who doesn't want to be at the club and that Collingwood doesn't want anymore.

The Pies got a first rounder for Dawes off Melbourne (which enabled them to get Grundy) so perhaps they are hoping the Dees will be just as stupid giving up another first rounder for another Pie reject.

Im on my phone so I cant link the article but apparently Dylan Shiels wants out at GWS and wants to go to a Melbourne club. This is the same guy who is dating chocos daughter
-
Yep just read on twitter that Shiels has asked to be traded back to Melbourne.
Adams and Shiels, any chance we can get both??
-
It was a bad day all round for the Giants, who not only lost out on Franklin but are understood to have been told by rising star midfielder Dylan Shiel that he wants to be traded to a Victorian club.
Shiel, 20, who finished fourth to Jeremy Cameron in this year's best-and-fairest award, is understood to have told the Giants he wants to return home after 33 games in two years.
He is the third GWS youngster so far to want out, following Josh Bruce, who will join St Kilda, and Taylor Adams, who is also poised to return to Victoria.

Throw the kitchen sink to get both Adams and Shiel IMHO.

Throw the kitchen sink to get both Adams and Shiel IMHO.
A mate at work said to me that he had heard that the Blues have offered/ will offer Hampson and Robinson for both Shiels and Adams. If that were true, and GWS were considering it, I doubt it would be hard to trump.
I think it comes down to want versus need. Do we really need one or both Adams and Shiels? I would argue that we would need one, maybe not both - though we would want both. It would come down to what GWS want and need as well (obviously).
Question for those in the know, do GWS still have a larger list than all other AFL teams, and over the course of the next 1-3 needs to trim it to be inline with the lists of all other teams? Because if thats the case, I would suggest we couldn't get away with a >2 Richmond players for 2 GWS players. It would have to be even numbers (ie 2 for 2). I also don't think that a first round pick should be included forn the above reasons and that GWS want established players.
I'd vote for Foley and Griffiths/ Batchelor if that was enough - though I highly doubt it would be. Would have to tag along in another trade (the Bruce to St Kilda deal, or the Delany to St Kilda deal etc).
-
Hard to trump? you are joking right. those 2 are very average footballers.
Ramps is right throw the kitchen sink at getting both of them.
450k a peace and offer up grimes and foley/edwards and picks
be bold tigers make the move.

THIS - Dont want to lose Grimes but you have to give something to get something. Foley and Edwards are expendable especially Foley. In a perfect world they would take Foley and Edwards and 11 but they would most likely take Grimes & Edwards. Nevertheless I would still do the deal. Hartley managed to get Chaplin, he can probably find another 3rd back somewhere in 12 months.
-
Shiel is better than Adams. Is just as tough but is much quicker and has far better agility. We must have him!
Get it done Tiges! :clapping
-

He said he doubts it would be hard to trump.
Geez the Blues are dreaming if they think those two hacks could get them 2 young guns mids.

I said I doubt it would be hard to trump. Meaning it will be very easy. And on a side note, describing Hampson and Mitch Robinson as average footballers is a slight on average footballers.
I don't like offering up a starting key position backman for a midfielder in return. Considering how long it has taken us to get a solidified back line. Would do Foley and Edwards though.
-
sorry i read it incorrectly.
I dont think Edwards has much currency to be honest. His a one trick pony who cant even play midfield if his life depended on it.
Foley may, but Grimes is the one IMV who goes for me
-
Yessss :clapping let's get both now please
I bet though we'll get neither :lol
And pick up a star recruit like Megan Gale :shh

Whats even funnier is Kernehan and mick mildew complaining about the buddy deal with Sydney.firstly they are just peeed because their offer to Buddy yesterday was rejected,and secondly carlton have a cheek about championinig the otherAFL clubs,they are easily the worst offenders at offering buckets loads of cash to entice star players.eg Judd, Diesel,even going further back to Peter mc kenna

Jordon Russell (ex Carlton & C'wood) was on SEN this morning, spruiking his wares as to why he wants another chance at AFL level
Although I wouldn't take him as an AFL player what caught my attention was a commnet made about if he doesn't get an AFL gig for 2014 his "plan B" was to get into development coaching
What are people's thoughts on the RFC signing him up for our VFL side as captain and having him as a development coach as well?

On SEN they mentioned Ben McEvoy wanted out of St Kilda, we do want another ruck, but
Would we want him? He'd have to be an upgrade on our current crop of backups
what would we be able to pay?
what would St Kilda be willing to take?

Interesting quote about them not being prepared to compromise their "payment strategied" for Betts but happy to for micks petal daisy.
I wonder how the blues players feel about mick?
Guided them to 9th, halfway through the season basically blamed the list (players)for the results and then now got rid of one very popular team mate to overpay one injury plagued player from another club.

Former number 6 pick. If he is over his attitude and injury issues I'd seriously have a look at him

Yup, was going to post something the other day. I'd definitely have a look at him, good head on his shoulders now by all accounts. Was coaching and playing and led his side to the trophy this year.

Heard him interviewed on SEN and he sounded very grounded. Was playing as a captain coach in Tassie and won the GF. would be worth a late punt I would think.

And also give him a job as a development coach
A similar set up to what Geelong had this years with the Selwood who used to play for Brisbane and retired. Captain of the their VFL side and a development role

Extremely talented junior who was full of himself at Hawthorn. He was pick 6, just ahead of Selwood!!! Was thought to be better than Jack in Tassie.
Then attitude and injury ended his career.
His attitude has improved apparently but I think Dimma would have been scarred by him through his days at Hawthorn.
Again, probably an upgrade on what we have until the youngsters improve.

With Buddy going to Sydney, and with them also having Tippitt, what would people's thoughts be if we chased Sam Reid to play alongside Jack. I know he is contracted but maybe Sydney might like ease salary cap presure and would like to off load him for our first round pick??
Would that be enough?
Imagine getting him in to our forwardline as well as young Garlett and Chappy. Not to shabby!

The beauty if one or even a couple of these guys come on is- down the track we can off load whichever one we see fit, which would give us a great pick in the draft or another player we need. Just like Sydney have that option now, Reid was a second or third rounder and now Sydney could easy get an early first rounder for him. Same with Mumford. It's all about gaining and upgrading.
So Sydney could easy end up with Buddy, picks 10 and 13 (Reid, Mumford) and then their pick at 18ish. All this for two players that they have already replaced.
Not a bad way to go into a new season after finishing 3rd or 4th this year.

Sam Reid is ass
-
Brisbane's James Polkinghorne is seeking a trade if possible, New coach Justin Leppitsch is expected to speak to Polkinghorne when he returns from overseas.
There are reports that Luke Shuey is seriously considering a return back to Victoria, which comes as Melbourne declared that they WILL trade their prized No 2 pick overall, in order to bring elite talent to the club. Shuey went to school with Jack Viney at Carey Grammar, and was close with Viney's family, also growing up as Melbourne supporter.

Adelaide and Fremantle have expressed interest in Hawthorn midfielder Xavier Ellis.

Read a melbourne forum yesterday. Shuey didn't support the dees, hawks I think. Their is a big age gap between he and viney so they're not really mates, just went to same school.

FFS Mrak, Adams has his own 22 page thread so can you use it for this discussion please.
Now back onto Shane Savage? Any interest? He's young quick and strong. I'd seriously look at him if he's not too pricey. Might come cheaper than Adams also.

Yeah Savage would go ok, he's a decent player and would add some depth. What would the Hawks want for him though? I would've expected he start getting more time in the middle as some of their older players start closing the curtains.

Says who? I haven't heard anything other than that we and the wobbles are interested in him?
Don't read the paper ?
Neg. What's it say big kovski?
GWS, Pies or Cats for Adams. We aren't even in the picture because our price is so low.
I believe Adams wants more than $400K so we are definitely out. Sheils is also not moving - still contracted.

Dusty is on less than 500k and Adams wants more than 400. Geez

Someone needs to read the riot act to Adams he should psYsign on for basic wages and earn a pay rise. Players are knocking their pans out to get to punt rd and here's lord muck, who s played in as many winning games as PSY 's had hit songs and he s commanding elite wages. C'mon , who's managing this punk :shh

YOLO

So with McGuane and White off our list, can only assume that has eased some Salary Cap pressure.
Will we pick up someone in free agency now? Who is available?
Funds for Chapman
Funds for Hampson ( :huh)
Wouldn't mind looking at some of the Brisbane Lions kids wanting to leave Sam Docherty can play. Even raiding some of Sydneys fringe players. Wouldn't be paying the likes of Craig Bird or Luke Parker very much. Both very good players if we can entice them to push through a trade.

L Parker is a machine Pope don't fancy us getting him, but we could try.

Rumours that vice-captain Tom Rockliff may join the list of young guns hoping to leave the Brisbane Lions have been dismissed by the club.

He's a Victorian boy, already won a premiership medal. Not going to get much $$ with 2 players on 2.5mil a year at Sydney.
Would be on peanuts I reckon. I'd give his manager a call for sure.

Carlton and the Brisbane Lions are among the rival clubs circling Hawk Shane Savage, who is contracted until the end of 2014.
With the Hawks in desperate need of a ruckman, the Blues could offer a straight swap for Shaun Hampson, while the Lions know Billy Longer is wanted down south.

WEST Coast midfielder Luke Shuey has attracted the interest of several Melbourne-based clubs who have not yet given up trying lure him back to his home state as early as next year.
The talented Shuey, 23, has a year to run on his current contract and is believed to be warming to a possible return to Victoria.
It is understood Collingwood is one of the clubs very keen to secure Shuey.
Melbourne has also been suggested as a possible suitor, given the Demons hold draft pick options that might be attractive to the Eagles.
http://www.news.com.au/sport/afl/west-coast-star-luke-shuey-attracts-plenty-of-interest-from-victorian-based-clubs/story-fnfll94y-1226733476015?from=trendinglinks
1116 SEN reported that Adelaide's Ricky Henderson has been at Collingwood today undergoing a medical. It's expected that Collingwood will trade their second round pick to Adelaide for Henderson, so that the Crows can on-trade that selection to Brisbane for Jared Polec.
The pick is higher than Port Adelaide's second round selection, meaning Port Adelaide will have to either part ways with their first rounder or acquire a higher pick to entice Brisbane to trade with them.

Hope Ricky is a good bloke or collingwood wouldn't want him. Good blokes will be good for Eddie and Nates ego. Not good for winning a flag. How ironic Nate and Eddie want team players at Collingwood.
-
Collingwood again FFS, who aren't they linked to, honestly they will replace their regular 22 at this rate... ::)

What do collonwood intend of trading for these 543564322 players they're likely to get? :lol

Henderson goes alright, would be a good pick up for a 2nd rounder.
-
Wouldn't get a game for us, what his best position, ::)
-
Wouldn't get a game for us, what his best position, ::)
He probably wouldn't at the moment. He's more a rebounding defender for the Crows, but is a better long term option I would have thought than Astbury/Dea and even Batchelor. Then again, things change quickly and who knows what 2014 will bring.

AFL Draft, Trade, Free Agency, List and General News ·
TRADE RUMOURS COMPLETE;
ADELAIDE -
Have been heavily liked to Jared Polec but given they have no picks in the first or second rounds, are hinging on organising a trade with Collingwood for their second round pick (which is higher than Port Adelaide's), in return for Ricky Henderson. The Crows have also been interested in GWS' Shaun Edwards with a rumoured 2 year deal put to him. Adelaide have also expressed interest in unrestricted free agent, Hawk Xavier Ellis.
BRISBANE -
Likely to lose Elliott Yeo to Brisbane on a reported three year deal, and the Lions will do well to get the Eagles' second round pick, which is at pick 24. Patrick Karnezis is also heading back to Victoria, however despite being heavily linked to Collingwood, has now become the target of both North Melbourne and St Kilda. The Lions would be stoked to secure St Kilda's second round pick which is pick 21, however he is shaping up to be more of a third round selection at this stage. The lions would be feeling ripped off, given both SA teams will only be bidding for a second round selection, despite Polec being a former pick 6. The lions run the risk of losing Polec for nothing if a deal can't be secured and he walks to the preseason draft. Sam Docerhty has been linked to the Blues, and the Lions again would be dirty on losing a first round selected player, for lesser value than what he was drafted. Ditto that Billy Longer who has walked out on Brisbane, and will become a Hawk this coming week. Luke McGuane will join the club on Monday as a free agent. It looks as though Brisbane may flood the draft with up to six selections in the second round of the draft.
CARLTON -
The blues will lodge paperwork on Monday for Collingwood's Dale Thoams, which will be approved same day, as the Pies have already stated they will not be matching Carlton's offer. The Blues also lead the race for Sam Docherty and would be more than happy to part ways with a second round pick should Brisbane accept. The former pick 12 was a Blues supporter growing up, and has nominated the Blues as his preference. Whipping boy, Shaun Hampson has been linked to Richmond with a second round pick looming for his services according to reports - which you could argue, is overs. Mitch Robinson has been linked with a move to Port Adelaide however Carlton have rubbished this. Carlton also will not receive any compensation selection for losing Eddie Betts, with the incoming Dale Thomas set to cancel out the loss/gain ratio.
COLLINGWOOD
Linked to just about everybody in this trade period. The Pies have prioritised Taylor Adams as their number one target, and will find out tomorrow if they can secure their man. With reports suggesting GWS have declined any sort of interest in Travis Varcoe, would suggest Collingwood are in the box seat to attain the highly-touted midfielder. Patrick Karnezis was linked early with Collingwod, however interest has cooled by the Pies and they are tipped to overlook him in favour of Adelaide's Ricky Henderson who passed a medical test at the Westpac centre, yesterday. Collingwood fans will be delighted that despite the loss of Dale Thomas, the Pies will be compensated with a first round pick - pick 11, (Edit:Richmonds Pick) meaning back-to-back picks for the Pies for the second time in as many years. :facepalm ::) The AFL reported Collingwood's strong interest in Luke Shuey, however that is a long shot. What Collingwood decide to do with Heath Shaw will shape the Pies' trade period. There are suggestions that he will be used to get Taylor Adams, but his latest link to Gold Coast means that Collingwood could demand ANOTHER first round pick for Shaw, more likely to be Gold Coast's end of first round compensation pick - No 18. Jesse White has highlighted Collingwood as his club of choice, and it could mean the Pies would need to trade away their second round pick.
ESSENDON
Not much happening on the Essendon front. They have been more inclined to sure-up their playing list, with an array of players who were out of contract all but tied up. Stewart Crameri is set to join the Bulldogs, but at what price is still yet to be determined. The Bombers are likely to nab the Western Bulldogs' second round pick, which would thrust the Dons back into the draft in the second round. Scott Gumbleton's position at the club still remains at a mystery and could also join the Bulldogs in the latest reports. The Bombers are still linked to Nick Dal Santo, but that seems unlikely now. David Myers will make a decision on his playing future over the weekend, and is expected to announce that tomorrow. The Bombers could strike lucky again, and given that the Saints are so into Myers, the dons could command St Kilda's second round pick, which would give Essendon back-to-back second round selections at pick 21 and 22. There has been a whisper that Essendon could make a bid for Geelong's Travis Varcoe, but the lack of draft pick would mean the Dons are an outside chance to nab him, but they do have plenty of fringe players who could do with more opportunity and a change of landscape.
FREMANTLE
Since snagging Col Sylvia, who should finally flourish in a team where he isn't so heavily relied up - should see him live up to the hype of which surrounded him at the time of his drafting. However, the Dockers are also likely to lure over Hawk, Xavier Ellis who is another unrestricted free agent who will test the waters for greener pastures. The latest reports suggest that the Dockers will make a big play for Sydney's Sam Reid who might be a little frustrated given Tippett and Buddy being acquired in as many years. The Dockers have some room to move on their list, and given the $1.3 million they threw at Travis Cloke last year, would imply they have plenty of cash to splash on a new gun recruit. James Podsiadly is set to be snapped up by Freo, too - one a two-year deal as a delisted free agent.
GEELONG
Always a dark horse in the trade period, Geelong just know how to get things done, and this year should be no different. The Cats have become late players for Taylor Adams, and have the likes of Travis Varcoe and Taylor Hunt to throw up as potential trade bait. Varcoe has fallen off the map after a few years of injuries, whilst Hunt has been thrown around as "surplus" to Geelong's needs. Collingwood has shown interest in Taylor Hunt, and he could be used in a trade to get out-of-favour rebounding defender, Heath Shaw who would add speed to Geelong's defence. They have been in constant talks with Shaw's manager and plenty of three-time premiership stars would be quick to pull Shaw into line, and eliminate his hyper-activeness and quick lip.
GOLD COAST
It'll be a very quiet trade and free agency period for the Suns, who's list is starting to take shape. Bluey McKenna has expressed his desire to add a rebounding defender to their list, and Heath Shaw fit's that bill. The Suns have put plenty of time into Shaw, and could thrash out a deal with the Pies to get a deal done. The Suns could offload their end of first round compo pick for Shaw, which currently stands at pick 18, allowing Collingwood to have three picks inside the first round for the second year in a row. There is however, some interesting news emerging from the Suns, with Gary Ablett urging the Gold Coast recruiting staff and McKenna, to bring in Josh Hunt who would fill a rebounding role immediately should the Shaw deal fall through. Hunt, along with Chapman may link up with premiership teammate Ablett, at the Suns. Apart from that, not happening at the Gold Coast.
GWS
Flirted with the idea of off-loading their number one pick, but given the lack of potential suitors, that has now all but been taken off the table. With the giants missing out on Buddy Franklin, expect the Giants to take Tom Boyd and continue to build for the future. Taylor Adams has declined a new contract from the Giants over the weekend, confirming that Adams will not be back at Blacktown in 2014. The Giants have shown monumental interest in Heath Shaw and have promised the erratic defender that he will become a permanent midfielder in their system. The Giants have also thrown up interest in Alan Didak which would further entice Shaw to move to the newest expansion club with his best mate. It would all but tie-up Taylor Adams to Collingwood, in what would be a win/win for both sides. Should Heath Shaw decline the move north, the Pies could table pick 10 to the Giants for Adams, who was previously taken at pick 13 in the 2011 national draft. Shane Mumford will be a huge acquisition for the Giants, who are lacking a ball-winning ruckman, capable of slamming the ball down the throats of their elite on-ballers. The Giants have the cash to splash, so if they can grab Shaw to compliment Mumford - it will be an almighty trade period getting another two premiership players on its list.
HAWTHORN
With Max Bailey retiring, it all but means now that Billy Longer will become a Hawk as soon as tomorrow - since telling the club he's not coming back in 2014. Longer, a former pick 8 - has told his manager that he wants to play as a number one ruck, and will take up that role at the reigning premiers. The Hawks have lost spearhead to Sydney but with no ill-feelings, given what Buddy has been able to give the club in his time. Xavier Ellis has also become the interest of Adelaide and Fremantle, and the Hawks will be compensated for his departure should he leave. The Hawks have a warchest that they will unleash on the free agency and trade period, but whether or not they acquire a big name is another issue altogether. There have been reports that Paul Chapman could become a Hawk, which would prove to be ironic given his history at Geelong.
MELBOURNE
Josh Mahoney still continues to float the idea of Melbourne offloading pick 2 for mature talent. The only problem is that there isn't much available. Melbourne will attempt to send pick 2 to West Coast in order to lure home local boy, Luke Shuey who according to the AFL website has "warmed" to the idea of moving back to Victoria. It's unlikely that the Eagles will let him go, but the carrot of pick 2 is appealing. The Dees have kept their cards to their chest, after a taking on a "moneyball" approach in the 2012 offseason with little return, the Dees will be careful of doing the same in 2013. Col Sylvia has departed the club as a free agent, and his compensation will be very interestingly determined. There have been reports that Melbourne have thrown a lifeline to delisted Bulldog, Daniel Cross with a two-year deal and a move into a coaching role in his third.
NORTH MELBOURNE
The Roos are shaping up to be ruthless in the trade and free agency period, and have b-lined the likes of Nick Dal Santo and possibly Heath Shaw as potential recruits. Dal Santo is the most likely to find himself at the Roos, whilst North will be cutting loose some surplus players who carry with them solid currency given they are in demand. Luke Delaney has been tabled a three-year deal by the Saints and looks certain to land at Seaford, whilst Levi Greenwood has become the object of interest from the Saints as well as Melbourne and Gold Coast. The big coup for the North was re-signing gun forward Aaron Black to a deal that ties him to the club until 2017.
PORT ADELAIDE
The Power are a re-invigorated group, who are finally starting to attract players to the club once again. Mitch Robinson has sparked interest in crossing to the Power, whilst Matt White was taken for nothing as a free agent during the week. Jared Polec however, is the big fish for the Power. Polec grew up supporting the Power and Port Adelaide are the most likely of the two SA clubs to land the home-grown talent. The Power would ideally like to part ways with their second round pick for Polec, but should Adelaide get a deal done with Collingwood for their second round pick - it would mean that Adelaide would have a higher second round pick which could force the Power into using their first round selection.
RICHMOND
A lot like Essendon in the fact that they have been more inclined to sign up their elite young talent, rather that go out and look for more. The Tigers have now withdrawn interest on Taylor Adams, with bigger offers looming from Collingwood and Geelong, and an apprehensive approach into trading their first round selection - a pick of which they have had a great success with in previous years. Shaun Hampson could be sought out as back up for Ivan Marric, whilst Paul Chapman could be just what the doctor ordered for the young Tiger cubs, with his energy, experience and leadership something that Damian Harwick would love to draw on. There was some shaky ground for a moment whilst Reece Conca and Dustin Martin considered offers elsewhere, but their passion for the club and the jumper ultimately meant they were really never ever in doubt of leaving a club who is certainly on the rise. The Tigers should also get some decent compo out of Matt White and Luke McGuane who have accept some big deals at Port and Brisbane respectively, which could see another two first-round picks land at the Tigers. The Tigers are yet to re-sign David Astbury, almost underlining the fact that he will be used as trade bait this week.
ST KILDA
The Saints should prosper this trade period, with Luke Delaney already being offered a three-year deal to cross to Seaford. He, and GWS defender Josh Bruce - who has also finger-pointed the Saints as a new club he wants to be traded to, could hold down the fort in defence for the next decade, with a few little additions here and there. Pick 3 should land the Saints an elite talent, set to be either James Aish or Josh Kelly. Sam Fisher could be headed north to GWS, and he could become part of a trade that gets Bruce to the Saints. Nick Dal Santo could be headed to North Melbourne, and he is growing tired of St Kilda's reluctance to provide transparency as to whether or not they want him, or not. Dal is most likely to end up at North Melbourne, and could be another player who could provide a pathway into luring other talent to the club. The Saints have also shown interest in delisted Fremantle defender, Peter Faulks who would complete a defensive overhaul at the Saints, locking in two key defenders and a third tall. The Saints have also taken a strong look at the delisted free agent pool, in the hope of snapping up some talent. Marcus Davies will under go a medical at St Kilda this week as will Joel Wilkerson and Maverick Weller.
SYDNEY
Won't be a big player, but they don't need to be when they land the hottest free-agent this week in Lance Franklin. Shane Mumford is off to GWS, meaning a trade will be fostered between the two "cross-bridge" rivals. It's like GWS will want to trade either of their top 10 picks, which would mean pick 19 - the first pick in the second round would be more plausible. Same Reid is rumoured to be a touch disgruntled at Buddy's signing, which puts him further back in the pecking order. Sydney will want to turn him into a defender, but Fremantle have come knocking, and Collingwood may test the waters should Heath Shaw want to head to the Swans to join his brother. Jesse White is headed to Collingwood, and the Swans will feel as tho his return in 2013 will warrant a second round pick, currently Collingwood's pick 27. The Pies will push hard for their third round pick, but run the risk of losing white to another club willing to part ways with a higher pick. Collingwood and Sydney have a smooth trading history, so there is nothing to suggest that this one won't go through just as easily.
WEST COAST
For the second time in as many years, another player has decided to head back to Perth and have nominated the Eagles as his preference. Last year it was Jamie Cripps, this year it's Elliott Yeo who has been offered a three-year deal and will immediately add some speed and pace to West Coast's midfield, who are desperate to inject some run into their midfield. Their second round pick is what will be demanded from Brisbane, but if the Lions don't strike a deal, he could walk to the preseason draft which is worst case scenario for the Lions. There has been some suggestion that Luke Shuey has "warmed" to the idea of returning to Victoria according to the AFL website. Although unlikely, Shuey' has had family relocate to Perth, so a move back to Melbourne could be a little far-fetched. There is however the danggling carrot of Pick 2 on the table from the Dee's, who would trade away the pick to the Eagles in a heartbeat. It would mean that West Coast have picks 2 and 6 in the first round, not bad for a team who were tipped to win this years flag. Rumour's of Scott Selwood being trade bait have been knocked dead by his management.
WESTERN BULLDOGS
The Doggies won't be overly active this trade period, but they could bob up with a surprise trade or two. Stewart Crameri has been a monty to cross to the Whitten Oval since mid-year, and the dogs would be happy to hand over their second round pick to add some more stability and goal-kicking prowess to their young side. Jordan Gysberts could also be the target of the Bulldogs, whilst Chris Yarran is the big name who has attracted interest from the doggies.

No chance at a 1st rounder for either

Only say 2nd rounders daniel because I believe, though not completely sure, that the value of their new contracts -v- value of their old deals might also be taken into consideration
Don't forget White was taken with pick 1 in the PSD, so he might score you a 2nd rounder
As to when we find out? Have no idea

Fremantle have spent the weekend speaking to Sam Reid's management in the attempt to entice the key forward to the Dockers, who now sits behind Lance Franklin and Kurt Tippett in the forward line for the Swans. There has been rumour that Reid is open to the opportunity of the trade, given the likelihood that Sydney will land Buddy during the early part of the week. Reid still has three years to run on a five-year deal.
SEN have reported that GWS have declined interest in Geelong's Travis Varcoe, who was reported to be trade bait to lure Taylor Adams to the Cats.
The Courier Mail is reporting that Gold Coast have drummed up interest in Heath Shaw over the weekend.

Technically We should first thing in the morning! We won't though you watch >:(
I don't know how we're meant to trade pick 11 if its really pick 12? And if we are giving up our second round pick for Hampson surely it would be better to offer our Compo pick first, o'h that's right, we don't know what the stuff were getting!!!! The whole thing is a sham!!!

judging by last years, unrestricted received 3rd round or nothing.
Brett Moloney(2 year deal) got melbourne a third round, and i cant see White being on more coin.

Agree with this. But, maybe the Tiges know the second round compo pick they are getting and it's better than 28, so they have offered that pick 28 for him.....just a thought.

Ahhh, cheers tigs, I wasn't sure how long this whole Circus ran for. I thought FA was done already. So is there still a trade period after the FA period finishes?

Port currently leads the chase for Jared Polec because it has a first and second-round draft pick to tempt the Lions. The Power says the first-round call is not on the table for the outside-running midfielder. Adelaide’s challenge is to find a second-round draft pick that is more appealing to Brisbane - or to trade Crows players direct to Brisbane or work a third-party, such as Richmond, into the deal.

RICHMOND
NOT a lot at Punt Rd for rival clubs to pinch with several key Tigers including Dustin Martin, Reece Conca, Brandon Ellis and stars Jack Riewoldt and Trent Cotchin signing contract extensions. The Tigers could seek out Blues' big man Shaun Hampson to assist Ivan Maric while recruiting former Cat Paul Chapman is not beyond them. Chappy would provide an avenue to goal relieving Riewoldt. Patrick Karnezis could be a like-for-like replacement for utility Luke McGuane, who walked out on the club last week seeking a trade to Brisbane.
Free agents: nil
Draft picks: 11, 28, 46, 64, 82, 100, 118

Fremantle have spent the weekend speaking to Sam Reid's management in the attempt to entice the key forward to the Dockers, who now sits behind Lance Franklin and Kurt Tippett in the forward line for the Swans. There has been rumour that Reid is open to the opportunity of the trade, given the likelihood that Sydney will land Buddy during the early part of the week. Reid still has three years to run on a five-year deal.
SEN have reported that GWS have declined interest in Geelong's Travis Varcoe, who was reported to be trade bait to lure Taylor Adams to the Cats.
The Courier Mail is reporting that Gold Coast have drummed up interest in Heath Shaw over the weekend.
https://www.facebook.com/AFLSeasonAndOffSeasonNews
I suggested this last week- why aren't we talking to his management?? And don't anyone suggest we don't have anything to trade because we do. Reid is contracted too.
And going to play for Sydney with how close they are to another flag with Buddy there would be a pretty attractive opportunity for anyone.
Grow some balls Tigers- forget about trading for deadwood from other clubs that cannot even get a regular game.

What do you think he is on WP?

Here is a ten second thought of how we could land Reid-
Give our pick 11
We obviously have a little cap room if we are chancing Chapman and Adams, lets says its 300k
Also give them S. Edwards.
So they get pick 11 and a 25 year old, 129 game player that is best 22 of a finals side.
We get Reid, loose Edwards and his contract (300 to 350K)
Pay Reid 400k and have 200k to pay young kid who comes in.
Pretty simple even for conservative people at Tigerland.

Have no idea but seeing it was a 5 year deal I would expect that each year it increases
As a guess would think for KP forward somewhere between $350k-$450k a season over the term of the deal

We dont need Reid. We only need one or two of our budding KPP players to come on and we wont have to over pay. We needed a backup ruckman as per whats been said on this forum many namy times. Is Hansen the man? Well that is yet to be seen but I remember so many post about Maric like the ones bagging Hansen. I will wait and see.

Sam Reid is very exciting kid, not great yet but has massive potential. He has shown he can more than play at the level and is still only 21. Has more ability than Astbury, Griffiths and Batchelor put together.
And that why we would want Reid.

Agree, lol at the people bagging Sam Reid. Same people that want Griffiths playing CHF I bet

we dont need a backup ruckman, we need another first tier ruckman.

if sam reid played for richmond, you'd all be bagging
1) his contract length
2) his crap kicking
3) his softness
4) his crepe paper body

then you'd bag him for stagnating and not being the number one KPF in the comp at age 21

Just had the mail man cross the street to tell me the reasoning behind Nahas being traded. Apparently the club has ordered he got to the weight room to beef up for the past 2 years but while in there instead of working out he has been offering to spot the players on bench press. Now they are a tight knit group but Nahas providing a spot for them is making a lot of players feel very uneasy and a little self conscious so they have resorted to dobbing on him which now means the club aren't happy with him.

Carlton offers Josh Bootsma, Kane Lucas, Levi Casboult for trade as it chases Paul Chapman
by: Jay Clark, Jon Anderson
•From: Herald Sun
•October 08, 2013 6:10PM
CARLTON looms as a possible new home for Paul Chapman after they met for preliminary discussions on Monday.
The Blues are looking at a variety of recruitment options in an effort to revitalise a list that could only win three of 13 games against teams that finished above it on the home-and-away ladder (including Essendon).
Chapman, 31, wasn’t offered a new contract by the Cats after 251 games between 2000-13, but firmly believes he has good football left in him.
His manager Liam Pickering said today Carlton was one of four clubs that had contacted him.
"Any club that thinks they can contend next year would obviously be mad not to speak with 'Chappy'. He feels as if his body will allow him at least two good years," Pickering said.
When Chapman did play in eight matches for 2013 his statistics were outstanding, better in all areas than his career averages and that included two games where he was substitute.
The sticking point for a possible Chapman deal could come down to money with the Blues heavily committed after signing Dale Thomas from Collingwood.
But they have made it known they are willing to part with first-round draftees Josh Bootsma and Kane Lucas, plus ruckman-forward Levi Casboult, as part of the club’s dramatic list overhaul.
The Blues have told rivals they are prepared to trade either of the pair if it helps secure coach Michael Malthouse some top-line midfield talent.
The move has surprised other clubs, given Carlton used their first selections in the 2009 and 2011 national drafts to select Lucas and Bootsma.
Carlton has also been linked to Shane Savage from Hawthorn.
Lucas, 22, had his best year this season, averaging 18 touches from 17 games, but he lost his place late in the campaign and missed out on finals.
Bootsma, 20, was played in a key defensive post at times this year but in his nine games in the backline did not take an intercept mark, according to Champion Data. The Blues this year re-signed Bootsma for two more years, until the end of 2015.
At Geelong, Chapman’s long-time teammate Joel Corey will not be offered a new contract and is expected to retire.
But don’t wait for any fanfare as Corey will leave the game as he played it — quietly.

-
LOL with those 3 names....
Lucas goes OK nut other two are abysmal. Carlton trying to offload all their spuds after nailing us with Hampson..
-
Lucas has terrible disposal at times. We already have Grigg with the same ailment from Carlton and now possibly Hampson. Pass on those blokes.
-
Bootsma is a 1st round draft pick? wow :badidea
Lucas looks ok but his kicking is abysmal, Casboult is a one trick pony, takes a grab, but worse kick at goal than cloke and as slow as Ben Holland
-
Essendon have always been hard to trade with.Not sure what their problem is this year.you would think they would be a bit more open to trade players considering they have jack draft picks
Did anyone see the Essendon list manager Adrian Dodoro today interviewed, talk about the mafia look!!!
-
Lucas? Give me a spell. Useless.

Gee there is some silly poo thrown out at this time of the year.

Talk about getting that pick wrong in Bootsma being a first rounder. Reckon he should be played as a forward just not enough bulk or footy smarts to play down back. Nine games and no intercept mark that sums it up in a nutshell I would think.

How do you explain our steady rise up the ladder of the last few years?
Pot luck?
Poo username too. How about letting the bloke play a game before rubbishing him.
You realise that we're giving up about pick 31 in a shallow draft to get him? You would have thought we traded Cotch for him the way some of you are sooking.
-
Yep Pies are brilliant. Turned a dynasty into a disaster. Let's hope we can do the same. :clapping
No one said they were a dynasty
If they did show me I'm keen to see
I said they get the job done at the trade table.
People say we had nothing of value but I call bull poo.
Clubs are stupid at times look at the first rounder they got for Dawes/Wellingham
Foley/Edwards/Grigg/Grimes should've been thrown up just to see what some would pay

Yeo goes alright, will be a good pickup for one of the WA clubs. Definitely worth more than a 3rd rounder.

How many trades have they made so far?
Clubs are stupid at times look at the first rounder they got for Dawes/Wellingham
Foley/Edwards/Grigg/Grimes should've been thrown up just to see what some would pay
For every one club that throws up a stupid trade, there are 16 other clubs that play hard ball. As mentioned above, all the expectations of other clubs in terms of what they want in return seems to be way to high.
Also who says we haven't put up a couple of players on the trade table like Foley, Grigg and Edwards - just because we haven't heard anything in the media doesn't mean its happened.
-
Last year St Kilda needed a backman, they wanted the contracted Mitch Brown, they couldn't get him, they wasted all their time on getting Brown and in the end finished up not getting anyone. Their back 6 in 2013 was one of the worst going around.
Last year, we needed a backman, we targeted Chaplin and got him.
This year, we needed a ruckman, we got Hampson.
I'm pretty happy about the way we go about it.

Lets not forget that picks 1 and 2 are both on the table but can't seem to attract any attention!
So basically we are putting up Edwards, Foley, Grimes and Grigg against pick 1, Pick 2, Adams, Sheil, Mumford, And Shaw. These are the top line players and pick that clubs are looking to attract decent players with and look what we are throwing up :lol

I can't believe that GWS a club that is starved of tall defenders wants pick 21 for an average tall defender who has only played 11 games this year????
Way to sell it Orange Goblins. :lol
I can't see what all the "Doggie love" is for Crameri??? A teen pick??? :lol Someone must have pictures.....

Port Adelaide have outlined Travis Varcoe as a player of interest but refuse to part ways with their first round pick.
Adrian Dorodo has been coy over the prospects of Essendon recruiting hawks on baller, Brad Sewell.
Shane Savage has announced that he has chosen Carlton as his club of preference to be traded to. It's understood pick 28 that the blues acquired for the Shaun Hampson trade will get the deal done.
Scott Gumbleton has told the Essendon Football Club that he wants to pursue opportunities elsewhere.
https://www.facebook.com/AFLSeasonAndOffSeasonNews
- JAMES POLKINGHORNE and AARON CORNELIUS have requested trades away from BRISBANE.
- BRISBANE have expressed interest in DAVID MACKAY and JARRYD LYONS from ADELAIDE
- The age are reporting that PATRICK KARNEZIS will become a COLLINGWOOD player for a third or fourth round pick
http://www.scpaige.com.au/updated-trade-rumours-and-free-agency-movement/
- Adelaide are interested in Delisted cat James Podsiadly and injury prone Essendon forward Scott Gumbleton, the club's priorty is to acquire Brisbane midfielder Jared Polec. Ricky Henderson is a required player.
- Carlton football manager has confirmed that Carlton are interested in Paul Chapman, Shane Savage is also on the radar but salary cap restraints and the desire to have 4 picks in the national draft looks like it will restrict any deal, Sam Docherty also falls into this scenario. Josh Bootsma, Levi Casboult and Kane Lucas are all on the trade table.

HAWTHORN will need to give up at least its first-round pick to secure 20-year-old Brisbane Lions ruckman Billy Longer, according to Lions talent manager Rob Kerr. Longer has nominated Hawthorn as the club of his choice, but Kerr believes the Hawks would need to include pick 18 in their deal.

Brisbane are exploring a trade that could see Western Bulldog Jarrad Grant continue his career in Queensland. The Lions, who are waiting on Carlton's offer for defender Sam Docherty, may instead look at sending him to the Whitten Oval in a deal that would involve Grant.
http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/lions-weigh-up-trade-for-dogs-grant-20131009-2v8qn.html
MELBOURNE ruckman Mark Jamar appears to have played his last game for the Demons, but remains a chance to continue his AFL career elsewhere. In what is understood to have been a mutual decision between the player and new Demons coach Paul Roos, the contracted Jamar is up for trade just three years after being an All-Australian ruckman.

Absurd! McEvoy is a very good player IMO.
Must have a lot of faith in Hickey and Stanley.
So, where does this leave Longer? Brisbane wanted that first round pick for him!

Maybe the Saints go and pick him up now as they currently have 3, 17, 21.
Or Hawthorn still trade for him but wait for the Buddy compo pick to be credited?
-
Looks like we pulled the trigger to early on Hampson.
We could be into longer up to our eyeballs right about now :(
-
Yeah I wouldn't give pick 11 though. Not for an unproven kid.
I just wonder what our comp pick will be. Maybe Brisbane would have taken two second rounders? Instead of one late first rounder (approx 20).
-
Looks like we pulled the trigger to early on Hampson.
We could be into longer up to our eyeballs right about now :(
Longer wouldn't get a game next season for us, so not sure how he would help alleviate Maric's load. Nothing really to point to him being a quality ruck either, other than he was a top 10 pick in his year.
-
we still could, if we are willing to use our first round pick on a player who will most probably be 3-4 years away from having any real impact.
I dont know how much credence there was in the talk that carlton would on trade our pick for savage, but if there was anything to it it would mean hawthorn have effectively given up 17 and 28 (29/30 whatever) for McEvoy
-
we still could, if we are willing to use our first round pick on a player who will most probably be 3-4 years away from having any real impact.
I think that is the main reason the priority was Hampson. Longer could very well turn out to be rubbish too.
Brisbane 'reportedly' wanted 17 and a player for Longer, so essentialy the Hawks went and spent the same amount on getting McEvoy.
Unless we get a mid who has been in the system for a few years (Adams type) then I'd hold on to pick 11 (12 after compos) and draft another gun. No secret that we are becoming a better side with the natural improvement each year of those first rounders (Martin, Conca, Ellis, Vlastuin).

It's not about next year with Longer, it's about 2-3 years from now when we don't have a ruckman at all. The Bog O dig a great job chopping out this year why can't he do the same next?
All I'm saying is if we hung in there we may have ended up with Longer for next to nothing.

thank **** we didn't end up with longer
cam wood mk 2 , won't be on a list in 2 years

When that time comes, we'll probably be in the place to trade our first pick and a player who can't get a game for an established younger ruck (like McEvoy). Let someone put in the hard yard and develop them then we'll pinch them ;D

LMAO....we have no old players to move on! :lol Tuck went this year, Newman and King will be gone next, I'm not sure what the difference would be if they left this year because we don't get anything for them if they retire :lol
It's not as if Hunt (31 and 9 games) Chapman (32 and 8 Games) and Corey (31 and 20 games) Podsiadly (32 and 20 games) were going to go on for ever anyway and besides that they got nothing in return for any of them either!!
As for chasing players hard, Varco is the only Geelong name I've heard as being on the table and there certainly isn't a whole lot of interest there either....
Collingwood had Thomas walk out on the club, yes they have put Shaw up for trade and looks as though he will be used to get the Adams deal done but besides being linked to every player who has asked to be moved on they haven't seem to hacmve got much over the line yet.
So feel free to explain what you mean by chasing players Hard and how it's different to how we have been going about it.

RUMOUR
There have been rumours that Carlton and Collingwood could come together in a trade for Heath Shaw.
There have been suggestions that Andrew Walker and Mick Malthouse have had a big falling out, and Walker has requested a trade.
The proposed rumoured trade would see Walker become a Magpie and Shaw reunite with former coach and close friend, Dale Thomas and Heath Scotland.
This is a rumour only, and should be treated as one.
https://www.facebook.com/AFLSeasonAndOffSeasonNews

I was sitting at a souvlaki bar the other day and heard exactly the same thing
GOSPEL
-
I heard Melbounre were considering offering pick 2 for Walker :(
(this is only a rumor and should be treated as one)

On current form, Walker is worth pick 2. Don't think he would want to go to the Demons though. But I'd hate it if the friggin pies get him!

There have been multiple clubs enquire about delisted Carlton defender Jeremy Laidler with an expectation there will be more interest in the next few weeks.
Sam Docherty continues to be linked with Carlton and the Western Bulldogs. Both clubs have been "very active" in pursuing the disgruntled Brisbane Lion with Petroro expecting things to play out in the "next day or two".
Daniel Cross will have to wait until late in the trade period to find out if he's to be thrown a lifeline by Melbourne.

It's becoming more likely that Jared Polec will end up at Port, but Adelaide are trying to work a 3-way trade with Collingwood involving Ricky Henderson to pip their rivals. The Pies are coy over trading their second round pick, as they have prioritised Jesse White ahead of Henderson.
Geelong are the latest team to forge interest in Jesse White, which could involve Travis Varcoe heading to the harbour city.
Sydney are reportedly interested in Geelong's Travis Varcoe according to the AFL website.
West Coast are showing a small amount of interest for Carlton midfielder Kane Lucas according to 3AW.
Peter Ryan says that Heath Shaw has made his preference Geelong but says "either way, Taylor Adams will be a Pie".
Emma Quayle is reporting in The Age that the Saints are almost certain to take delisted Free Agent Darren Jolly as insurance in their ruck department.
St Kilda are set to make a move on GWS Ruckman Jonathan Giles after parting ways with Ben McEvoy according to the Herald Sun.

It is always like this, once your team gets knocked out, you look forward to trade week and start dreaming up trades your team can make.
Then when it finally comes around, it drags on and on and on and nothing really happens.
It's even worse now that it's trade 3 weeks, instead of the old 1 week system.

Adelaide Crows midfielder Bernie Vince has met with Melbourne officials.
Heath Shaw's manager Ben Niall confirms to @traderadio that the Blues are interested. He confirmed Carlton is one of the clubs that has made an offer to Shaw.
St Kilda revealed it's interested in trading for the first pick in the draft. GWS saying no deal.
Billy Longer is looking at his options, and admits the Hawks took them by surprise when they brought in Ben McEvoy. Longer could still get to Hawthorn, but there is a possibility he may end up staying at the Brisbane Lions.
Stewart Crameri will get to the Western Bulldogs, but the trade 'could drag out'.
Xavier Ellis is confident in his body. Connors believes he could be the 'jewel in the crown' for a club this year. Ellis has had medicals at a couple of clubs including Fremantle.
Connors on Darren Jolly at Saints: He's got a relationship with Scott Watter, they've made an initial enquiry but it hasn't gone too far yet.
Dale Thomas's manager Paul Connors confirms that one doctor gave a diagnosis that his ankle would not be right until half way through season 2014. Thomas then saw other surgeons who gave him a better diagnosis that he would be ready for Round 1.
Scott Gumbleton will most likely not be at Essendon next season, he will be having medicals at a couple of clubs, one of which is Fremantle.

GET the feeling Richmond has its cue in the trades rack after a hectic start saw Matt White (off to Port Adelaide) and Shaun Hampson's arrival from Carlton. The Tigers don't have any salary cap room to make a big play following a series of re-signings including Dustin Martin, Reece Conca and Jack Riewoldt. Richmond is not interested in Paul Chapman.

Melbourne, North Melbourne and Essendon have been named as the three clubs interested in Adelaide's Bernie Vince. The Advertiser reports that Melbourne could offer pick 20 for Vince, whilst Essendon could do a straight swap with key forward Scott Gumbleton and North would likely need to offer more than it's pick 26.
Crow Shaun McKernan has been linked to St Kilda this morning with the Herald Sun reporting the Saints are amongst those interested.
West Coast have formally offered Brisbane their second round pick for Elliott Yeo. The Lions are yet to accept the deal.

If Freo gives up their second round pick for Grumblebum they are ****ing insane !
He has played 30 odd games in seven years and only one or two of those games were any good. He's pox !
If that deal goes through it won't make me feel so bad about us giving up a second round pick for a Carlton reserves player.

Gee whiz, Richmond and salary cap pressure again. Only place that should be printed is Fortean Times.

Geoff Walsh - Football Manager - from Collingwood.
Leigh Tudor - Assistant Coach - from Sydney/St Kilda.

Meanwhile we are not replacing Leppitsch directly but are adding Bailey as a development coach.
I've got a sneaky feeling that the cost of upgrading Punt Road to VFL game standard is costing us in coaching staff.

He asked if I was happy with the players the Tigers had picked up and then said oops, it's all still a big secret but Taylor Petrenko is coming over.
Norf offereing $300k, Pies $340k and we pipped them all with $360k :rollin
I will repeat the question. Who?
Long story short Fluffy, one of the guys I work with often tells me about 3 players his son knows who play in the AFL.
Alex Conti is at Fremantle, Taylor Petrenko at North and Adam LeCras is at Gold Coast and they are all regular senior players. :rollin
None of these guys exist. :lol
Anyway, Conti is apparently keen to return to Victoria and Richmond and Collingwood were interested, he played in the Grand Final, number 20 and was wearing a head bandage.
Now it sounds like a done deal that Petrenko will be joining us as a free agent, he has turned his back on the lure of returning to rugby and offers from North and Collingwood and has accepted our 2 year deal. :rollin
I have no idea if this guy is spinning poo for a laugh or he is freakin' nuts. :lol
-
Good news guys, Taylor Petrenko has picked us and will be joining us from the Roos on a deal worth $360k a year for 2 years.
Just got the scoop then :rollin
Is this ur mate again with all the bizarre statements

Thank you for clearing this up. (I think)

Ok, so I have been talking with my co-worker. His son plays VFL and is friends with some AFL players.
There is just one HUGE problem with the goss he gives me. The players he talks about are all made up!
He is deadly serious too, every time I see him, he tells me about them. I have a feeling he may be getting names terribly mixed up, but he mentions the same names all the time.
So anyway, today he tells me some top secret goss, he says Richmond might get a good player in the trade period, I say 'Adams', he says no, 'Alex Conti'. :huh
I must have given him a look, because he says 'you know Alex Conti, from Freo, he's playing this weekend'. :huh
This is the same Alex Conti that allegedly played against us at the MCG last season in the wet and kicked 3 goals. :huh
He is a free agent (I think he means out of contract) and is keen to come back to Victoria. Collingwood are very interested in him as well.
But it doesn't end there, because we're also looking at a player from North Melbourne, Taylor Petrenko.... :huh
He is a regular senior player and hurt his achilles late in the season. He has a rugby background and Cronulla are also trying to lure him back to rugby.
Norf are paying him $220k, and we've offered $250k.
So what should we trade for these fictional players? Jim Boogie for Conti and Ema Nymton for Petrenko? Would that be enough to get the deal done?
Must have been a bidding war for Petrenko, our original offer was only $250k, we've had to tack on another $110k to nab him.

Darley is a quality young mid. Still quite raw and needs to bulk up a bit, but is quick, very courageous and only has eyes for the footy. I'd seriously look at him if he is on offer.

I don't get it - Shaw is being booted out of the pies bc he's a disruption to team unity and openly challenges the coaches and leaders of the club with public displays of anger and frustration - yet this same player is desperately wanted for his leadership qualities at GWS :huh - if he's causing disharmony at a club like the pies which is full of strong leaders, what is he going to do with a list full of impressionable kids??

I think Bakes will have no hesitation in cutting him off at the knees if he gets out of line. Also I think from memory the Colour Orange has some interesting Physiological effects which may aid behavioural change in Shaw...read below ;D
Orange
Physiological Effect: Orange has proven to be a stimulus of the sexual organs. Also, it can be beneficial to the digestive system and can strengthen the immune system.
Psychological Effect: Orange has shown to have only positive affects on your emotional state. This color relieves feelings of self-pity, lack of self-worth and unwillingness to forgive. Orange opens your emotions and is a terrific antidepressant.
Well....A perfect colour for a team that never wins! ;D

And of course still all quiet on the Tiger trade front ...
RICHMOND
The Tigers have already acquired their main priority with Shaun Hampson joining them from Carlton for their second-round draft selection. Hampson fills the need for a big-man to help Ivan Maric in the ruck. The Tigers are also going to keep mature-age rookie Orren Stephenson as further insurance should one get hurt. The backline is in good shape with the acquisition of Troy Chaplin last year and the forward line looks OK, too, with the Tigers already ruling out Paul Chapman and Alan Didak as possible additions. While Taylor Adams appears Collingwood-bound, he would be a perfect fit for a developing Tiger on-ball brigade. All up, trade and free agency speculation surrounding Punt Road has been pretty quiet and it appears the Tigers are simply happy to keep their draft picks now they've got their big guy with a few – namely Matt White, Luke McGuane and seemingly Robbie Nahas – on the way out. - Jennifer Phelan

Collingwood have discussed exchanging their picks 11 and 27 for West Coast’s sixth selection. The Eagles would then on-trade 27 to the Brisbane Lions for Elliott Yeo.
The Pies are holding steadfast to their belief Heath Shaw and Taylor Adams should change clubs in the form of a straight swap only.

Bernie Vince is on the cusp of signing a lucrative long-term deal to join Melbourne. The Crows would gain pick 20 for Vince, who is holidaying in the US and yet to sign off on the deal.The 28-year-old, contracted for one more year at Adelaide, has been offered a three-year deal to join the Demons' midfield, with a trigger for a fourth season.
Matthew Buntine and Tom Bugg are young Giants linked to the proposed swap for pick two, which would also see Melbourne gain the Giants' selection No.9.
Essendon are looking at signing Paul Chapman on a two-year incentive based deal, a contract where he could earn around $300,000 per year. The second year would be triggered if he met certain targets.
Both Essendon and the Crows are interested in young Giant Shaun Edwards.

David Myers straight swap. Myers wants to come to Richmond anyway.
-
The ability to offload players with currency helps big time during the trade period. We had nothing to really offer. That's not a bad thing as it shows that our top 30 players are forming the nucleus of a very good side and the club has faith in the players we already have. We had a bit of a council cleanup and took a gamble on Hampson. There was no need for the broom to come sweeping though like we had to do when we started our rebuilding phase. We don't need change for change's sake.

Myers??? Yes Please. For Helbig, any day of the week!!!
Get it done Tiges. :clapping

And this was my problem with the way they were going about the Martin deal. Those 3 players is where the line should of been drawn, not with Martin. Lucky the deal got over the line, we need to renegotiate players deals like the 3 mentioned when they come up and have them sitting at about 200k, otherwise they can leave. We must keep our top line players.

Saints need a tall forward, they could give 3 and a player, but I think GWS would be wanting a big gun player.

So which club could utilise the services of Tom Boyd the most? I think Jobba could be on the money with Brisbane. Maybe not Rockliff but with Brown probably only lasting another year, Boyd would suit them to a Tee. Brisbane do love a Power Forward and I think that's why they are also looking at McGuane in case they cannot secure Boyd via pick one from GWS. ;D

Foley where was he in the elim final?
Edwards. Well he speaks for himself really. The lad been missing for 7 years give or take 10 games. Suffers from the Tambling introvert syndrome.
Grigg, possibly the most replaceable player out of the 3 i mentioned.

Touching the pill 20 times. Wow amazing lets keep him for 5 yrs, based on that.
I touch my mrs 20 times a day, it doesn't mean I'm effective at it
Quality not quantity and Grigg is average and replaceable. One game he polled 3 votes with your magic 20 possy's. Problem is he had 6 clangers. Clubs allow him to roam free because his not a damaging player and IMV the weakest link in our midfield by a fair margin.
Foley well clearly we don't think highly of him cause he wasn't even selected in the final, and Edwards well his 7 yrs speaks for himself

Apart from your marital bit which I'm obviously not privvy too and therefore in no position to assess, agree with all of that 100%. Arguably the three most chronically overrated players on our list, with less than three good yearss between them - most of which was from Foley six seasons ago.

No surprise but it's still all quiet on the Tiger front :boredom
Trade special: where your club sits

RICHMOND
The Tigers required a ruckman and they snared their man early in the trade period, trading pick No.28 (now No.32) to Carlton for Shaun Hampson in the first trade of 2013. All has been quiet on the trade front since, with Robin Nahas the only Tiger expected to move if a deal can be found. He will be delisted if not. Speedster Matt White moved to Port Adelaide as an unrestricted free agent in search of more opportunities.

There is nothing to upgrade them with available that wouldn't require draft picks that we don't have or, players we can't afford to lose so, I don't understand what you are asking for. The other thing you are saying about Foley is wrong, he was obviously still not 100% coming back from his injury and needed more games, so they didn't play him in the final, I never thought they would to be honest. He was obviously underdone.

well your right, we have nothing because we didnt put these 3 up and test the market. That was my point. perhaps i didnt explain it clearer and Mr bo as for your stat assertion well they belong up my date when our Grigg is concerned.
cheap handballs to cotch a metre or 20 metre floaters to lids, is not damaging for a outside player, and that my friend is included in your 73.11% or whatever it was.
Stats dont show he runs up and down. and side ways
stats dont show our grigg running like my grandma.
We have a habit at punt road to hold currency till its worthless
i hope we have seen the last of him in the seniors come round 1, replaced by Helbig or anyone really.

Jesse White will become a Collingwood player as early as Monday, with the Magpies gaining the Sydney forward in a three-way trade that also has netted the Magpies pick No. 6 in the national draft. Collingwood, West Coast and Sydney have agreed to a deal in which the Pies will move from pick 11 to pick 6, the Eagles will gain pick 31 from Collingwood, and Sydney will receive West Coast's pick 44. The Pies have also given up pick 49.
Collingwood has been unable to strike a deal for young Giant Taylor Adams, whom it wants to swap with Heath Shaw. The parties are still some distance apart.
St Kilda is poised to snare Brisbane Lions ruckman Billy Longer after the 20-year-old made the Saints his club of choice.

Billy Longer for pick 25? Sheesh, it won't be the GIFs that will put this place into meltdown :lol

stats don't mean a thing when your opponent is double teaming a team mate, creating goals, racking up possessions. That's why you always see these players down field & you notice them because the kicking cheap goals but get 5 kicked against them. That's good stats against you ;D :lol

At the same time we snaffled vlas and Mcbean , I'm still pinching myself they slipped through :shh

BJ I reckon getting Vlas might end up being one of the the more astute picks of recent times,by anyone.
AS for the Bean ,the jury is still out, but have seen enough of him in the magoos to salivate at his league debut.
One thing I did notice about the Bean was that he has a kick on him that would put Diamond Jim Tilbrook to shame

Yeah from where he watched Brisbane go on to win three Grand Finals while he won..lemme see...none. Figjam is cursed and his coaching is doomed to follow his playing career, into a dead end, which I heartily celebrate. If he proves me wrong, stuff him anyway.

The Pies have been recruiting well and setting themselves up to have picks in the draft for over 5 years now. They are one of the best at it along with the Swans who are the masters of draft trading.
Great business plans to have sustainability at the forefront!!!!

McDonough unfortunately is too slow for AFL at this stage of the proceedings. No where near the level required. Atleast Broomhead has some pace. Kennedy is a nice player who will definately make it at AFL level. Grundy has already shown he is more than capable.

Yes it appears the Pies are very good with their recruiting,but I reckon people should take a look at an even more successful club,the hawks and their recruiting. I reckon we have mirrored them with our recruiting

Granted we did something similar with pick 8 and Polak and still got Jack at pick 13 but it's a massive risk. I rate Sheed. Imagine if the Pies took Sheed with pick 10 and shafted the Eagles.
Even forgetting the Eagles, the Swans have effectively given away Jesse White for near next to nothing given no one rates this draft after pick 30 or so.

Moved quickly to trade for Shaun Hampson from Carlton for its second round pick (now pick 32). Matt White left as a free agent to Port but Tigers got no compensation for that because of his age and the size of his contract. Robin Nahas yet to attract much interest.

And why does Karnezis better our side? What does he bring that would influence our top 26 or so? Trading for the sake of trading gets us no where
-
Gee I don't know Einstein
Good third option up forward. Who will kick our goals if Jack goes down. U? It seems only a few of us have a clue on here, urself and that BJ fella are not 2 of them unfortunately.
Pick 50 is definitely worth a gamble and we could've had better picks had we traded out

Pretty petty to go for an individual attack simply because I disagree with you. But anyway -
We have the current listed at third forward (and this DOES NOT include resting ruckam - which will play a greater role next season with capped rotation):
Edwards, Elton, Griffiths, Knights (maybe) and McBean. My question to you is in two parts. Given the hypothetical situation above, if Jack does go down, is Karnezis more qualified than any of the above to step up? I remind you that this happened once last year, and whilst it was against GWS, we still kicked our highest score of the season. By a long way. By the way, this is someone who has played midfield in the Brisbane 2's for 3 years, and has played a total of how many games for Brisbane? Which has a fairly suspect forward line already. Keep in mind, McGuane (who wasn't in our best 22 come the end of the year) when up there to fill a role that Karnezis couldn't get a regular game in - at a worst side.
Second, whats the cap hit for us? Its obvious we are tight with the cap, and the fact that Karnezis would cost more to us in a dollar sense than pick 50. The reason Collingwood can pick up Adams, Jesse White and Karnezis? They lost approximately $2 million from their cap when they lost Shaw, Thomas, Didak, Johnson and Jolly. We have lost McGuane, but have re-signed Martin and Conca, whilst also grabbing Hampson and saving ourselves space to re-sign Ellis, Vlastuin etc in the coming years. We are also coming off signing in the last 18 months, Cotchin, Deledio, Riewoldt, Rance and Chaplin.
Now because you called me Einstein, heres what I'm going to do. Anyone worth there salt in a counter argument will bring up my avocation for Hampson at pick 28 come 32. And you should say something like "RFC have set a precedent of trading picks for players - and Karnezis at 50 odd is as good - if not better than Hampson at 32" Which in theory, would be a good counter-argument, however, the reality of that situation is ruckman now a-days are a different than almost any other position on the ground. Firstly and foremostly, there has generally been one ruckman with a pseudo-ruckman who rests forward and then pinch hits in the ruck. A vast majority (we are talking roughly 60% of all substitutions not made due to injury) is for the second ruckman halfway through the third quarter. Now again, remember that the cap has come in at 120, about 15 rotations below the league average. What does this mean? It means there will be forced "resting" of players in the forward half. This is why a second ruckman is important (what happens if Maric goes down? You ruck Vickery and who relieves him and how does our forward structure look?). Hampson, whilst not a perfect second ruckman for this role, can service it in the short to medium-term. Giving players like McBean, Griffiths and Elton time to develop. What I am saying is that experienced developed ruckman have more currency (justifiably) than a third tall.
Now, the counter-argument to that is why not keep the pick and develop a ruckman at that pick - or alternatively, develop a player for that position currently on our list. The players we have (I'd argue maybe 2, but I did list 3) are McBean, Griffiths and Elton. All of whom are not ready to help this team which 1.5 extra games and get us top 4 yet. Unless you move one forward, and make Vickery the third tall. But again, I do not think they are ready yet. Also, the currency for rucks in the AFL come draft time are not great. Grundy was a steal at 19 no doubt, but he slid to 19 for a reason. Very few teams are willing to take a ruckman in the first round because of the development that is required for them to compete in the AFL, let alone for a team that is looking to be top 4 and play Finals.
Ultimately, that's what it comes down too. Money and need. If we don't need them, or it is fiscally a poor move, then don't do it.

Karnezis
Gee even if he is worth a dabble but not for us we are locked and loaded
We have completely stuffed this up.
What a joke, he wouldn't be fit to tie Bo hanlons bootlaces, but ooh no we need to load up our side with bums that couldn't get a gig in a bottom 8 side..any more beaut ideas, wait I'll get some popcorn first :lol
-
Gee I don't know Einstein
Good third option up forward. Who will kick our goals if Jack goes down. U? It seems only a few of us have a clue on here, urself and that BJ fella are not 2 of them unfortunately.
Pick 50 is definitely worth a gamble and we could've had better picks had we traded out
Pretty petty to go for an individual attack simply because I disagree with you. But anyway -
We have the current listed at third forward (and this DOES NOT include resting ruckam - which will play a greater role next season with capped rotation):
Edwards, Elton, Griffiths, Knights (maybe) and McBean. My question to you is in two parts. Given the hypothetical situation above, if Jack does go down, is Karnezis more qualified than any of the above to step up? I remind you that this happened once last year, and whilst it was against GWS, we still kicked our highest score of the season. By a long way. By the way, this is someone who has played midfield in the Brisbane 2's for 3 years, and has played a total of how many games for Brisbane? Which has a fairly suspect forward line already. Keep in mind, McGuane (who wasn't in our best 22 come the end of the year) when up there to fill a role that Karnezis couldn't get a regular game in - at a worst side.
Second, whats the cap hit for us? Its obvious we are tight with the cap, and the fact that Karnezis would cost more to us in a dollar sense than pick 50. The reason Collingwood can pick up Adams, Jesse White and Karnezis? They lost approximately $2 million from their cap when they lost Shaw, Thomas, Didak, Johnson and Jolly. We have lost McGuane, but have re-signed Martin and Conca, whilst also grabbing Hampson and saving ourselves space to re-sign Ellis, Vlastuin etc in the coming years. We are also coming off signing in the last 18 months, Cotchin, Deledio, Riewoldt, Rance and Chaplin.
Now because you called me Einstein, heres what I'm going to do. Anyone worth there salt in a counter argument will bring up my avocation for Hampson at pick 28 come 32. And you should say something like "RFC have set a precedent of trading picks for players - and Karnezis at 50 odd is as good - if not better than Hampson at 32" Which in theory, would be a good counter-argument, however, the reality of that situation is ruckman now a-days are a different than almost any other position on the ground. Firstly and foremostly, there has generally been one ruckman with a pseudo-ruckman who rests forward and then pinch hits in the ruck. A vast majority (we are talking roughly 60% of all substitutions not made due to injury) is for the second ruckman halfway through the third quarter. Now again, remember that the cap has come in at 120, about 15 rotations below the league average. What does this mean? It means there will be forced "resting" of players in the forward half.

I would totally agree with all of this but Angus said you don't have a clue so maybe I shouldn't.
Oh stuff it +1 from me.

Haha against GWS. Give me a break
Griffiths well most on here laugh at the bloke
Bean well he is raw
Elton see Griffiths
I would take Collingwoods drafting strategy over yours just quietly
And bojangles Raines was getting game time at lions does that mean we should go for him. In case you forgot voss was their coach and what was he like at identifying talent
what you are both saying is Karnezis is not worth pick 50. Is that right cause he couldn't fit into a Voss led team? Docherty must be rubbish too, longer also

Karnezis is a gigantic potato. Yeah he's a nice size which makes a good prospect on paper. But it would be cheaper to place an A4 sheet of paper on the HFF to get the same output and they may even let us play an extra player.

Well said and thought out.
+2 from me.
Only issue for mine is that McGuane got injured and hence lost his spot to Edwards (who played well in the third fwd role) - if not for that, I dare suspect that McGuane may have stayed in the team.

Well said Jobba! +3 from me. As I have said before, no need to change for change's sake. Karnezis has shown very little after bursting onto the scene in 2011 Justin Plapp style.
He was going to be the next big thing and the fan hype was enormous. Now....ehh not so much...

Pick 50 for Karnezis is more than fair IMHO and we should make a play for him.

Why? And impact our TPP for a Magoo bound hack. If you are expecting Karnezis to be another Spangher surprise trade you can forget it.
Saw a server rack for $40 the other day. I said to my wife, "Look! A server rack for $40!!" She immediately asked if I would have a use for it? I said "ummm...not right now but I might in the future". Needless to say the $40 paid for a really nice lunch which was thoroughly enjoyable and the server rack is still sitting there.
Morale of the story, why spend money on something you will probably never use just because it is cheap.

The Pies have done it again, absolutely nailed the trade period.... nailed it....now they will do the same in the draft.....
We will never see them out of the 8, their succession planning and sustainability program is second to none...just like Sydney!!!!

The pies are a class act

we take a ruckman, who led the league in average hit outs to advantage and was equal 6th for contested marks, to give much needed support for maric, and now the same people who squealed over that now want to get Karnezis, who has done what?
stuff me, hampson had more contested marks in his last two games that Karnezis has for his career

Could very well miss it next year with the loss of Shaw and Daisy. As good as Grundy is too can he do it for more than 6 games and carry an entire ruck dept for a year. Last year everyone said the same thing with Lynch and he was poo, now they'll be saying it about White until they realise he is poo as well. They'll have the same issues as they had this year minus having any rebound out of defence. Unless Maxwell lifts his game. :whistle

pick 50 i said, nothing less. Would be happy for White and Hampson also at this range as that's what all 3 are worth
I value pick 32 over 50 and clearly you do also cause if i recall you didnt want to take Ball with a second round but third was okay.
:huh3

Karnezis will be a real good player at Collingwood. He was definately worth pick 50.

so your theory is its ok to take crap as long as you get it for a bargain?
Not sure if i ever said i was happy to take ball with a third round pick, but as I have explained once before when you bought up luke ball ( not that long ago either :huh), due to doing some research and now having information that i didnt have before, i have changed my view on the value of draft picks.
So, i would have thought, given recent discussions where i have said this directly to you and also argued that i dont value picks over 20 that much, it was clear that i dont value pick 32 that much over pick 50.
Obviously though, some things are not that clear to clouded minds.

Karnezis will be a good player at VFL Collingwood. He was definately worth rolling the dice with a late pick they weren't going to use in this crap draft.
Agree

We could have nailed it as well if Deledio left under free agency and we traded Rance.
Pick 12, 13 and straight swap for Adams, but we're missing a good backman and a good onballer.

Daniel can you hurry up and restore the natural order please.

Should chase Adams harder and offer pick 12 if necessary. Offer him more money.
Pick 12 is a good pick, but if we're going for another mid (most likely) why not take the risk (of getting a dud) out of the equation and grab a player like Adams with two years under his belt, a strong body, and a clearly very good talent. Worth pick 12 any day and the certainty of knowing he's a gun should make it a priority.

No. We've set our limit if he won't accept let it be. How's Conca going to feel watching Adams run around on an extra 100k or 300k over the life of their 3 year deals. Same price as Conca is fair, if he refuses then so be it. Move on, draft another player we like.

Karny is a wingman. I reckon you'd be performing some heavy suck work if it were him and not Hampson coming to Punt Road. ;D I'd take Karny. Wouldn't give up pick 28/32 for him though. I wouldn't give up that pick for Hampson either. Why? Because neither of them are worth it. Would happily take both at our club though.

i cant find any reason to get excited over hamster, but i can see why we took him.

as you said they need to suck it up.

well the jury remains well and truly out, will be up to them to prove otherwise, seem to recall a similar player from port top draftee ben Jacobs who went on to do SFA at NM ::)

Totally agree. Players contracts should mean SFA to other players. And if they are good enough they will get what's theirs..
Adams is better than both Conca and Ellis combined IMO and is easily worth pick 12. We get him and this trade period has been a success. Like someone else said, take the risk out of the equation.

I value pick 32 over 50 and clearly you do also cause if i recall you didnt want to take Ball with a second round but third was okay.
:huh3
so your theory is its ok to take crap as long as you get it for a bargain?
Not sure if i ever said i was happy to take ball with a third round pick, but as I have explained once before when you bought up luke ball ( not that long ago either :huh), due to doing some research and now having information that i didnt have before, i have changed my view on the value of draft picks.
So, i would have thought, given recent discussions where i have said this directly to you and also argued that i dont value picks over 20 that much, it was clear that i dont value pick 32 that much over pick 50.
Obviously though, some things are not that clear to clouded minds.
apology accepted :thumbsup
WTF are you on about?

Should chase Adams harder and offer pick 12 if necessary. Offer him more money.
Pick 12 is a good pick, but if we're going for another mid (most likely) why not take the risk (of getting a dud) out of the equation and grab a player like Adams with two years under his belt, a strong body, and a clearly very good talent. Worth pick 12 any day and the certainty of knowing he's a gun should make it a priority.
No. We've set our limit if he won't accept let it be. How's Conca going to feel watching Adams run around on an extra 100k or 300k over the life of their 3 year deals. Same price as Conca is fair, if he refuses then so be it. Move on, draft another player we like.
hows beams going to feel having adams on the same $$ as him if not slightly more? players need to suck it up, Adams is a gun and imo better than Conca
Probably pretty peeed off. Adams is far from a gun yet. He's a potential gun and getting paid more than he's worth. Conca will be sucking it up on a nice big contract at WC next time. And we'll be standing around trying to work out why.

Uncontracted Crows defender-midfielder Richard Tambling is in limbo.
Tambling, 27, will not know if he is returning to West Lakes for pre-season training until next week when Adelaide finally deals with its delistings.
Adelaide could “delist” fellow Richmond recruit Angus Graham, who emerged from last year’s trade period on a two-year contract as back-up for lead ruckman Sam Jacobs. He could be shuffled on to the Crows’ rookie list.

ESSENDON is baulking at a trade of picks as part of the deal to get Stewart Crameri to the Western Bulldogs.
The Dogs could secure the tall forward by giving Essendon picks 26 and 42, with the Bombers handing back its pick 48.
But the Bombers want to use 48 in another deal, believed to involve a Greater Western Sydney player.
With just three-and-a-half days to go in the trade period, Crameri could still walk out on the Bombers and enter the pre-season draft.

Adams and Collingwood still not a done deal, but close according to Scott Lucas??.
He did mention that there are other clubs out there that Adams has spoken to if the Pies deal doesn't go through.
From what I have heard, GWS want Shaw and 10 for Adams and 19.
Would love to see Collingwood stuck with Shaw :lol

Perception is a funny thing isn't it?
I rate Conca a lot higher than Ellis, a lot higher
So much so I'd trade Ellis to GWS for picks 1 or 2 without hesitation.... that's what i mean about the club being daring ;D
:cheers
-
Personally I thought Ellis was fantastic last season. Not every game but he was very good for a kid, a lot better with ball in hand than Conca. Conca is obviously harder. He's tough and Ellis is very much outside but that doesn't matter as long as he puts his head over it when it's his turn. He did that this year. Got involved more than 2012.
LMAO at it being daring to trade Ellis for pick 1 or 2 :lol He's a good player but that's ridiculous WP. GWS would be wanting more than that.
-
perception is one thing and reality is another, not sure what shawitzi your smoking WP
Conca is no where near the standard of Ellis.
Ellis is a very good player who will give A grade status a nudge in the coming years.
-
I'd agree with that , Ellis has a few more tricks up the sleeve, carries the ball, elite thumping kick and manages to find the pill a tad more. Conca is a slow burner and is continuing to improve , space bw the two right now though
-

I like Conca because I've never seen him pull out of a contest
As coach said Conca is "harder" and "tough", have been a number of times when I been concerned with Ellis not attacking the contest. Yes he has got better at it and it isn't as bad as it was early on. Agree he is a better kick than Conca but at the "hard it" and tackling stakes Conca is the better option right at the minute.
LMAO at it being daring to trade Ellis for pick 1 or 2 :lol He's a good player but that's ridiculous WP. GWS would be wanting more than that.
Yep you're probably right Coach, package him up with Morris or Foley and you'd easily get pick 1 or 2 ;D

Conca hasn't had a full pre season yet. He's on track for one around 2018-19

Word filtering through now that Brisbane have accepted West Coast's offer of pick 28 for Elliott Yeo.
News coming through from 3AW is that West Coast and Carlton may do a straight swap with a player for Josh Bootsma.
GWS' pick 48 is set to be sent to the Swans for Jed Lamb who was pick 21 in 2010. The Swans must either accept the deal or watch Lamb walk to the Giants in the PSD.

Ellis > Vlastuin > Conca IMO.
I don't think Conca's as tough as either of the other two, and certainly not as good by foot.

Vlas will be the best of the 3.
Ellis runs harder. Conca goes harder at the pill and his kicking will improve as he gets fitter.
Hard to really compare them as they are different players.

Vlas will be the best of the 3.
Absolutely agree with this

Garlett late would be ideal

I hope this is true.
Dave Astbury is a depth player at best. He isn't a great defender, not a great mark, and barely touches the footy when he plays. Will Thursfielld had more going for him. At least he could defend.
If we have a chance to get a half decent pick for him, or an upgrade on our pick 50 odd, which COULD maybe be an upgrade on one of our starting 22, I'm all for it.
We need to do something otherwise this FA and trade period has been a waste and other teams have moved ahead of us or at the very least caught up. . It's all good and well not to want to pay overs for players but if you don't improve your starting 22 at every opportunity you get left behind, and I personally don't think picking up Hampson has done that. So the way it's looking IMO, at the very best our starting 22 for next year will improve by one....if we are lucky.
I truly don't understand why we have been so quiet through this period.

What a lot of rot, his last 3 games he had 10, 15 and 17 possies. Sorry to let the facts get in way of a good yarn. This kid came back from a knee injury described as a train wreck with a number of complications along the way. It was a bloody milestone just to play again, so he s a mile ahead of expectations. He was just starting to find some form , however with finals looming there wasn't a hope in the world he could have got a gig in our dream team back half. Give the kid some time, we have another beauty on our hands :clapping

Pick 32 and Astbury might have landed Longer
-
Tone you don't think being another tall who has been injury riddled his best might be yet to come?
No.
I must admit I haven't been a fan since nearly day one.
Do you?
-
Before he got injured they threw him into the deep end with sharks
He has just started to show some real potential and is a quality person
I would hope they wouldn't let him go at all and if we do not without very good compensation
By the way Leppa was his coach !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Perhaps we're trying to get one of the 2nd round picks floating around in the Polec trade talks?
The trade has complicated Port Adelaide's efforts to secure Brisbane midfielder Jared Polec, with the Power tied in to a proposed club deal that collapsed on Tuesday night before talks resumed on Wednesday morning.
Under that deal, the Giants would have swapped picks 21 and 22 for Port Adelaide's 14, with the Power moving one of those selections on to the Lions for Polec.
Port Adelaide is looking at other options to satisfy Brisbane, which has all but finalised deals sending Elliot Yeo to West Coast and Sam Docherty to Carlton. The Lions want picks 25 and 41 from St Kilda for ruckman Billy Longer, but the Saints are only willing to move 25.
One Power option is to send pick 14 to the Gold Coast in exchange for the Suns' picks 20 and 27, a swap the clubs have discussed.
http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/shaw-sweetener-secures-pies-swap-20131023-2w12r.html
Okay starting with the picks everyone has now (assuming Brisbane gain pick 28 for Yeo and pick 33 for Docherty):
Richmond: 12, 50
Port Adel: 14, 34
Brisbane: 7, 28, 29, 33, 45
Gold Coast: 5, 20, 27, 43
GWS: 1, 2, 21, 22, 48
We swap picks 12 & 50 for the Suns' picks 20, 27 & 43 (or the Giants' picks 21, 22 & 48)
Then we pass on those 3 picks for Port's picks 14, 34 (Port ontrades one of these picks we give them for Brisbane's Polec)
We convince Brisbane to do a goodwill trade for McGuane for what will be at best their sixth draft pick (45). It could be at worst their seventh/eighth pick if they trade Longer for St Kilda's pick 25 (+41) so presumably they won't be using it anyway.
That would then leave us with picks 14, 34, 45.
Richmond: 14, 34, 45
Port Adel: 20, 43, Polec
Brisbane: 7, 25, 27, 28, 29, 33, 41?, McGuane ..... (lose Polec, Longer, Yeo, Docherty)
Gold Coast: 5, 12, 50
or
Richmond: 14, 34, 45
Port Adel: 20, 43, Polec
Brisbane: 7, 22, 25, 28, 29, 33, 41?, McGuane ..... (lose Polec, Longer, Yeo, Docherty)
GWS: 1, 2, 12, 50
Thoughts?

Pick 32 and Astbury might have landed Longer
Why would we want longer mate we have picked up Hampson there would be no use in doing that.. Astbury keep him for the year and see how it turns out there are worse players still on the list then him that we could try and off load..
GO U TIGERS

Deal seems too straightforward to work, there are not enough clubs involved.
Thanks for your sarcasm :laugh:.
I didn't think it was too far-fetched given it's based on what is being reported in the media (regarding the Polec trade talk) plus C4[2]Yo'DooR's rumour (who's not one to make up stuff).
-
Not sure if it counts as an "official" source - but Stewart Crameri's sister has said on Facebook that a deal has been done between the Dons and Dogs. Take that with a grain of salt until official confirmation.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Rob Waters is reporting that Collingwood and Brisbane are set to straight swap Jackson Paine for Patrick Karnezis.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Ardrian Dodoro: “He’ll come the list as a delisted free agent on Nov 1 and we’re looking forward to getting Paul Chapman on the list next season.”
- Trade Radio
----------------------------------------------------------------
Brisbane - a few rumours suggesting Jackson Paine is up in Brisbane and that the lions could nab David Astbury from the Tigers. McGuane will be picked up as a delisted free agent.
Richmond - May be trading Davis Astbury but that also seems unlikely to happen.

Well Einstein's how else does he leave? He's bloody contracted and we will bend them over or keep old Davis. :clapping

Brisbane Lions and St Kilda shape as major factors on the final day of the trading period, with the Lions set to acquire premiership ruckman Trent West from Geelong
While the Saints will land Billy Longer from Brisbane.
St Kilda is also well placed to snare defender [/b]Josh Bruce[/b] from Greater Western Sydney.
Carlton is making a strong bid for Sydney's Andrejs Everitt, having offered him more money.

The Trade Period will finally finish up at 2pm today.
It would be nice if we are surprised by us doing something on the final day but I'd doubt it.

If the club only leaves us with pick 12 then its been a poor effort IMHO. They needed to try and get another pick between 15 and 20 and at the very least a 2nd round pick from somewhere else. Hampson and pick 12 at the end of this campaign would be a fail for mine. We are nowhere near ready to challenge for top 4 and that type of recruiting isnt good enough to get us up the ladder. We finished 7th.... people shouldnt forget that and 7th isnt good enough.
-
I'll be disappointed if we don't get back in to the 2nd round
-
I'll be disappointed if we don't make top 4 next year.
That's the only way were going to find out if we failed or not this trade period!

Pick 12 Sam Docherty, Pick 5 Jared Polec and pick 7 Billy Longer are all going to net Brisbane a pick in the 20s.
For us to get a pick between 15-20 we'd have to give up one of our young guns. How else are we going to get that pick?
The only thing I can think of is pick 12 for St Kilda's pick 18 and 19, even then I think we'd need to throw in a player.

We have our first trade of the day and it is a very minor one. Gold Coast Suns exchanged round 3 pick (currently 43) to West Coast for its yet to be activated round 3 Suns compensation pick. This trade looks as if it's been made with an eye towards the 2014 draft from the Suns' perspective.
Smart trading From @WestCoastEagles. They started with picks 6, 28, 44 and now have 11, 31, 43, 49. Haven't lost a lot to gain Yeo.

I don't think we're even there today
-
I don't think we're even there today
considering that most of the people working in this area at the club are on 6 figure salaries and that we are paying them to do a job I think thats poor if they arent even there. Hundreds of thousands of dollars are being paid by the members to these guys and all they wanted to do was get Hampson and they gave over a 2nd rounder for that. I think its a complete waste of money. Anyone can just go and pay over the odds to get someone like Hampson. We are paying these employees so they can do good deals not get Hampson and leave us in a crap draft position.
-
We ha e happy with picks 50 and 70 8)
-
they are all probably down at a church somewhere praying the AFL gives us an easy draw coz if we get a difficult draw we wont make the 8 let alone challenge for the top 4.
-

Better of not even using those poo picks
-
We mustn't rate the draft past the first round. Not much point in getting a second rounder if we would take the same player we would get anyway with the third rounder.
Fair enough. That's the club's assessment. I like how they are firm in their strategy.

Does anyone rate Carlton's trading this year?

Because we spent 1 whole year putting together the super deal to bring the great Shaun Hampster to the Tiges. Dont knock it! Do you know how much time and effort went into dishing off a second round pick for the Hampster. Some of our supporters dont understand how hard they work down at Tigerland. They couldnt sleep at night worried that they were gonna miss out on the Hampster. Sheesh. Youd think our supporters would understand we dont have enough time to work harder and do other deals for the club and lastly dont fret we have pick 12 and pick 98 or something. We will get superstars here!
-
Or because we think $300,000 a year for a 32 year old who played 7 games last year is a bit steep.

Rob Waters @RobWaters10 - Andreas Everitt deal to Carlton stalled. Swans want second pick the Blues offerred third round.
30 mins to go.
If we were to do anything (which is unlikely) then it would be targeting one of Brisbane's six picks inside the first 35 --- 7, 22, 25, 28, 33, 34.
-
Collingwood are probably gonna have 2 picks in the national draft 6 & 10 and they will be out of the draft. This draft probably has no more than the first round in terms of player quality.
-
Only likely possible trades to occur in the last 15 mins according to SEN:
Travis Varcoe (whispers)
Andreas Everitt
Jed Lamb
Josh Mellington
Sam Darley
---------------------------------------------
Tony Armstrong will be delisted by Sydney and Collingwood will pick him up next week in the delisted free agency period.

Blues have traded pick 32 to the Swans for Andreas Everitt and pick 39.

All over folks!
As expected nothing done on the Tiger front :P.

FARCICAL from our point of view

This draft probably has no more than the first round in terms of player quality.
so then is there really that much difference between 32 and 50?

theres a big difference between 32 and 50. The difference is at 32 you may get someone who is competitive at the level and at pick 50 you havent got a hope.

based on what?
besides if there is no more than the first round in terms of player quality, doesnt that mean that there is no or very quality after?
In other words, anything after the first round is chooklotto, which is what i have been saying all along.

Norf supporters are now calling in and saying that because West Coast traded pick 6, they should be allowed to get Luke McDonald for a 2nd rounder :rollin

Leftovers:
Aaron Cornelius has been delisted by Brisbane.
GWS will take ex-Swan Jed Lamb with pick 1 in the Preseason Draft.
Darren Jolly is still looking for a new club. St Kilda have expressed interest.
-
Question for you geezers,
Darren Jolly. If we could have got him for 1-2 years at 300k or less (given he doesn't have clubs lining up for him he doesn't have much choice) would you take him over Hampson? I know I would. But maybe I am missing something.

Wouldn't mind Rookie listing him!

I regularly go to Collingwood games because I'm mentally not all there and Jolly is done. The King Island Champ would jump all over him. :shh

The King Island Champ has jumped all over the Big O and Hampster but no one seems to mind ;D Yeah Jolly looked old when I saw him play this year but he's been carrying injuries. He could still give decent service if the body was right, IMO.

Maybe. But he looks like an amputee with his limbs taped on to get on the park. Big IF that he'd be over those injuries. Also, he's a similar type to Maric. The club wanted an athletic ruck to complement him. They certainly have got that. Whether he was the right option only time will tell.

Anyone wondering why we missed out on the tantalising ruck/small forward prospect from North Melbourne, Taylor Petrenko, here is the explanation:
Hi wayne
Apparently Taylor did not have an escape clause in his contract an oversight by his management
therefore North would not release him.
Nevertheless North offered him $250,000 and on this occasion did not have an option.
Otherwise he and Richmond were ready to sign.
:lol

so we dipped out on the big pterodactyl Taylor Petrenko. I am shattered.

I've been following the Taylor Petrenko saga very closely, and like most people, I was blindsided by the last minute revelation that Taylor had no escape clause in his contract. Indeed it was an oversight by his management! I'm no legal expert but Taylor Petrenko should be suing his management for loss of earnings. This was a big miss for our marketing dept too. I for one would have been first in line for a Taylor Petrenko or Jim Boogie guernsey.
Great stuff wayne and Tiga :thumbsup

I have just had this cleared up, not just from my source, but the son of the source, whom I just met. Son of source is best mates in the world with Petrenko, Conti and Le Cras.
Petrenko was really looking forward to coming to Richmond, but he'll play out his 1 year of contract at Norf and then go and play in the NRL.
