Would people be willing to offer up a first rounder and compo pick for Zac Clarke? its likely what it would cost us minimum.

Minimum? LMFAO
You work for Freo? What the eff are you basing that cost on?

2nd rounder and a player. Easy to make crap up ay bro.

A first rounder for Zac would be the starting point of any discussions if and when they occur. It is a compromised and supposedly below par draft. They will not let him go for anything less, that's if they even consider it. Why would they, he is signed for 3 years.

As for a priority pick AS WELL, no way, no deal, it won't happen. If we win on Sunday, that PP will be worth more than the first round pick!

Yer if he was uncontracted. He has 2 years left. U think they would give him up for less than 2 first rounders? Im not saying we should do it. Just saying thats what Freo would be asking.

So in all honesty who the hell are we likely to get or go for?? Seriously every freaking year we talk or crap on about these players that we are never likely to get or do get. They always end up somewhere else.

Houli and Grigg named us as their preferred choice who has named us so far.....??????

Mitch Clark to Freo on a $$$ multi-year contract if they can do the trade according to Denham in the Australian.

some are suggesting that we should be looking at the spare ruckmen that Gold Coast have got!

3 way deal seems a natural progression of this....

M Clark to Freo
Z Clark to Richmond
Richmond pick 18 (after our north win) OR second round + Foley to Brisbane.

I dont understand why freo would want Mitch Clarke, but if true there'll be spillage - Griffin will probably be looking for a new home.

If the Tiges can talk Z Clarke into wanting to become a tiger (like they did with Houli and Grigg), by promising 22 games next year, he gets to return home, then I am sure we can get him a little cheaper then a first round. Personally I think our second pick would be sufficient in the trade anyway. He is not their #1 and they prefer Griffin over him so our 2nd rounder in a straight swap is what I would offer.

We are talking about Z Clarke, not Sandilands . . .

Two things.

1) I would have thought Z Clarke has shown just as much as Griffin. So it might cost us more than we think. But in any event, Sandilands and M Clarke would be their starting rucks, so I guess theyd be keen to offload 1 of the 2.

2) Our first pick in the draft will be around the 14-18 mark, depending on the result on Friday. Keep in mind its a very watered down draft too, so a pick 18 this year is akin to a pick 30 or more in an uncompromised draft. So a first rounder isnt as good as what we think it is. I'd rather hang on to it too but I'd definately deal it for Z Clarke.

Like i said earlier he is contracted for 2 years and is best 22 and will be best 22 next year. Mitch Clark will be a FF not a ruck there. They aint letting him go. And again i said thats the sort of thing they will be asking. Not what we should be paying or offering. Its massive overs but Freo can ask for what they want.
