Assuming Baker selects WC pick 3 has to be the mainstay of the deal so what about this?
Pick 3 to Richmond plus WC' future second. 
Pick 10 to WC (what we get for Shai assuming he leaves). 
So a pick swap so they keep their first rounder.  We get a future second.

Lol the wishful thinking is endless. They will not be giving up or splitting pick three.

They may offer up whatever it is they get for Barass.

WCE won't be parting with 3 unless Bolton is in the deal

No idea what they'll get but reckon they will want at a minimum a 1st rounder and possible a 2nd rounder. Contracted player, senior player in a very young list, might envelope b3 I  their leadership group

Sort of sounds familiar doesn't it ;D

So if we assume hawks finish the year with a pick 10 add 3 via FA and Academy we end up with 13.

If hawks go all the way, or come close eagles can go get stuffed. That pick won't be worth our time.

Hawks will get bounced in the first week of finals.

Agreed TK. They remind me of us circa 2014.
"The money might have been better. But, at the end of the day, Richmond showed faith in me. It's only fair that now we're 18th on the ladder, I show the faith back in the club and do everything I can to put them in front. In the end, I'm stoked I made the decision to stay. I f***ing love this club”

Unless WC are prepared to cough up pick 3 - which they won't unless another club gets involved  - we need him to choose the Shockers... :shh

absolutely no surprise. If he was going to stay he would have re-signed months ago

Understand the decision but it still incredibly disappointing

We selected him when no one wanted him, so it is still a kick in the guts to Club that took a chance on him and the fans who adore they way he goes about it

This. Loyalty is finished

Upgrade broady to the leadership group is what I would do.
