2010 Draft/Trade Resource & Discussion

[Go Swannies]

Today's rule changes resulting in only three interchange players and one subsitute has probably sounded the death knell for Vespa in any trade deal.

The rule will probably diminish his trade value considerably and not make the deal worth it, so we are better holding and seeing if he can attain the required fitness levels to play senior football and run out games. It's also going to hurt someone like Moore but could be a plus for someone like Barlow as we go back to blokes who have a big engine as the rotations off the bench comes down.

Also maybe brings Currie into play as a trade as the likelyhood that teams will only play with one specialist ruckman due to not being able to carry the extra as one of only three on the bench.

Does Moore spend much time off the ground?

Everitt looks likely to be heading interstate to Sydney or Fremantle

Bevan is exploring his options after being shocked with his omission against the Bulldogs. I'm a Bevan fan so would be sad to see him go

Sherman is keen on Bulldogs even though a big offer lies at his feet from Sydney.

Don't agree. The import of the rule I think can very easily be overstated. Put simply: no club would trade for a 21/22 yo for any meaningful value, unless it believed that he could pretty promptly make the first 18 (excepting perhaps a 2nd ruck). No-one would spend the value that we want for him, with the aim of putting him on the bench. Any club that takes him, is already taking a punt on him that he can stay out there for most of the day, without needing to take a breather every 7 minutes.

If the Bevo story's true I assume it's because he's got an offer of a regular A grade gig and not because of being dropped for one game.
Will be sad to see him go. He's a quintessential Blood, tough, fearless, an absolute Cortina.

Bevo's not a star but I love the way he goes about his footy, he's got the most out of his talent. I hope he stays on because we need a hard nut

This article says we have both Vez and Jesse up for trade. Do they just make this up? If I were the Suns, Jesse would be better value than Cloke.

Yes, they do make it up.

"Making a huge play for Brisbane's Justin Sherman to join the half-back fleet."

Stopped reading there.

AFL live chat is saying Sherman to go to Dogs. Houli said he will stay with Hird. Vez direct switch for Everitt.

Both Hawks Beaus on trade table.

John Longmire in attendance today.

You can even tune into LIVE trade radio on AFL website.

Sydney offered round 2 pick 39 for Tom Liberatore but Bulldogs have matched that with pick 40. Bulldogs offer their first round for young Wallis.

Wallis regarded as first round selection and Liberatore as Rd 2.

Swans have offered Sherman 4 year deal while Dogs have offered 3 year deal.

Wallace regarded as first round selection and Liberatore as Rd 2.

I wonder if we had genuine interest or were just forcing the Dogs to use pick 40 so we have some leverage in trying to trade for Everitt.

Just keeping them honest I suspect. It now seems routine for every father son pick.

If we are serious about Everitt it would take a player (Vesz) and a pick. Dogs would rightly drive a hard baragin because they now need some picks to either draft kids or on-trade for some of the other players they're interested in (Sherman).

The fact the Dogs are interested in Sherman will seriously clog up trade week and makes it less likely Everitt will be traded for anything other than a high pick (in my view).

Surely the other 16 teams got together to ensure that the Dogs had to bid their first 2 choices!!!

Probably a two way bet.
