Random Task

Guessing we're going to have to wait until 1900-1930 for the Petracca and Oliver trades.

Good bit of business by the blues.

Dees chasing Humphrey before Cameron comes in to ruin everything.

He's the quintessential project player. Massive athletic ability but footy is pretty raw and he's skinnier than Jeffo. If he makes it I wouldn't expect senior games from him for 4+ years.

Appreciate all your updates mate. I've been here a while and you've always been someone with good info. Shame it's looking highly unlikely now. Hopefully we will continue to push for him in the future even if we do face greater competition from the other vic clubs.

No apology necessary.

Just my poor attempt at humour linked to the Humphrey thread running joke where he would have had up to 50 medicals.

Was he doing a medical?

I don't actually hate this. I'd happily give up a top 4 pick next year for a 21yr old Humphrey that's proven and had some development and ready to impact. Petracca for 7, 15 and future 2nd isn't horrendous either. Get an established best 22 player with star factor and bring in two first round picks this year.

Agree 4th rounder, they can have a 5th.

Probably. I still think we should be holding onto 24 and should even be squeezing out at least a future 2nd rounder from them if we're sending them Petracca and later picks their way to match their top 5 academy picks.

9, 16, (13&16ish) plus a player plus 2nd rounder We get 7, 8 (11 &12) no player and send them the most valuable second rounder there is.

IMO Gold Coasts offer for Petracca is looking weaker with Hawthorn and Sydney's alleged offers for their respective trades. Can only add pressure on them hopefully.

Is this baileys 2nd or 3rd medical now? Are there juicy tax deductions in performing medicals or something?

What are they imploding about? It looks like they'll keep Humphrey and get Petracca..

Robey perhaps?

Just doing my part to get this thread to 200 pages.

A forward that leads at the ball carrier.

My guess is Oliver and 42 for 35 and f3. 35 and 28 and Petracca to the Suns for 7 and 8. We keep 24 and flip it into future picks on draft night.

Sounds more likely he'll stay at the Swans but an article on the afl website states there were 'murmurs' of him considering a move to Victoria. 25yr old defensive mid. Wouldn't be a bad get in my opinion given we're losing quite a bit of midfield talent.

I think you're probably right

Sadly agree. No sense paying half his wage for 5 years for a pick we'll probably not use or just throw to Gold Coast anyway. Future 3rd and approx 300kpa is far more palatable.

24 = 621 28 + 41 = 725 Would rather them take our later selections and let us use 24 how we see fit.

This umpiring seems very one-sided
