I thought it said ALMOST official...

They said ALMOST before the news but not in the news IIRC.

If we have to give up anymore we are giving up too much and Master Sheeds has done it again. The first round picks are late ones when we wanted a top 10.

Im not that happy......while Im glad to see the back of those two 'kreata' (translation: pieces of meat or useless) then we could have snared a Top 10 pick. Ohhh well just shows their true value I guess.......

Agreed MT, The pick better not be ours, the deals bad enough as it is.

Sheedy, what can you say, he looks like he may have done it again.

Can't we just throw Blumfield in as well?  :thumbsup

I'd rather we gave them blumfield than a pick, yes.

I'd be most peeed off if this deal goes through.  We have to get at leat a top ten pick plus another first rounder for Ottens.......no 2 ways about it.  We gave away picks 6 and 20 for Brown last year FFS !!!, or does Miller have a short memory.  

Gaining pick 32 for Zantuck is also a bad deal, he would be worth more in a player/player swap....probably could have used him to secure Jolly or Simmonds.

Not happy, and yet again Sheedy shows all the amatures how its done.

Miller, you're not earning your keep mate !!
Does anyone have half an idea on anything?

I say get rid of sheedy and deal exclusively with the cats!

Top 10 pick and 16 as well as 32 then we might be talking...

Zantuck for 30.

Looks like this will be the trade:

Richmond Gain: Pick 14, 16, 30
Richmond Lose: Ottens, Zantuck

Geelong Gain: Ottens
Geelong Lose: Pick 16, 32, Wojinski

Essendon Gain: Zantuck, Wojinski, pick 32
Essendon Lose: Pick 14, 30

Not confirmed of course  :help

How will they get a top ten pick for us?
They have listed about 15 of their players as untouchable so their
is no way they can get a top ten pick unless that attitude changes


I would love a top  ten pick but i can't see how we can get it ,
only chance is if sydney get desperate enough for otto and
give one of their top liners away for one..

If we dont deal with sydney we may find ourselves in a trade war with them for saddington, difficult to say seems like they might come in with a late deal whch will include that prized top 10 deal! :thumbsup

No mention of any trades in the 3pm news  :-\.

As this deal is back to being just speculation, I'll merge this thread with trade tidbits one.
