Official 2008 Draft/Trade Thread

Re: Official 2008 Draft/Trade Thread

White, Boyle and co. is a waste and i would prefer punt on a kid like Boumann or Jesse Wells than payout for them.

If your keen for a punt I'm prepared to offer 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 -1 he doesn't make it.

I must agree, I'd like Hall at the Dogs for two years.

On a side issue, any word on head recruiter once Clayten leaves for GC17?

What i meant is i would rather try an unknown quantity like him with a pick than use that pick or higher on White/Boyle etc.

Sometimes you win (Lake) sometimes you lose (Wells).

15 Lovett disposals would equal about 25 from Ray

Clayton leaves after the 2 drafts and I don't think we should chase Hall to hard at all.

Why wouldn't they?

I doubt they'd be offered much better. They aren't shopping him around because he wants to leave, they're shopping him around because he's had too many indiscretions. Therefore, surely his price is not worthy of a first round draft pick.

IMO the trade would make sense. Ray moves to Essendon for greater opportunity and helps them with a bit of experience/running ability, whilst we pick up another needed ball carrier with genuine pace.

How many player for player swaps have you seen in recent times? Clubs do not want to be seen as getting the raw end of the deal so they sway towards exchanging picks as well as a player.
Lovett's upside is greater than Ray's IMHO.

From BF:

Fremantle Lose: Warnock and Campbell
Fremantle Gain: Ray and Carlton's 2nd rounder

Carlton Lose: 2nd rounder and Fisher
Carlton Gain: Warnock and Bulldog's 3rd rounder

Bulldogs Gain: Fisher and Campbell
Bulldogs Lose: Ray and 3rd rounder


Thoughts?

According to the Freo board, Warnock is worth pick 6 and Campbell is worth Ray and pick 32.

I was reading Shaun Hampson (carl) is 202cm, fastest at the club over 20m and has the highest vertical leap also.

Anyone seen much of him, and whether we would be looking at him.

He is quite a raw talent as far as I'm aware, but he can take a grab:

Agreed - that was from 2007 yeah? Hearing Grybas' voice brought back some memories....that was a real shame.

So where was Hampson all this year? I didn't see the Bullants play at all this year

I wonder what he thinks of Carlton going after Warnock to go with Kruezer?

Someone will have a crack at him for sure.

If he's any good, surely it's worth getting in his ear.
