gee i hope the Pies take tarrant as that will increase Thursfield's currency with Freo.

Freo can take Thursfield and in return we can take the Pies first round draft pick and Freo can have Anthony :thumbsup

Three first rounders in a compromised draft could be the acorns that grow into the giant oak tree. :cheers
Can be done. Tigers make it happen. :thumbsup
So

Pies: Tarrant for pick 25 + Anthony
Freo: Thursty + Anthony for Tarrant
Richmond: pick 25 for Thursty

That's great for us (where do we sign  ;D ) but not sure if the other two would go for it totally. We probably would have to throw in a later pick in there to make it work.

Unfortunately it's being reported that the Pies pick 25 is going to GC for Andy Krak.

Richmond defender Will Thursfield yesterday moved a step closer to kick-starting his career with Fremantle. Thursfield, who is contracted for another year at Punt Road, met Fremantle coach Mark Harvey last week and is keen to make the move west.

It is believed the Tigers would accept a second-round national draft pick, at this stage in the high 40s, in return.

Currently Freo have pick 38 in the 2nd round but with all the compo picks used that'll be pushed out to around 46 or so.

What is the Hawk's 2nd rounder?
Surely Dimma can grease a few of his old mates?

1 pick before Freo.

Here's an idea.  What if Collingwood trade their Fraser compensation pick, which will be either the same as the Bock one or the same as the Nathan Krak one (straight after the club's 2nd round selection) for Tarrant.  Freo could then trade that pick for Thursfield.

The one question I have is, if it's the same compensation as the Nathan Krak pick, would we get the compensation pick that Collingwood would have received, or would the "straight after the club's 2nd round selection" shift to our pick?

I'd rather bundle Thursfield with a pick to try and move up the draft order

Trade Week radio saying interest in Thursfield in the last hour. No details except they mentioned Freo and Hawthorn which we already knew about.

Pelchen just said in regards to Thursfield, Hawthorn have decided not to go down that path. So the Hawks are out.

I must admit, with the benefit of hindsight, I'm very glad we didn't get Pelchen

absolutely, prick got lucky with North taking it up the clacka dry years ago and has been living off it ever since, is ridiculously difficult to deal with and not in a positive way for the hawks, other teams dislike him and play hardball

Freo's discussions with Richmond (Will Thursfield) and Collingwood (Chris Tarrant) have held up proceedings ...

Sounds like any trade involving Thursty will be late in the trade week if there's a stand-off.

Pelchen had nothing to do with the Nathan Thompson trade for #10 & #26 as he didn't get to the club until 2005
He did to the Jonathan Hay trade for pick #18 & Nathan Lonie to Port Adelaide for #14 which were both daylight robbery but all clubs have wised up after trades like this

Since then he's done nothing special, traded away Spida Everitt for a 2nd rounder which was pretty much expected, nothing for 2 years then traded away their first 2 rounds of picks plus Mark Williams in 2009 for Burgoyne & Gibson.

His only decent draft early selection since arriving in 2005 was Cyril Rioli.
