Trade talk - from October 2024

Thanks for confirming. I wonder who they’ll target…that’s a massive investment in draft capital!

Carlton have only had pick 3 twice, selected Paddy Dow, and traded it as part of the deal to get Chris Judd (Chris Masten was selected by Eagles)

Eagles pick 3 have selected - Judd & Masten

But with a Ashcroft bid, likely expect it to be pick 4 on draft night.

Pick 4 Carlton have selected - Luke Livingston & Josh Kennedy (traded to West coast part of Judd deal)

Pick 4 Eagles - They have selected Peter Matera and Andrew Gaff, so a good selection for them. should have held onto it.

Just like if we can play out a season then we’re a top four team?

The top end is stacked, but there’s always a small chance who they select ends up a lemon.

Let’s hope it is for them, not for the lemon.

Kicked three in a grand final though.

Eagles trade 2 the other year and 3 this year.

I guess you can’t miss on your top 3 selection if you don’t take it.

I think the trade will go through.
Something would have been generally agreed, but we’re just leaving it to the last day to see if better picks can be involved.

If it doesn’t go through, it won’t be weird.
We’ve handled this well so regardless of which way it goes, we’ll come out okay out of it.

We (fans) think it’ll be weird because we ride the media narrative far too much, but once a player is at the club, the outside noise is less noticeable and it’s easier for a player to get on with things. There’s also the added benefit that the captain (and coach) rates you and would welcome you back without any grudges held.

Nothing like that.
Carlton have AA fullback.
Best young ruck in the comp.
2x Coleman medalist
Walsh is a superstar when fit.

We have none of that.

How is it Wet Toast Richmond & Gold Coast don’t just lock themselves in a room and get all their targets done.

WEST COAST
In - Baker & Bolton
Out - #3 + F2

RICHMOND
In - #3 & #6 & #13 & #23
Out - Baker & Rioli & Bolton

GOLD COAST
In - Rioli + F2 (WC)
Out - #6 & #13 & #23

Gold Coast over pay but they love it

Maybe Richmond need to throw Gold Coast some points to help even it out but seems pretty sweet for all.

Thought fark carlton were going to hold onto pick 12 & 14 and go for a small like Berry. Wont be taking him at 3

Swap F2 for 34 as they hold Brisbane F2 now. Steep price but a fair one to get to 3.

I liked that Laverde was both big bodied and undersized.

Cos the media needs something to report on.

West Coast getting bent over definitely gets headlines

That was Sheezel vs Ginbey and Hewett. Hmmm

They slow rolled the info.

Last night it was pick 12/14 and Owies for pick 3.

Then today the full details come out.

Pride Round must have a special part in your heart then.

But in all seriousness, we could try to trade Cox but I’m not sure we’d get anything for him - and he’d need to agree given he not long past signed a new contract. And Reid would be pure upside for anyone in such a trade because we most definitely would get nothing for him
