So we are trading Daniher for Shiel?
Goddard to the Suns for one of their surplus third rounders.
Win Win. Draft pick they won’t use for a player we won’t use.
Shiel would be a top 10 player on our list. GWS would expect compensation to represent that.
Top ten?
Without wanting to be mean to our players, I think he’d be top 3.
And I have a feeling I’m being kind to us there even with that.

Top 3 midfielder, Top 5 player

How about our 2019 1st round and they can have their 2018 2nd round back.
Seems fair.

Why would we trade our CHF for Shiel?

Adelaide traded two first rounders for Gibbs.
I thought it was idiotic.
So it has proven to be.
Now they’re scrambling around trying to work out how to draft Lukosius/Rankine.
Two first rounders is almost always too much.

Fat Ed would call him Dylan Shield
Jackets said we are looking at 2 players and not Beams. I accept that Shiel is one but I suspect the other will be a Crouch brother from Adelaide

I like how Dodoro conducted last trade period.
He had multiple trade options on the go, and did a kind of reverse auction.
Whoever offers the best value first, he takes it. And it leaves him with a bit more value to offer around in later deals.
Maybe this year he weighs up Shiel, Cerra, Jack Martin, Tyson…versus the available first rounders like Hately et al…while pondering FAs like Gaff, Wallis…and he just saunters down the shopping aisle taking the best/cheapest mix he can.
In summary, multiple options helps to get good value.

I don’t see how we could afford to trade for the both of them
As many have been stating over the last few year midfielders midfielders midfielders…we actaully caught up a bit but need the topping off…now who would have thought stringer playing in the ruck daniher not playing brown as the key forward(until the coach moved hooker forward)…with the supposed new rules coming in it will mean you need even more midfielders speed up and down the ground!.
You dont need an over abundance of talls anymore.

Question for those that may have an inkling on our cap position.
How deep would we need to cut into our depth to acquire Gaff and / or Shiel?
Can’t help but feel Baguley, Long, Goddard, J Merrett, Green would all need to go getting close to 1.5m off the books.
Then I suspect 1-2 of Stewart, Hartley and / or Brown would need to be vacated.
So we would gain quality but lose depth.
I don’t come in this thread for only a few days, and all of a sudden we’re getting Gaff, Beams AND Shiel?
What the fark is wrong with you people
