    Do you like any on their list? Ridley sounds interesting.

    We could find a compromise on Pick 11 & 47 & Ridley/Fanatsia - for - Stringer & Picks 39

    We get more than 11. They can sell it they didn't give up more than 11 with the 3rd round upgrade to our/Norths pick.

    I think you're forgetting about all of that valuable equity we got in the Crameri trade that will surely come back and help us out now?

    Are you free during trade week to handle negotiations with Essendon just in case Dodoro has a forgetful moment with us?

    Essendon won't give up Fantasia or Ridley and dealing with them will be a tough negotiation.

    Without a lot of thought I think they could offer Pick 11 and Francis for Stringer and our pick 26. Thats about as good as they would offer

    Most likely they will offer pick 11 for Stringer and our pick 26.

    We should just insist on pick 11

    Redman interests me a bit but after 2 seasons he still hasn't cracked it for a senior game with them

    We might get pick 47 from them for Crameri but we might only use 4 picks on draft night.

    Re: Stringer Trade Worth

    Well looks like he will stay then at this rate, or its early and we can play tough until the last minute and see how desperate teams get for him.
    All in our court even if it doesn't work out he will come back tail between his legs and work harder than ever.

    Silly question, should we hire Dodoro? Then it would be tough dealing with us.

    Re: Stringer Trade Worth

    Based on what people think he's worth I see no reason to trade Stringer.

    I'd rather get nothing in a years time then let him go for unders now.

    There is some merit in that position.

    I have absolutely zero confidence in us not getting rolled here, and it's mostly of our own doing. Dodoro, on the other hand, might be hard to deal with, but isn't that a good thing?

    Say we got 11 for Stringer and 47 for Crameri. That could make it interesting if Richmond are open to a points trade...

    Richmond Get: 11, 26 & 47 has a 150+ point win.

    We have 9, 15, 16 & 39. Khamis & West and our picks next year. That's a solid refresh, mini rebuild or other adjective.

    Yep. When you think about it, it like Donald Trump the businessman. You can get bankrupted by a deal, but just tell the shareholders that giving up pick 26 for Crameri (whose walked out) is a tremendous deal. I mean a truly fantastic deal the likes you've never seen before. You going to be sick of this tremendous deal it's so good. It's the likes of which the world has never seen. Believe me.

    It would be nice to have a hard edge to our trading, especially when Stringer is under contract.

    Yep. Maybe another free agent too. And then I'd allow Campbell to move (if he wanted) on for any little bit extra we could get.

    I've looked into the Richmond scenario, they won't necessarily need the points given Naish isn't likely to go top 10.
    They can get him with one of their picks and use the other for a needs based player.

    Where they might change their mind is if they are confident Naish lasts much later and there is someone at 11 they like their chances of getting.

    I think my issue with 11 straight is that it's low. I will still sleep at night, and understand Stringer has brought his own value down. Pick 11 doesn't excite me. If we can turn it into something better that's great, even if it's aggressively increasing our picks one way or another.
