Deledio off to GWS in exchange for future first & third round picks [confirmed]

Gee - I thought trade period finished on Thursday at 2pm.

The way you guys carry on its all over.

If they stuff it up after that then fair enough.

But you guys are way OTT with the Chicken Little hysteria.

With 3 days to go.....

Yep heaps of time left.  Dan and Blair can press the snooze button a few more times

If we only spoke about facts this forum wouldn,'t exist, but you are correct

[tony_montana]

I thought it was being announced today?

[The Machine]

Mmmmm this was the info i received last night but it doesn't look likely at this stage.

[Chuck17]

We should get special dispensation from the AFL to force opposition clubs to do trades that we want

Don't panic, There's still 5 hours and 15 minutes to go

Anthony Hudson on SEN just before still reckons the Lids trade will be done in the end.

[WilliamPowell]

Rumour is Geelong can't afford Lids' full annual salary (similar to Selwood & Dangerfield's) and so if a trade is to be done, we would need to pay part of Lids' salary for 2017.

Or Lids could take a paycut and restructure his current deal.

I'd agree to paying some of his salary for next season just move him on and hold onto pick 27

Too bad the academy points mean stuff all for us unless we wheel and deal with GWS to upgrade picks but they only have 2 (too high to get) or 15 (not worth giving up two picks in the twenties for)

There are other clubs who have academies and other clubs that want the points

[WilliamPowell]

On the contrary

I want more blokes traded out but until these 2 deals are done nothing else will happen

Sadly

Wasn't "DanTheMan" a former player manager? Wasn't all the talk that because he knows the ins & outs of player contract negotiations he'd be able to easily weave his magic and get deals done more effectively & efficiently than most in the AFL? 


What has this dud done for us since he's been at the club besides resigning dud players that no one wants & negotiating the Yarran deal last year? 

Is he just another one of Gale's mates that needed a job?

Cats waiting on Richmond to get pick 30 from goldcoast. Deal will be deledio and 30 for caddy and 42.

So it's pick 6 and deledio for Prestia, Caddy and 42. Could have done better but I'm not too unhappy honestly. Lids is worth nothing to us in his current health and pick 6 is only potential. Prestia and caddy are both good players.

Go to draft with 27 our first pick. Shame about this regardless of the risks...

[georgies31]

That's embarrassing first pick at 27 considering our bad year and list at the moment this club never learns.
