Patrick Dangerfield

[daisycutter 29,303]

new bosses though !!

no coach though

[The Song Formerly Known As 6,479]

Wow, this rumour really died in the ass didn't it.

[PaulRB 6,297]

Calm before the storm...

[The HuLK 139]

If collingwood get pick 4 for beams , there going to be going hard at Danger.

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

Wow, this rumour really died in the ass didn't it.

We need to wait for the trade period to begin.

It's unlikely but could still happen.

[Jaded No More 67,626]

I find this comment interesting. Sounds like we know we'll trade at least one of pick 2 or 3 (assuming we get pick 3 for Frawley, which we should and Roos sounds pretty angry about the whole free agency debacle, so I'm sure we will), which means we probably already know what deal we wanna do, which could also mean that we are confident we'll get Danger or somebody equally good.

Paul Roos says the club won't bring in too many young players in this year's recruiting period

[Adam The God 29,327]

Would love Danger but IMO Pick 2 & 3 is overs, one of those picks and a player is okay (lets face it if he is leaving next year it is a better deal than they will get now and Pick 2 is a chane at Petracca for them)

I would also consider dealing with GWS Pick 2 and a player or Pick 2 & 3 + player for Pick 4 for a Shiel and Treloar. We need to build depth and whilst Danger is a gun I think we would get Treloar and Shiel for less money than Danger would command and with Pick 4 still think we would get Brayshaw.

I agree, mate. I just can't see GWS giving up their two best mids for more draft picks. They are seemingly keen to spread the age of their list, but they won't give up both of them.

Or it could mean they'll look at all options to get in senior players.... You've just assumed its Danger (extreme positive to extreme negative view haha)

Look I hope he comes but I doubt it, Anywho I don't think anything is going to seriously happen until this thread = 100 pages (just like the clark, frawley and roos threads)

I'd be happy with just Brayshaw from the draft and use all the other picks to bring in more experience

It might not be Danger, but I doubt we're just gonna throw Pick 2/3 on the table and take the best deal

We surely have a plan in mind, which is why Roos is so confidently declaring that we won't bring in many young players this year.

I agree, but we are just guessing atm.

It doesn't necessarily mean we will trade pick 2 or 3 or the combination either though. We could just trade late round picks for Harry L and Frost??? There's no solid evidence to suggest what the MFC will do atm.

Anyway i do think you're right - I'd be surprised if we have 2 top 10 picks by the end of the trade period

Brayshaw and Stretch will do just fine, thanks!

what about P-2, 3, & 22; for Shiel, Jaksch, Pick-4 & Frost ?

[Grand New Flag 3,227]

Roos just said at a draft camp interview which is on another thread that we would not be offering pick 2 & 3 for Dangerfield. He made comments about how players would be traded the year before their contract ended to avoid FA and said if Dangerfield decided to leave that we with many other clubs would be chasing him.

With his own hand doesn't count though.

Don't be so precious Ethan. One's hand has neither unrealistic expectations nor the need for post coital small talk.

[McQueen 17,864]

If Adelaide don't get a commitment from PD within the first couple of days of trade period they will offer him up. Without a commitment he will just be another Frawley and walk to a flag contender next season.

Or Collingwood.

Hopefully Melbourne.

... with appropriate compensation, which would be first round. Not as if they'll lose him for nothing.

[whatwhat say what 22,086]

not if the afl take away free agency compensation!

[McQueen 17,864]

... with appropriate compensation, which would be first round. Not as if they'll lose him for nothing.

Of course but I doubt it will be nowhere near as good the offer from us and unless the Crows think they're in top 4 contention then you'd reckon they'd move him.

[PaulRB 6,297]

I like the way Goodwin said "If players of Patty’s calibre were keen on that, then we’re certainly very open to the idea of trying to get someone in over the free agency period at some stage over the next few years."

Meaning if we don't get him next year we'll have another go (along with many others) next year...

[hoon1 43]

I wrote in to the Sammy's who were doing the trade talk on the HS website about the Dangerfield trade, they seemed to think that it was still a high possibility for the reasons we have mentioned about Adelaide's compensation next year. According to them Dangerfield is still a fair chance to move this trade period

And next year I'd expect we'll be significantly behind the other clubs (who'll no doubt be led by Hawthorn, Sydney and Geelong) in terms of attractiveness for Paddy and we'll have lost our edge.

This is the point. If we don't get him this year, our chance is prob gone.
