Impey trade worth

Re: Impey trade worth

You actually mean "the fact he's indigineous isn't the only reason I like him" rather than "I don't like him cause he's indigineous" don't you?

It took me a few goes to find the meaning there as well but I'm confident that's what he meant.

"I don't like him purely because he's indigenous, but I have watched him closely because I am interested by the development of indigenous players"

Sorry yes I'm Indigenous as a few on here know. I'm on school hols with the kids and had an early session with some fishing on the river earlier

I thought so. I knew you were indigineous so I kind of extrapolated what you must have meant.

There doesn't appear to be anything behind the link of Impey/Bulldogs.

Kane Cornes dismissed it this morning, saying that Port love Impey and he wouldn't be going anywhere.

Acccording to Port fans Impey's dad asked Trengove to look after him shortly before Impey's dad passed away.
I imagine the closeness of the pair is where the rumours started.

Re: Impey trade worth

Port seem open to the possibility of Impey leaving (not sure who the quote is from):

HAS JARMAN IMPEY PLAYED HIS LAST GAME FOR PORT?

“You never say never, he's certainly a player that Ken (Hinkley) likes. He's out of contract end of next year.
“We understand nature of the trade period.... If Jarman wants to go, then we'll have to look at what deals are there.”

Re: Impey trade worth

Very impressive highlights.

Big fan of Impey and hope we can land him, gives us everything we are crying out for - super quick, aggressive and a willingness to run and carry the footy.

Think he was poor this year for various reasons, namely his father passing.

Will be extremely disappointed if Hawthorn beat us to the punch here.

Hawthorn's first pick is 32 (34 after FA). Assuming they offer that, we'd have to offer our 26 (27 after FA).

As BT mentioned, right at this moment we can beat the Hawks to the punch and the fact that his good mate is most likely coming to us then that could factor into the decision.

Given the positions available currently on our list then trading for Impey could put a ruler through Crozier unless we are going to trade a player or two form our list.

I'd be happy with 6-7 turnover:

In: Impey, Trengove, Crozier, pick 9, pick 11, pick 40-50 (from Crameri), pick 80 (Smith elevation) - 7 incoming, with 3 live picks

Out: Bob, Boyd, Hamilton, Stringer, Crameri, Honeychurch, Campbell - 7 outgoing

Stringer & 11 cancel each other if there's no deal. If we can land a gun with 9, either straight or a sizable downgrade, I'd think about a 2 pick strategy.

Re: Impey trade worth

Yep, after watching that highlight package I want him. I love how he constantly backs himself to run and bounce. With how footy is played today, players that can run into space breaks open zones and creates opportunity for others. Exactly the player we need.

Now can someone post a lowlights package. Highlight packages can be deceiving.

His one handed bounces and kicking action at pace could do with work, but I'd be happy with a second rounder for him. Think we could snag a 2018 3rd or 4th back in the deal?

I would think we could get both.

Possible Outs: Stringer (potentially), Crameri (potentially), Honeychurch (potentially), Campbell (potentially), Boyd, Murphy, Hamilton.
Possible Ins: Pick 9, Pick 11, Pick 26, Pick 39, Trengove, Impey, Crozier

We have a bit to play with in terms of 7 possible outs - there may be more outside of this list too - but it does highlight to me that we cannot upgrade R. Smith to the senior list. If I had it my way, I'd delist and re-rookie and I'd also delist Lynch.

I would assume Crozier could be got on the cheap, either through a late pick or pick upgrade. I would do 26 for Impey + 47 or 66 and pass this onto Fremantle for Crozier.

Take Pick 9, Pick 11 and Pick 39 to the draft.

Seems OK to me, as you know I'd prefer that we are active each year. At the moment the indications are that we will make 5 changes or maybe 6 changes if Stringer goes. That would leave us with 2 (if 5 changes) and maybe 3 (if 6) players arriving from other clubs and 2 (if 5 changes) or maybe 3 (if 6) live picks at the draft.

Re: Impey trade worth

I’m not convinced Impey is on the move but if we can pick him up for 26, Crozier for a 3rd, Trengove as a FA and get an early pick back for Stringer then I’d be pretty happy. I’m not as convinced on the need to bring in a ruck unless we have severe doubts over Boyd or Roughead’s fitness. English will need to start playing at some point too. A 4th option after that should see us through.
