Finally, some facts in this shitshow of a thread/trade

    If I was Freo I'd be doing the following:

    Pick 11 & 23 to GWS for Lobb and pick 14

    Neale & pick 49 to Brissy for Pick 5, 2019 2nd round & pick 41

    Pick 5 & 14 to Melb for Hogan

    We can then send 5 & 32 to GC for May and pick 24

    The only issue was Lobbe. Freo want Lobb and i dare say pick 11-20 will get it done, currently they're rejecting 5+23 from Bris. My idea is simply to leave Freo pick 11, we take Bris 5 + 2019 first round pick, they get Neale + The pick/player that gives them fair value for losing a 2019 1st round. Bris would back themselves to finish with pick 8-10 anyway with Neale on board.

    Thats fine, then Freo should start 'negotiations' in good faith with the clubs that can help this get done.

    Do you think that with the way Melb and Bris are being stuffed around by Freo, that they give a damn about how Freo is able to land Lobb?

    Ok, so the current state of things (after 280 odd pages) is that Freo are rejecting an offer from Brisbane that is significantly superior than what they are prepared to offer Melbourne for Hogan. We all know the facts that Hogan is younger, a key forward capable of 50-60 goals a season compared to a very good mid, but there are dozens of very good mids in the competition to be fair, most clubs have 3-4 very good mids. How many 50-60 goal forwards to these clubs have. How many do Freo have, or have they had since Pav retired? 

    The problem is that Freo seem ignorant to how desperately they need Hogan!

    Agreed. Lobb is worth pick 23.

    Club supporters overrate their own players and undervalue those from other clubs. 

    GWS will demand a first round pick for Lobb. 10  - 16 range.

    Bell has the intelligence of a dropped cumquat. He's an utter dipsh*t and it's both laughable and terrifying he is employed in his position.

    Hopefully someone around him talks some sense into him so he doesn't destroy that already pathetic waste of a club further. Their list is in real trouble, and he's not doing them any favors at present.

    I agree his value in trade terms would be higher than 23. I reckon he’s an average player though.

    From 2011-2015 I was the opposite of this.

    We are trading a 23 year old possible champion forward, for a 27 year old defender, who will probably play on him when the teams meet.

    I agree with the bit about club fans over/undervaluing certain players.

    But Lobb hasn't done an awful lot. Shown some glimpses, especially with contested marking, but had a very average 2018.

    He's probably similar to Hibbo then (shown glimpses but no standout) and we gave up pick 29 for him.

    I like the football/soccer rule of being cup tied - lets have a clause that Jesse cannot play against us ongoing...

    Josh Mahoney is a pro.  He will run rings around Peter Bellend.

    5&14 to me just about nails Hogan’s trade worth in my mind.

    Dr Turf just said that the 4 way trade is done and it’s just some minor details to work out.

    (2/2)“While discussions were proceeding it became clear that what Melbourne would be seeking for a trade would not be possible for our club to meet. “As such, we have informed Melbourne and Jesse’s management that we will not be continuing further with the due diligence process.”

    Who comes out on top.

    There's the real answer to relative values in all of this trading ( for me )

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.

      Round 7 is here, with the ANZAC commemoration games taking centre stage. Who are you tipping this week, and which results would be most favourable for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      Who would have imagined, when the season kicked off early last month, that Melbourne would emerge from the opening six weeks with wins over both Queensland powerhouses? At the time, Gold Coast and Brisbane were the competition’s early pace-setters, the flavours of the month, and the prospect of the Demons toppling both within the course of a fortnight seemed remote. Yet here they are, banking those scalps alongside home victories over two traditional Victorian rivals and building a quietly impressive resume.

      The Dees hit the big Friday night stage for the first and only time this season when they take on the Tigers under lights on ANZAC Eve at the G. Who comes in and who goes out?

      Before Sunday, the last time the Brisbane Lions had walked onto the turf of the Melbourne Cricket Ground, they celebrated the pinnacle of the sport - an AFL premiership secured in emphatic fashion for the second consecutive year.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      From the outset, the Casey Demons lacked any spring in their steps. They were out-hustled and out-bustled and finally outplayed by the Brisbane Lions by 38 points on their home turf in perfect conditions at Casey Fields.
