2021 Trade rumours and discussion

[Booney]

Do you think the best of Finlayson would get a gig before Marshall?

I may be on my own here but I think Finlayson has a bit to offer if it all clicks for him.

Not that stats are everything but purely based on stats his 2019 & 2021 output statistically was better than Marshalls

Pretty much a much of a muchness, certainly plays more as a ruckman with the bigger rig.

Apparently Sydney's offer was Dawson and pick 12 for picks 4 & 17 (aqu from bulldogs for 23 and other later picks).

Insert 'we are laughing' gif...

Well you gotta ask I guess.

Can't blame the crows for knocking that back.

Pick 17 is probably a good deal for them. Looks like they want that pick 4 but honestly is Dawson going to be that good?

And Jesse White?

Just read this Tweet :

BICKS : "Port Adelaide have got a lot of sameness about it – Powell-Pepper, Wines. I know they want to introduce Butters and Rozee and those types… and they did bring in Karl Amon, but if it’s me I’m still looking to add another player…

“Is it Lachie Jones? Is he a player that you say, you know what, you’ve played a lot at halfback and we probably thought at some stage in your career you would move through the middle. Do we put a huge pre-season into him? He’s a big, bustling type. I’m not sure what his endurance is like…”

ROWEY: “He’s explosive. He’s another Petracca.”

BICKS: “Exactly. If you streamline him a bit, get some kilometres into him… Is he someone you start to invest in straight away and say we’re going to make a midfielder out of you?”

ROWEY: “Great idea.”

How does he have a job as a footy commentator?

Just have a look at the date when reading all this stuff

Should have recruited Jerka for half the cash (which the crows would have paid )

Stats are cool

If the Crows don't make this Dawson deal stick, or somehow wangle a deal to get Horne they are officially a joke!
If Dawson played his best footy to date away from family then how good could he be when he's settled in his hometown?

Or he gets comfortable and plays just average footy for a big wage.

Looking forward to seeing this all play out.

That isn't going to happen. There is no way North give him up.

Expecting North to give up Horne is a joke mate. Would take massive overs and you could say that about every club if they don't get him...
Dawson gets done regardless if trade or PSD.

But but but Rowey said they should

Finlayson a good get for Port IMO, reckon he has some upside and could surprise

Given we've paid somewhere around pick 50 next year for him it's a no risk trade. Also, must be said, fair play to GWS for allowing him to move with ease, obviously they didn't see him as a must keep but they didn't make Port work too hard or keep him hanging.

Suns are a joke. Good deal for Freo though

[Lightning McQueen]

Crows trade out : 23 37 44 62 66 future 4th round pick

Receive 33 75 and Melbourne future 1st


St Kilda trade out: 49

Received : 62 66 and crows future 4th


Dogs trade out : 17 75

Receive: 23 44 45


Melbourne trade out : 33 45 future 1st pick

Receive 17 37 49

Were these guys bored and played some euchre to work this shit out?

Who the hell signs off on the Freo suns deal

[Booney]

Crows trade out :

23 37 44 62 66 future 4th round pick
Receive 33 75 and Melbourne future 1st

So trade out 23 this year for probably 20 odd next year. Negligible.

Turn 37 into 33 this year. Negligible.

Turn 44,62 and 66 into 75. Perhaps small loss.

Why?

Is it one persons specific role, if so they are just keeping themselves in a job with type of trade.

Who the hell signs off on the Freo suns deal

The same people who can't have Gold Coast continually failing to deliver and going over the salary cap.
