The Trade/Draft Rumour Mill

[Steve13 457]

A thought,

We have sounded out Adelaide re Vince and Lyons

Could it be a case of if Sylvia compo is 22 we get Vince, if it is 38 we get Lyons.

[Brayshaw Self 847]

I don't see why GWS won't just give up pick 20 for Vince now if they are really keen on him. Unless we give up a player and pick 21/38 or whatever the compo will be, I doubt we are in the box seat

[ignition. 1,477]

Excuse my french but fook me the MFC are trading incredibly well.

Michie for a fourth rounder and Tyson with pick 9 for essentially pick 2 and 20 (and the later pick trade).

I am astounded and am becoming overwhelmed with confidence in our newly structured club.

P.S Let's just hope Freeman slides to 9 and we can secure Vince the Sylvia componsation.

I don't think GWS are that interested in Vince right now to be honest and I think his preferred destination is MFC anyway?

[Norm Smith's Curse 2,602]

He says he's got nothing

[Norm Smith's Curse 2,602]

We were rumoured somewhere to have offered Vince a three year deal so you'd think he'd be keen.

I really also rate Lyons so hoping he can be persuaded although I've read on here and heard on SEN that he isn't keen on leaving Adelaide.

Another grammar boy?

Wtf?

[CBDees 3,167]

How do we manouvre to pick up Zac Jones with our committment to Vince with the Compo pick? Surely our later pick #53 will be too late.

Who says we want him?

[olisik 4,060]

Trade blease Tapscott Dunn Jetta Strauss Nicholson for a pick in 20s to snare Jones.

Maybe add Magner to.

Anyone having troubles with trade radio?

[CBDees 3,167]

Anyone having troubles with trade radio?

yes it is not receiving!

Yeah it's in and out. Besides the usual problems that Barrett's head has reached massive proportions after North getting Dal Santo

[Ouch! 2,267]

The [censored] Barrett just said that he can't work out what MFC are doing with Pick 2 going to GWS for Tyson etc, and that Dom wasn't the type of player that we were trying to lure with pick 2.

Thinks it's a huge win for the GWS, but not so for us.

I think it's a win win.... Wallace (for what his opinion is worth) reckons that if Tyson was in this draft he would be right up the top again. So we have traded 2 for a player that would probably be worth the same in this draft (but with a couple of years worth of preseason) we upgraded 20 to 9, and the other upgrade for loose change.

How did we lose exactly? Both clubs would like this trade for different reasons!

He had to get one right!

[whatwhat say what 22,949]

Is Barrett eulogising north and their trading as well?

Gee, what a surprise.

Omg [censored] barratt reckons we could be repeating last years effort for getting Dom Tyson.. FMD.

Wallace reckons superstar O Rourke is ahead of Tyson in the midfield for GWS..

[monoccular 17,576]

There's mutterings at hq about doing away with compo for teams that lose free agents.

I hate free agency.

I hate hq even more than you hate free agency

Is that the same Wallace who did so well with drafting and development at Ninthmond?

[Bossdog 2,002]

I just don't know why people care what Barrett says about our club.....The success or failure will be known in a few years.....The same as every trade or draft pick will be for all the clubs.....

[Ouch! 2,267]

I heard him the other day saying that when he was at Richmond, they had 5 picks in the top 20, and now there is only 1 of those there, but rather than him taking part of the blame, he kinda made the call that 'Your list management doesn't always get it right'

[Still Waiting 94]

Wallace not only needs a throat transplant, he needs a brain implant!

[Demon_JB 1,385]

I wish Wallace would input about what clubs WOULDN'T do in regards to drafting, not what they SHOULD do.

Terry Wallace "Im thinking club-A should trade X player to X club and pick up Y draft pick in return which I would pick on player Z in this year draft.. I would do this, therefore clubs should ASTRAY from doing this also"

Mahoney up soon on trade radio.

He also said he wouldn't have taken the Tigers job if he knew their financial position. Yet after his contract finished they were in a worse place financially.

No doubt their recruiting was rubbish. They reportedly recruited Jarrad Oakley-Nicholls without seeing him play and took a long time to realise he was dyslexic. But there development was just as bad. All 5 they picked showed talent at one stage but never kicked on.
