Trade week expectations?

[mightytiges]

Expect a lot of unhappy ferral supporters

what do you mean jack?

no trades ?

I read that as a popular Tiger with supporters might be traded.

By the way I forgot to ask, any of you guys think we should consider downgrading our 1st pick, 8 to me seems to be pretty similar to say 20 in terms of quality so if Krak wants to go the eagles would we consider say 8 and Krakouer for 16 and Rosa. Not that the eagles would go for it I wouldnt think but Im interested to know if any of you would support it in general. Personally Id do it for a Rosa type player.

Nup. Collingwood did something similar in 2004 and they missed out on Jordan Lewis for Chris Egan. I'd rather we back ourselves to pick the best kid at 8.

Yeah I read it that way too - gets back to my question which player?

I can think of a couple that I wouldn't be surprised if they ended up as trade bait.

The fact is for us to get anything decent, that is of a decent value ( eg a pick in the top 5) we'd have to give up something of value in a trade

Trading one of Cogs or Tuck would get supporters very upset but they would have value. 

One club I would keep an eye on is the Saints. They appear to think they just need to top up and with no senior coach setting a clear direction they may be one club that may do something dumb during trade week.

Any serious offer for Tuck, Coughlan and Krakouer needs to be looked at and if all 3 are traded then so be it.

[WilliamPowell]

Yeah I agree with those 2 but I'd also throw Hyde in there as well plus the usual suspects.

Perhaps Jack is saying the feral supporters will be upset if the usual suspects are not traded

How a club can go into trade week and this weeks draft camp with no coach is mind boggling I must say.

And let's be honest you cannot let the the assistants run things because they could be unemployed as soon as a new coach is appointed - so how they can even try and make list decisions let alone trades is beyond belief forget about it not shwoing one shred of logic.

Saints = DUMB & DUMBER  

Couldn't happen to a nicer club

The usual suspects unless they are uncontracted or paid out won't be going anywhere. They don't have decent trade value.

If you think the uproar about A. Kellaway was good. Wait till trade week !

[Rodgerramjet]

Coughlan
Richardson
Tuck
Hyde
Newman, maybe foley or Polo also

As long as it's not Tambling...I'd have to kill the cat

I think you can dismiss the following players.  Richo, Cogs, Johnson, J Bowden, Deledio, Simmonds, Raines and Polo.  (Gasper is also contracted)

Just my opinion.

Who does that leave in the top 10?

1 - Kane Johnson (226)
2 - Andrew Raines (223)
3 - Troy Simmonds (215)
4 - Joel Bowden (204)
5 - Kayne Pettifer (186)
6 - Greg Tivendale (172)
7 - Matthew Richardson (164)
8 - Patrick Bowden (160)
9 - Dean Polo (152)
10 - Shane Tuck (151)

?

Oops

[Jackstar]

Dean Polo debut in Round 8 ?
Finished ahead of Tuck in B & F.
Would think that Tuck would be pretty worried about things at the moment

Some people have talked about getting Rosa in trade week.

After hearing Worsfold last night "on the couch" he really rates him and unless they had a major fall out i couldnt see them parting ways.

Stranger things have happened.
