Hogan is definitely gone

In fairness he was 4th after rd 16 and got injured not long after that.

The player himself doesn’t want to play reserves though.

They don’t want him

No chance he is going to the Eagles

How does what Freo pay him impact us. Who cares about his contract value

Besides Hogan, they are only turning over fringe players who are looking for more opportunity.

Might be one of the reasons we are happy to let him go. ?

They are definitely tradeable

No chance, Tyson has very little value.

It gives you a starting point. People are saying 2 first rd picks. So you would be happy to 13 and 18?

I understand the points are nonsense but it does help to really understand what has been given up in the past.

You have to remember the actual picks that were given up for those players. Lever was approximately pick 7 when looking at the points value and Gibbs was early teens I think. Adelaide definitely paid way overs on Gibbs. I would be rating Hogan and Lever the same, so I would say 4 or 5 plus a 2nd rd pick is fair value. The extra due to being in contract. There is no way we get 2 picks under 6. This was the Judd price and he was the best player in the comp. I hope I’m wrong but I thinks it’s wishful thinking on the 2 first rounders under 6.

Won’t happen. I’d say pick 5 and a 2nd rounder

Take your point it was a tad over the top but I just think if Hogan stays we lose Weed. Weed was already being courted by a couple of clubs. Granted Hogan is a better player but he also seems like he will go home at some stage, so may as well strike while the irons hot and get maximum impact.

This argument keeps coming up and it’s just stupid. Do you actually think the Weed hangs around as insurance, he will request a trade straight away. What if any club gets a serious injury to the key forward. They play with 1 key goal forward and a mid size one. Not rocket science.

In fairness the whole teams record against the better teams was poor

This is not minimum requirement. Once you get drafted you are like any other player

Out of contract, he can just walk.

Agree. He asks for a trade and everyone thinks he is Eddy Betts. Fringe player at best.

So you keep Hogan for insurance purposes?? Any team that loses a player will be hurt by it.

I’d say Kent is a 50+ pick

Early first rd for Billings, you have to be kidding. He is a 2nd rounder at best

We gave up pick 10 and 15 for Lever. This is my point
